I got a message from Miles saying he will be taking his OV to Eugene in late January. Very good news. He didn't answer any other questions than the dates:

"I'm taking my OV on January 19th-21st."

But that is enough for now.

The Utah game is in the first quarter and UCLA plays at 6pm. Oregon has already let the league down so it will be interesting to see how these next two go.

The Ducks are currently No. 2 in the Pac-12 behind UW. They could finish 2nd, but more likely they will finish below that with USC and UCLA both looking to pass the Ducks by in the next six weeks. It will be interesting to see how Cristobal closes.

hints at a big signing day surprise?

If you are on Twitter, Cryus Habibi-Likio is calling for all Duck fans to hit up @tylermanoa and encourage him to be a Duck! A 4* All American DT that will be officially visiting the weekend of the 12th-14th. Show him some love and pass it on!! I don't know how to copy the tweet on here so if someone could do that, thanks! Go Ducks!

Talanoa Hufanga got a little publicity in SI this last issue! He caught 5 passes for 159 yards & 3 td's in a 51-0 win over Springfield. He also rushed for 74 yards and a TD. Good to see him get a little National love, now commit to Oregon.....please!!!

The core of his workout is one of my all time favorites: the raptor, but with a straight bar. I always used dumbbells, but I had no idea how high you can go with the weight. The first group was with the bar overhead, and second chest high with 245, knee touch to ground, and 3x3 on each leg. Perfect locked core position, shoulders back, no sway at all. Rad's attention to details and perfect form was apparent even 2,500 miles away with only me and some gawking gym rats. It is really striking when a D1 athlete works out in an area you normally see regular joes trying to beef up.

There were other things, of course, but I'm not sure if Rad wants his entire workout known. I'll be incorporating it into my training, at much lighter weights, of course - the old man special.

I get to see Rocky run at the track for the first time today, and it feels like Christmas morning already.

Funny aside, he kept mentioning different things he's learned, and how it's getting better because the coach isn't yelling at him as much. I asked which coach, and was shocked it was Taylor. I said "but he looks like a scientist who would discuss your mistakes very calmly." Rocky laughed and said "that's what he looks like, but he yells all the time and most of it is cussing." He also said he and Johnson know more about sprinting than anyone in the World, and that when he's done at Oregon he could be a great track coach just from what they've taught him.

4 of the top 5 in state prospects have gone outside of Oregon.

Something to be worried about going forward?

How many of the Oregon signees will be early enrollments?

Time to start planning spring ball.

Oregon went from having top WR class in school history to zero commits. Lost a potential TE in Michael Ezeike... Spencer Webb refused to sign and is now leaning towards UCLA... and now Teagan Q is not signing early and will wait till February.

What’s really going on?

LMAO!!!!!

THESE GUYS SUCK.

"BELIEVE"

That boy is going to the league !!!

So...it looks like with this post I will have tortured you guys exactly 1000 time with my opinions.

It's been a blast!

Happy Holidays to you all.

heck...and I posted it on the wrong forum...duh

Okay all, was gone all day, my wife and I drove down to Myrtle Beach with our dog and spent the day running on the beach in 75 degree weather then had lunch at a local brew pub there.

I have had the chance to speak with both tight ends about their status.

In Tuesday before signing began I spoke with Spencer Webb. The thing is, this is one where the Vegas Bowl and cancellation of the big recruiting weekend hurt.

Webb told me about when he would sign: "I don't know yet. Prolly feb cuz I haven't done my official yet."

The official was supposed to occur the weekend before Sig ing. Instead he visited UCLA. He is solid again and I know that Mario has been in contact with him. Expect the Ducks to set up another recruiting weekend in January and lock this one down.

As far as Teagan Q. goes - he is a Duck and nothing will change that. "Yes I'm set for February I'm going to be a Duck."

He isn't really able to share why he didn't sign and it's not anything that will prevent his ultimate signature.

That's the update. All is good on the right end front so you can relax on that position.

Here is the pic from our day at the beach!

Pardon me from taking some info from GoDucks.com. But when I look at the various offensive position coach experience for coach Arroyo, I wonder whether he is being asked to do too much in his position with Oregon. As Offensive coordinator, QB coach and tight end coach, wouldn’t it be wiser to have a separate QB coach? It might be less critical when Herbert’s healthy but eventually it will change. It just seems like he may be spread too thin.

2015-16 Running Backs
2014 Interim Offensive Coordinator
2013 Offensive Coordinator/Outside Receivers
2011-12 Passing-game Coordinator
2009-10 Offensive Coordinator/Quarterbacks
2007-08 Co-Offensive Coordinator/Quarterbacks
2006 Quarterbacks
2005 Offensive Graduate Assistant

I’d be remiss if I didn’t wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

Have any of you heard much today? I am not sure about how others feel but I am very excited for what's to come in February.

Why? Because the immediate excitement on FSU boards was that Oregon's prior head coach was going to flip him from Georgia; their conventional wisdom was that Jimbo screwed it up, that he really loved FSU, and now that the former Duck head coach was there, he could get fields to flip.

So, yeah, I smiled when this happened today!

Now that the morning rush of early signings has hit a lull, I am posting this article here.

Wednesday War Room: Early Signing 2018

TOS posting that Hufunga signed with USC yesterday. From what I read it's 100% accurate.

Maybe I missed it, but shouldn't we know which of these three are staying or going ?

This was just put on UO track twitter. It is kind of a look back at the 2017 Women's Indoor National
Championship team. Pretty impressive team!
