OMG: A Lanning Quote That Makes Me Hurl...
TheRunningDuck replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I was dissipointed when he said Nix is our QB. So the close competition was all hot air? MC would not give his backups playing time and now that error is being repeated. -
It is not like plaing Nebraska in the 70s. There is no game we do not stand a chance in now.

There has always been a minimum academic standard which us why we have not seen schools such as UNLV.

Backlash as Devon Allen DQ'd by 'BS Rule'
TheRunningDuck replied to Steven A's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
And this is an interesting quote from a WP commentor. "It is pretty rare that a sprinter or hurdler is measured with a reaction time less than .120-.125, but it does happen. To capture the outliers, the reaction time considered a false start was set at .100 seconds several decades ago. There has been a fair amount of discussion within the track and field community that the timers in Oregon have been recording "starts" ever so slightly faster than other timing systems. There have been numerous races over the last few days where sprinters have registered "legal" start times better than .110. Allen registered a .101 reaction time in his semifinal heat. Including Allen's false start, several false starts this week were in the .090 - .100 range. These results seem to be too clustered to be explained by coincidence or by athletes trying to gain an advantage. While the result can't be changed now, I think Allen has a legitimate argument and the timing system in use needs to be inspected." -

This article explains the reaction time standard. Reaction Times and Sprint False Starts CONDELLPARK.COM I have yet to find an article clearly explaining the mechanism within the starting blocks as that might be a weak point. -

TheRunningDuck replied to Steven A's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
There is no way the equipment in all 8 lanes is calibrated to within a thousandth. Devon does not move any part of his body before the gun. There were also 2 women DQed in their races with just a couple of thousandths. This really needs to be revised. -

TheRunningDuck replied to JDuck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I sure hope it is full.The two big meets so far this year have had surprisingly sparse crowds. Covid requirements? -

Unbelievable: T&F Coach Robert Johnson Fired
TheRunningDuck replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
This cannot be about his coaching as it would be difficult to replicate his success. -
Will Richardson is Coming Back for Next Season
TheRunningDuck replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
His role will probably change as they have a real point guard with speed coming in. That is something they have lacked for years. -

I am very afraid to reply to this. -
Coach K’s Final Karma for Unethical Behavior Ends Career
TheRunningDuck replied to AllOregon's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
I was finding it especially annoying that the media was pushing the narrative they were. He was never going to be my hero. It reminded of the 60s and 70s promotion of the Dallas Cowboys. -
MBB: Oregon Suffers "Gut Wrenching Loss"
TheRunningDuck replied to 30Duck's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
If they beat the Washington schools and win 2 Pac 12 tourney games I believe they will be in the NCAA tourney. Tourney "experts" determine nothing. -
Canzano Does NOT Like Dana's Bigs...
TheRunningDuck replied to Charles Fischer's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
He has always been a jerk so I pay no attention to anything he says. Wants to create controversy over honest reporting. -
How many 4 win teams have made the playoffs the next year? Just a winning record will be difficult.

And yet they have nothing to show for it.

There were 2 duplex/cottages behind that frat. I lived in one for a few months.

USC Back on Top Much Sooner Than Thought?
TheRunningDuck replied to Just Ducky's topic in Our Beloved Ducks
They are actually increasing their main problems. Too much arrogance and too many prima donnas. -

She is one of those coaches that complain constantly on the sideline.
