  2. Dan Lanning addresses those blowout playoff losses"But that's what it's about. It's about taking the next step and growing. We certainly had a young team. Last year we had a lot of young guys that were able to contribute. But you don't look for excuses, you look for opportunities for growth." "What I do know is that we're going to have a stronger team in a lot of ways next year because of the experience those guys were able to get. They all took it and said, 'let's charge forward and figure out what's next.'" "I think we have the smartest team since I've been here as far as guys understanding assignments, what they have to accomplish." Lanning interview at around the 17:09 mark: Autzen ZooDan Lanning addresses those blowout playoff lossesOn his college football podcast former Oregon tight end and six-year NFL vet George Wrighster asked Dan Lanning about the Ducks blowout losses in the playoffs.

  4. The Oregon Ducks equipment surplus sale has long carried a Christmas morning feel for fans: racks of team-issued gear, rare finds and limited pieces all available for purchase. The Oregon Ducks equipment surplus sale has long carried a Christmas morning feel for fans: racks of team-issued gear, rare finds and limited pieces all available for purchase. But according to collectibles insider Darren Rovell, that same tradition also opens the door to a larger conversation about value in today’s NIL era. Rovell, a longtime collector and founder of Cllct, points to Oregon as the No. 1 most powerful brand in the collectibles space and believes the program sits at the center of where the market could be heading. When Rovell posted on X that Oregon is leaving millions of dollars on the table, Oregon Ducks on SI reached out to him to get further context. The sale is set for Saturday, May 2, at the Moshofsky Center next to Autzen Stadium, running from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., or until all items are sold. Past sales have included limited-edition Nike gear. As NIL and memorabilia intersect in today's college football, Rovell’s perspective highlights both the demand surrounding Oregon’s gear and the broader evolution of the collectibles market.

  5. Oregon Target Anthony Cartwright III Turns Heads With Recruiting UpdateA massive Oregon Ducks recruiting target releases huge news in his recruiting timeline. The visit slate will begin with the Spartans, who are scheduled to get him in on May 29. This is likely to be his lone visit in May when it comes to his schedule, but anything can change at any moment. He will follow that visit up with a trip to Miami on June 5. This is just one week after visiting the Spartans. These two visits will set the tone for his third and final visit, which is slated to be with the Ducks on June 19. This is two weeks after his Miami visit. Big Ten Program Battles to Earn Official Recruiting VisitThis means one or two things: either Cartwright will take a gap weekend, or he is going to visit someone around the 12th of the month. If he were to take a gap, this could be considered a major advantage for the Ducks, as they would not only be gaining his final visit (recency bias could factor in), but he would also have time in between to let the high of visiting another program wear off. It is likely that teams will push for him to visit on this date, and the one to watch out for is Michigan.

