  2. Oregon Football will have its highest expectations in a decade in 2024 | Oregon Ducks Podcast Oregon has had a very successful offseason adding quality pieces from the transfer portal whilst getting key returners on both sides of the ball.

  4. All about the Nebraska Cornhuskers: The Nebraska Cornhuskers are one of the Big Ten Conference’s newer members, but their football tradition long predates their change in conference affiliation. A one-time powerhouse on the gridiron is still searching for consistent success this century, but Nebraska’s volleyball team has more than taken up the mantle — and packed the football stadium, too.

  5. This group really did not do their due diligence on Oregon. As far as they are concerned, nothing good will come from the Pac-12 Hmm, tell me again what has Nebraska done since they've joined? Shall we say goose egg?
  6. The future of the Pac-12 is perilous at best, but the conference will reportedly have a new commissioner moving forward. According to Ross Dellenger of Yahoo Sports, the Pac-12 and commissioner George Kliavkoff decided to part ways with a negotiated contract settlement. Dellenger noted the league sees Pac-12 deputy commissioner Teresa Gould as a potential replacement. This comes as anything but a surprise considering the uncertainty and change that has defined Kliavkoff's tenure since he was announced as commissioner in 2021.

  13. It's already happening, Every State will eventually have this same type of law in place. A bill proposed in the Oregon House would amend the state’s law regarding college athlete name, image and likeness to prohibit the NCAA, conferences and any other athletics governing body from taking “adverse action” against an athlete or school due to actual or alleged violations of the governing body’s rules related to NIL. The measure would also permit NIL compensation to be contingent on an athlete attending a particular school and provides college and universities in the state and their employees with liability protections related to NIL activity. HB 4119 was read for the first time last week and a public hearing was held by the House Committee on Higher Education, which will hold a work session for the bill on Tuesday. The bill adds “athletic reputation” to the traits a college athlete can earn compensation from and looks to give liability protections to college and universities in the state, who would be permitted to participate in “identifying, facilitating, enabling or supporting opportunities for a current student athlete to exercise the student athlete’s” NIL rights without fear of penalty from the NCAA or other athletic governing body. As proposed, the bill would stop the NCAA or other athletics governing body from preventing a college or university or athlete from participating in college sports, “accept a complaint, open an investigation or take any other adverse action against” a school or athlete as the result of “a violation, or an alleged violation, of the rules or regulations of the athletic association, conference or organization related to a student athlete exercising the student’s (NIL) rights.” Proposed Oregon House bill would amend state NIL law to stop NCAA from penalizing schools, athletes for NIL activities WWW.OREGONLIVE.COM HB 4119 was read for the first time last week and a public hearing was held by the House Committee on Higher Education, which will hold a work session for the bill on Tuesday.

  19. As the next wave of elite wide receivers arrives in 2024, a few standouts from the 2023 college football season are primed for stardom. Gone are superstars such as Marvin Harrison Jr. and Troy Franklin. However, on their respective teams—Ohio State and Oregon—there's a previous 1,000-yard target ready for the featured role. Emeka Egbuka and Tez Johnson are names you should be ready to hear often. Early in the 2024 offseason, eight players stick out as potential household names in the fall. For clarity, the list is not necessarily a reflection of the receivers I believe will collect the most receptions, yards or touchdowns. Many of them will be around the top of those lists anyway, but the focus is players on projected top teams who, if healthy, should have impressive years.

  20. 2024 Way-Too-Early Top 25 Pre-Spring College Football Rankings: Shakeups in top 10 The chaos won’t stop. It’s nearly Valentine’s Day, and the coaching carousel keeps on spinning with Chip Kellybolting UCLA for the offensive coordinator job at Ohio State on Friday. Both signing days are in the books, but various 30-day portal windows keep opening and closing, creating additional transfer player movement. Kelly’s departure from Westwood marks the ninth FBS head coach opening since the national championship game. Nick Saban’s retirement created a wave of movement, and the cycle keeps stopping and re-starting since. So following the flurry of coaching changes and roster turnover, On3’s Way-Too-Early-Top 25 for 2024 already needs an update less than six weeks into the year. Georgia holds steady at No. 1, but there’s lots of shakeup in the rest of the Top 10. Meanwhile, programs like Washington (which lost its head coach and has seen its roster gutted with NFL departures and transfers) and Iowa no longer ranked at all as other schools (see: NC State, Texas A&M) have had more impressive offseasons. 2024 Way-Too-Early Top 25 Pre-Spring College Football Rankings: Shakeups in top 10 WWW.ON3.COM .
  21. One of the top members of the Oregon Ducks analyst staff is heading on to take a new job at a higher level, with a report on Monday morning coming from ESPN’s Pete Thamel that offensive analyst Jordan Salkin is expected to take a new role with the Cincinnati Bengals starting this offseason.

According to the report from Thamel, Salkin will be an offensive assistant under Zac Taylor with the Bengals.

  22. UCLA didn’t waste much time to find a replacement for Chip Kelly. DeShaun Foster will be the next head coach, UCLA announced on Monday morning, as the Bruins have settled on an all-time great. Foster is in the UCLA Hall of Fame, played 7 seasons in the NFL and has been an assistant coach since 2017. Former coach Chip Kelly left last week to be the offensive coordinator at Ohio State.

DeShaun checks all of those boxes and then some. He is a leader of men and a true Bruin. I am excited to partner with him as we usher UCLA Football into an exciting new era.” UCLA announces hire of all-time great to replace Chip Kelly SATURDAYOUTWEST.COM UCLA didn't waste much time to find a replacement for Chip Kelly as the Bruins settled on an all-time great and long-time assistant.

  24. We know form a previous post Oregon's win-total in the BIG. Here's a look compared nationally. The past couple of months in college football have been spent with teams across the nation jockeying for positions by making additions to their roster through the transfer portal and high school recruiting ranks. Now that we are hurdling towards the spring football season, it’s about to be time for fans to get a look at what those new-look rosters actually shape out to be, which will give us a better sense of who will lead the way in the upcoming historic 2024 season. For the most part, we already have a pretty decent sense of who is going to be at the top of the sport, though, with some traditional powers like Georgia and Ohio State taking early pole position, while other players like Texas and Oregon get set for what could be successful campaigns as well. This past week, FanDuel Sportsbook set out their initial win-total bets for the season, setting over/unders for each team in the Power 4 conferences. The Ducks are projected to be one of the best teams in the nation, so it makes sense that their win total is among the highest in the sport going into the spring. Take a look at where Oregon’s win total stands compared to the other top teams in the nation: Oregon Ducks with one of nation’s highest win-totals entering 2024 DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM The Oregon Ducks have one of the highest win totals for the 2024 college football season, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
