I have to think we increased our offer after we lost Moore. On another note it feel so depressing to say that. Just free agency, like we missed out on our number 1 target and now we'll throw that money at another free agent.

I know I've said it a ton, but I have no idea why Altman has decided to start recruiting guys who can't shoot, we have no snipers that you can't leave open, it's a complete whiff on getting guys that actually work in today's game. Soares can't shoot, Guerrier isn't reliable at all, Rigsby can't shoot, Williams can't shoot, Bittle can't shoot, no one can shoot on this team other than Richardson, I just don't get it. And if you try to say that Barthelemy and Couisnard can shoot, I would say look at their stats, they aren't knock down shooter either. You can leave anyone open on this team and you wouldn't feel in danger at all other than maybe Richardson.

Nice, getting embarrassed by Utah Valley now, team still can't shoot worth a damn, would be nice if Altman would remember to recruit shooters.

disappointing that this is on some internet site that charges a subscription fee.

We need both if you ask me, you need the present as well the future, I'm not saying this is a failure by the coaching staff, just saying this is a blow to the future of the program since this seems like a good year for QBs, and Moore has established himself as one of the best. Rest of the class looks great though.

Sure looking like we are loosing Moore, kind of ruins this recruiting class, need to have a freshman QB, we can not keep relying on transfer QBs. Then again it sounds like Moore just wants a job handed to him if he's considering going to UCLA.

It's really tough to say what their upside is right now, we'll know a whole lot more after the games against Arkansas and UCLA, split those and I think getting to the second weekend becomes more of realistic expectation than just a upside hope. One thing that that really strikes me is that the Pac-12 is good and deep this year. Stanford, Utah, UCLA, Washington, USC, and Arizona all have either 1 or 0 losses. Nobody in the Pac-12 is .500 or under, it's going to be a dog fight in conference this year, could see at least half the conference get into the tourney depending on how it goes.

I don't hate the Beavs, I find it annoying to lose to them when it happens (in all sports), their fans of course hate us (for some good reasons I think at times), but for the most part I root for them when we aren't playing them or it doesn't help us in some way. So congrats to Smith, he certainly deserves it.

Thought both coaches made some weird decisions, Oregon went really small for stretches when OSU went to the double bigs which is where they began to really put it on the ducks, didn't seem like Oregon responded until OSU went away from what was working, really strange that they left Beers out for so long during the final stretch. In the end Rodgers saved the Ducks, tremendous effort from her.

I also remember a certain Holiday Bowl against Mack Brown many moons ago!

Don't really have a strong opinion on this, I guess it's a decent hire, definitely don't think it's automatic home run, would have preferred someone with more experience. I guess it's at least an easy fit in terms of style. In regards to the possibility of the UTSA QB coming here potentially, watching the film he seems accurate, but the arm strength is a bit lacking I thought, doesn't mean he can't succeed, but it makes it little harder.

I hope Nix will make his decision soon so that Oregon will have more certainty in what they need to do before January rolls around, can't be left wanting a transfer and then have to choose from what is left after all the top guys have already committed. Right now it looks like they might need one if not two transfers, or they need to pick up a freshmen recruit. Have to have at least three scholarship QBs on the roster.

In my opinion she's a big upgrade on Prince, she hustles, she rebounds, she defends, which in all honesty Prince didn't do, Prince could shoot and that's about it for someone her size. We don't need Kyei to score a ton on post ups or mid range, we have Van Slooten to do that sort of stuff, we need someone to do the dirty work.

I appreciate that Lanning is a first year head coach, I appreciate the fact that in general it's good to try to be aggressive where you can, but these past two losses have been madness. I'm more concerned that Lanning isn't learning, you can not have your last 3 drives end on downs when you have been up the entire game, you just can't. You can't expect to run the ball 3 times down inside the 5 when you haven't shown the ability to do that consistently, taking the ball out of your best players' hands. This game just screamed hubris, and that's very very concerning. I'm also concerned that we never seemed to make any adjustment on defense in the second half, it was just bad football. This was an all-time choke job and it was on the coaches making horrible play calls, no adjustments mid game, and a general inability to learn from past mistakes.

Horrible play calling, coaches losing this game, horrible.

Defensive line has been awful, getting road grated all game, LBs have been horrible as well. Lazy, catch the ball and call a fair catch

Horrible, just giving the game away, completely taking plays off, no fire.

He is the worst color commentator in college football, it's not even that close, no enthusiasm, no knowledge, sticks to the same idea for the entirety of the game, biased, just awful.

Rod Gilmore acting like his dog died, you can't be more blatant than him when it comes to showing his own hatred for a team.

Bad spot, but he didn't get the first down on the first run I thought, probably a half yard more though. I'm just baffled that they felt like they needed to measure it on the second run, I mean how blind can you be!?

What are we doing! Lanning again losing the game with awful awful decisions

It was, it's games like this that make me wonder why Richardson can't play like this all the time, he was aggressive, showed leadership, distributed the basketball, he's such a mystery to me. Ware needs to work on his fitness, seemed to gas too early, but he was pretty great tonight, and the walk-ons played hard didn't lose the game for the team, a couple calls go their way and they could have won it.

I know it's impossible, but Walton shut up about Shoe dog! Who cares! This is a incredible performance, talk about bout the damn game.

If they win this game, it's one of the best wins of Altman's career, incredible

The Ducks have 4 legit post players, now on the floor they have none of them, amazing, simply amazing how much bad luck this team has had. Like I said before I can't fault the effort, they're putting their all into this, makes me wish Richardson played like this all the time, he's being aggressive (because he has to).
