I would think the Big 10 would consider Oregon and Washington viable partners to the Big 10.if the two Universities approach them, unless it’s too late? I am hoping Oregon is moving quickly behind the scenes doing what’s right for Oregon. This has really put Oregon in a pickle.

Canzano’s response. Canzano: USC and UCLA moving to the Big Ten? Say it ain't so. WWW.JOHNCANZANO.COM Oregon and Washington next?

Where would Oregon go if not the BIG10? It seems the BIG10 would be the way to go? Maybe USC, UCLA, us and Wasington would be enticing for the BIG10 to take all four schools?

Canzano sees what DL is doing at Oregon feels natural and organic. He takes the over on the odds of Oregon winning 8.5 games. Canzano: Three coaches -- and three wins we shouldn't ignore WWW.JOHNCANZANO.COM I weigh in on Oregon's Dan Lanning, Oregon State's Jonathan Smith and University of Portland's Shantay Legans

Sooo True!

Plus I think Washington is in somewhat of a panic, they are losing out on their brightest stars in their own home state as well as the transfer portal. They have been able to attract only one 4* athlete. That is the state they are in right now. I could be wrong on this assumption, but it seems it is what it is for them and they are accepting what they can accomplish.

I am not sure if this article was mentioned, but what is worth noting in this article is a paragraph talking about Cedric Baxter Jr. emerging as a top target for Alabama at running back. Maybe we have a great shot at landing Young to Oregon. Love the picture of Moore handing the ball off to Young. Moore/Young combo at Oregon? Go Ducks, Fly High! Torres' Take: What Landing Dante Moore Would Mean for Oregon WWW.MSN.COM The Ducks have gained undeniable momentum for a top QB in 2023

The first part of Canzano's article is on Pat Casey. Skip farther down to the section talking about the Big 12 taking a page out of the PAC12's playbook by hiring an outsider to the world of college athletics. According to Canzano, it appears college athletics, at least a couple of cases, is turning towards executives with experience in sponsorship, licensing, entertainment and brand strategy. Canzano: Pat Casey gets a front-row seat on Adley Rutschman's journey WWW.JOHNCANZANO.COM Plus... the Big 12 follows Pac-12 strategy.

Go Ducks, Fly High! Hopefully will continue to see more good news coming out this last weekend visits. Oregon Recruiting: Ducks becomes favorite to land LB Blake Nichelson DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Another Crystal Ball Prediction for the Ducks logged after an impressive recruiting weekend.

Well that speaks volumes!

Wow. I guess for husky fans as the old saying goes, Ignorant is Bliss?

Who is the one down? Thanks.

This is promising news! That Dante Moore is in Eugene. Imagine if Moore, Young and Uiagelelei commits to Oregon along with others? What a tremendous class 2023 will be! Thanks Log Haulin. Go Ducks, Fly High!

My mistake on last sentence from my last message. San Diego does not have a pro football team.

As David Marsh mentioned about these schools: San Diego is the No. 27 media market in the country and would be No. 6 in the conference behind Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Denver, and Portland. National University Ranking : 148 Enrollment: 31,491 Athlon Sports stated about San Diego State: "Whether they would be competitive in the league right away would be a question. In men’s basketball, yes. They would need to play catch-up in the other sports, however. Also, a new stadium and more recruiting territory in California are always positives to sell. However, adding another team in the Golden State probably wouldn’t move the needle in terms of value to television partners." But, if PAC12 expands and only staying within close proximity, can't help thinking San Diego State might not be a bad move to bring in along with the Nevada schools and one other (not sure which other). At this time, as DUCati855 mentioned, the city of San Diego does have a pro football team.

Just some thoughts to ponder. What about UNLV instead of Nevada or possibly both? if PAC12 decides to take up interest again to expand as possible candidates. Interesting information below: Nevada: US News & World Report University Ranking: 227 Enrollment: 21,000 Media Market: 104 Pac-12 Expansion Fit: This is a tough one. So this can be seen in two ways. Either the Pac-12 would take UNLV and assume it has the state of Nevada – even if Reno is a whole separate area and base – or it jumps on the Rebel-Wolf Pack, Fremont Cannon rivalry and makes it more of a thing. The big issue would be that Nevada just isn’t quite big enough. The media market is okay-not-great, and there’s no national fan base to up the overall profile. UNLV: US News & World Report University Ranking: 258 Enrollment: 31,175 Media Market: 40 Pac-12 Expansion Fit: This would be strictly a home base play. It’s almost a lock that the Pac-12 will someday be mostly operating out of Las Vegas – especially if the big sport conference championships will be there. UNLV doesn’t quite fit when it comes to the school or the national academic profile, but the TV market is great and the fan bases of the other Pac-12 institutions would make the road game a huge event. Call this a trophy get as the league expands a bit geographically. What is interesting, according to the report below UNLV has reached tier 1 research status. UNLV joins nation’s 120 most elite colleges as Carnegie R1 institution - Las Vegas Sun Newspaper LASVEGASSUN.COM As new graduates were receiving their diplomas Tuesday during UNLV’s winter commencement, the university got another major reason to celebrate.

Ok now that really makes me feel old

I agree. I am happy how our running back room is looking and possibly what the future will continue to be! Fresh legs with a constant rotation through out a game would be a game changer. Fresh legs also means possibly less chances of injuries. So many different ways using more than one running back on the field at the same time. Go Ducks, Fly High!

I am not sure how much of the alliance with the Big Ten and ACC did for us. I feel like it hurt us more than helped. For instance, I think it kind of kept him from really pushing the school presidents and CEOs to bring the remaining Big 12 schools to join the PAC12. A great missed opportunity on that one. It would have given us clout for inking out a great media rights deal. Other than that I think he is really trying to find ways to get this conference back on track. I especially like the idea of him being on board to dump the NCAA. Amazing how much money they've raked in from the colleges.

Agree. This would be a great get!

This kid must really have something for them to pursue him this young.

Oregon fifth? He can't be serious? With the talent Oregon has in the TE/WR groups. This will be proven wrong this year.

Go Ducks, Fly High!!

Welcome SoGaDawg! We welcome your insight on Georgia's perspective about the game and team. I must say I always have green color glasses on, but am high on our new coaching staff and firmly believe Oregon will be become a much better team because of it.
