This is an interesting read about Jurrion Dickey's experience with NIL, especially after he became a 5*. Dickey, who has seen other highly touted prospects land in tough situations by prioritizing paydays above all else, understands that he must keep the bigger picture in mind. He said he rejected a million-dollar sponsorship because he wasn’t comfortable with the terms of the deal. And though he declined to reveal specifics about his NIL arrangement with Oregon, he said that some other schools’ collectives offered three times as much as the Ducks. “Real love is hard to find these days,” said Dickey, the Bay Area’s highest-rated recruit since Antioch High’s Najee Harris — now a Pro Bowl running back for the Steelers — was the nation’s No. 1 prospect in 2017. “I’m going to Oregon because it’s a place that’s stayed truthful with me.” If Dickey doesn’t sound like a typical high school senior, that’s likely because he’s already dealing with some very grown-up issues.

The Latest With Top 2024 RB Jason Brown Jr. The 5-foot-10, 200-pound running back took an Oregon visit in January and loved what he saw. "I loved it.

"My dad was there so he got to build a relationship with the coaching staff which is really important." He's taken numerous trips to Eugene and has built strong connections with the coaching staff.

Mackinations: Takeaways from the first three weeks of Duck baseball Through the first three weeks of the season, Oregon sits at 8-3, fresh off a four-game series sweep of San Diego. Heading into the series, it was clear San Diego could swing a little. With six players entering with batting averages over .300 after their first seven games of the season, headlined by Jack Costello, Oregon's young and inexperienced pitching staff was going to be put to the test. Well, all things considered, they passed with flying colors. The Ducks conceded only six runs over four games as Jackson Pace, and Leo Uelmen really solidified their rotation spots. Oregon's season has only worked in sweeps, as the Ducks swept Xavier to start, were swept by UCSB, and then the aforementioned sweepage of San Diego. By that philosophy, UCLA should be in line for four straight wins next weekend. However, we know that's not how baseball works. We know that baseball is a marathon and most certainly not a sprint. It's hard to come away with clear and conclusive takeaways from the first five miles of this marathon of a season, but I will try.

Redshirt Review: Ben Roberts Today, we'll continue the series with defensive tackle Ben Roberts. Roberts certainly takes up space at 311 pounds and has requisite athleticism to make that matter.

Photo Gallery: Former Oregon Ducks perform well at 2023 NFL Combine The 2023 NFL Combine is now behind us, and the six Oregon Ducks who were in attendance should feel pretty good about how things went. At the top of the charts was cornerback Christian Gonzalez, a player who went into the combine as a projected first-round pick, but may have raised his draft stock to the point where it’s possible he’s taken inside the top 10. Players like DJ Johnson and Noah Sewell also performed well, while offensive linemen Malaesala Aumavae-Laulu and T.J. Bass held their own. Alex Forsyth suffered a hamstring tweak at the combine, limiting him in most drills. However, he still came away with a solid combine grade, and will have a chance to put up some numbers at Oregon’s Pro Day on March 14. Here are some of the best pictures of the Ducks at the combine.

Dana Altman 'not sure' where Oregon stands entering conference tournament Several teams, specifically the ones on the bubble, are taking note of their position for the NCAA Tournament. Even with Oregon on the outside looking in, though, Dana Altman isn’t entirely sure, or at least isn’t very interested, in any opinions about where the Ducks are projected at the moment. All Altman said he was worried about following his team’s 73-68 win over Stanford is that they have the momentum of three straight wins behind them as they enter the Pac-12 Tournament. From there, he is focused on maintaining Oregon’s defensive success while also finding enough contributors on the offensive end.
