Also, did he imply the Utes play in Provo? 🤣

I dunno, they lost a lot of good D to NFL/graduation. If the QB is still out (ACL) which is a strong possibility, and Nix and company are hot...we can sure win that one. Our own D has nowhere to go but up...it all starts with line pressure, which will make a rebuilt secondary much better to offset the veteran losses, but we've got some good talent coming in too. LB in the Lanning D is the biggest ? to me.

Hope for the best for all these guys. That said, I'm really excited for what's coming in. Now, probably need the portal to get some depth and experienced veterans. The guys leaving never really produced, for whatever reason.

6 commits, 6 states.

They schedule these way in advance. aTm chickened out on us, and we did get tOSU but didn't get the home end because of some virus. At the horseshoe, who won? But yeah right now the future ooc could use a little more flavor. Then again, the SEC schedules mostly patsies, with a 4th ooc mega-patsie the week before big rivalry week, almost like a bye the week before their big games. That said, we need the dough, the SEC doesn't. Their formula is schedule patsies and they win most of the natty's. But, they don't need the dough.

It's a private university in St. Charles (of Fishduck fame?) Missouri

Lindenwho???

Yeah, smells like Kim Mulkey is drumming up the NIL for her

Other guards are seniors or Roger's is going pro, but it's interesting the #1 class of all 5-stars, only TeHe lasted, and now she's gone. Something has been off. Sabrina was larger than we realized and we all know how big she was?

Ball security

Why are the mutts hosting? We were a 1 seed, were there two 1 seeds in the "group"? Gi Ducks

5 stars don't always excel immediately. Kelel Ware is another example. If Ware can play a 4 (seems he can) and Bittle the 5, we could be in for a fun season next year if everyone can stay healthy. I see Shelstad as a day one starter at point. A good defender who can score in the paint to come off the bench for the bigs would be nice. Doesn't have to be a 3 point threat, although Bittle is and Ware seems to be capable. The NBA big man trend is now a 3 point threat. I think our backcourt will be deep if healthy. The 3 spot will be the biggest ? with Guerrier graduating. With 2 strong bigs another 3-type wing won't need as much size perhaps. Now if Graves can just get the women's team to gel

The portal makes it possible to get the D players needed for the 4-2-5, I'm optimistic recruits and transfers next fall will see some major improvement and maybe your timeline moves up a good year or so. If the O-line and QB development can stay on track, maybe the D will catch up, and we'll be playoff bound even sooner. Fingers Crossed.

Hey Charles JC's articles are usually free you can just post the link, unless something changed

I still can't believe Mr Knight hasn't prioritized a world class indoor facility.

"Since 2011, Oregon's 64 wins in the month of March are the third-most in the country."

I don't think you can sign an LOI until you are a senior?

I've been saying this for a while, the coach is a great recruiter but I don't think his X and O strategies are quite that great. He pulled in a phenomenal class that year and Sabrina... I don't think people realized just HOW good she was and with Ruthie who wasn't even rated that high turned, out to be phenomenal and then you add Satou...and Erin Boley...too much for opposing defenses. He brings in another insane #1 class, and a year later TeHe is the only one left. The kids like him, great guy, phenomenal recruiter. Can't coach?

Hey, the Washington Huskies, in all sports, are 64-0 against Oregon the last 2 years, look it up. Purdue is 17-0 against Oregon in that span. Florida State, 19-0. My UTEP Running Rebels...4-0. Nike just dropped the Ducks, BTW

Wow

All 4 good points, but Secondary stars will be made from a much improved pass rush. The latter is a huge key for this team and I like you put it number one. Also, I know they haven't played a down yet at Oregon and you mentioned none of them, probably as they are unproven, whether true freshman or transfers, but those two groups will play a huge role in '23...they will have to, especially on Defense.

This whole discussion may be moot because no charges were filed gun or not. FWIW if you have a CHL in Oregon a public school's "ban" on guns carries no legal weight. That goes for Universities and elementary schools alike. BYU can ban premarital sex and guns alike as they are a private university on private property.

I don't think it's political, UO should be upholding the laws the same, particularly as a public university. The constitution is no exception. The fact the DA dropped everything is telling.

Altman is good, injuries and chemistry, not his best roster or transfers this year. Hopefully a one-off. Women's team? Is it time for a change? Graves is a great recruiter but I've always heard grumbling about the Xs and Os. The class of five 5 stars disintegrated in a year. The talent vs production must be among the lowest in D1? I don't think we realize HOW good Sabrina really was, and with Ruthie...way better in college than her high school rank, then Satou. Erin Boley was great in their shadow, not so much after they left...too much for any defense. Graves reminds me of another great recruiter that players love...I think he's a coach at Miami now?
