Arizona State Football Coach Speculation Swirls Around Oregon Coordinator Kenny Dillingham
Agree and as others have said ASU is a mess. He's got Moore coming next year and can possibly build his resume and wait for something better.

BSU QB Hank Bachmeier Enters Transfer Portal
Lots of issues at BSU according to 'insiders'. Don't know any specifics but have heard via some message boards things are not copacetic with Andy. There is/was some reason Da'Vell Winters left. When AA got the job at BSU he made Da'Vell chief of staff. Then late last year Da'Vell was on Linked In looking for a job. He is now Director of Player Development at FAU working for Willy Taggart.

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words...What are Your Words?
"the thrill of victory" We know the rest of the moniker from the days of Wide World of Sports but I'll leave it out for now and let us savor this one

Best Question / Most Telling (Hilarious) Answer from MC Post Game Presser
Not that it had anything to do with his hospitalization before the Stanford game last year, but Joe and Mario were not getting along at all even before that. Something happened, not sure what but something changed. Multiple people have said the same thing.

Do We Have Any Field Generals on Defense?
I would guess Williams and maybe even Gonzalez.

From the Bleachers: Kenny Dillingham’s ‘Gimme Shelter’ Offense
Oh my- Drex and Charles, you made my day. I am a Stones fanatic and Gimme Shelter is my all time favorite. I still get goose bumps when I hear the opening riff. Kudos to you, for the stellar comparison. Anytime there is a reference to Gimme Shelter it's a good day. Let's hope that storm is threatin' every Pac 12 teams life. In the famous words of Jagger and Richards:

Thanks Miami!
He used to do the same thing when he was at Oregon. He always referred to Alabama as 'the place I was at previously'. Used to drive me crazy ( I don't know why) but why not just say ' I recruited him when I was at Oregon'.
-
Thanks Miami!
My perception as well. I think there is a reason Ed is hanging around Miami. I know one of his son's is an asst there but I am guessing Ed has his eye on that job.

Herm Edwards Fired from ASU
Dilly has a five star QB coming in next year. I think he has the luxury to wait. The NCAA has not weighed in on ASU yet and they may get hit hard. I can't imagine Dilly wants to start out with that mess. He could sit for another year, build some more cred and possibly have some better choices. Just my two cents.

Did You Hear All the SLAPS Out There After the Game?
Thanks East Bay Duckdad for a great post. How long has it been since we were able to say this: Oregon out schemed and out toughed BYU.

Is it Just Me?
I don't think we're being thin skinned, just stating facts. I'm all for well thoughout reasoned opinions. His opinions are neither.
-
Is it Just Me?
yes, that is what I thought too. He seemed to like portraying PK and Oregon as the evil empire and OS as the clean, apple pie and Mom operation in Corvallis. Side note, I heard that at the OS home opener which was well after the debacle in Ga that the OS band played Georgia On My Mind.
-
Is it Just Me?
Agree that OS is definitely taking some steps forward. They are playing better football for sure. I could see them beating WSU but not so sure about USC. I saw only bits and pieces of the SC/Stanford game and SC did look decent. Their defense did allow Stanford 600 yds of offense so that is interesting. OS also travels to Utah and I could honestly see them losing to both SC and Utah. Just my guess at this point and nothing more.

Washington and Oregon Open as 3 Point Favorites.
Agree that they are factoring in home field. If the game were in Provo I would be really concerned. I am still concerned but hoping the home crowd is revved up and Autzen is loud.
-
Is it Just Me?
There is a new guy at the O, Bill Oram and it seems he has sort of taken Canzano's place as the featured sports columnist. I have read his work several times now and wow, maybe I am wearing my green and yellow glasses when I read, but sheesh he sure does seem to have a love affair with OS. He seems to always find a way to get a little dig in at UO in every column and today's was really interesting. I normally take all that stuff with a grain of salt and chuckle but there seems to be a pattern. Any others seeing this or just me? Not much in the grand scheme of things but it has struck me as a little interesting.

That Was a Better "Get-Well" Game Than Anticipated...
It seems that way to my untrained eye.

For All OBD Members...Better Read This
Thank you for saying this. Much appreciated. The game has been beaten to the proverbial pulp by both local and national media.

We Have One Data Point!
Well reasoned post Hayward. I get in the heat of battle things get said. We all do it but some of the stuff yesterday was off the scales. I mean we had complaints about the coach's attire for pity sakes. It's very easy to coach from the comfort of our couches and see a replay 3 times and then make a decision or decide a different play might have been better. No doubt we were all disappointed but some of the commentary was a bit much and based on one game against a team that very likely could repeat as national champions.

Suddenly, the Transfer Dilemma Rears Again
Remember, we don't see practice and we are certainly making a lot of assumptions..... Just saying

Very well said. Kudos to you for your sage and wise words.

Ruh-Roh! Travis Dye Throws Shade at Oregon/Cristobal
Yes, there are rumors and rumblings that Mario's and Feld's acts were wearing thin. I have never been able To specifically confirm it though. There have been rumors that a number of the wide receivers would have transferred out as well . Again unsubstantiated. One thing that was interesting to me was on media day almost every player talked about football being 'fun again'. 'Fun again' being the operative phrase.

What's Better Than to Start a Season Watching Scott Frost Lose a Close One?
Clearly water underthe bridge at this point but I was told by multiple people inside the AD that Frost did not have as much playcalling responsibility as some thought. Again hard to look backwards but the people who told me certainly would have known.
