Duck 1972 No. 2 Share Posted December 29, 2022 We take their QB. They take our coach. Don't know if I believe that's a fair trade. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Marsh No. 3 Share Posted December 29, 2022 He's a target... So we'll have to wait and see if it goes anywhere. Also remember that Prowledge was at Baylor last year. So this wouldn't be an entirely surprising move for him. I do feel like our defense is finally figuring itself out. So we will just have to see how this all plays out.

OregonDucks No. 4 Share Posted December 29, 2022 If Powledge does indeed take the Baylor position, I hope that the Ducks look at Anthony Newman as a potential replacement. He played for Oregon and had a long and successful NFL career. He would certainly have the players' respect. I believe that he has been the DC for a Portland area private school. He bleeds green and yellow, and has been a wonderful ambassador for the program. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
