Of course, we will be.

This is the CBS Sports "expert"...Jerry Palm..and his predictions for Bowl Games.

He has Ohio State and Alabama squaring off with the Ducks taking on Clemson.

Now, for my money, that seems like a slam dunk for the Ducks.....I mean...OSU, Alabama, Clemson....can't they find anybody tougher?

Cheers!!

Boom

Mario Cristobal was sent Eric Muse’ film earlier today by the head coach at Jackson-Olin HS in Alabama and Cristobal quickly offered.

Only a sophomore, but fast at 6-0/200.

He sounds all set for Oregon:

I asked Steve Stephens who has been tough to defend for him so far in camp. He noted two guys:

"Devon Williams has been doing a phenomenal job. He is a lengthy wide receiver; I think he is like 6-foot-5. I am on the 6-foot range, so I have got to make sure I am in position because if I give him too much space he has that extra length to grab the ball.

"Spencer Webb as well. One of the bigger guys, so I just have to make sure I stay in position.

"Those dudes have great hands and the run really good routes."

This is the one DTJ and six Duck commits were invited to

This is a new series that is being done on Go Ducks by Rob Moseley. To my surprise and delight they start of with someone I knew from the time that she was a toddler. Trisha grew up 4 houses from where I grew up. Our mothers’ were friends and stayed in touch even after her family moved. Trisha’s home was actually on the Stanford Campus (Stanford owned the land) She used to eat dinner at our house from time to time. Trisha remains the greatest women’s high jumper of any Duck. She made the US Olympic team.
Here is her story:

Already late ones. At least on fans will have to drive home four hours from Autzen at 1 am.

Saving my 25,000 post for 3pm (ish)

Fairly busy day today DSA-wise with three Zoom interviews and a Level Ten Quackwatch in effect.

First will be around 10 this morning I'm going to jump on with Mark Wasikowski to talk some Duck baseball. Next will be around noon or so will be with some defensive football players.

At 3pm we have the above mentioned QW.

Finally at 7pm an interview with a football assistant but I don't know which guy yet.

We'll bring you guys those interviews once they process.

This one might even be 4*, tough to tell with this year, but put up a 47.45 400 as a sophomore.

I asked Austin Faoliu with six current Mater Dei grads on the roster and two more coming in, why is Eugene so attractive to that premium program?

"From my personal experience, I wanted to get away from Cali but not too far. It is still close to home. But another thing is Coach Cristobal and the whole coaching staff, they do a great job of making us feel at home, giving us their word. That is one of the huge things with us, especially from SoCal, can we trust the coaches. Do they have our best interests for us.

"All the kids from Mater Dei, this is the place to be. You guys come here, coaches got your back 110%. They won’t let you guys down."
