Succeeding as a high level D1 QB is so much more than just slinging the rock. Working the system, managing your personnel on the field and reading the defense is of greater importance. The Oregon coaching staff at some point knew that TT would never be 'the guy'. I think most Duck fans only wish him the best and hopefully he will play important minutes for Tulane this year.

I know that last year Fearless Leader Fishduck wisely elected to have OBD stand down on the Prime criticism, but Sanders and Colorado have opened themselves up to a new round of ridicule for this stunt. It ain't cheating if it's a good old fashioned beating.

Coachspeak has produced so many but the worst is: "One game at a time"... The only time this isn't true is with chess.

The term 'safe standing areas' says it all. Chirping from the handful of UCLA students draws a brief turnaround and baleful glare from a couple of Duck players.. After a collective entitled gasp from the students, the chant begins: "2,4,6,8 We'll sue if you retaliate" Followed by feverish texting and social media posting about the threatening brutality of the Oregon football team. An attempt at a tent city on the 50 yardline takes two days and a court injunction to resolve. Ducks win by forfeit after leading 35-0.

I can only imagine what those after game parties were like..

On Oregon's entire roster Feldman couldn't find a second top 100 freak athlete? No Sadiq, Conerly or Stewart? Did Devon Jackson suddenly get weaker and slower? Good thing it is a team game.

Yep, McAfee is like Skip Bayliss in the charmless blowhard and 'who gives a crap what he thinks' department. I'm still smiling over his hyping up of Utah on GameDay last fall before Oregon took them apart in Rice-Eccles. To his credit, McAfee took his lumps for the misfire. That said, the 'interview' with The Duck (RIP Puddles) was a fun watch.

Seems as though there is a bit of buyer's remorse down in La-La Land. The sugar high of landing Riley and gloating over that 'victory' to Oregon fans has long worn off. The recent shellacking of Riley by E(SEC)PN shill Paul Finebaum can't be helping either.

I think that since Bair was part of the 2024 class, he will be here in 2026 after his two year mission. Provided everyone sticks around, scary to think that Dallas Wilson and Dakorian Moore will have already been in the program for a year when Bair joins that WR room. Not sure who will be chucking the rock to them yet, but in a perfect world Dante Moore redshirts this year, breaks out in 2025 and leads Oregon to a NC in 2026.

Report: Minnesota Vikings rookie Khyree Jackson dies in auto accident - On3 WWW.ON3.COM Per report, former Oregon, Alabama cornerback and Minnesota Vikings rookie... Details of the horrendous accident that also claimed the lives of two of Khyree's high school teammates. I feel for the police officers that had to make that discovery and notify the families. I spent 30 years on the trauma center end of these awful catastrophes and had a belly full of it: the finality of a few bad decisions, one too many drinks and the conceit that if you are young, you are invincible. The moment you know that there is nothing that can be done in the operating room to change the outcome. The family in the waiting room that you deliver the worst news possible to. I'm not saying anyone is necessarily at fault here, but there is no easy way to stomach these things.

Truly awful news. Happened in his Maryland hometown late last night. Apparently confirmed by his mother to TMZ after she received the most dreaded 4am call possible. Don't yet know the details, but nothing good ever happens in a car after midnight on a long weekend. Sad day for all. Such a waste. RIP Khyree.

Au contraire to the U$C fan's declaration. In our heart of hearts we of OBD will never tire of, nor limit our enjoyment of Oregon's curb-stomping, birch-slapping and rent-free occupation of the cranial vaults of the Troyboys. I for one have decades of built up schadenfreude when it comes to the University of Spoiled Children. An itch that I have only begun to scratch.

I went to that 1994-5 season Rose Bowl game. Aside from the final score it was an incredible experience. My then wife gave me this jacket for my following birthday. It is really well constructed with leather sleeves and serious weight. I still wear it for games that will be cold and dry. I get some admiring looks and comments at those games, mainly from old-timers like myself. That marriage didn't age well but that jacket sure has.