  7. Jhop's Post-Spring Big Ten Power RankingsI’ve read a lot of Big Ten rankings. Some before and some after the conclusion of Spring ball for most. (Washington’s is Friday night) It feels like most have Ohio State as the team to beat. And typically Oregon next at the No. 2 spot. I think for me you could argue either one and I think the difference between the two is pretty thin. Both are really good teams. So I’ll offer mine up with that caveat above noting I really see them as 1A and 1B more than anything else. After that, well, pick your poison. Oregon – I have the Ducks at No. 1 because I think they are a more complete team than Ohio State. We all watched Ohio State players fill the first round of the NFL draft, the top ten even, and you are going to convince me they are better? I don’t buy it. They are good, but no way they are better. Again, just my two cents. Ohio State – Like I said, they are good and the schedule isn’t a killer for them. I will not be remotely surprised if we are watching these two battle for the Big Ten championship at the end of the regular season. Indiana – Like Ohio State, I have a tough time believing this is a more talented team than last season. But I do believe in Curt Cignetti and his coordinators and the fact they are incredible coaches. I’m certain they will be good and a team you hate facing. But I do think there is a difference between the two above and Indiana and everyone below. Penn State – Yeah I know, I’m crazy right? Well try and convince me there is an easier schedule among the teams in my 3-7 range. No Oregon. No Ohio State for Matt Campbell and his new energy. I think PSU is poised to surprised and might even make it into the playoffs with some luck. Like I said, I know I’m crazy. (But possibly right.) USC – I’m an Oregon homer sure but I’m not dumb. This is a HUGE season for Lincoln Riley to quiet the ‘fire Riley’ chants. Which of course have gone away in the offseason once again. He made a move at DC, which might be lateral? If it’s an improvement, I like the fact he returns his quarterback and did recruit some players on the LOS. The schedule isn’t easy but it’s manageable. Iowa – Kind of a sneaky pick here. They will be tough each and every week. They will pound you. They will play a consistent level of football. They have Ohio State but they don’t have Oregon or Indiana or Penn State. Watch out for the Hawkeyes. Michigan – The only reason I have Michigan even this high is because I believe they made the best hire of the offseason. They will be tough, balanced, disciplined. The problem is they will only go as far as Bryce Underwood takes them. That right there is the gamble for this team. They also have an absolutely BRUTAL schedule with all of my top four teams and Oklahoma. Washington – The only reason I have Washington this high is I believe the quarterback they sued into returning is a good player. He will make some plays for UW and probably help them win a game or two they shouldn’t. I don’t think this team overall is better than last year’s team however and that is going to be trouble for Jedd Fisch as he once again tries to get out of Seattle at season’s end. UCLA – Yes I’m crazy. Just watch. UCLA will make a surprise run that most don’t see coming. And the schedule isn’t a tough one. Illinois – Thought they had a team last year only to disappoint. I don’t think it will happen two years in a row. On3Jhop's Post-Spring Big Ten Power RankingsSince everyone else is doing one, I figured I might as well. The Big Ten is one of, if not the most competitive conferences in football. Your season could be one or lost with an injury, having just a

PFF 2027 mock draft tabs clear favorite for the national championshipThis week Pro Football Focus released its first mock draft for 2027, and Lanning and the Ducks are set to smash all previous records. with an astounding five players projected for the first day, a level of NFL talent that rivals former national champion teams at Georgia and Ohio State. NFL talent is one of the surest indicators of true national championship potential. The Ducks are likely to have as many as 10 to 13 players taken next year, and in addition to these five, Evan Stewart and Bear Alexander could play their way into the first round with stellar senior seasons.

No way will Texas Tech color outside the lines, will be big mistake. RUMOR: Oregon QB Dylan Raiola Transferring Again?Rumors are growing about another move for Dylan Raiola, even though he just transferred a few months ago. The Oregon quarterback joined the Oregon Ducks after leaving the Nebraska Cornhuskers this offseason.

On today's episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin discusses how big of a season RB Jordon Davison could have in 2026. What about fellow sophomore Nasir Wyatt? Could he get to 10 sacks?

  20. The biggest problem with the Dylan Raiola transfer to Texas Tech buzz is simple.The idea of Oregon Ducks quarterback Dylan Raiola transferring to Texas Tech has fans talking, but one major problem makes the entire scenario hard to take seriously.

