This is so confusing to me as to "What in the World is he Thinking?" Wish he made this decision before Benson decided to leave. Maybe Benson would have stayed.
I can not figure out why so many players think transfer portal is such a great idea? Here's hoping maybe coach L can pull a great running back from the portal (maybe the two running backs from Stanford?).

Really sadden over Benson leaving
. I think do to injuries he never was able to get a good footing in showing what he can do. I agree with Dye that Benson was going to be one of Oregon's best RBs.
Sorry to see that so many players think the transfer portal is going to give them greener pastures. Sadden to see so many might get lost in the portal and never find a landing spot. The grass is not always greener on the other side.
Let's hope coach L is able to get great players needed through the portal and recruits by the Feb. time period.
Looking forward to the new coaching staff bringing bright future for Oregon. Go Ducks!!

Thank you Charles,
I agree with you and others on this matter. Thank you for this open letter to Coach Lanning.
Coach Lanning,
You will find that Duck fans are fanatical and loyal. All we ask is to be open and honest with us. We know all things take time to implement your plans. We stand behind you in fan support to see your plans to come into fruition.
We love your DEFENSE at Georgia! It was fun to see what Georgia's defense did in dismantling Michigan's offense. As Charles mentioned, please bring the high octane offense back to Oregon!
Best wishes to you and the Georgia Bull Dogs in the NC game against Alabama this year!
We are excited to see what you and staff are able to do on the recruiting trail/transfer portal, but importantly on the Xs and Os, game management and player development.
Welcome aboard Coach Lanning. Go Ducks!

Hi David,
Thank you for the article. I agree, need to move on.
I guess to me the saddest part of this was not having enough time for the new coaching staff to come onboard to help secure most of the incoming recruiting class. Here's hoping for a favorable turn around before the Feb. deadline.
Looking forward to a bright future with the new coaching staff and the potential they will bring to the table in all facets of the football program. Hopefully making Oregon a powerhouse not only in the PAC12, but future NC potential.
Again, here's to the new coaching staff, players and a fanatical fanbase that will make a winning combination toward future endeavors!
Thanks all! This forum/site has been and will always be such a great blessing!! This is due to the many members giving their time, effort, intelligence and for the love of the game with a safe environment that makes this place FIRST CLASS!!
GO DUCKS!! and HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!!!

Hopefully will see the one we hope to see which is at QB position sometime in the game. There is an audio pod you can listen to as well.

Here is the thread on the questions and answers from McClendon and Stoops:
It seems McClendon is playing down the amount of missing players.

As a final note, no matter what happened, even if cristobal stayed oregon was guaranteed to have a number of transfers. currently speaking has 86 scholarshipped players(the limit is 85 but partially extended due to covid). when you calculate seniors, current transfers, and nfl draftee's. Oregon maybe has 10-12 scholarships open... we currently have 12 players commited.
I guess what was alarming is seeing some using the transfer portal and seeing the recruits pulling away. Such bad timing MC leaving having no time to hold on to the recruits before signing day. Plus we are losing so many of the coaches that could have helped kept this recruiting class together. Frustrating.
Will need one heck of a coaching staff that can recruit like MC did, but better Xs and Os with good game management. According to what Canzano it seems Rob has a wider group of donors involved in the next hiring. Here is the article:

Maybe what we should have done was create a respectful petition for all Oregon fans to put their name on with a list of coaches we think they should consider. Maybe this is unrealistic to even produce.

Judging from what I’m reading it’s between Wilcox, Chip, or Sitake. Everybody else is just rumors.
Not happy with those selection. What is going on in the minds of those in charge finding a coach? This can't be happening that they would settle on these three. This is not the way to go. Talk about aiming too low. If this is what Mullens and the like are thinking, it's time to get a new AD.
-
We are losing recruits as well as players thru the transfer portal. He is wasting time interviewing Sitake, Wilcox and asking permission to interview Kelly. Seriously! As far as I am concern these are not the coaches to go after. This can't be the best Oregon can do attracting coaches.
-
I do not understand this list or where they got this list from. I am not sure why they would even consider the coaches on this list as the top choices. There are better choices out there. In my opinion this will not go well for the future of the Oregon program with these choices.
-
I think Rhule is a good candidate. But, how long can we wait before our whole recruiting class blows up. Understand MC leaving, but bad timing for Oregon.

