To make sense of Oregon’s recruiting landscape over the coming weeks and months, WFOD will be rolling out its 2019 Recruiting Big Board at the beginning of every week between now and the final signing period taking place in February. This weekly piece will provide a snapshot of both the recruits currently committed to the […]
It’s no secret that the Oregon defense is loaded with experienced front line talent up and down the starting lineup and portions of the the two-deep. In total, the Ducks return 11 players who started at least one game a year ago; a group that doesn’t include regulars such as redshirt junior defensive lineman Gary Baker […]
The day has come – the Ducks have brand new football uniforms for the 2018 season, which means that once again there will be no shortage of fodder as it relates to what the team will be wearing on Saturdays this fall. And though a fashion blog we are not, that doesn’t mean we shy […]
