Dillingham to ASU Picking Up Steam
Think about how passionate we are as fans about Oregon, then add in the emotion of playing or coaching at that school. If Oregon called me for any position, I wouldn’t even have to think about it. It would have nothing to do with money. I don’t care how big of a mess the school or program was in, I would pull the trigger immediately and go for it. Mario made a terrible decision, but how can you blame him? I would have done the exact same thing. My guess is Dilly is gone for that reason. ASU is a mess, but there are advantages to that. The biggest being that he probably is going to get some time to build it without immediate consequences.

Canzano: Oregon Ducks Fueled Up on Dan Lanning
Yeah....I saw that too. It seems like he is stretching the truth a little with that comment. Yes, he was on staff after the 4-8 year, but not the guy in charge. Oregon was putting up 50ppg before Herbert got hurt in Taggart's offense. I am not sure they would have made it to 10 wins (maybe), but they certainly would have had more than 7. With Herbert healthy, he didn't really raise the bar very much with the 9 win performance in 2018. Yet somehow he gets all the credit for rebuilding the program.

Fast FishDuck Facts From Beating Bruins
A few more stats: 1) Today was the 3rd time that Oregon has scored on 7 straight possessions in a game this year. 2) Some of Oregon’s freshman class was not born the last time UCLA won at Autzen.

Dan Lanning is All Class
Not sure, but I know it wasn’t Mario against Stanford in 2018.

Game Officials: Somewhere Between the PAC-12 and the SEC Would be Ideal
How about that call in the UW/UA game, where the AZ QB pitches it back to the running back and the refs call an incomplete pass, blow the whistle and stop the play. Then the let AZ challenge and burn their timeout when there is nothing to review. hilarious.

Canzano: No Place Like Home in the Pac-12
Nice call. That is exactly where it opened on FanDuel.

The Ducks and Duck Fans are Better Off in the Pac-12 Than the B1G
The only concern with staying in the Pac-10, as others have pointed out, is the discrepancy in revenue, which will be roughly $30M a year. When revenue sharing starts with the players, things will fall off quickly for schools not in the BIG or SEC and the gap will continue to widen. What good is it making the BCS/playoff, if you just get run off the field every time like Notre Dame? I want Oregon to stay in the Pac-10, but the conference has to come up with a creative plan to close that revenue gap, or the entire conference is toast IMO.

Canzano: Big Ten Sounds Like it's Standing Down vs. Pac-12
Notre Dame is the biggest fraud team ever. They are 0-8 in BCS/New Year's Six games. The program's last major bowl win was in 1994, when they beat Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl.

Canzano: Big Ten Sounds Like it's Standing Down vs. Pac-12
This is in direct conflict to the comments that Rick Neuheisel made on ESPN radio yesterday, indicating that his sources have told him that Oregon and Washington to the BIG is a done deal. Someone is wrong. There is so much conflicting information, it is hard to know what to believe.

Will the Pac-12 "FREEZE-OUT" the LA Schools?
I read somewhere a while back that the Pac-10 conference was going to allow USC and UCLA to remain in conference in several west coast sports. There was a group of 4 or 5 sports and one was beach volleyball (I don't remember the others). When I read that, I was completely shocked and I hope it is not true.

Ducks’ Offense: Is There a ‘Slim Shady’ Attitude at Oregon?
Interestingly enough, Miami is having those same injury issues right now. I wonder if the strength and conditioning / practice routine under the previous staff had an impact on the number of injuries or if it is just a coincidence.

Here We Go...to the B1G
Whoa! Did he really say that on ESPN? Can anyone confirm?

Will Richardson Explains Why He Came Back
I just have a gut feeling that Richardson is going to have an Aaron Brooks type of senior year. He is due to put everything together and just dominate.

Ducks’ Offense: Is There a ‘Slim Shady’ Attitude at Oregon?
Just how good is the offense right now? The most telling stat to me is that the Ducks have scored TDs on 7 straight possessions in 2 games already this season. That is just flat out insane. I wonder when was the last time that happened prior to this year? Not sure how to look that up, but I am guessing that it is a pretty rare occurrence. My gut says that Chip's teams probably did it a few times.

Conference Realignment is Back in the Rumor Mill
Here is a clip of Rob Mullens discussing conference expansion with a reporter from West Virginia. If you are wondering about the connection, Rob attended UWV and Ally graduated from Oregon in Journalism.

Big Man to Ducks?
- Who Do We Root For? UCLA or UTAH?
I always pull for Chip, unless it negatively impacts Oregon somehow. Those were some really fun years to watch the Ducks! Go UCLA! I am not overly upset or worried about the BIG move. That will take care of itself. - Who Do We Root For? UCLA or UTAH?
