Oregon’s QB1: Who Gets The Nod Week 1?

Alex Heining Editorials, Recruiting

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 …

Explosion Plays, Fast-Tempo, 80+ Plays…Do You Believe It?

Charles Fischer, Mr. FishDuck Editorials

For many of us fans of the original Oregon Spread Offense under Coaches Mike Bellotti, Chip Kelly and Mark Helfrich, the excitement is palpable about the scoring potential of the 2022 Oregon offense. New Head Coach Dan Lanning and Offensive Coordinator Kenny Dillingham have made many bold proclamations about their goals, intent and process for the upcoming season. I was …

Oregon’s Explosive Offense Has Officially Returned

Joshua Whitted Editorials

Dan Lanning made his mission crystal clear from day one. Under his watch, he wants Oregon to have an explosive offense. From his introductory press conference to his comments after the spring game, Lanning has been dead set on generating big plays. But it’s one thing to say that in January. It’s another to actually deliver on gameday. In the …

Oregon Ducks, Pac-12 Flop in the Draft

Darren Perkins Editorials

While it is always a great sense of pride when an Oregon Duck is selected in the first round of the NFL Draft, especially in the Top 10 (Kayvon Thibodeaux was picked 5th overall by the New York Giants), it is of even greater frustration that no other Ducks were selected. I went to the Paul McCartney concert here in Spokane …

Former Oregon Lineman’s Injury a Failure of Leadership

Jordan Ingram Editorials

It’s hard to see former Oregon Ducks football players and coaches seated in a courtroom. There is a stark difference between the electric greens and yellows of Autzen Stadium roaring with glee at full capacity and the hushed, drab, beige-colored rooms of the Lane County Courthouse. For most folks, this is not a happy place. They don’t sell nachos in …

Fun Matters More than Ever for Oregon Football

David Marsh Editorials

The biggest thing that keeps getting repeated during spring practice is that the team is having fun again. Mario Cristobal was and still is all about the “grind” — and there is absolutely a time and place for that. However, it really does seem like Cristobal’s culture was wearing thin on the players. By contrast, Dan Lanning has breathed new …

Coach Kenny Dillingham’s New GTE Sweep Read

Charles Fischer, Mr. FishDuck Analysis

The 2022 Oregon Spring Game was a fun unveiling of Dan Lanning‘s Ducks, it also gave us a glimpse into a few parts of the Kenny Dillingham offense. I immediately found a favorite play and had to take some time away from Captain Cooks Casino NZ to break down this “explosion” play  that went for 44 yards, and share it …

Critical Analysis: Oregon Spring Game Hits and Misses

Charles Fischer, Mr. FishDuck Editorials

Like most observers of the Oregon Spring Game, I was pleased overall with the beginning of the Dan Lanning era. The discussion on our forum covered most of the major points, but I thought I’d  take some time away from playing Casino Rewards Captain Cooks to share what I believe are “hits” and “misses” of this 2022 Oregon Spring Game. …
