  1. Left handed... dribbling, driving left... long pass... smaller window than it looks (because of how long the pass was). Yes, very nice....
  2. Lupoi wants to be “extremely aggressive and confrontational”. Here's to hoping that we see this on the field in the fall!
  3. My inlaws just retired and after many years of research and visiting different places, they decided on Bulgaria. Their biggest concern was cost. If cost was my only concern, I know of at least 5 houses in different parts of Mexico that I could live rent free, just for taking care of the place. I won´t because I want to live close to kids and grandkids.
  4. Looks like LSU might have the inside lane as they have the last official visit and he likes Brian Kelley. Sounds like he would be a very good get.
  5. Good advice. Nice to see a former Duck still care very much for his team.
  6. Are we missing something here? Reading a good deal of the article (not all - yawn), It looked to me like the SEC wanted to have their own playoffs and then the WINNER of that playoff plays the winner of the rest of the country for the united championship. That would put 8 SEC teams in the playoffs. At one point the writer of the article asked, "What if nobody wanted to play the winner of the SEC playoff?" At least, that's what I thought it said.
  7. Isn't there a limit (of one) to how many times you can transfer through the portal without losing a year of eligibility or having to sit a year? I see a maximum of two transfers... once through the portal at any time, and a second only if you are a graduate transfer. The guys who have "portalled out" early and are unhappy with where they moved to are stuck. This might make others think twice about using the portal as an easy out. I think people will be more careful in the future. Another factor is if scholarship athletes lose their scholarships because no one picks them up will give athletes pause when they hear how common this is????
  8. I would suggest for a very Oregon Coast fishing experience that you find a charter in Pacific City on a dory. They launch off the beach on the leeward side of Cape Kiwanda. The very nice ling cod in my picture was caught off a dory very close to Cape Kiwanda. The picture was taken less than a minute after I pulled it in. The reason I'm dressed so warm is that it was caught in January. Click on my picture and you can see a bigger version of it. Welcome to Oregon!
  9. I think I read that with this transfer Oregon stands at 86 scholorship athletes, which is one over the limit. They need to lose another one before September. If they land another commit or transfer, then hey have to lose 2.
  10. I realize that the point of the post is showing how much better Oregon has done over the last 21 games, but I am seeing something else just as good, that almost no one ever recognizes... In the last 21 years EVERY SINGLE TEAM in the "weak" PAC 12 has been considered a top 10 team in the nation! (A minimum of 3 times each.) Can the SEC say that? Can the B1G say that? The ACC? The BIG 12? There is a reason it is hard to sweep through the PAC in conference games.
  11. If this is true, she may be making more that if she was in the WNBA. There´s a good reason to stay another year.
  12. I was real disappointed when he didn't commit to Oregon out of HS. So... Welcome home!
  13. The article is very short on substance (and everything else), but the one point the article makes is a valid one. How many teams are going to stop the USC offense? Most people are predicting 8-10 wins for USC... WITH their "weak" O-line.
  14. So.... did MC finally learn his lesson? Will he finally allow the OC to have control??? I know what we are all thinking: I believe it when I see it! or, as Mahomes would say, "I'll see it when I believe it."
  15. ...and yet, you will be at it again tomorrow. There´s no game like golf.
  16. ...and Franck reclassified. He would be a freshman right now if he hadn't. We have two more freshmen bigs now, getting some real experience. I trust they are hitting the weight room to beef up a bit like the other guys. Having true bigs is a new thing for Altman's Oregon teams. They will make a real difference.
  17. ...for which they receive a tax-deductible receipt... I think that might be the point.
  18. That!! I think that, in all probability, MC invited Pittman to leave for this very reason.
  19. A couple questions/observations: The question has to do with how many recruits and transfers can be legally taken by a school. Every time someone leaves via portal or for the NFL or due to injury or anything else, my original thought is that it opens up a spot for a portal transfer coming in. But I think last year I read (here?) that a school can only take a limit of 25 new players between HS recruits and Portal transfers COMBINED??? All this can be very bad for a school. What if, through the various exit doors a school loses 40 players in a year... can they only receive 25 scholarship players to replace them? My observation is that there is a limit of the use of the portal to ONE transfer per career. If a athlete transfers again (without being a graduate transfer) he/she would have to sit out a year or lose a year of eligibility. This rule will lead to a little bit of stability down the line. If you are going to transfer through the portal... choose wisely...
