At least publicly, all has been quiet on the recruiting front for Ducks head coach Mario Cristobal and the Oregon football program for the past two months. The last verbal commitment the Ducks picked up had been from DeSoto (Texas) three-star wide receiver Stephon Johnson, who pledged to Oregon on March 31. Since then, crickets. […]
Few things in recent memory were as protractedly loathsome across the board as 2020. And while the residuals of the past year linger to this day with COVID protocols remaining in place for most areas of the country, this spring offers a level of hope and optimism that simply did not exist at this time […]

After reaching into sunny San Diego on Monday to add four-star running back Byron Cardwell to its 2021 recruiting class, Oregon and head coach Mario Cristobal returned to America’s Finest City to earn an early, yet key, recruiting victory for the Ducks’ 2022 recruiting class.

We have come to the end of the road. This isn’t a Boyz II Men appreciation post, but it does feel like a fitting way to summarize the end of the 2020 season. With Saturday’s Fiesta Bowl serving as an opportunity for both Oregon and Iowa State to put an exclamation point on their respective […]

In a normal year, college football’s early signing period would be met with a heightened level of anticipation, as programs and fans of programs across the country buckle in and attempt to white-knuckle their way through the day, living and dying on the decisions made by hundreds of elite 18-year-old athletes. For better or worse, […]
It’s the dawn of a new era in the rivalry game between Oregon and Oregon State. Dating back to 1894, there have been 123 meetings between the Ducks and Beavers in the game formerly known as the “Civil War.” That name, however, will no longer be used moving forward in association with the annual renewal […]

The delayed start due to the ongoing COVID-19 […]
