It will be great to see a good contingent of duck fans supporting the team at the game. We had a good turn out when we played Auburn in Dallas, TX.

I wonder what was the allotment that was given out for the game?

I agree with you about MC saying what he was going to produce on the O side and never did. I also agree with your article. As the old saying goes "The proof is in the pudding" But sure am hoping what they are saying becomes real on the grid iron.

I agree. I believe Dillingham said a pro-style offense that plays fast. He wants where this offense aims to snap the ball over 80 times per game, but he said he wanted to enhance the amount of opportunities for its playmakers to do just that — make plays. I think he was also saying they want to be efficient in their plays, getting as many explosives plays as possible, but not necessarily have to get 80 plays off per game to reach the goal of the amount scores they need. He said.."We want to get people touches. We want to be explosive," he explained. "It’s a system built around our players to create the best matchups and we want to do that at a rapid pace. We want to snap the ball as many times as we can because we want to get those guys as many touches as possible." Versatility, potentially opening the door for a more varied scheme. With this brand of offense with a DL defense, will be fun to watch! Go Ducks!!

Amazing they were not held liable in this case, but they should have been.

Oregon had a great turn out for the spring game. Hardly people sitting in other PAC12 stadiums for their spring games, including Utah's. UCLA, well...

There is over 30,000, they said fans still piling in Will see what the actual attendance end up being.

Another big mistake by our previous commissioner and university presidents.

With all the hype with Riley and QB you would think there would have been a bigger turn out.

Yes, on ESPN. USC, the poster child with ESPN. The only PAC12 team to be broadcast on ESPN

I agree with the article you wrote on this and with the Bulldog fans. Really liking what I am seeing with this coaching staff and DL himself.

I remember Charles you mentioning about Oregon using NIL the right way and for the long term, along with this new coaching staff which I feel has the IT factor that will bring Oregon into the next level in football. GO DUCKS!!

FANTASITIC. . Recruiting well in both sports. Can't wait for the coming season to start!

TAMU would not be getting this many high recruits, except for the motto "Show Me The Money." It sure is on full display at this university.

I like what Jon is presenting. I agreed with Jon when he said awhile back the Pac12 and Big12 should have combined into one conference when that opportunity arisen back when Oklahoma and Texas jumped ship. This would have given both conferences a greater chance of bringing in big revenue and a bigger say at the table due to a huge geographic coverage. But, that ship has passed.

Thanks Charles!

Thanks Mike for a great article. Does anyone know if the spring game will be televised? I live on the East coast. Thanks, Go Ducks!

The NIL situation has become disconcerting when it comes to recruiting. We lost JC to Tennessee and might possibly lose Overton to TAMU? Who knows how much USC is willing to pay out for this same very purpose, to beat out the competition. I feel like the NIL has brought sad days to college football. Colleges losing out with top recruits because they can't compete financially with other institutions who can. Oregon might not be able to bring in these recruits because of this, even though we have great facilities and what it has to offer for recruits as student athletes as one of the perks. But it seems now whoever is the highest bidder takes the prize. I feel like NIL money shadowing over a school who spent a lot of money for certain players, what is this going to do to a team as a whole? Not just football but basketball, baseball, track and field as well as other non-profiting sports? I know this has been a conversation for awhile, but it's frustrating seeing this happening that could possibly destroy college sports as a whole. Don't get me wrong, I believe players should be compensated above a full scholarship ride, but NIL should be harnessed with check and balances so there isn't this free for all that is going on. Sorry, I guess I am ranting. I hope I am wrong about this whole situation and rules will eventually be put in place, but so far it does not look good.

I wasn't agreeing to what he was saying as well, but wanted others take on this just in case if I was missing something. I think the PAC12 should have expanded pulling in the Big 12 schools when they had the chance. That would have been a better deal instead of this Alliance.

You all might have already read this article by Jon Wilner on why he believes the Alliance has accomplished its mission. Read this from another blog sight. Wanted to share just in case you haven't. Blast it all you want, but the Alliance has already accomplished its mission WWW.KSL.COM A delay in nonconference scheduling is secondary to larger goals.

I think that is the right ingredient..."Oregon's offense was more efficient and more explosive." I feel under MC we weren't really either of these in most games along with a stout defense.

This would be a great addition. Hope coaches can make Oregon his landing spot!

That is what I was thinking as well.

Hi Charles, You are correct, you stand by your conviction. It's because of those convictions helped kept this site safe, insightful, engaging and successful! Love reading all the contributions everyone has presented to this site. Without those convictions this sight would not be what it is today. Thanks Charles

STOKED!!
