Petey a trendsetter..........

Lane Kiffin at UT self reports two recruiting violations as well. (mock press conference, fog machine entrance)
So that's Lane 2 Sarkisian 2 for those of us keeping score at home.

Guess what the punishment for each of them was........... to review the NCAA recruiting policies handbook.

Wonder what Petey will self report next.

Also of note. The UW WR coach had a change of heart and returned to Utah after 3 weeks. Also the "new" OC Jim Michalzik didn't even stay for practice and took the Raiders OC job instead. Funny how this all worked out after signing day.

Another fog machine?

Hope James Johnson enjoys his mystery coaching staff...

The best thing about the guys we got is, the want to be Ducks!

It still cracks me up that Pete has a recruit say that USC did the same thing in a national interview and nothing happens, yet all of his assistants do the same thing and get nailed for it.

Isn't the jury still out on if Diante wanted to be a Duck?

I guess that depends on how you choose to look at it.

Sounds like DJ made the choice, even if his family was involved in the discussion.

"Freshman year is the biggest year that you want to get your grades straight and I felt that Oregon would give me more opportunities to be successful than Colorado, not just in sports but academically," Jackson told The Contra Costa Times. "I felt like there's no better place to go in early and prove myself than Oregon."

So Duck fans may have found a new spirit button for the '09 game... To paraphrase a recent slogan:

WWPD?

(What would Petey do?)

[oreducks77]

Most programs self-report about 5 of these minor violations a year, it's just to cover their arses... usually no punishment comes out of it.

Very funny and now we need a Sark one now!

I actually feel bad for Sark and I like Kiffen (sorry I'm a Raider fan) and we need both of these teams back in order and winning so when we play them there are no excuses!

Wow man. My condolences. If you ever need a place to talk, maybe a shoulder to cry on, I'm here for you.

Its been very hard and I cry a lot...

In all seriousness, I watch CFB more than the Pros and now that I have kids which coincidentally is about when their downfall started, I don't have time to worry about the Raiders and the crazy old man the runs them. I loved the guy in the eighties and nineties but now the product on the field is just awful to watch!

It's really sad what's happened to the Raiders...they've got great history, great fans and an owner who's not afraid to spend money. If Al Davis would just step back and let a GM do the job they could be a great franchise again.
