Duck 1972 No. 2 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Everyone is forgetting that it's not just Conerly that we are beating out USC on. DB Florence, DL Pome'e and now WR Kasper also. Let's get the story straight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drake Moderator No. 3 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Well stated opinion. A poor coaching hire would have been a huge set back for Oregon. Winning recruiting battles started very quickly and battling other high profile teams for top recruits is now continuing to be the norm. We have a staff that is up to the task. Making sports headlines because you are winning those recruiting battles draws the type of attention that we need. Top talent will definitely notice. I am a big fan of what I see and hear happening. I get the feeling that this journey will include a lot more check marks in the near future. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Log Haulin No. 4 Share Posted April 17, 2022 I said from the start, Lincoln Riley is a very good coach. He is not what "Experts " are saying he is. Okie was gradually falling each year across the board under Riley. They are a mess now and Riley knew it was coming. USC got a huge bump in recruiting with the hire. That will taper off and digress each year. I view Conerly as the canary in the coal mine. Riley is not USC's savior. Dan Lanning is the real deal in my opinion. It shows in the success he has had in only 4 months. Oregon will be the Pac-12 standard for another decade. Great leaders are recognized from the start. Dan's rapid rise in the coaching ranks proves this. Every Duck fan that reads or posts to OBDF knows it. USC and Washington know it, it's why are they squawking. Utes have a great leader and coach, Don't hear a lot from them, they don't have to chirp. Ducks are the standard and everyone knows it. Go Ducks!!! 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an epic post, that summarizes what so many feel, but you take it to another level. The Pac-12 standard for the next decade? Count me in! 1 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haywarduck Moderator No. 6 Share Posted April 18, 2022 USC destroys coaches, Oregon makes great coaches. Until the patter changes, nothing else changes, go Ducks. Also agree with the pundit, Dan keeps checking all the boxes, can't wait to see the X' and O's in those boxes! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
