Spring Game Review from Georgia 24/7 Reporter
If you are a 24/7 VIP subscriber, check out Jordan D. Hill's article on the Dawgs 24/7 site. Otherwise, here is a summary of some of his observations.... QB play: one thing that stood out was how much play-action the Ducks ran when No. 10 was on the field. Will that be the case come September? Who knows, but it will certainly be something to watch out for. On the whole he looked good, though the pick sure does feel like the type of mistake he made far too often in three years at Auburn. Nix’s running ability is a key part of his game, but that aspect of his play wasn’t on display based upon the QB rules they were playing RB play: I what I saw from Noah Whittington. Other players mentioned: Seven McGee; Chase Cota deserves a shoutout; DJ Johnson is a Duck you’ll want to remember come September. In regard to 9 sacks: a big part of the issue was that what would have been the starting offensive line was split between the two teams, combined with the QBs’ inability to really scramble to keep plays alive leads me to tell Georgia fans to take those sacks allowed with a grain of salt. In all: Multiple receivers capable of making plays and a defense with some impressive players.

That's retail. With his endorsement deal and figuring in the actual cost of manufacturing, more like $100.00.

Where Does the Future Lie at QB For Oregon?
Nix #1. #2 is close enough that I hope neither Ty nor Jay enter the portal. Should be a great battle for #2 spot the rest of this year and then for #1 next year. If either enter the portal, good luck to them and more reps for the now unanimous #2. Ty's review of himself after the game. Spot on.

Official Spring Game Thread!
QB takeaways: #1 Nix is #1; #2 Too close to call which I hope means both Ty and Jay stick around to battle for #1 next year after a full year in Dilingham's system. #3 Based upon the non-contact aspect of QB play, we weren't able to see much in the way of rollouts or options. So that may have something to do with the final priority.

Three New Rules for CFB This Year
NCAA college football rules panel approves changes to targeting rule, faking injuries WWW.ESPN.COM In an effort to clarify things regarding injuries, the NCAA playing rules oversight panel approved three measures Wednesday that will take effect in 2022. No. 1 Targeting, sounds reasonable. Hopefully ESPN junked their #3 truck so there will be replay at those venues. No. 2 Fake injuries, I think any injury should require the player to sit the rest of the series. Otherwise, the player with an NIL for the bottom of his cleats will abuse the rule 😇 No. 3 Does the tackle box move with a rollout?

Just How Clueless is Taggart?
Inadmissible for the punitive damage claim, yet impeaches Taggart's testimony/lies: Gold claimed to have performed “dawn patrol” workouts four times and those 6 a.m. exercises involved “having a 45-pound plate and pushing it 20 yards and back 20 times.” Is in direct contradiction of Taggart’s testimony from Friday morning. Taggart said that although he brought back “dawn patrol” workouts at Florida State and that they continue at Florida Atlantic, the measures he views as for “discipline (and) accountability” and not punishment now involve pushing five-pound bags rather than the much heavier, round weighted plates typically used on barbells. Gold said he “never experienced” a dawn patrol exercise using a five-pound bag. I know who I believe, and he never coached at Oregon.

Four Takes on USC in 2022
Trojan fans should set their sights on a 10-win season as the goal but be willing to settle for 9-3. -- Tom Fornelli Anything less than a New Year's Six bid should be viewed as a disappointment. -- Barrett Sallee Riley deserves a season to get his sea legs underneath him, but quickly becoming a dark-horse contender for the Pac-12 -- and College Football Playoff -- isn't out of the question. -- Shehan Jeyarajah Riley should have the Trojans immediately back to the top of a watered-down Pac-12. This team should either be in the CFP or snubbed in favor of a team with a similar résumé from a more reputable conference. -- David Cobb I think this is great, kinda hard to overachieve with these reviews. And, all the more reason to stay away from the water in so Cal.

Nice Bio and Article About Lanning
