Morning Oatmeal: 2 days until fall camp

Well everyone, the month of football is upon us, and camps around the nation are starting up. This morning, right about now in fact, the incoming players are registering for fall camp. We're very close. So here are some news features in the last 24 hours.

First, out of nowhere 4* JC Linebacker Tyrell Irvin is now on campus and registered for classes. I have no idea how this slipped through the cracks til now, but this is great news. He has 3 years to play 3, so he will most likely see the field this year.  He's 6'1", 220 lbs. and his father played in the CFL. It's said that he could play either middle or outside linebacker, which is a huge plus.

This is great news, considering our weakest position going into this season was linebacker. With the Garrett suspension, he will see the field early I would imagine. 

Also, Moseley had a round up on the Bellotti conference call, with some good information on the QB front, about how the practice will set up. It seems that the first two weeks will be open, with competition being "streamlined" after two weeks. The starting QB will most likely be set when the gameplan is finalized a week before the UW game.

Bellotti's main concerns are WR and DT, and made some comments about incoming players needing to pass academics. I'm worried about Thompson.  We need that depth at defensive tackle, so I hope he gets into Eugene sooner rather than later. While Bellotti didn't specifically mention him, that was probably one of the players he was referring to.

Have a good weekend everyone. 4 weeks until kickoff!

GO DUCKS!

Irvin

That’s a pretty significant addition to the team, particularly since he can play all three years.

Bring on fall camp!

thank god

thank god there is a post that doesnt whine about the Beavers…
Forget about them – they are the last team the Ducks play this year. Stop whining about them _ who cares? I don’t give a rats arse what any OSU alumni or student says about UO funding or the University.
Get over it – the Ducks are going to take the field and kick ass.
I lived in Oregon for forty years and live in Vegas now because there is work here.
Stop whining and play football.
Oregon State represents a great state and a great place to live and work.
I’d rather beat their ass for the PAC-10 Championship than ANYONE else.
Oregon State is an excellent university and offers programs Oregon doesn’t.
Don’t whine, take the high road, refrain from patting your self on the back, but most of all, exult when the Ducks kick ass!!!!

I have bought into doing kickass uniforms for doing kickass uniforms' sake. This is what I think would kickass in 2011.
