Log Haulin No. 11 Share Posted December 19, 2022 If Bo doesn't get hurt, Oregon beats USC in the Pac championship. Williams doesn't win the Heisman and Ducks are playing UGA in CFP. Nix will be a better player next year. Lanning will be a better coach and we should have a better D. Oregon will no longer be 85% underclassmen. We lose most of the O-line but have 3 or 4 behind them that should be very good. Next year could shape up to be a great year 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smith72 Moderator No. 12 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Awesome news! Bo is like having a good experienced coach on the field calling signals and audibles if necessary. 2023 is definitely looking good now. His dad is a coach. When he is done playing wouldn't it be great to have him as an Oregon Coach. I think he could be a great OC or QB coach. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyToBeADuck No. 18 Share Posted December 19, 2022 This is truly exciting and solidifies a critical position of need for our Ducks. Not to mention the value of Bo's leadership. Great positive news. I believe DL and staff will fill in the O Line needs and the Duck offense will score 40 plus points a game. Excited to see DL and the staff bring the players in on D with the skill set to implement and execute DL's scheme. Go Ducks, it's going to be a great week. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annie No. 22 Share Posted December 19, 2022 To be fair, I don't think we really know the status of Moore's ego. I think it's possible he just wanted a trip to UCLA. Or, even if he was/is considering going there, he is only 18 and at that age a tendency to keep one's options open is not uncommon. 2 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any regard, he's off to the B1G if he chooses the Bruins over Oregon. That too might have something to do with his choice. Meanwhile, O has Bo and I'll take that any da_n day!

Duck 68 No. 36 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Bo's return is truly great news on a variety of levels. Bo has proven himself to be an incredibly gifted athlete, but he is also a well grounded leader. His values, as demonstrated by his decision to stay for one more year, provide more evidence of that. One concern, however, is the injury factor. Should Bo be sidelined for a game or more, I would like to have Moore ready to go. I hope Dante considers that possibility, plus the benefits of being a Duck, before he bails on his commitment. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Administrator No. 37 Share Posted December 19, 2022 On 12/19/2022 at 7:47 AM, TheRunningDuck said: Wednesday will tell. No, actually Wednesday will not, IMHO. That day is for the signing of high schoolers, and only Proctor or the JC fellow below might be able to help right away. The major help for the offensive line will hopefully come from a portal transfer between the players from Utep, Rhode Island, Texas and Stanford. They are experienced and can step right in. With the players we have--I am confident about the interior O-Line, and I assuming Josh Connerly playing at left tackle. Between the JC guy below playing some, and just one portal offensive tackle--the OLine should be in good shape. But we will not know about the portal prospects for a while.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 38 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Bo Nix's return keeps Ducks in contention for another special run Bo Nix beat Dante Moore to the punch by about 16 hours. Nix will be Oregon's starting quarterback in 2023, and Moore will be on UCLA's roster instead. No one should minimize the recruiting trail loss. The five-star would've acted as the program's top-rated quarterback signee ever. I think it's also important not to minimize the roster retention win. We have a tendency to become fixated on the potential of something rather than appreciate the known. Nix is a known commodity.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 42 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Bill Oram: Bo Nix’s return is exactly the good news Oregon Ducks football needed Maybe Moore would have stuck with the Ducks if Nix went to the NFL. Maybe not. But I’m confident the Ducks feel better about putting their offense in the hands of their incumbent Heisman candidate than in those of an 18-year-old college freshman. Landing Nix in the first place remains the most promising aspect to Lanning’s tenure so far. The Ducks had a hole at quarterback. Lanning and Kenny Dillingham persuaded a guy whose Auburn roots are deeper than the oak trees at Toomer’s Corner to pack up and move to the banks of the Willamette River.
