    Oregon Football Spring Camp Updates: Practice 4

    Early anticipation is high for Evan Stewart with Oregon Ducks

     

    “I think speed, catch radius. I think there’s a lot of things that pop off with Evan,” Lanning said. “I think he saw a lot of opportunity here with what we’ve done with our wideouts here in the past over the last few years.”

     

    “But you know, he has the skill set to be really, really talented player. We had some coaches that were really familiar with them before as well. That’s certainly paid off.”

    I know this has been knocked around as a possibility, but...

    Recent Study Shows Oregon Ducks not as Attractive in Realignment Landscape as Fans May Think

    in Our Beloved Ducks

    Posted

     

    Once you look at this list, you might be scratching your head over this one.  Maybe Tony needs to go back to the drawing board and re-think his 50 factors?

     

    "Tony Altimore, a strategy consultant, recently ranked every FBS program by roughly 50 factors that a television executive and/or university president would find important in further hypothetical realignment. In essence, Altimore made a ranking of which teams would get “drafted” by TV networks when creating a new college football landscape."

     

    "Setting aside the statistical mumbo jumbo, if every FBS program were put into a pot for ESPN and Fox to draft, who gets taken first and who gets taken last?" 

     

    "I found Altimore's model to overrate California schools -- there's no way UCLA is getting taken before LSU, or Cal before Oregon -- but at the very least it's an interesting conversation driver. Or a panic-inducing one, depending on where your school falls."

     

    "Our Analysis: Oregon at No. 27. What that’s saying is that in a draft where conferences pick which teams they want to add to their league, 26 other teams would be selected before the Ducks get picked. No chance. With the national branding, the recent and historic success in multiple sports, and the eyeballs that they draw via television ratings, there’s a zero percent chance that Oregon would be ranked this low."

     

    "With all due respect to Altimore, I don't know if I agree with that result.  Here are teams ranked ahead of Oregon in the Big Ten."

    Bo Jackson puts Oregon Ducks among final schools in recruitment

     

    The Oregon Ducks appear to be in the mix for one of the top running backs in the nation.

     

    It’s not the Bo Jackson who is widely regarded as one of the greatest athletes who ever lived, playing for the Las Vegas Raiders and Kansas City Royals, but rather 4-star RB Bo Jackson, a top-ranked recruit in the class of 2025.

    Oregon Ducks players tease new football uniforms: ‘We got some stuff cooking’

     

    “We got some stuff cooking,” Bassa said with a smile after Oregon spring practice Tuesday. “It was great to sit down there in the room with Kenny and seeing everything he had planned for the year. To the little details that he does with what helmet we’re gonna wear, what socks we’re gonna wear with this. It was amazing just to be part of history. I know this is going to be a huge year with the uniforms and stuff like that. I know people are excited.”

    “The urgency is to get it right.”  Lanning said “You’re not in a hurry to do anything wrong.  it’s about getting it right, it’s not about getting it fast.”

     

    “The reality is we’re a well-oiled machine right now.  We’ve got guys that really do a good job in that room.  So it’s about getting it right it’s not about sprinting to a date.  We don’t have to have somebody tomorrow.”

    Oregon losing Carlos Locklyn isn't a MAJOR problem for 2024 | Oregon Ducks Podcast

     

    Carlos Locklyn caught many Oregon fans off guard when he announced he would be leaving Oregon for Ohio State. Just how big of a problem is that for the Ducks in 2024 and beyond?

     

    On today's episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin goes on to talk about Oregon's season-long expectations in 2024 for the Ducks in the Big 10. What sorts of new scheduling elements might the new league present?

     

    Oregon Men's Basketball needs to hit the transfer portal after losing 3 seniors from this year's Round of 32 team. Vlad Goldin from FAU would be a PERFECT fit with the Ducks.
