Duke got Adam Spanished.

That’s fun. Do they know that USC has: ONE conference championship ZERO playoff or BCS appearances, and ONE win against Oregon In the last 15 years?

I have a feeling that this is going to get a lot worse before it gets better. There were rumors flying around just over a year ago that Oregon’s NIL budget for men’s hoops was around $3M. I hope that is not true, but if it is, Oregon is no where near being market competitive.

Oregon had to keep two guys on the roster going into next season - Evans and Shelstad - And they lost both. Is Dana going to be able to find 5 legit starters in the portal?

What happens next is going to send a clear message on how invested Oregon is in the future of men’s basketball. They need a minimum of 3 starting caliber players and a few rotation guys. And that is assuming that Ariza can come in and start right away.

Yikes!! One of the few guys that did more than one thing well.

12 points at half? Just gross. 🤮 I have been watching Oregon hoops since 1991 and I have never seen that before. Is that the lowest output in a half for the Ducks since the shot clock was adopted??

UW coach got a double T, so 2 FT each, then Evans had a 1:1. 6 total. 9 points in 11 seconds is some Reggie Miller stuff. That was awesome.

The SEC should have been screaming for 16 teams Probably cost them 4 to 5 playoff spots in the last 2 years. I love what the BIG is doing. Make sure you get to 24, so teams like USC, Iowa, and Illinois don’t get left out due to SEC bias.

The crazy thing about this, is that you could have said this exact same thing about Bo Nix when he was at Auburn. I remember the comments on this board when we first grabbed Nix in the portal. There were not a lot of people onboard, including myself. I’m not saying it will work out. It may not. However, I am confident that Lanning will have more than 1 solution at the QB position.

This team is currently 315th in FG% and 275th in scoring offense. Just wow. For reference, 91-92 was 238th in scoring offense.

Thanks Mr. Marsh! That was a good read. Oregon had two of those in that game, because Cliff Harris intercepted that ball clean and in bounds.

91-92 was my freshman year at Oregon. It was rough. Lyden was hurt and only played a few games. Orlando and Antoine were basically the only two guys that could score on that team. IIRC, there were several games where they had less than 20 before half. This team might be worse right now, with Bittle, Shelstad, and Simpkins out. It’s too bad that nobody has really been able to step up and score consistently.

That first half looked like 1992. Yikes.
