@Youngbl00d717 @BradPowers7 1st year, no conf title or playoffs (10-3) 2nd year, lost conf title, no playoffs (12-2) 3rd year, won conf title, lost in playoffs quarter finals (13-1) 4th year, no conf title, lost in playoff semi finals (13-2) So how is it wrong to say each year the team has gotten better?

@BradPowers7 Been hearing this is dans best team for 3 seasons now gets old after a while . They gotta get it done no more excuses

Oregon spring game thoughts: -Beautiful day and a record crowd of 46,500 (spring games aren't dead yet). -Dante Moore looks like he put on some good weight (Raiola not so much). I like Brock Thomas. He could start at a lot of G6 schools. Best QB room in the country. -Jordon Davison and Dierre Hill form a great 1-2 punch at RB as sophomores. Need to find that 3rd guy though (see playoffs last year). -Great seeing WR Evan Stewart back healthy. Combined with Dakorien Moore and Jeremiah McClellan and you have a Top 5 WR unit. -Need to find a 2nd TE behind Jamari Johnson. -OL is the biggest question mark on team. DL dominated them. -Speaking of DL, I think the starting four of Tuioti, Uiagalelei, Washington and Alexander is the BEST in the country. The concern I had was the depth with their top 4 backups all transferring. Guys like Aydin Breland and Matthew Johnson really flashed to me. -LB Devon Jackson and S Peyton Woodyard will get more snaps this year and impressed. -Defensive transfer class looks to be a hit. DB Aaron Scott (Ohio State) made plays all day starting with the first play. OLB Bleu Dantzler (Oregon State) is a name to keep an eye on and DL D'Antre Robinson (North Carolina) was impressive up front. -Some freshman that impressed me were WR Messiah Hampton, 5-star OLB Anthony Jones Jr, DB Xavier Lherisse and OLB Dutch Horisk who didn't look like a 3-star. -Going to sound like a broken record, but the DB room is loaded led by CB Brandon Finney. -Special teams didn't have a great day (missed a couple long FG's and muffed a punt). -Outside of OL, my only other worry is the two new coordinators and if they will be a downgrade. Dan Lanning had the same OC/DC the last 3 years. I'm being nit-picky but I don't like that Lanning is 0-3 in rematches during the season (UW 2023, OSU 2024, Indiana 2025). What are opposing coaching seeing and adjusting the 2nd go around? The Ducks fell way short of expectations in all 3. -Projection: 11-1. Will be favored in 11 of 12 games (at Ohio State the exception). I have the Ducks favored by double-digits in 10 games. This is Lanning's best team yet and a legit National Title contender. Since 2000, the Ducks have arguably had their best 15 teams in school history. It's not a matter of if, but when as far as them winning their first national title.

@dubduphuskies Saying nobody has done less with more is one of the dumbest, most disingenuous things you could say. But your audience isn't smart enough to know. Gotten better every year. This year, 32 of the projected 44 on the 2 deep, are HS recruits or in their 3rd year.

Here’s the Qb11 intellectual dishonesty playbook. QT to the Oregon audience → move the goalposts or redirect entirely. —The discussion is program development/value-add. He shifts it to a 4-year “Lanning at Oregon vs. Fisch rebuilding Arizona/UW after the DeBoer roster exit” window, as if Nike/Oregon and Arizona are the same job. No rebuttal. Just a dodge. Almost no program does less with more than Oregon. He’s thinks other fanbases are too dumb, or too outnumbered on this app, to notice.

@dawg206 ACL injuries have a far greater rate of reinjury. While achilles injury can affect performance, the chances of reinjury is far less likely. Once someone injures their ACL, they are far more likely to injure it again.

@TroxelDerek Since you seem to think Google AI is the expert, thanks for playing.

@dawg206 ACL are more frequent than Achilles. But recovery time is almost identical, with ACL full recovery taking possibly longer.

@dawg206 He wasn't going to be a 1st or 2nd rounder if healthy. Maybe 3rd or 4th, but he needed much more time. Tearing his ACL, hurt his draft stock. These are 330lbs linemen. That's a lot of weight to hold up a bad knee.

