University of Oregon Appreciate The Season!

142 Upvotes

While it is most certainly a bummer to see us lose to the Fuskies, it certainly feels good to be back to watching the Ducks play great football. After being irrelevant for in college football since 2014 this season brought back many great memories of Ducks football. I truly feel we haven't been this good since 2014 or under Chip.

After watching the program tank under Helfrich (went 4-8 in his final season), experiencing Taggart, then Cristobal, it's okay to see Dan Lanning lose by three points to the number three team in the nation. Yes it sucks that the team could not get it done; but going 11-2 and probably going to a NY6 bowl should never be frond upon. I get it the fans, coaches, and players want to win a NC but it did not happen this year and that's okay.

The team is set up for success with one of the schools best recruiting classes in history and a head coach that not only wants to stay, but (outside of the Georgia game) has only lost four games by a combined total of 13 points. It makes me frustrated to see ducks fans hang their heads on an 11-2 season and say that we were better under MC. Keep you heads up, SCO DUCKS!

Also I take full responsibility for the lose, my cat left the room in the middle of the third quarter and I was no longer able to give her pets between drives.

University of Oregon Mods: Can we make some changes to this sub?

28 Upvotes

With increased exposure, we are bound to get more and more tourists in this sub. And while I overall welcome everybody to visit, other teams worst elements bring out our worst elements.

I'm wondering if we can add in some user flairs, where we could have certain posts be flaired users only. ( I personally want a Troy Dye/English Gardner combo)

Or an auto generated weekly thread, where we allow, and even encourage, all shit talking to happen.

I'm not saying that we need to hide/ bitch out... but having Ohio state, and Michigan fans arguing with each other in every one of our threads belongs on facebook, or twitter.

I’m a Michigan fan but then one day I thought I need a second favourite team so I chose Oregon because you guys have a cool mascot and jerseys, but I don’t want that to be my only reasons so I would like to learn more of the Oregon culture.

Some friends and I (maybe 4-5 of us) are kicking around the idea of going out to Madison for the 11/16 game. Are there any charter packages (flight, hotel, tickets) from Portland? It would be fun to meet up with some other Ducks!

University of Oregon Throughout all this speculation with Lanning AGAIN, can we all take a minute to appreciate Rob Mullens? He continuously makes Oregon sports competitive no matter the situation. The fact we "ended up with" Lanning after all the coaches that left us is incredible.

University of Oregon NCAA settlement a historic day for paying college athletes. What comes next?

17 Upvotes
  • Amateurism, long a fragile and fleeting notion in the billion-dollar college sports industry, is officially dead.
  • It's a promising day for future athletes who are being compensated with revenue sharing expected to be more than $20 million per school.
  • And it's also a confusing week for the coaches and leaders on campus, who have no idea what the specific rules of engagement are moving forward.

University of Oregon Biggest Game Ever?

48 Upvotes

Sitting here thinking about the game Friday and realizing the gravity of it all.

1.) Bo and Penix having a heisman show down on the biggest stage.

2.) Last “Pac-12” title game

3.) 0-2 in the last two

4.) Playing The Dogs AGAIN with EVERYTHING on the line.

Seriously, the winner of this game could very well get the Heisman, Pac-12 championship and CFP birth. One win would obviously make up for those two losses. But think about it, Oregon and Washington are literally playing on the 123rd anniversary of their first game way back in 1900 and it all comes down to this. The biggest game ever. I watched the 2014 national championship and it didn’t feel like this does. Who else could it be? Who else would you want it to be? 115 times leading up to Friday but never for a championship. This one means something for sure.

University of Oregon Oregon's Contract with the Big Ten Conference

46 Upvotes

It apparently came out a few days ago, but I didn't see it linked here.

You can download the full agreement PDF here:

https://billfarley.substack.com/api/v1/file/77b5d856-8d73-4236-b5cf-9b66f0adc0c0.pdf

Notably: In each of the years of 2025-2026, 2026-2027, 2027-2028, 2028-2029, and 2029-2030 the Ducks can take up to $10 million in interest-free advance money to be deducted from their income in 6 years beyond. This interest-free advance would help balance the books by taking from when they make a full share starting in 2030-2031 school year.

  • 2024-2025: 30 Million
  • 2025-2026: 31 Million (up to 41 w/ advance)
  • 2026-2027: 32 Million (up to 42 w/ advance)
  • 2027-2028: 33 Million (up to 43 w/ advance)
  • 2028-2029: 34 Million (up to 44 w/ advance)
  • 2029-2030: 35 Million (up to 45 w/ advance)

When the new media deal goes into effect in 2030-2031 the Ducks would deduct whatever amount they took 6 years prior from that years deal. So if the Ducks took a $10 million advance in 2025-2026 they would have $10 million deducted from the 2030-2031 payout.


Additionally, it looks like the Ducks paid $7.5 Million in Application Fees to the Big Ten Conference.

The Washington agreement should be identical to this one.
