I agree with you, Charles, this to me is the improvement from last year that we need: "To me, the additions in the portal by Dan Lanning have been astounding, and it has been hard to believe he could attract this many in such a short time. The portal transfers transformed the Oregon offense in 2022, and we will see a similar jump in performance from our defense in 2023." Nothing wrong with being a homer. Especially when we see all the additions to the defense. I always look through my Duck Fan glasses. If you don't go into every game expecting to win you're defeating yourself. 12-0 !!! Thanks for giving us something to ponder on! Let the games begin! Go Ducks!

Try this one - much better!

Fantastic! Thanks Pennsylvania Duck. Team getting ready for football...

I can agree that this isn't as good as previous videos. My enjoyment comes from the actual game of football during the season. I would watch the Ducks whether they played Georgia or Portland State. My reason for posting was football is coming. I can't wait until off season is over! One more week. "Welcome to Autzen Stadium..." is music to my ears!

One week fans! Oregon Football 2023-2024 is coming! Enjoy - Go Ducks!

Thanks Coach Eric for bringing these analysis articles to help us understand the Will Stein offense. It takes a lot of time and research. Your efforts are appreciated. I know many Duck fans will be leary of seeing QB Bo run between the tackles. But I like the 3 options. I can see this as a good play for QB Thompson and other back ups to use. Easy to count defenders and then execute. I hope he chooses plays for Thompson that are not only safe but give him a chance to utilize his athletic talent. I can see him attacking the defense with this draw.

Duck Duck Duck Duck... You ARE a real DUCK Fan! And always will be wherever you live! Thanks for all the gifts you've provided for Duck fans everywhere. Go Ducks!

All the player videos are great to watch. Thank you PD for all your posts! The Running Back room is loaded! Coach Locklyn is a terrific mentor.

Thanks Mr. FishDuck for your analysis! Your use of the screenshot and video clip is superb. They make the teaching of the concept so much easier to understand. Duck fans appreciate the time and effort it takes to bring us the details of the Mint defense Coach Lanning brought to Oregon. It's been a long off season and football games are coming. Oregon Duck football is back. Go Ducks!

Excellent play Coach Eric, thank you for bringing this to us! I always have liked a two back set. Cross buck action to confuse linebackers is golden. The linebackers are so worried about the run action the right WR is wide open after he takes 5 steps. Poor eye discipline by the DB's. Looks like all defenders anticipated run and were caught by surprise.

Mudslide accidentally posted this in the 2025 commitments. Moved it to the 2024 for him. Ryder Hayes, 2024 quarterback, commits to Oregon Ducks WWW.OREGONLIVE.COM An unranked prospect out of Grandview, Texas, Hayes committed to the Ducks on Saturday as a preferred walk-on

Can anyone summarize the article for those who do not subscribe to Canzano? Thanks!

BigGameBoomer, my only comment is B.S. (bull stuff). Stanford hasn't been relevant for running backs since McCaffrey. The boring Shaw offense; throw the ball to a tall tight end is more like Stanford not RBU.

Mike West "It seems to me the better route would be to ensure OBD schedule USC and UCLA as often as possible." I can understand your point, and it has merit in regards to competition and big names. However in my opinion, I personally would hope no PAC team ever schedules the traitors. Make them travel to BIG country to get a game!

It's nice to see Jackson Powers-Johnson and Josh Conerly Jr. get some love! They will be anchors on a good Oregon line.

Excellent analysis Charles! J. Bassa executed the blitz like it was a drill in practice against a standing bag. Bassa will have the speed and technique to get many more this year. I watched the media day interview with Jeffrey and Bo. I do believe that Jeffrey has put on some more muscle mass since last year. His arms, shoulders, and calves seemed to look ready to bust the seams of his suit jacket and pants! He is one awesome linebacker. By the way, watch #3 Dorlus bring held by the left tackle. He gets to the QB a split second after Bassa. I agree with HappyToBeADuck and Haywarduck - let chaos run supreme things are looking up for the Lanning defense!

Only the very first few paragraphs are visible for non-subscribers. lownslowav8r can you summarize the rest of TBE article for us? Sounds like Canzano has some good thoughts.

Thanks David for today's article! Isn't it a wonderful problem to have - too much talent in the RB room! I agree with Log Hauling. "If one of the underclassmen can pry snaps from Bucky and Noah, this problem just gets more wonderful." I've always believed in fresh legs. Late in a game, when the defense is not fresh, a fresh RB can make a difference. T.I.L. Trust In Locklyn. Coach earned my trust last year! "Next Man Up" is better when that man has talent. Coach Lanning, Coach Stein, and Coach Locklyn are recruiting talented running backs. The Ducks are better for their efforts and are blessed!

Thanks Coach Eric for another glimpse of Will Stein's offense! Knowing the ability of Josh Conerly to catch passes you could also go tackle eligible with him doing the Slip route. More trickery. Love it.

Happy birthday Charles! And Happy Independence Day to all Duck fans! Grilled hamburgers for us.

I will be happy when Traveler (USC horse) is gone and no more dead horses to beat!

If Coach Locklyn wants him so do I. Good vision, quick feet, quick to the hole using his blockers well, and strong leg drive! I trust Coach!

😓🙏

Thanks Alex, it's always great to read about our Duck football players. I agree with you, "Fortunately, I don’t think we need to wait until 2024. I see the next Thibodeaux-esque players as already being on the Ducks’ roster." After watching the Spring game I came away impressed with the improvement in all areas of the defense. Jordan Burch #1 will have immediate impact on Pac-12 offenses! He looked NFL ready. I was also impressed with all the coverage by the secondary contesting passes and making tight windows difficult to pass into. We will see a much improved Coach Lanning defense this season. Go Ducks!

Thanks Coach Eric, I'm always excited when I see an article from you. Great info on the pre-snap read. Bo chooses the correct read. Even though the high safety favored the right #5 Holden easily beats his man and is also open. The safety would have helped but would've been behind also. The Ducks this year will have multiple receivers who can "Go" deep. Not too many defenses have 4 NFL type db's. Someone "Will" be open in Will Stein's offense!