2022 college football coaching carousel grades: Lincoln Riley an 'A+' with Brent Venables an 'A-' replacement - CBSSports.com WWW.CBSSPORTS.COM Dennis Dodd grades each team for their hires during the college football offseason Remember this take from Dodd in 2022? Lincoln Riley to USC......A+ Mari(no)0 Cristobal to Miami.....A Dan Lanning to Oregon.....B Some had the hire as low as a C+ Some takes just don't age well.

I have found that when it comes to expressing an uninvited opinion about politics, Biden my time and deferring will always Trump opening my big fat mouth.

The TV coverage of the trials yesterday was first rate. Great camera angles of the track and the athletes with incredible perspectives of the Hayward architecture. The Swoosh and University of Oregon logos prominently displayed. Motion cameras that followed the runners on the straight and at the tape. All state of the art. Also several overhead views, presumably drone, that showed the McKenzie/Willamette rivers on a beautiful day. Talk about advertising to the sports world and any prospective recruit that Eugene is a great place to be and the U of O is at the pinnacle for facilities. Go Ducks!

Heard they are making a movie about this. They are calling it: "Coachless in Seattle"

College football teams with most Top247 signees: Georgia, Oregon boast nation's best 2024 freshman classes 247SPORTS.COM These recruiting powerhouses are set up for success in 2024 and beyond. Georgia led the pack with 18. Oregon next with 15 and tops in the B1G. Better than every SEC team not called the Bulldogs as well. Ohio St at #4 with 12. Pretty well established that you don't win a NC without a blue chip roster. Those other ex-Pac12 teams that were prematurely gloating about Oregon losing their coach to Bama? U$C.......6 Fusky........0, Zip, Nada, Bupkis

One or two broken strands of DNA and they become the Oregon State Nutria.

I'm certain that Fusky will embrace their newfound B1G academic and recruiting prowess by proudly declaring: "We are the Rutgers of the West!"

Not to nitpick, but I believe Ducked has it right, the listed players are the all-portal team. I'd be interested in seeing a preseason all-B1G offense. I would imagine Gabriel, TFerg, Conerly or Cornelius, Tez and Stewart would be strong candidates.

Ok, so the pitching didn't deliver when it needed to. Yeah, this sucks and I figured heading into the 7th that Oregon would tie the series and the rubber match tomorrow would be a toss up. Do not forget TA&M is a very good team, #3 if I'm not mistaken, and Oregon put 9 runs on them today. Not many teams have done that to them. Waz got the Ducks to the super regional two years in a row. Getting tanked by Oral Roberts at home last year actually bugged me more than getting bull rushed by a superior Aggie team on their home field this weekend. Oregon is 🤏 close to getting to the CWS. I like the odds of it happening once the Ducks get to the B1G. Give the SEC it's due, they will likely have half of the teams in Omaha. But I will keep the da*n faith as far as OBD are concerned.

Holy moly, that got a bit edgy once Seitter hit 115 pitches and then he had the corners filled. Talked Waz and the pitching coach into letting him finish. That was a helluva performance!

UCSB beat USD 4-2 in the elimination round and the Gauchos will meet the Ducks at 6pm in the championship game. Oregon gets two shots to win one and move on to a super regional. Sir Charles FD noted that Seitter will be on the hill as the starter. The pen is full of healthy arms. Just keep the free passes down and let the boys in the box limber up the timber. Go Ducks!

Ordinarily this below Journalism 101 level article wouldn't receive much attention on OBDF, but it is the off-season and we do need something to chuckle about. I would say that it was largely AI generated but I give AI more credit than what this word salad exhibits. It does illustrate the concern that Oregon's entry into the B1G has generated with the tOSU fanbase. This kind of unenlightened drivel comes when a biased writer (I use the term writer loosely) starts with the 'let's diss Oregon' headline and then superficially cherry-picks the facts they need to make other Columbus homers happy. Oregon has been living rent free in Trojenz's head for years and now it appears they are tunneling into Buckeye craniums as well. All the more reason to make Autzen on October 12 a bad place to be for them.