@dawg206 Torn Achilles and torn ACL have the same recovery time. Sidney Jones tore his Achilles at his pro day and was able to work out at the combine. Todd Gurley was a consensus top running back. Anyone who actually watched World knew he needed more development against stronger DL.

@dawg206 Not when it happens in January.

@TroxelDerek Sucks for sure but guys get drafted with torn ACL's all the time

@B1G10Trojan There's almost 4 million in LA, almost 10 million in LA County, and over 12 million in LA metro, and you can't get 70k+ to USC? Sorry ass fanbase. No wonder nobody shows up to your games.

Ain’t shit else to do out in that boring ass city

@PhotonsAreLife @huskies4lifee @WestCoastCFB What playoffs did UW participate in last football season?

@TroxelDerek @huskies4lifee @WestCoastCFB No one would classify that as played… they participated.

@huskies4lifee @WestCoastCFB Same number of draft picks. One school played in the semi-finals, the other went 8-4. Let's not include that Oregon had at least 6 more players that would've got drafted, if they didn't return to school.

@WestCoastCFB after all the shit talking… 0regon has the same amount of draft picks as UW 😂😂☔️☔️

@jonmerwin @owentooelve @iBleedPurple_00 @scoduckz You realize the difference of 7 spots is based on team needs, not how good they are, right?

@owentooelve @iBleedPurple_00 @scoduckz Love it that the ducks turned the projected 18th pick into the 25th. The UW d-coordinator developed a three star recruit into a first rounder and the ducks almost ruined it

washington huskies develop a first round pick challenge IMPOSSIBLE

@JamesMcPherson @AdamKoffler You are out of touch with reality.

If you are going to use expensive housing markets, then you need to use expensive employees. $100k is the absolute minimum to be called a “six figure salary” and is low for the same place that a $700k house is a starter home. Push it up to a more reasonable $350k/year and $500k house and you are discovering who is buying a house right now.

Here’s Dave Ramsey’s advice on buying a house in the year 2026: - Have 20% for a down payment to avoid private mortgage insurance (PMI) - Do a 15-year fixed rate loan - Make sure your monthly payment isn’t more than 1/4th of your take home pay Let’s put that math to the test 👇🏼

@Goddess_Yshtola @thelastrosbif @ChrisAlvino @Caelrie My original point was that it was a global figure. The person I responded to, said the 62 million figure was based on the number of US men. Whether it's views or members, it's still a global figure, not a US figure, was my point.

@TroxelDerek @thelastrosbif @ChrisAlvino @Caelrie snopes.com/fact-check/cnn… Social media turned it from views on Motherless to members.

I LITERALLY read CNN's headline to my 71 year old mom who isn't on social media. And BEFORE I COULD EVEN SAY ANYTHING, she says to me "62 million men? Isn't that a third of the men in the United States!? Sounds off." Like OMFG, even my 71 YEAR OLD MOM immediately clocked this bs

@thelastrosbif @ChrisAlvino @Caelrie Ok, sure.

@TroxelDerek @ChrisAlvino @Caelrie 62 million views on the source website Only about 1000 people supposedly in the relevant telegram chat It's massive hyperbolic bullshit

@ChrisAlvino @Caelrie It says "Global". That would imply worldwide, not just the U.S. There are roughly 4 billion men on Globally. About 69.5% are 18+, or about 2.78 billion. 62 million would be 2.2% of the global population that are 18+.

@Caelrie No you dumb fuck. Meanwhile, the rest of goddam fucking twitter

@MrBeavv On top of that, you're also comparing your conference against the bottom teams in the ACC/BIG12/BIG10. You talking down on the Mountain West, but you literally filled your conference with schools from the Mountain West.

@MrBeavv You're purposely giving misleading data while leaving out crucial facts. The PAC 2 teams were playing in premium time slots on the CW compared to ACC teams on the same network. When comparing viewership during the same time slots across multiple channels, the PAC 2 got crushed.

🚨Here is a thread using statistics and facts to show why the PAC 12 is and always will be the clear fifth and sometimes fourth best conference year in and year out. 🚨

@GamewithDave Toss up between the Oregon Trail and Sim City 3000. Although, Doom and Where in the World is Carmen San Diego are up there as well.

For anyone who used a computer between 1990 & 2005… what’s the one game you still think about?
