OregonDucks

I would be shocked if Stein sticks around in Eugene for more than another year or two. He’s going to get an offer for a head coaching opportunity and, if the offense is as prolific this season, as some expect, it might be sooner rather than later. Let’s hope that he can win a B1G and National Championship at the University of Oregon, first.

The Masters is a tournament that favors those with experience. Wyndham will have many more opportunities to play in the tournament and I would not be surprised if he wins a green jacket in the future.

Only the NCAA would do the complete opposite of what is needed to save college athletics…

Opposing secondaries are going to have nightmares about Oregon’s passing game. Evan Stewart is a big time down the field threat he makes 50/50 balls into 80/20. Holden and Dickey are bigger stronger receivers who can catch those short/intermediate throws and run over CBs or safeties, or catch those end zone fade routes. Tez and Gary Bryant are both high end possession receivers who run good routes, have great hands and will move the chains. This doesn’t even include our TEs or RBs sneaking out of the backfield on routes. Plus we have a QB(s) who can really sling the rock. So excited to see Oregon’s 2024-25 offense.

Coach Samples is certainly intriguing candidate and I can see why Coach Lanning is interested. However, if his goal is to become a HC soon, then he might be better off at ASU as passing game coordinator and WR Coach until someone comes calling for an OC job.

No worries. My ego is not bruised and I appreciate your posts on this site. Like most on this site, I am a passionate college football fan (although troubled by the recent direction of the sport) and know all of the teams in the top football conferences (even the Vanderbilts, Rices and Northwesterns of the world…).

As someone else mentioned, this is a lateral move for Coach Lock. Yes, he’ll make more money but the Ryan Day is on the hot seat. I thank coach for what he did at Oregon but finding a good RB coach should not prove too difficult. I wouldn’t have broken the bank to retain him.

With all due respect to you, sir, but those people are not true college football fans. The Oregon Ducks played in the 2011 and 2015 College Football National Championship Games. It’s unfathomable that any casual college football fan would not know who the Oregon Ducks were in this day and age, unless they have their heads so far up their arses they can’t see day light.

I think that Lanning turning down the Alabama job really opened eyeballs nationwide, including among 5-star football recruits. “What is brewing out in Eugene? I better check it out!”

I don’t understand why the departing schools would agree to this. The $5M should be placed in escrow and any amount not needed for the overpayment of past media revenues returned to the schools. Seems like a lose-lose for the departing schools. Who cares about voting rights for the current year? The major revenue generating sports are all but finished. What am I missing?

I just hope his bracket is better this year…

Yes, but the future is so bright with Shelstad and Evans! Can you imagine how good the team could be in 2-3 years with those two as upper classmen? I would imagine that we could get some really good players that will want to play with those two…

Maybe a potential head coach in waiting?

Based on Giannis Antetokounmpo’s body language, in the seats, it looked like he was pulling for Sabrina. I’m sure that he wasn’t alone! Steph is the greatest 3 point shooter in basketball history and a terrific proponent of youth and women’s basketball. Well done, all around.

Sabrina started off hot before cooling down in the middle and finishing strong. If she could have hit a few more on the third rack or the money balls she might have won. Regardless, Sabrina represented Women’s basketball and Oregon very well, as always. She’s a Duck great. Hopefully we’ll see a rematch.

Kliavkoff should get his share of the blame for the collapse of the PAC-12 conference: • Being blindsided by the exit of the LA schools • Failing to understand the true value of the Pac12 media rights without the LA schools • Turning down ESPN’s initial TV deal of $30M+ per school with a linear broadcasting component (see point above) • Lack of transparency for the remaining schools during the media negotiations and failing to understand the member schools needs (e.g., a need for linear broadcast exposure) • Not expanding aggressively right after the LA schools left the conference (SDSU would have been a no brainer)

Armstead with the sack!

Lenoir had a nice strip for a fumble and Armstead tackled Mahomes from behind on 3rd and long. Ducks representing.

Erik Armstead and Deommodore Lenior are both starters on the San Francisco 49ers defense. Terrance Mitchell is listed on the practice squad. I don't see any Oregon Ducks listed on the Kansas City Chiefs roster. Let's go Niners!!!

I hope that Chip Kelly is on the working committee. He has had some really good, out of the box solutions.

The NCAA has had a few years and has done nothing. In fact, it’s only getting worse. NIL and the transfer portal are completely out of control. Players are free agents every single year and there is no salary cap. Experienced coaches are retiring or going to the NFL to escape the madness. The interests of the NCAA and the hundreds of the member schools may not align with those of the elite programs. I’m glad the SEC and B1G have seen enough and are finally trying to come up with solutions.

Oregon fans are well aware of the dangers of only focusing on recruiting stars. That coach down at Miami chased stars and didn’t properly evaluate and/or develop that talent he brought to Eugene. Many of them transferred out when Dan Lanning arrived. I disagree with the poster about top 5 talent at their positions. You’ve got to have a drive or hunger to reach your full potential.

He's also a really hard hitting safety. Really looking forward to seeing Savage in an Oregon uniform.

We had a RB transfer to Oregon State a couple of years ago and I recall Oregon fans wishing him the best, except when he played the Ducks. None of our players would transfer to Washington. That would be too far of a step down...
