I love all three of these guys....we are fortunate to have these choices. Butterfield has looked the more natural passer and reader of defenses, but Ty clearly has the physical skillset. Nix has SEC conference experience and knowledge of the offense clearly a capable high quality college QB. With Georgia and BYU up in Games 1 and 2, and a first-year coach, you have to think Nix is the odds-on favorite to start. If not, then he was beaten out by a QB with NFL potential. Someone will have a tough decision to make after Spring. Maybe potential QB recruits are waiting to see how things shake out before committing. If someone transfers, another program is going to get a great QB....

Yes, it would.....also to rate the efficacy of the individual scouts/raters

Yes, yes.....overroasted and bitter. Charbucks, favored by brand worshippers who drink milkshakes and call them coffee.

If I were a smart financial/actuarial type, I would figure out how to bundle future Duck football revenues into NIL deals with an annuity device that provides a basic income for the athlete for their lifetime and scaled earnings based on a combined scorecard of personal, unit and team goals while in the Duck uniform. These incentives would encourage commitment to the team while playing, as well as, a commitment to the "progrum" after their career to insure that future team revenues are as high as possible to maintain the expanded NIL payouts.

Thanks for posting these quotes, Charles.....I avoid those sites.

Football Disneyland? Seems like a backhanded compliment. Does that make the UW "Football Enchanted Forest" or maybe "Football Wallyworld"?

Exactly.....he managed to say a lot without saying anything. He has a career to think about. Nonetheless, he seemed to say that Ty was always 1b. No shame in that....given the level of HS football he came from and AB's experience.

Better than Jerry Adams? I will need to be convinced of that....

Most likely related to academics. Maybe he wants to finish a credential at WSU this Spring and then transfer afterward?

You can owe me.

Washington recruits are always overrated....

Recruiting ranking firms are incentivized to engage online clicks, not to be accurate.

Stubblefield may have been the straw that stirred the drink.

I doff my proverbial cap to thee.

I think we needed another RB and its good to get a guy the coach knows. This move seems to lend credence to a couple of other recent suppositions, namely Seven McGee from RB to WR and Brian Addison staying on the defensive side of the ball.

I think someone once referred to this as the Law of Unintended Consequences.

Thanks, Kid......great post. You mentioned that KT called out Mario. I musta missed that, can you paraphrase his criticism, or point me to a source. Thanks, IDROS

I'm with you....and this was the O's decision, according to Ken Goe. I might just renew my Oregonian subscription now. Unless Fentress is promoted.

I was thinking.....

If UCLA does shift games to SOFI, and honestly why wouldn't they other than tradition, and the NLI, Portal, CFP era continues to undermine the bowl games, the Rose Bowl stadium maybe left behind. The stadium itself is decrepit (though I love it on Jan 1) so how do you justify the investment to update it?

I am betting you picked up on the Dan Pastorini refence though, right? 🥸

I realize Bill isn't everyone's cup of tea. But, he is a wonderful human that helps more people than we know because he never talks about it. He is a parent, teacher, coach, mentor to youth extraordinaire. He did a 90 second promo spot for Oregon last night that is invaluable to our tourism industry. And, who doesn't enjoy a good Dan Pastorini reference during a mens college basketball game in 2022?

Not to be contrarian, but just because one does not understand Bill's utterances, does not mean HE is inane ipso facto. Once in a while you get shone the light In the strangest of places if you look at it right

This theory might help explain Jo Mo's sudden health decline 3 weeks later....
