idontrollonshobbas No. 1 Share Posted December 26, 2022 In case you missed it, from The Athletic on 12/21 Wasserman: The SEC has reached Oregon, and people don't like it THEATHLETIC.COM This is the new world we're living in. Either figure it out and win or complain about it and lose. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only posted it because I was able to read it without an Athletic subscription so I assumed that it wasn't paywalled....perhaps because it is nearly a week old now? In any event, I am unable to delete it at this point, or I would. My intentions were to follow protocol, so I beg forgiveness. A summary follows in case others are unable to access the article. Wasserman lists the Oregon signing day flips and last minute 5-star signings as an indication that Oregon is efforting to stay in the major leagues of college football, namely the NCAA blue bloods. He cites Phil Knight's wealth as the main reason for this ability and likens our class to last year's Texas A&M class. The schools we are afflicting include: Georgia, USC, Baylor, LSU, Texas, tOSU, Notre Dame, etc. He further suggests that Dan Lanning's SEC experience provides him with the insight into what it takes to have a championship roster and he is using Oregon's (read: Phil Knight) resources to try and cultivate a championship team quickly.....following the path of the aforementioned Universities. Hence, the scorn of the elites Edited December 26, 2022 by idontrollonshobbas brevity 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pennsylvania Duck Moderator No. 4 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I googled Oregon Recruiting Like SEC Team, the Wasserman article came up at the top. Clicked on it and was able to read entire article. Recommended read. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
