  1. Oregon Spring Preview: Tight End Depth Takes a Hit Following Departures After years of the group being limited to blocking in a run-heavy offense under Mario Cristobal, the tight ends were utilized in a more creative and effective way by mixing in a balance of run and pass plays. They caught jump balls in the end zone, short passes over the middle and were flushed out to the flats. Now the Ducks hope to continue that growth under Drew Mehringer, but his room looks quite a bit different. Moliki Matavao decided to move south and stay in the Pac-12 by transferring to UCLA and Cam McCormick reunited with Mario Cristobal by going across the country to play for Miami. They each caught 10 passes last year and were reliable in-line blockers, something the Ducks will need to replace with both of them gone. Meet Oregon's three scholarship tight ends entering spring football. Get caught up with the TE room in this article from Ducks Digest.
  2. Oregon Spring Ball Position Battles: CB full of talent, short on experience The cornerback position is often called an island because it’s the one place on the football field where it’s you and the other guy and no one else. In 2023, the Oregon Ducks will have plenty of corners that possess pure talent, but they lack the experience a coaching staff prefers. They’re going to get that experience this year no matter what. Oregon is definitely going to miss all-conference performer Christian Gonzalez, who will be a first-round draft pick in April. Not only will it miss his on-the-field abilities, but also his leadership qualities off the field. For those battling it out to be his replacement, showing leadership could be the determining factor of who sees the more playing time. Of course, coming down with a few interceptions would help as well. Here are the likely candidates to battle it out over the next month or so in Eugene. Oregon Football: Ducks to see real battle at cornerback position DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Oregon needs to fill the void left by corner Christian Gonzalez, but the Ducks have plenty of exciting options to choose from.

  4. Ducks offer 4-star Air Noland, the No. 8 QB in 2024 class Langston Hughes’ 4-star QB Air Noland received an Oregon offer on Thursday. Noland is rated by 247Sports as the No. 99 player in the 2024 class, and the No. 8 QB. The Ducks have extended a lot of QB offers over the past several months in the 2024 class, so we can add this one to the list. Noland has yet to take a visit to Eugene, but it wouldn’t be a shock to see him make his way out west at some point in the coming months. Check out his ratings, vitals and game film in the article below...

  5. Kel'el Ware explains why he committed to Oregon in Whistle's 'Day Off' video Ware recently sat down with Whistle Sports and broke down what life is like for him outside of basketball on the video series “Days Off.” In the video, Ware breaks down what his recruitment was like, why he ended up choosing the Ducks, what he does when not at practice or a game, and where his favorite food spot is in Eugene. “The reason I chose Oregon is because of what they’ve done with recent players,” Ware said. “You’ve got Chris Boucher, Dillon Brooks, Jordan Bell, Chris Duarte, that’s just some of them. They’re all very successful now. And then there’s the environment. It’s peaceful out here. It rains every now and then, but I like that.” Click on the link in the article to see the video...It offers you a chance to know Ware better.

  7. Oregon on pace for its worst 3-point shooting percentage in 23 years All season long the Ducks have been one of the worst 3-point shooting teams in the Pac-12 and as the regular season closes and a potential NIT bid awaits, the Ducks have turned in their worst 3-point shooting performance since the 1999-2000 season. "The guys that choose to return, they're going to have to make some decisions on how much time they want to spend in the gym," said Altman. "If you're shooting under 33 percent you either will be really selective or not shoot at all. So guys are going to have to get in the gym and really make a decision because equal opportunity doesn't exist. We go to the numbers. So we'll evaluate who gets in the gym and who doesn't and we'll evaluate the numbers." Oregon on pace for its worst 3-point shooting percentage in 23 years 247SPORTS.COM Oregon's season could be described by simply showing the team's execution in the second half against the UCLA Bruins.
