QUAAACK: Sheldon QB Brock Thomas is a Duck
McDuck replied to Pennsylvania Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
The NCAA limits roster size to 105 players until the first game or the start of classes after which it increases to either 115 or 125 (NCAA rules are difficult to find). Scholarships are limited to 85 so the vast majority of D-1 teams will have between 20 to 40 non-scholarship players each year. Although it is possible for a walk on to perform well enough to earn a full ride is is extremely rare, those that rise to stardom are few and far between. There is a reason everybody knows Stetson Bennet was a walk on---it is a story that is newsworthy, certainly not the norm. Maybe Brock Thomas will defy astronomical odds but I think it highly unlikely. -

Transfer Portal: Players of Interest
McDuck replied to Pennsylvania Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Interesting timing for Keanu Williams, the portal window closes Wednesday and doesn't reopen until May. Is a player allowed to sign outside the authorized portal dates? -

The 247 link in the original post lists him as a walk on. -
Although many of the guidelines on NIL are set by state laws generally performance based incentives are prohibited. 'Pay to Play' is still technically against the rules.

Another 5* Enters Portal, Has Lanning Connection
McDuck replied to Haywarduck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Some comments on Georgia boards that he reportedly almost left mid-season due to home sickness. Seems several posters expect him to end up at one of his home state Florida schools. Committed to Ohio State then changed his mind a few months later. Enrolled at Georgia and changed his mind a few months later. A true freshman is just a kid so not surprising. -
Excellence with humility, a combination that is all to rare in this day and age. The story was great and the subject even better.

Cam McCormick Enters Transfer Portal

Maybe, but with all the pain he endured and the effort he gave to rehabilitate himself from multiple injuries I seriously doubt that is the case -

Sorry to see him leave but I can't be mad at the young man, he gave his all for the team. Maybe Oregon doesn't offer a doctorate program in his chosen field? -

It doesn't say what position but a blurb from Football Scoop Oregon: Dante Bartee, who spent last season as the defensive coordinator at Ottawa University (NAIA - KS), has accepted a position as a defensive assistant with the Ducks.

Fiesta Bowl Game Thread: Michigan vs. TCU
McDuck replied to OregonDucks's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Hmmm, a 76 yard touchdown to a 6'4", 215 lb WR with 4.4 speed. Aren't we discussing a potential recruit with similar assets? -

Sonny Dykes was fired by Cal Berkeley because he didn't win. Look at him now. Maybe Wilcox doesn't get the credit he is due. -
What to Expect from a Will Stein Lead Ducks Offense
McDuck replied to FishDuck Article's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
Is Harbor an outstanding football player or a freakish athlete who happens to play football because he is really to big to be a track sprinter? I'm not talented enough to evaluate film highlights.
