This will be a fun season, and Dan Lanning is going to get the best out of this squad. I fully believe it. That means with a new offense, there will be a ton of new contributors. One of them will end up leading Our Beloved Ducks in touchdowns. Today, I want to explore who we could see being the Touchdown …
Oregon’s Recruiting Strategy’s Major Pitfall
This past Friday, you saw 2023’s superstar QB Dante Moore commit to Oregon. While I’m ecstatic about the pickup for Our Beloved Ducks, I have some reservations about what our recruiting has said about our team recently. With recruits like these, why aren’t we winning every game against PAC-12 opponents? Now, of course, this is a huge can of worms that …
Four Keys to Oregon Football Beating Georgia
Our Oregon football program has been through a lot in the last ten seasons. With highs and lows underneath each new coaching staff, Dan Lanning has arrived. After a promising foundation has been set with coach Mario Cristobal, will Lanning be the one to take us to the championship? In 2022, it’s not likely. However, this will be a huge season for the …
How Oregon Football Will EXPLODE Offensively in 2022
Dan Lanning took the helm as Our Beloved Ducks’ new head football coach this offseason. In just a couple of months, we are going to see if he’s able to right the ship, and hopefully, keep us on the ascension ark that Mario Cristobal developed in years past. I fully believe one edge the Ducks have in 2022 will be the …
Oregon’s QB1: Who Gets The Nod Week 1?
Most of the Oregon fan base believes the spring game can say a lot about the state of Our Beloved Ducks program. Generally, with a returning coaching staff and most of the same pieces, that’s usually the case. However this season, I can’t say I agree. We’re in the earliest stages of our new head coach Dan Lanning’s command. But …
Should Oregon Football Fear USC?
This has been a turbulent offseason to say the least for Oregon. On top of the Mario Cristobal fiasco and a ton of talent jumping ship, there’s a new head honcho in Los Angeles. Lincoln Riley is set to stabilize the program with championship-contending culture after years of high turnover at head coach. How does this impact the Oregon Ducks’ future of recruiting? …
The Temporary Nature of 2022 College Football
The world of football is in a position unlike anything we’ve seen before. Players have grown with star power over their respective team’s coaching staffs and management to an unprecedented point, and the fallout is beginning to culminate with both coaches and players. Even middling talent has begun a movement to jump ship with higher and higher volume, leaving their …
Kayvon Thibodeaux Cannot Fall in the 2022 NFL Draft
Narratives are manufactured to orchestrate reaches and steals in the NFL Draft every offseason. Whether that result be intentional or not, the associated narratives often hold little validity. Here’s what people are saying about Kayvon Thibodeaux, one of Our Beloved Ducks’ best and brightest. Thibodeaux’s “Character Issues” This is the most dumbfounding narrative to me. Since he has interests outside of football, …
Oregon’s Pass Rush Situation in 2022
The offseason is officially in full swing with the NFL culminating in a Rams’ Super Bowl victory yesterday. We now can prepare for spring football, focus on the new faces on Our Beloved Ducks’ roster, and set expectations for the 2022 season. Today, let’s hone in on a big question mark for the defense: what’s going to come of a …
Travis Dye OUT: Who Earns the Job?
This transfer surprised me more than former head coach Mario Cristobal abandoning his post and shipping out to Miami. Lincoln Riley is as good of a college coach as a running back could ask for, but it seemed probable that Travis Dye would take his talents to the NFL next season. Sure, he may not have been a top pick in the …
Robby Ashford Gone: Expectations for the Ducks’ Offseason?
Two days ago, it was announced Robby Ashford would enter the transfer portal. After countless discussions, articles, and efforts from Our Beloved Ducks’ fanbase to figure out what to expect of this team’s offense (that showed wonderful signs of life in the passing game during the season’s concluding bowl game), we see another all-time great recruit heading somewhere new. This …
Why Bo Nix Should NOT Start at Oregon
The transfer portal has given Oregon another quarterback who has had struggles in the past and is pushing for a chance at playing in the NFL. Bo Nix I feel is more complete as a quarterback than Anthony Brown is (or was at this respective stage of his transfer), there’s just one major issue I have with Our Beloved Ducks’ …