Lane Kiffin would be my choice. Don't go Chip Kelly, Justin Wilcox, or Kilani Sitake. We need someone who can recruit and with great Xs and Os, game management. Rob Mullens better not mess this up. There are other coaches out there that would be a great fit.

Surely Oregon can do better then this. The only one that might be someone to possibly consider on that list would be Joe Brady.
-
This is where I am greatly disappointed in MC leaving with only what, a week left for signing day? This is going to be a mess. Thanks MC for the timing of your departure. This is going to hurt Oregon badly in recruiting. How is Oregon going to be able to hold this recruiting class when the recruits don't even know who the next coach and staff will be?
Sorry, I do have to get over my disappointment and hope those in charge makes the next search correctly. Go Ducks!

Do we value loyalty and get nine win seasons, or do we want MORE and attempt to return to the 'Natty? I do not believe Wilcox has the recruiting chops to take us there, and his Cal roster proves it.
I agree with Charles on this. Wilcox is not the answer as far as I am concern.

My main concern, losing recruits and or existing players to the transfer portal. How many of the coaching staff will be going with him?

Interesting... their thoughts in response to the playoff committee's decisions and ultimately what the committee is doing as a whole. Around the 34 minute mark they speak on where they, the committee and the The text group thinks Oregon should be at in the rankings. Their shadow ranking has Oregon at number 3 as does the PO committee. The text group has Oregon at number 2.
Go Ducks!! Win Out!

I'd rather have the FOX crew.
Maybe will be in luck. Sometimes FOX crew does their BIG Noon Kickoff at the same game as Game Day, of course different location on campus.

Oh great not them again!
Listening to the Stanford Duo is like finger nails scraping across the chalk board!

EUGENE — Oregon was attempting to score until the final whistle against rival Washington.
The No. 4 Ducks beat the Huskies, 26-16, on Saturday and were originally ruled to have scored on an 11-yard touchdown run by Byron Cardwell Jr. with 10 seconds to play. The score was overturned upon review and the ball was spotted at the 1.
Oregon’s offense took the field but the clock ran out before a play got off and the game was declared over.
“We weren’t trying to run the clock out at all,” offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead said. “We were trying to punch the ball in. (Anthony Brown Jr.) was waiting for Alex Forsyth to make his line calls there, for the blocks to be made. Unfortunately we didn’t have an opportunity to snap it. We were attempting to snap the ball and score, but the clock ran out before we could get it snapped.”

Ok, Oregon didn't look their best in this game, but it was in a hostile environment, heaving rain with wind through most of the game.
Oregon held Washington to 166 total yards (111 passing, and 55 rushing) and only 7 first downs compare to Oregon's 427 total yards (only 98 of those yards passing) and 22 first downs. That was Washington's lowest total yards that any team held them at in spite of still having injuries and having to shift defensive players around due to those injuries.
I have to admit, wishing the Ducks punched it in for more points at the end of the game when they had the chance. Yesterday's games, other than Georgia, had struggles. Cincy struggled with Tulane, MSU lost to Purdue, Alabama did not look all that great against LSU and neither did Ohio St. against Nebraska. We are the ones that had to deal with terrible weather.
I do not understand this predictor at all. Doesn't make sense. If Oregon wins out as well as Pac12 championship should show higher percentage on the predictor. Again, do not understand how they come to this prediction.
Wish we did not have that blemish of a lost with Stanford, but the only thing we can do is take care of business and win all our remaining games and conference championship. Hopefully will be able to be one of the top 4 teams invited to the invitational playoffs. In my thinking Oregon should move up to the 3rd spot, but who knows how this committee will place us. Go Ducks!!!
