Kevin Cline Every elite quarterback covets a great wide receiver (not to say that Oregon’s starting receivers aren’t good enough, because we all saw how well they played last Saturday), cue fresh-off-the-boat true freshman Devon Allen. The 6-foot-0, 187 pound wide receiver from Brophy Prep High School in Phoenix, Arizona, was also one of the country’s top hurdle and sprint …

Kevin Cline Football Recruiting Visits Oregon’s 66-3 showcase victory over the visiting “whatevers” proved equally decisive on the recruiting front. Cornerback Arrion Springs (4-Star/San Antonio, TX/Rivals250) and linebacker Tui Talia (4-Star/Pleasant Hill, CA) joined Oregon’s Big Board. Offensive lineman Sam Jones (3-Star/Highlands Ranch, CO) and hybrid wide receiver Braxton Berrios (4-Star/Raleigh, NC) were in the Autzen stands, Saturday, in what could be …
identi.info The tight end position has been a vital key in the success of Oregon’s rise to fortune and fame. Oregon has seen a perpetual string of stalwart tight ends since the Rich Brooks Era. One tight end in particular made his presence felt in a unique way, and is remembered fondly by many Ducks for his contribution to Oregon’s turnaround & …
This is the first video analysis I have completed in over a year, and I am excited to be in front of the camera again! We will follow the conference rules for video usage while breaking down a very strange play from our game with Nicholls. We will also take a look at some new shining stars on offense that …
Kevin Cline The first week of college football has concluded, and I think it’s safe to say, we were well reminded of why fall is the best of the four seasons. Though it is tough to measure the ability of many teams this early in the season, people around the nation experienced a full dose of excitement in this season’s …
Craig Strobeck Disclaimer: The Oregon Ducks played a very weak opponent on Saturday, and while the boys finally got to hit someone not wearing green and yellow, Nicholls was about as far as it gets from the caliber of opponent Oregon will face later this season. With that disclosure out of the way, Oregon did play 60 minutes of football for …
Craig Strobeck The first game for any new coach is bound to be challenging, but for the head football coach at Oregon, it has been historically very difficult. In fact, only one head coach in the last 65 years, Mike Bellotti in 1995, had won his debut game[1]. On Saturday, Mark Helfrich would try to match Mike Bellotti and do …
Was it worth the wait? After spending all day on my couch watching college games, the last seven football-free months seemed to just melt away. In week one of the season we have had all the excitement a fan could ask. The week saw several FCS teams upsetting FBS squads, BCS schools losing to NON-BCS challengers and a few exciting …
Craig Strobeck The Oregon Ducks demolished FCS doormat Nicholls as expected Saturday afternoon, by a score of 66-3, but the game gave the plucky Colonels some reasons to feel proud, and the Ducks’ coaches areas to improve this season. Speculation that the Ducks would pass more under Coach Helfrich proved unfounded on Saturday. For the first time in history, three …
Kevin Cline Nicholls State had just lost 66-3. Oregon had three 100-yard rushers. The Ducks had a school record 772 yards of total offense. Yet when quarterback Kalen Henderson and running back Marcus Washington walked into the visitor’s tent to answer questions from the press, their demeanor was not one of a team who had just gotten shellacked, but rather, …
dayandadream.com Good morning, Duck fans! It’s football Saturday for the first time in way too long! You know, there really is nothing like the spectacle of big time college football. The speed, the precision, the full stadium, the cheerleaders. I love it all. This weekend marks Game 1 everywhere for teams on the march to the shiny, faceted football, awarded annually …
