Wish him well, he has seemed to be really struggling the past month or so via social media.

Yes...but not one that you mentioned. That onside kick made my week! Just like the good ol' days! But with better athletes. I was a Bo skeptic but now I'm a huge fan!

You're so nice @Charles Fischer even when I'm giving you a hard time for not liking the Duck egg unis! Another reason this is my favorite spot (pun intended) to talk about OBD. Thank you!

The kids eat it up! So I love it! Getting those recruits excited is what it's about!

Got my wish!
I hope this isn't considered trolling Mr. Fishduck

Still shaking my head at the "illegal receiver downfield" with nothing on the replay.

I'm going to be the lone voice here, yes I liked them and thought they looked fantastic on my big screen. Thought the helmet looked fantastic & tied the look together well. Didn't notice the long tee shirt until above comments. I loved the black green "nightmare green" last year but as mentioned above the new fabric/recolor looks brown, we're not Beavers. In fact "Black Green" is the custom color on my house trim. I also love the Stormtrooper look so don't @me
I'm just a fashionista Duck Gal!
PS bring back the Eggshell!!!!

That was one impressive game. The BYU defense is stout & they play as a team on both sides of the ball, the team looks united, focused, disciplined & very well coached. Our beloved Ducks must be well prepared for a huge challenge when the Cougars roll in Saturday.

Glad her symptoms were much milder than this quad-vaxxed Duck loving person. I wore a mask the minute I felt a scratchy throat because I knew I may have been exposed (this variant is harder to get a positive OTC test result--BinaxNow worked well for me). I didn't transmit it to others, so that's a win! Hugs for full recovery and hopefully no Long Covid or complications. Thank you for caring about your FishDuck Flock!

Why have I been sulking alone when I could've been sulking here with all of you?!
Who knows how all of the variables will play out, at least we can commiserate when Our Beloved Ducks win & celebrate the wins! Thanks Charles.

There truly is no explanation.
Hanging our hats on, AB gives us the best chance to win, is okay on a week to week basis. So the coaches are telling us that the 3 young QB's didn't develop enough from spring ball to December 3rd, to get a start?
Okay, fair enough. But you're telling me they didn't develop enough to get more than a smattering of game time plays? Or none at all?
Here's my bold take away........
You coaches are either terrible judges of talent (that can happen) or you lack the talent and ability to develop one, two or three.....
Since Marcus departed and the gift of Justin was squandered please coaches, name me one QB you developed.
I am all ears.............
Coach Lanning appears to be building the staff that can teach and coach all the players.......
Dear Santa please bring Oregon football team the best QB coach available........
Honey have you mailed my Christmas gift wish list off to Santa yet? Got one more wish to add.
About that QB Coach wish, what about Chris Miller? I am totally biased since he was my high school and college star QB before he was in the NFL... Thoughts?

Charles, great food for thought......
As I read this article, still wiping my sleepy eyes, I realized a few things at 4:30 am. My thoughts will probably not sit well with the diehards. I apologize in advance....
It wasn't Christmas Eve, after all. So I ate the cookies I left out for Santa. Guess the wife was right, again.
I got that same bitter taste in my mouth after reading your superb article. The same bitter taste I get from all your articles pertaining to the MC Era offense. The same bitter taste after watching the offense under perform.
How could a coach who loves football and supposedly loved Oregon (debatable for sure) methodically destroy the beauty of the Oregon offense? Recognize that beauty and still break it to pieces?
How could I have been so deceived?
I was sold hook line and sinker....
Yet, I sat and watched the slow, methodical killing. And still believed what I heard over what I saw.
Worse, how did super talented youngsters watch games with their eyes and then be sold by the empty promises from MC. Not the only sales pitching HC to do this.
Then it struck me! This salesmen brought 3 of Oregons top recruiting talent to the field. MC deserves very little credit for those 37 wins. The youngsters, coupled with their superb talent, deserve the lions share of credit. MC had coached them down. They succeeded in spite of the coach speak and in game weaknesses......
All those wins, PAC crowns and the Rose Bowl win kept the con alive. The zenith of the con was in the shoe. Nothing was held back in every aspect of the game. A thing of beauty. For a con man, the cherry on top of the whipped cream . My faith was restored. Maybe yours, too
Then everything fell flat, game after game. The team was not the same. What the hec. The new con was in play. All the illusion, the emptiness of 37 wins had paid off......
The dream job came calling. The con man could go home........
Sorry for the rant. Charles and many on this forum saw this happening. They called MC and the different OC's out in articles and post. Yet I still believed the illusion because of the results.
Now that bitter taste has turned to indigestion. Down right stomach ache. Not sure if it was from the cookies or pondering on MC 's offense and empty words.
Can't be the cookies. Hec I have downed a dozen cookies before. Many times and no indigestion.....
Just had to thank you for the entertainingly truthful read!

Despite what he said in the interview it appears McClendon is headed to Miami. Rather tacky of the U to let it out this way IMO.
Just saw something about this on Nemec's Twitter. So he's going to run the game like Mario, let us lose, and nab our players on his way out?! The Alamo is looking disastrous on several fronts.

Ducks hire a slimeball like Urban Meyer & I'll become an NFL junkie. Something like that does not fit our University culture.

I think the players leadership having representation upon the decision is fantastic and with long precedent at UO. I was a part of decision making within the university as a student leader as well as part of an advisor group to the President, that was long ago. We want another hire that players want to play for! But one who can help them reach their potential, whatever they're role.

Fentress has his haters but I've always felt like he tells it like he sees it, and is right about weaknesses much of the time.
