Duck fans love their Ducks no matter how we can see them, but we are especially fond of football and as week two of spring practice has begun there are plenty of storylines to get excited about. Charles Nelson has made the transition from wide receiver to defensive back in order to bring some speed and power to a defense …
Jordan Ingram of FishDuck.com was at the Hatfield-Dowlin Complex today to find out what is brewing at the Ducks first spring practice: Bralon Addison has returned to full practice for the Ducks, as he told us that he has been cleared for 100% participation. His enthusiasm to get back to football was palpable – he explained that “the chance to be …
My fellow Duck fans, today Oregon begins spring practice and the 2015 season officially upon us. The Ducks will be chasing a national title once again, but the first step to another national title game appearance starts today. As spring football kicks off, there have been some minor changes to the team. First, freshman quarterback and early enrollee Travis Jonsen …
The Oregon Ducks football team begins spring practices Tuesday and the battle for starting positions amongst new and returning skill position players will begin. For wide receiver Bralon Addison, the road to 2015 spring training has been a long one, but it has finally arrived. This week will most likely be filled with mixed emotions, bringing back the memories of last …
The 2014 season, one of the best in Oregon history, is in the rear view mirror and almost out of sight. One week from today, the future begins, as Head Coach Mark Helfrich and staff embark on their journey into the 2015 college football season. Spring Ball is where players come out of the woodworks. Getting the time to practice with the team, fresh off …
I’ve been an Oregon fan for as long as I can remember. I’m 23 years old, so the Joey Harrington era was when I started becoming a real sports fan as a kid. It seems the Ducks have always had good running backs over the years with players such as Maurice Morris, Jonathan Stewart, and LaMichael James. But even with a focus on the running …
With so much hype surrounding the quarterback battle that is set to take place with the beginning of spring practices, it is easy to overlook the tools that will make or break whoever comes out of that battle on top. Namely the wide receivers. The Ducks are known for their lighting fast offensive attack and their wide receivers are major …
Mike Merrell’s Three-and-Out Lost in the excitement of the returning stars and the hope of stars to come is the quiet backbone of any football team. For the most part, these are the guys who didn’t grab the headlines their freshman years. They’ve been in the program for a year or two or three, possibly redshirting, biding their time behind …
There are a lot of questions whether or not the Oregon Ducks will return in the 2015 season as talented as they ended the previous season. When a team is good, people talk. It’s the same concept for players; when a player is exceptionally good, people talk. Well, people are talking about the loss of Marcus Mariota and how it will …
When it comes to the Oregon Ducks football season this year, the accomplishments the team and program made are unreal. For the team, for individual players, for the coaches and the university, it was more than a successful season; it was a historical one. After the 2013-’14 season ended last year, a group of writers for ESPN wrote team-by-team season …
Since losing to Ohio State on Monday, many people have been wondering if the Ducks might see a drop off in success in the coming years. Whether it was the way in which they lost, or the news that Marcus Mariota would be taking his talents to the NFL (we all knew it was coming), people seem to be questioning the future …
First off, congratulations to Ohio State. As badly as I wanted my boys in white and grey (should’ve been green and yellow) to come out and smother the Bucks, I can admit when we’ve been beaten. The verdict on whether it was actually the Buckeyes who beat us or us who beat us is still out. Either way, keep those heads …
