Re: Ducks Transfer Portal - 2023-24
We need to make a playoff run this year. No reason not to now. By my count we legit could have 13-14 guys drafted next year. Crazy talent on this team on every level. And interesting enough, our QB probably won’t be draft until the 5-7th round.

I'd take our QB over Ohio State's, and they are likely the only school who is on par with Oregon for overall talent in the conference.buckmarkduck wrote: ↑Fri May 03, 2024 2:29 pm We need to make a playoff run this year.

I’m not down on DG at all. It’s just funny to me that UO, who in the last 25 years has had 5 first round QBs, yet we couldn’t win it all. This year we have DG, who has been a great college qb, but due to size doesn’t really translate to the NFL. But this could be our best team ever, and for sure will break the record for draft picks.

Seeet! Sounds like he was pushing for a lot of PT at Bama, but wasn’t happy Saban retired.
Also, can we bust out the old school helmet with all white unis? Really liking that look.

Lanning and Co. doing an INCREDIBLE job! We may win a Natty during Uncle Phil's lifetime yet! I sure hope so. He has done so much for the Ducks.Anatinae wrote:

We are probably one more solid backup OL away from being as complete as we could be.

Re: Ducks Transfer Portal - 2023-24
I think we’re fine at tackles but guard is certainly a question mark again. I’ll be very curious to see who starts at guard and I wouldn’t be surprised to see Harper lose his starting position. On top of that I think we need a solid backup LB as well.UOducksTK1 wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2024 9:16 am We are probably one more solid backup OL away from being as complete as we could be.
With how the roster has improved each year since Lanning has taken over it does make me wonder how good it’ll be in a few years…..

Re: Ducks Transfer Portal - 2023-24
I honestly think we were good enough to win it last year, we just didn't match up well against UW and we were dinged up (at the worst-possible positions other than QB) for the Pac-12 title game.
This roster is easily good enough to win it all. Doesn't mean we will, but the talent is there. Our talent will go toe-to-toe with anyone.
My biggest question is how quickly the transfers will gel with those who've been there for a while. I feel like there are plenty of instances throughout sports where more established teams often beat opponents with superior talent. That said, I do think football is a different animal that sometimes relies less on chemistry and more on understanding assignments.
Really excited for this upcoming season though. This is Oregon's time. Everything is possible.

Just committed to UW but obviously something bad happened and now he's at Memphis. Dub down is the vid is pretty savage (Or possibly M for Memphis). Either way probably both lol!

Re: Ducks Transfer Portal - 2023-24
I can't recall where I saw it, but somewhere around, I read that Harper was the "alpha" of the OL group. So, probably not getting displaced as a starter.OregonFan4Life wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2024 9:58 amI think we’re fine at tackles but guard is certainly a question mark again.

My biggest concern is who is the 3rd tackle (and heaven forbid 4th), followed by Bedford, followed by how Poncho and Gabriel gel. I think Strother is a solid guard off the bench.
