October 7, 20223 yr No. Bucky Irving emerging as lead back for Oregon Ducks WWW.OREGONLIVE.COM Irving leads Pac-12 running backs with 7.54 yards per carry,
October 7, 20223 yr Administrator No. And credit the offensive line for creating the holes and Dillingham for an offense that creates cut-back lanes for the RBs! Mr. OBD
October 7, 20223 yr Moderator No. Our running game was boring to watch for a few years. A change in the offense, coupled with a RB like Bucky Irving, has completely changed that for me. He is both physical and elusive….Fights for those yards after contact. Entertainment value has increased dramatically in just a few games. Edited October 7, 20223 yr by Drake
October 7, 20223 yr Moderator No. Love Coach Locklyn. Who is the best RB in the room…answer is classic. About 3:40 mark Edited October 7, 20223 yr by Drake

But Irving has absolutely put the pop back in the running game for the Ducks.
October 7, 20223 yr No. Was not impressed with ANY of the committee of running backs in game #1 against Georgia. I was prepared for a season of mediocre offensive football. Whoops! As a former boss told me frequently over the years, "Withhold judgment until evaluation is complete." While evaluation is not yet complete, I've seen enough in weeks 2-5 to know that my initial impression of Irving (and Whittington, to a lesser degree) was premature. Irving is the real deal.
October 7, 20223 yr No. Soon to add one more to the stable in 23. The room seems to be in excellent hands for sure.
October 7, 20223 yr No. Gotta say, I’m impressed and excited about the Ducks running game. Great depth at RB and a talented O-line paving the way. What’s not to like? Right now Bucky is my favorite, dude is running hard. From what I’ve read Cardwell is the most talented, can’t wait to see him when he is healthy. And then you got Whittington and James. 4 very good RBs. I have been very impressed with true freshman James. Tough runner, he is good now, will be very good or great in the future. I was hoping he was gonna be a Bulldog, glad he is a Duck though.

October 7, 20223 yr No. I remember thinking I would miss Travis Dye...lol Man, our core now is head and shoulders above Verdell and Dye. Its not even close
October 7, 20223 yr No. I love Bucky. I haven't been this excited about an Oregon running back since Lamichael James, De'Anthony Thomas, and Kenjon Barner. I'm also excited to see Byron Cardwell back in the action. I think he could be another great.
