GAME #9 OREGON DUCKS vs #21 oregon state rodents: 3:30 PM EST on ABC

Paying millions to buy wins only to lose to both of your rivals who aren't spending all that money. Spending a fortune to look nationwide for the best HC only to watch him be outcoached by the much less heralded HC of both of those rivals. And their biggest booster is 84 and losing patience waiting for his money to payoff.

Here's more of that article. It's not just about 11k They will probably get back on the secondary market anyway, they have put up big money to buy championships they are failing at and they are frustrated with the AD over it.
I especially like this part:

"USC athletic director Mike Bohn hired Lincoln Riley, who now looks like a home run. Washington AD Jennifer Cohen appears to have topped that move with a sneaky good hire in Kalen DeBoer. The Huskies are dangerous.

Both of those hires had proof of performance as head coaches. Oregon went with the 35-year old University of Georgia defensive coordinator, who was presented to them as one of the best recruiters in college football by Parker Executive Search. UO paid the firm $95,000 for the assist."

Oregon's a stepping stone program. Not sure I'd put it on the AD.
This, at the end of the day it's just Oregon. No matter how much money they try to throw at that problem, there's still gonna be more desirable matches that can at least match it.

Good luck finding the one weirdo who's actually good and wants to make a permanent life in Eugene.

Looks like Scenario Village got raided big time.
 
This years OD game meltdown thread. Spoiler, the UW/WSU thread had better OD action, but this is still worthy of a 'closer look'

You can feel the excitement here as his far-fetched notion of a Duck playoff berth seems just a bit closer.

Already in the late game meltdown by the team, but he's still strong in the defense. Still spelling words without smashing the KB at this point.

Maybe a hint of questioning the team's effort here? Almost feel the second guessing, but probably not.

Think he's more or less trying to convince himself here more than others, but holding faith!

OK, the tides have turned a bit. Starting the all caps and missed letters, but not quite smashing keys. Probably rushing a bit though.

You can sort of feel the nervous twitch in this post as he's still trying to hold onto that last gasp of hope.

Not quite over yet, but nearly came to terms with reality. STILL DOING THE CAPS THING and only just overshot the H key a bit. Not quite there yet...

OK, now we get to the heart of this years meltdown. Over/undershot several letters, but still hitting neighboring keys. It's not quite smashing KB, but he's clearly coming unglued. Then he goes silent for quite a while. This was all we really got from the immediate aftermath (a bit disappointing TBH)

Right, so back a bit later to tell us why/how this atrocity happened! CAPS AND BLAME!!!

He's stewing in the rumor of the OC leaving to ASU and you can feel it a bit, but still not quite up to his normal meltdown standards here. This years effort left us wanting a bit.

Not happy with the reactions, but weak effort to counter it. He's spent... for now

Angry and looking for the Cougs to salvage what little of their CCG hopes were still left.

As of this writeup, the AP has UW at #9. :wave:
Even the sour grapes to end this thread were kind of underwhelming.

I'd have to give this entire effort only a 5 out of 10. No real marquee quotes, lackluster anger. Kind of matched the effort by the team. Maybe UW really already partially broke him? :noidea:

Right now I'd probably put the later effort in the UW/WSU thread at a 7 out of 10, but I could be convinced it was only a 6. Time will tell if any of his posts reach long-term quote status.

Agree overall. But "NO DUXKINF WAY" was pretty good.

It's no Bit b, but still quotable.
 
While we don't know if that's true, we do know who is coming back...


He should also have his top three wide receivers and tight ends returning as well, right?

We will have to see who declares early, but he will have weapons. The real question will be line. There's a few seniors on that group.
