Kickers Deserve Scholarships, Too
Good point, could come into play somewhere, but I think it's a good idea nonetheless and figure out how to keep it from being abused

They won't Admit it, but Somebody is Watching these Bowl Games
That Army-Mizzou game tonight was quite fun to watch, actually, exciting finish

247 Recruiting Rankings
I think this new staff will pull some extra pieces in by the normal February signing day and probably poach a few really good ones out of the portal. If we have some decent success at all next season next year's class could easily be top 5 better than even mario cart crystal ball ever did

Feedback Requested: Like the Background Pics? Other Suggestions?
Not sure if what he just said above is the same thing but when you go to an article being able to go to the forum with a forum link button (yellow oval) instead of having to back out to the main page. Oh, and donuts 🍩 Charles. That would be yummy

Read These and Weep- the Pac-12 Continues its Deep Dive
Year one may be rocky given early signing is upon us, but maybe some wait for Feb. with all the switcheroony going on. And, Lanning will probably pull a couple major transfer portal coups. I hope. We were #9 when MC bolted for the tropics, let's see where we finish in February. JC's and Transfers don't always show in the rankings either, the story could be rosier than what the 24/7 composite finishes with. I'm more concerned about good player development position coaches, and good scheming OC/DC. (Lanning will probably have a hand in Defense?). Year 2 (12 months from now) let's check the recruit rankings then!

Analysis: Is Dan Lanning an Upgrade from Mario Cristobal?
Until we see how he fills out his staff, it's too early to speculate. Then, we'll need at least one season to know for sure. At this juncture, my guess is Lanning will be an upgrade in almost every department. Player development will be the biggest key, which is why I'm not worried about most of the assistants leaving, as I think that was the biggest concern with MC. Coordinators and scheme, and MC's thwarting of Moorhead to do his thing may be more on MC than the assistants, but we got 10 win seasons and a Rose Bowl on pure talent alone. We did better than that with Belotti and Chip recruiting largely 3 star guys. MC set the talent bar way higher and had 4 years to "do something" but didn't--oh wait that was Taggart's motto. I think Lanning will shine in Eugene. Will he stay more than 3 or 4 years? We can only hope

Oregon v Georgia - 1 & Done?
tOSU was a home & home but we lost ours at Autzen last year due to the plandemic

What Would Lanning Bring, What Would We Expect?
I just saw that Jim Tressel was in Eugene this morning

It's BACK! Red Chair Baby!
We've been overrun. I never go out in Bend. Remember the ODOT guys in the 80s who made a big official green highway sign on the Siskiyou Summit that said "Welcome to Oregon. Every third Californian will be shot". They somehow put it up at night. Supposedly never caught the real culprits

It's BACK! Red Chair Baby!
Mt. Bachelor opening Monday, probably just Little Pine...but the bar will be open too! 29-48" predicted, hopefully they get at least the low end. It's about 5" deep right now. Red Chair won't open for a bit probably. But...as long as the Red Chair Beer is here 🍺!!! Time to wax the best board on Bachelor

Brady Hoke seen in Eugene yesterday???
Hearing some rumors...

Kalani Sitake from Brigham Young interviewing for the job?
Heard Sitaki interviewed today as didn't go well, was unprepared and had no "plan". According to JHop...no clue how he'd know, does he have a hidden microphone? Seems like it's too early to get that info?

Katleman to Enter the Transfer Portal
Not a surprise, good luck to him. He and Lewis seemed to be neck and neck this year. We'll be ok as long as we have one or the other

We Can't Do a Regular Poll so...
Aranda (Brady or OBrien as OC...I can dream)

Oddsmakers: "Oregon is Destined for an Underwhelming Hire"
Aranda, with Brady as OC...dream team!!!

Oddsmakers: "Oregon is Destined for an Underwhelming Hire"
Thank you...why all these pundits that get paid to put crap out there...let's just wait and see first. And not Chip, please!

Bring Back Chip Kelly? No Thanks
Couldn't agree more, and other comments here sum it up. Can't recruit, won't recruit, everyone has caught up to the spread. No advantage. Can't believe all the CHIP stuff I'm seeing out there, must be nostalgia. Nostalgia won't win. 7-5 to 5-7 to 4-8 is what we'd see. No thanks

Cristobal Explains His Decision to Canzano...
If we don't lose too many, there is a ton of talent. A good recruiter can keep it going, fix some losses with transfers. But most of all...get someone who can coach, not just recruit. Develop talent, it's not automatic just because some service gave you 5 stars. MC and staff didn't seem to do that.
-
Informed Prediction Time: Chip Kelly Might be the Next Guy
Defenses have figured out the spread. Not the same splash it once was. Chip needed 4 years to get sUCLA to a bowl, in the fertile recruiting grounds of SoCal. Please, no...
-
Second De-Commit Just Happened...
I thought about Wilcox, and a great OC...but could he an Musgrave kill it in recruiting?
-
Manny Diaz Fired
We DO want someone that can compete in SoCal, Texas, and other places. MC did that, Florida and SEC country too. But, more importantly we need someone who can coach them up, and his staff. He'll be at FIU in 4 years
