NJDuck Moderator No. 2 Share Posted August 2 From Steven A Rivals New Feature, Thursday Roundup THE BEGINNING OF A NEW ERA For those that only read articles on the front page, there was some news we shared on the message boards this week. Starting today, I will take over as the publisher for Duck Sports Authority. My mission was simple when I asked to take on this role: return Duck Sports Authority to what it used to be. The difficult reality is that the recruiting world today is vastly different than it was a decade ago. Recruits are building their own brands and often break their own news. We can still get inside information, but the staff at elite football programs are doing a much better job at keeping some things quiet. So, we adjust and move towards what we can bring of value to our customers and I think that is more and better recruiting content.

NJDuck Moderator No. 5 Share Posted August 16 Thursday Roundup: The week that was in Oregon football OL Recruiting: No Cause for Concern—Yet The Oregon Ducks faced a setback in their offensive line recruiting this week with Aaron Dunn's commitment to Utah. Despite this loss, there is no immediate cause for alarm. Last year, Oregon signed just four offensive linemen and currently has three committed for 2025. With a pressing need for at least one more lineman, the Ducks' coaching staff is at a critical juncture in their recruiting efforts. The pool of elite offensive linemen is narrowing, making top prospect Michael Fasusi a challenging target for Oregon. The staff may need to pivot by focusing on players already committed elsewhere or reevaluating lower-ranked prospects. Flipping committed players is notoriously difficult, so strategic persistence will be key. While Dunn's departure is disappointing, it underscores the ongoing necessity for effective recruiting.
