  3. Report: Texas A&M receiver Evan Stewart to visit Oregon this weekend The Oregon Ducks receivers’ room is a bit jam-packed right now, but there’s always room for more. According to 247sports’ own Matt Zenitz, former Texas A&M Aggie wideout Evan Stewart is set to take a visit to Eugene this weekend. Convincing Stewart to come to Oregon would be huge news for Dan Lanning and the Ducks. He was once the No. 1 receiving prospect when he was in high school before signing with the Aggies as a part of their No. 1 class back in 2021. In his first two seasons, Stewart hasn’t disappointed, but his stats dropped a bit in his sophomore year. Stewart wasn’t the only player in College Station to have a down year in 2023, however. The six-foot, 170-pounder has a total of 91 catches for 1,163 yards and six touchdowns. In 2023, he just had 38 catches for 514 yards and four scores in eight games. If Stewart did come to Oregon, he would fit right in with the likes of Tez Johnson, Traeson Holden, Gary Bryant, Jr., Jurrion Dickey and more weapons for new quarterback Dillon Gabriel to choose from. Oregon might have the most potent passing back in the country with this addition...

  4. Oregon TE Casey Kelly enters the transfer portal Following the Oregon Ducks Fiesta Bowl win, the group of Ducks in the transfer portal has grown, and on Thursday, Oregon’s tight end room got a little smaller. Ducks TE Casey Kelly entered the transfer portal on Thursday, after spending one season at Oregon. Kelly played his first three seasons at Ole Miss, the alma mater of his brother Chad Kelly and uncle Jim Kelly — a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Casey Kelly will have one year of eligibility remaining. Despite appearing in 13 of 14 games for the Ducks in 2023, Kelly didn’t have much of a role in the Oregon offense. Kelly finished the season with 5 catches for 43 yards and 2 TDs. His size and strength made him a valuable goalline target for the Ducks, but it’s likely he wants a bigger role in his final season of eligibility. For 2024, it seems likely the Ducks will return starting TE Terrance Ferguson for his final year as a Duck. Oregon will also bring back senior TE Patrick and standout freshman Kenyon Sadiq for his second season.

  16. Where is the best landing spot for Bo Nix in the 2024 NFL Draft? It may not have sunk in yet, but Bo Nix’s career at Oregon is finished, and in April he’ll be selected by one of 32 teams to continue his career in the NFL. It seems like the Bo Nix era at Oregon just began, but it will be fun to follow Bo as he continues his journey into the NFL. With the level of quarterback talent in this year’s class, a first-round selection isn’t guaranteed for Nix, but he is still one of the best prospects in the draft. On Tuesday, Trevor Sikkema of Pro Football Focus (PFF) listed the best draft prospect for all 32 NFL teams, and he named Nix as the Denver Broncos top prospect. Sikkema had this to say about the former Ducks QB... 2024 NFL Draft: Where is the best landing spot for Bo Nix?

  17. Troy Franklin has made a case for himself to be the best wide receiver in program history. His 2023 season is undoubtedly the best ever, as he broke all major school records (although one fell to teammate Tez Johnson on Monday). The 2023 season was undoubtedly the best passing season the program has ever had and it includes two of the best individual receiving seasons too. Franklin and Johnson each now sit at or near the top of every major single-season record. Today, I've pulled out the Oregon official record book to run through the school's all-time receiving stats, compiling the 10 best in a variety of categories. This story will list the top individual games, seasons and careers of Ducks using a variety of statistical categories from receptions to yards to touchdown. So prepare yourself for a trip down memory lane with the ultimate rundown of Oregon's all-time receiving leaderboards...

  18. Football Recruiting: Building the Wall Offensive skill players may make for splashy headlines, but the real meat of Oregon’s best ever recruiting class is on the defensive side of the ball. It is not an accident that the three highest rated recruits in the class play the three positions in the defensive front seven. Defensive lineman Adin Breland, edge Elijah Rushing, and backer Brayden Platt have the potential to be instant impact players and mainstays for the next few years. Today we take a look at the green monsters that will look to feast on Big 10 ball carriers and QBs for the next several seasons...

  19. Our 6th thread for this topic has reached a 2nd page and has gotten too cumbersome to handle. So, I am starting a new thread (No. 7). NJDuck and I have never gone through a whole year cycle of postings regarding recruiting before, so this has been a learning experience. Along with the fact that Coach Lanning and his crew are such good recruiters, this thread grows quickly. We are keeping this thread to one page as advertising is most advantageous that way and needed to pay costs of site. If you need to refer back to No. 6 for reference, click here.
  20. I just read on OregonLive/Oregonian that "Martin’s departure leaves Oregon with 89 projected scholarship players in 2024." If that is the case, we will need to make more room. We will need more room for Portal Players too.
  21. Just Ducky, my husband would agree with you about coaching your own kid. Kid is hard! I wonder if there is something else going on. I noticed on the Snap-Count report from the Fiesta Game, he only got 4 snaps. That is a pretty low number for him.
  22. Six Oregon Signees Attending Under Armour All-American Game Hey Duck fans time to switch gears just a little bit. The Fiesta bowl is in the rear view and that is all she wrote for Oregon football in the 2023-2024 season. You know what never has an offseason however? Recruiting. It’s a 24/7 365 days a year marathon. Slightly lost in the shuffle has been the two high school All-American games kicking off practices. The Under Armour All-American game in Orlando kicked off a few days ago and will wrap up with a televised game tomorrow, Wednesday. Here is a look at the Oregon signees at the event...

  23. Snap Count Takeaways: Major notes from Oregon's usage report in Vrbo Fiesta Bowl The final game of the year has come and gone for the Oregon Ducks, and it gives us one last opportunity to use a tool that offers great value if you care to learn more about the team that you follow. The usage report. There are arguably two games every year where the snap counts and usage report give a great bit of insight into the team — the first game and the last game. While the first game of the year provides the first really great look at a depth chart, the last game of the year often portends to what is to come down the road, with a lot of young players on the roster getting a chance to step into big spots due to transfers and opt-outs from older players. For the Ducks, the Fiesta Bowl performance against the Liberty Flames didn’t provide as much of that as we might have initially anticipated, but it did offer a look at how some young players might step into key roles going forward. Later this week, we will be going through a usage report for the entire season, but for now, let’s take a look at the single game snap counts one last time for the 2023 season... Snap Count Takeaways: Notes from Oregon’s usage report vs. Liberty DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM A look at some of the biggest takeaways from the usage report in the Oregon Ducks’ win over Liberty in the Vrbo Fiesta Bowl.
  24. I wonder if it was difficult playing for Dad. Often times, Dads are harder on their own kids. I do believe he got into most games and was doing great.
