Figuring Out Who Leaves, and Who RETURNS for the Ducks
I am delighted to see some of those names stay, but I sure want Anthony Brown back as we may need him! Article is right here and is free....

How Pac-12 Football Became an Absolute Joke (Whew!)
"Nationally, The Conference of Champions was already thought of an inferior football league. After 2020, forget the inferior moniker, we’re now pitiful." This writer let's it all go with his thoughts...read the rest right here. As a publisher...the only thing I do not like about the article is the writing style of one-sentence paragraphs through-out, as an opinion article should be well-constructed paragraphs as you see from Joshua's article today at FishDuck. Not a stream of consciousness, like this writer, but he makes good points!

The Biggest WHAT-IFs of 2020 in College Football?
Amen Duck-Brother, as that entire staff was under-appreciated by Chip and I would put Steve Greatwood at the top of that category along with Coach Campbell.

FishDuck Article: "Can Oregon Fix Its Coaching Problem in 2021?"
I completely agree and I wrote about it recently here, and cannot understand the weakness in this crucial recruiting area. I wish to welcome you and all the new people who are joining us in droves by the day since this forum recently become "live." And to have nine comments before 8:00 AM Pacific is a good trend-line for this article and the upside growth of this free forum.

FishDuck Article: "Can Oregon Fix Its Coaching Problem in 2021?"
Something simply doesn’t add up. There’s a pretty simple formula to winning in college football, and it starts with getting better players than everybody else. There are other factors needed to build a consistently good program, but bringing in top-tier talent is believed to be the most important. Oregon has done that better than just about any other Pac-12 program ... Read the full article here...

FishDuck Article: "A Letter to Mario Cristobal: Restore Oregon's Offensive Legacy"
I don't know if you were around here since the season began, but we have been talking about the defense as it is the biggest drop-off in the units from last year to this one. So what we have been discussing about is how the Oregon offense needs to out-score the opponent, since the defense is weak this year. So yes--most of us identified the defense, and the problems although I believe there was more issues in the front seven than the back four contrary to what many think. Both sides of the ball are a mess right now, so I don't think you will get any disagreement about the defense. Glad to have you on-board, and would love your thoughts often. Thanks.

The Biggest WHAT-IFs of 2020 in College Football?
Boy there are a bunch of dandies in this article, and it certainly got me thinking about Oregon. --How good would we have been with Sewell, Holland, Graham and Breeze? So many of those to discuss in the off-season! Penei Sewell creates a hole for Verdell in the Pac-12 Championship in 2019...

How a Hall of Fame QB Learned the Nickel Defense

Can the Ducks finally Win In Colorado?
I was going to say that this is our best chance in years because Colorado isn't as good...until I looked at their 7-3 record. They beat Kansas State by 18, USC by 10 and Washington by 23 of whom the Ducks barely squeaked past. The Ducks are going to have their hands full, no doubt. I am going to be curious about how they operate in the low post against much bigger players...

FishDuck Article: Oregon Women Primed to Upset Stanford
The Oregon Women’s basketball team is coming off their first loss of the season, and their first loss in 27 games, to PAC-12 opponent UCLA. In what was a hard fought game, the Ducks had multiple opportunities at the end to either tie or take the lead, but came up just short 74-72. At times in that game the youth ...

Recruiting is nearly done; the 21 previously verballed are now signed LOIs from the December signing date. They are not/cannot bolt. Oregon only has four spots left for a couple of coveted players, and leaving room for transfers, as the portal is going to be quite active in this offseason.
