Oregon's and Utah's Conference Records Since Pac-12 Began
It is amazing the difference how these schools have dealt with Stanford and Washington.

Someone's WAYYYY Too Early Top 25
I agree. But, it did give me something to read on a really slow work day. Clicked... and baited!

Canzano: Nothing Like the Electricity of Football
That was a fun read. Unfortunately, watching electric football is like watching a Mario coached team.

Another LOI? Predictions Trending for Ashton Porter to Oregon
Let me restructure your sentence: The past regime prioritized stars over evaluation for recruiting buzz and regional bragging rights.😁

On3 Grades For Coaches in Year 1
I mostly agree. But not sure how Mario gets a passing grade. I guess he did have good attendance.

Oregon’s New Will Stein Offense: TemPro With the Pistol?
It'll be fun to be able to take my hand gestured pistol and shoot targets again. With Cristobal I seemed to always be pointing it at the side of my head.

Final Depth Chart of 2022 for Bowl Game: How Many of THESE Leave?
Looking over the chart... I didn't realize we had a walk on RB from Dripping Springs TX. Hopefully he will help our new QB get acclimated next year.

Do YOU Want DJ Uiagalelei as a Transfer QB from Clemson?
If the coaches feel there is a scholarship available for DJ it means there is a need for DJ. I'll leave it in their hands.

Byron Cardwell Signs with CAL.
No hard feelings. Byron will always be a Duck in my eyes. He did well for us when we wanted him. The new staff just never really seemed to want him. I wish him well.

Bowen Signs With Sooners
I've heard that his girlfriend goes to OU. He is young that can be very magnetic at that age.

To Think...We COULD Have Had Justin Wilcox Recruiting!
Sounds like he is at his dream job!

To Think...We COULD Have Had Justin Wilcox Recruiting!
You are correct! My bad. I'm SO GLAD IT DIDN'T HAPPEN! No thanks to Mullens!

To Think...We COULD Have Had Justin Wilcox Recruiting!
I respect Joey and his enthusiasm for the Ducks. But, I'm sure glad Mullens did not listen to the noise his letter created.

Noah Sewell is Off to the NFL
Always a Duck! Thanks Noah and the entire Sewell family.

Dan Lanning: Best First Year Recruiting Class for ANY Oregon HC?
Charles, I can see by using the measurables described how you would put Coach Lanning's first class comparable (possibly higher) than previous first year coaches. But, I look at it a bit differently. What really stands out for me was Coach Lanning did this by matching players to his (the team's) needs and his values. Often times I felt MC chased star ratings rather than fit. So, MC's classes look better than they actually were. Coach Lanning has the same (or near) star ratings with players that fit the needs of the team. For this reason I feel he far surpasses ANY other coach in Oregon history. I for one could not be happier with this group of recruits and transfers. WELL DONE COACHES!!!

It's Official - Dante Moore Flipped to UCLA
I hire both. But, always through a temp agency. After three months I either bring them onto my payroll or hand them back to the temp agency. Unfortunately, college athletics isn't as simple as my little business.

Transfer Portal vs. HS Recruiting
I don't like it. Feels more like pro sports than college. But, I can definitely see schools that have a tough time recruiting (like OSU and WSU) considering it. Until the rules change... use them to your advantage.

People are Pretty Selfish: Should I Continue the OBD Forum?
I, too, noticed the lack of political statements in November on this site. This proves the site (and its rules) garner respect and that your hard work has paid off. Unfortunately, while we all were able to refrain from stating our politic views, many were unable to refrain from expressing their frustration of losing to our two most hated rivals. The one thing EVERYONE on this forum has is passion for our Ducks. Passion can bring out the best in people. But, passion with a keyboard in hand, often explodes into a heaping pile of excrement. No one person should have to shovel through that themselves. I'm so glad you have the moderators to help you and sincerely hope the web developer comes up with some code that eases your pain. We all appreciate this forum and ALL you do to provide it for us. Thank you.

What If Lanning Hired An Extremely Controversial DB Coach?
Sorry, I would rather be disappointed in our DBs than have Lake associated with our Ducks.
-
Bowl Game Question: More Important to Go For Win With Nix OR See What Ty Thompson Has to Offer?
100% agree. Hopefully the game is well intact and Ty can come in the whole 4th quarter. He needs to have access to all the plays and needs to be pushed to keep scoring. No sticking him in to burn the clock.

On This Day: Mario Cristobal Left Ducks for Miami a Year Ago Today
My guess 6-6 possibly 7-5. But, I guaranty it would have been very boring and very frustrating.

Portal Losses "Not Surprising," and Encouraged
I believe DJ was told he needed to declare for the draft or he would have to face punishment. It made his decision VERY easy.

Transfer Portal: A Listing of Ducks Who Have Entered
Especially when you figure he'll be kicked out for at least one half for every game. He'll make great money for the actual time played.

Justin Flowe to the Transfer Portal
Justin Flowe had that intensity that is fun to watch. But, no one on this team made me say "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING" more often than him. He has the athleticism of the college game. But, the game was to fast for his mind. That crazy look we always saw in his eyes often seemed more like confusion than intensity. I hope he goes to a smaller school and that it allows the game to slow down for him. He just needs more time.

Good for Utah! The better program won. Congrats Ute fans.