  21. College football post-spring top 25: Texas on top, Texas Tech tumbles amid Brendan Sorsby absenceA shocking gambling scandal forces a manual override of our analytics model, dropping Texas Tech out of the top 10 as the Longhorns claim the No. 1 spot1. Texas Arch Manning. Cam Coleman. Hollywood Smothers. Texas' offense is loaded with superstars. But will Steve Sarkisian dial up some plays down the field? He seems more open to that these days after the dink-and-dunk era under Quinn Ewers. The defense is loaded, too, and veteran play-caller Will Muschamp's arrival only bolsters hopes that the Longhorns will be a more consistent bunch. Week 2 against Ohio State promises to be electric. 2. Ohio State The Buckeyes will be among the more potent offenses in the country with a load of talent returning, including QB Julian Sayin and all-everything receiver Jeremiah Smith. Questions abound with the defense, which must replace eight starters for the second straight season. Matt Patricia worked wonders in his first season calling defensive plays. Can he do it again? If so, the Buckeyes will win the Big Ten -- and possibly the national championship. 3. Oregon Might Oregon be the most physical team in the country? The Ducks' defense was dominant throughout the spring, ending the session with nine sacks at their annual spring game. Depth is everywhere. Former five-star Dylan Raiola will be a backup to Dante Moore at quarterback. The feeling here is that this might be Dan Lanning's best team yet. 4. Georgia Georgia has everything it needs to win yet another SEC title. But will the Bulldogs' pass rush return to their elite form of two or three years ago? Kirby Smart's defensive line had its worst season yet in getting to the quarterback in 2025. That needs to improve for the Bulldogs to advance beyond the second round of the CFP. Auburn transfer Amaris Williams suffered a knee injury in the spring, dampening hopes of that pass rush improving. 5. Notre Dame We'll talk all summer about Notre Dame's "easy" schedule. Critics will poke holes in the Irish's championship plans, fueled mostly by the PR hit they received for whining about their exclusion from the CFP and opting out of a bowl game in December. But don't let that cloud the true evaluation of the team's talent and a top-5 coaching staff. 6. Indiana Indiana ruled the sport last fall, running through the schedule with blowout after blowout before beating Miami for the school's first national title. Now we see if Curt Cignetti can implement a plug-and-play philosophy with similar results. The "Moneyball" numbers certainly back up the belief that TCU quarterback transfer Josh Hoover is capable of putting up big numbers after Fernando Mendoza's generational run last season. Our big question: Will the new offensive line gel enough for another Big Ten championship run? 7. Miami Duke quarterback transfer Darian Mensah flashed -- as expected -- in the spring and threw three touchdowns in the Hurricanes' spring game. The ACC's best quarterback will be counted on to do more than Carson Beck, who he replaces. It all starts in the trenches for Mario Cristobal, who pieced together an incredible group on both sides of the ball during last season's run to the national championship game. The offensive line needs to be rebuilt, and we'll keep a close eye on developments as pre-season camp begins in August. 8. Texas A&M Texas A&M had a terrific offseason in the NFL Draft, which is good and bad news after an 11-win season and CFP appearance. The Aggies' returning production is near the bottom of the SEC, but a slew of transfers, led by former Alabama receiver Isaiah Horton, has them primed for another run in the top half of the SEC. Quarterback Marcel Reed returns, which is a big boost as they break in new pieces. The best news out of the spring? The defense looked elite. Northwestern transfer Anto Saka led a pass rush that was described as unblockable. Senior linebacker and captain Daymion Sanford, the designated signal man on the field, was injured in the spring game (leg) and is expected to miss at least a portion of the season. 9. LSU Lane Kiffin might be trying to temper fan expectations in Year 1, but we're not. The offensive line has come together quickly, and pass protection appears solid. Keeping defensive coordinator Blake Baker on staff was a huge win, and we're expecting a big jump. When Arizona State quarterback transfer Sam Leavitt returns from injury in August, we'll get a better read on how potent Kiffin's always-explosive offense will really be this fall, but the pieces are clearly already in place with a load of elite transfers, including many from his run at Ole Miss. 10. Oklahoma The dark horse in the SEC. The Sooners seemed primed to make a big jump this fall after getting back into the CFP last season. The offense was a mess when QB John Mateer played most of the season with an injured hand; he didn't get much help from the running backs, either, leading to a No. 12 ranking in scoring in the SEC. A second season with coordinator Ben Arbuckle should result in a noticeable jump in production for the unit, particularly with Mateer correcting his throwing mechanics. The defense should be elite again, too, with a senior like Peyton Bowen returning. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/college-football-rankings-2026-top-25-post-spring/

  23. Oregon basketball secures the commitment from Boston College starting PG Fred PayneThe Ducks have gone into the transfer portal and landed a commitment from a Power 4 starting PG.Payne is ranked by 247Sports as a three-star transfer portal prospect and the No. 187 overall player in the portal rankings. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound guard gives Oregon a downhill attacker, creator and scoring option at the point guard spot. The Ducks entered the portal cycle needing more ball-handling, more pressure on the rim and another player capable of creating offense off the bounce. Payne checks those boxes after a productive season at Boston College. https://247sports.com/college/oregon/article/oregon-basketball-secures-the-commitment-from-boston-college-starting-pg-fred-payne-283250097/
