OL/DT Alex Harrison

I read on another site he wants to visit, which seems strange given how many OL's UO has and that the class is getting full. Maybe they see him as a possible DT? He's got the size and nasty streak.

As usual, there's a Rivals article already saying he plans to visit. USC and UO as well as some others previously scheduled. HE seems to like playing D in HS. Maybe he's a potential DT/NG? It's funny how bigguns never get listed as "athletes."


"Harrison has scheduled his official visit to Nebraska for the October 5 Northwestern game. He has also scheduled officials to Arizona State for when they play USC on November 9, and he also plans to take officials to Oregon and to USC before coming to his college decision."

Clemson, SC- Death Valley

My wife and I traveled to South Carolina for the week 1 opener between Clemson and Texas A&M. Death Valley was an amazing place to see a game. 81,500 fans. Hot as hell! We sat near the Clemson sideline and in the midst of pure Clemson fans.

I can honestly report that we should be proud of Autzen Stadium. Death Valley certainly was loud but Autzen is as loud or louder!

I did like some of their in game activities. They have sections spell out Clemson going around the stadium as a cheer. We could do the same to go along with our Go Ducks cheer. They also have the BCS championship logo for each year they have been to the playoffs. I would like to see the same hanging from the south side of the stadium or near the roof of the north side.

We also toured Georgia and Tennessee’s stadiums. Athens was a great community, very welcoming and great food.

Our path to #10 vs # 12 Game Day Matchup with huskies

FIRST we both need to win our next 2 games. Pooches have Stanford & AZ on the road.

Week 6:
Aub will beat Florida
Mich will beat Iowa

Week 7:

Iowa will beat Penn St
LSU will hand Florida its second straight loss...GOODBYE gators
OK will beat Texas

That removes #10, 11, and 12
Florida, Texas, and Penn State
And #14 Iowa

Oregon is now #10 and Washington #12

***With Penn State now not top 15...the only other game in the running for Game Day...
Penn State vs Mich isn’t in the mix!

Stay tuned for what I see happening in week 9, 10, and 11....after we beat the butt sniffing ball licking lawn pooping purple pooches at their place on Game Day!!!

Mariota in a grove

Just as the talks of benching him pick up, he gets it going. Anyone know if Taylor Lewan is playing in this game? His suspension should be just about up. At the half:

"Marcus Mariota hit a groove in the passing game especially with rookie WR A.J. Brown. The two connected three times for 94 yards and two touchdowns. Corey Davis chipped in with 4 receptions for 75 yards including a 23-yard TD. Mariota ended the first half having completed 14 of 19 passes for 189 yards and 3 TDs. Titans lead the Falcons 24 - 7."

And by the way, it looks like KB isn't playing for Atl.. Did he get a concussion last week?

Looking ahead

Since we don't have a game today - and we added two more really good players for the future - I thought I'd check out my crystal ball (which is really an old, scraped up glassy - remember those? - that I found on the street) and see what's coming next year.

Here ya go (and if someone doesn't shoot this down completely, I'm going to be very disappointed):

QB: Shough, Millen, Butterfield
One of the best trios of QBs in Oregon history. Seriously..each may not be an all-timer, but the group as a whole sets us up for years to come.

RB: CJ Verdell, Trey Benson, Sean Dollars
A trio of RBs that will get the job done individually and as a group. Three definite P5 level talents that will take advantage of the OL in front of them.

OL: Penei Sewell, Chris Randazzo, TJ Bass, Malaesala Aumavae-Laulu, Steven Jones
What we lose in experience, we make up for in talent. This is Coach Cristobal's first unit full of his OL and I think we'll see them perform more consistently than the group now in place. As long as Sewell is at LT, that side will be strong. With Jones and Sala on the right, though, suddenly we'll have a line capable of big things going either direction. This will be the foundation upon which our future O (and OL) will be built.

TE: Spencer Webb, Jonah Tuanu'u, Patrick Herbert.
Jonah is a tremendous talent as an OL and he gives us the blocking at TE that the others simply don't. And he can catch the ball a bit, too. He's there because we need blocking...otherwise he wouldn't be. Webb and Herbert will be the base for our TEs coming up. We need Aiello at TE this year, I am afraid we'll need Jonah there next year. Not ideal, but it is what it is.

WR: 1) Addison, Pittman, Williams 2) JJ3, Delgado, Waters
Length, speed, catch radius, YAC...all six of those receivers give us that, plus they all run their routes effectively. Whoever is at QB will not have to worry about the talent they're throwing to...it's there and in abundance.

Ok...this isn't a Chip Kelly-esque offense. Look at the better offenses under Bellotti and you'll see more of what I envision this being. We'll score a bunch of points, we'll dominate the line AND be explosive. As Coach Cristobal said in his intro to the team: "we're going to be the team that nobody wants a piece of".

If you have a minute for a chuckle at Scott Frost's expense

Eating crow is a colloquial idiom, used in some English-speaking countries, that means humiliation by admitting having been proven wrong after taking a strong position. The crow is a carrion-eater that is presumably repulsive to eat in the same way that being proven wrong might be emotionally hard to swallow.

" They have such a recruiting disadvantage geographically that they must become consistent winners to improve recruiting and not miss on very many guys."
