It’s over. St. Patrick’s Day, that is. You can put away the green beer now, Corvallis and Seattle. Before it gets any worse. We know what you were up to. We saw you. Our crack photographers, hired just for the occasion, spent a solid 12 hours Saturday documenting the Secret Lives of Beavers and Huskies. We now know you wear …

Josh White FishWrap, FishWrap Archive

March 17th, 2004 was the last time the Ducks found themselves playing in the first round of the NIT tournament. That year, the 16-12 Ducks had drawn the 18-11 Buffaloes from the Big-12. The Ducks were playing post-season March basketball again, and were coming off of just the second stretch of back to back 20+ win seasons in school history. While the record may not look …

FishDuck Staff FishWrap, FishWrap Archive

To put things into proper perspective, we must first describe the setting. Washington state. East slopes of the Cascades. Deep in the heart of Apple Country. Roughly halfway between Pullman and Seattle. Lots of Cougars and Huskies. And right smack in the middle of Wenatchee you’ll also find Luke Gillespie the Duck. Even though the 22-year-old bartender never went to …

Josh White FishWrap, FishWrap Archive

The Oregon Ducks fell behind a tough and talented Colorado team, and played from behind most of the second half. Despite a late scoring surge, in the end their efforts fell short, or sailed long, in the Pac-12 tournament opener. It was Oregon 62 – Colorado 63.

Mark Flores FishWrap, FishWrap Archive

Football Recruiting Twitter: @MarkDFlores follow me for witty remarks and MIGHTY OREGON NEWS!!! Tailback Thomas Tyner’s reaction and Oregon’s offer to offensive lineman Evan Voeller led the news, Saturday, coming out the latest edition of Duck Junior Day.
