“Bombshell” may be an over-dramatic word to describe Tuesday’s news that senior wide receiver Brenden Schooler would be transferring from the Oregon program, but it’s certainly news that caught many Duck fans by surprise. First reported by James Crepea of The Oregonian/OregonLive, Schooler leaves the Ducks after appearing in just three games this season due to […]
A rare Friday matchup for the Ducks is but a day away, as Oregon plays host to the Colorado Buffaloes. The last time the Buffs visited Eugene, Colorado quarterback Steven Montez was making his first career start in a game that would ultimately mark the beginning of an encouraging collegiate career for the then redshirt […]
With a short week on deck for both the 13th-ranked Ducks and Friday’s opponent in the Colorado Buffaloes, that doesn’t leave much time for either side to linger on the results from last week. For the Buffs, they’ll carry with them a stinging 35-30 home defeat vs. Arizona coming into this week’s game, while the […]
For a full decade (plus a year) spanning either parts or the entire tenures of three head coaches (Mike Bellotti, Chip Kelly, Mark Helfrich), the Oregon Ducks ruled the roost when it came who led the Pac-10/12 in rushing offense. In fact, from 2006 to 2016, the Ducks not only led the conference in rushing […]

As fall camp fast approaches, WFOD will be rolling out an in-depth series of position-by-position previews to help you fully […]
Traditionally speaking, Eugene, Oregon hasn’t exactly been a hot bed for producing talent along the defensive line. Sure, there have been exceptions like Haloti Ngata, DeForest Buckner, and Arik Armstead who have passed through campus at the University of Oregon and gone on to have notable – if not exceptional – careers in the NFL.

With a little less than a week to go before June comes to an end, the Ducks have officially matched the number of commits they received during this month last year en route to a top 10 recruiting class for the 2019 cycle. On Monday, Sparks (Nev.) Spanish Springs three-star linebacker Jackson LaDuke became the […]
DJ Uiagalelei. Kendall Milton. Justin Flowe. Sav’ell Smalls. Elias Ricks. Kelee Ringo. Darnell Washington. What do these seven names have in common?
