Quack Fix: Kelly Still Fond Of Pryor; Says Rose Bowl Has Always Been "The" Game

Email
PrintThe Ducks will formally put the regular season behind them as they resume practice tomorrow in preparation for the Rose Bowl. It's a little quiet out there today, but things are sure to heat up shortly.
- Adam Jude of the R-G has compiled a few notes, including Chip Kelly on not landing Terrell Pryor, and his appreciation of the Rose Bowl.
- Jason Vondersmith of the Portland Trib has somewhat more thorough articles on the same topics: Kelly is still following Pryor's progress at tOSU; Kelly says the Rose Bowl has always been "The" game in college football.
- It's rare that I even glance at Canzano's column, but yesterday's headline caught my attention. He challenges the forward-thinking Pac-10 conference to the first AQ conference to take a stand against the current system that settles nothing. Larry Scott, are you listening?
- ESPN has posted his Oregon Season Recap. You can also check out his recaps for all other conference teams in his Pac-10 blog.
- ESPN also has some numbers and video for 3-star cornerback Troy Hill of Ventura, CA, Oregon's latest verbal commitment. Seems the Ducks' recruiting class is starting to look like a defensive gem.
If you find something of interest, please share with the rest of the class. Me, I'm sick as a purple dawg, so I'll be layin' low today. I blame the BCS match-up between TCU and Boise State - a complete sham of a match-up that conveniently, for the AQ conferences, provides us no answers whatsoever about the ability of undefeated teams from the WAC and MWC to play with any team in the country, any time, anywhere. It makes my head hurt.

it's a game us easteners play...
it’s funny — the contrast between the threads between us big ten folk and you pac 10 guys. i feel like sometimes i have like… cultural slips, lol. just treat me like some european who you’re showing around until the rose bowl is over.
its cool
i welcome your input and we love to get opinions from other view points

thanks man -- that's another difference
other big ten blogs are not huge on having opposing fans on their threads. it’s refreshing to have objective conversations with the opposition.
Your guy keeps locking up threads...
of course, I don’t really blame him because it’s him against the world!
To be fair
that one thread over there got unnecessarily hostile. I can get that level of trash talk almost anywhere else, I come here to avoid it.

It didn't even come close to Oregonlive level...
that place makes me feel dirty. He locked a fanpost because someone said that the Pac-10 actually schedules tough out of conference foes. Of course, it was a cheeky comment but, c’mon, grow a little thick skin. The OOC debate is very easy to assess. Part of the problem is that outside of OBNUG and UWDAWGPOUND, none of our rival SB Nation sites come to the level of participation on this site. I think it was more a case of numbers and hopefully we swarm the rose bowl the same way :)!
I’d say California Golden Blogs has the most participation. Is any of it coherent? Sometimes…

Kelly wins National COY!
Unfortunately its Brian Kelly, not Chip Kelly. Can hardly complain about it, although how different it might have been if Pitt had beaten them Saturday.

I'm sure that Chip Kelly does not care...

Wait an OSU fan acknowledging that another football team in Ohio is deserving
of anything other than ridicule? C’mon man, you can NOT be serious!
lol, not all buckeye fans are complete homers...
most of us are — but some, like myself (i think), are objective.
I am sure you are right
But I know a couple, and they absolutely refuse to admit that there is anybody in college football that deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as OSU, they take it as an affront to their dignity, so I kind of have a jaded view (I’m sure it’s not fair, and I’m willing to accept that), they kind of remind me of the way UW fans used to be.
does the fiesta bowl feel like the little kids table at thanksgiving?
yeah you guys can come to party, of course you guys are welcome to come. Here is your table in the corner, now go play with yourselves and leave us alone.

Yes
Ratings are going to be miniscule compared to what they would be if they had, say, split Florida and Cincy up and put one against each of these two.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
or iowa and ga tech...
this match up makes no sense to me. what was the fiesta thinking?
They're delusional
They somehow think this will be a ratings boost. It might, if this were the NCAA basketball tourney but its not. No national championship at stake and neither team gets to prove if they are truly for real (although I think both are).
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
And I might add of course
That BSU’s amazing upset of Oklahoma was amazing BECAUSE IT WAS AGAINST OKLAHOMA! If it were against Utah say, it wouldn’t have been as fun.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
it just doesn't make sense...
i heard they supposedly ‘fell on the sword’ for the other BCS bowls — so noone else would have to pick a non-AQ. but that doesn’t make sense, they’d only be saving the orange bowl from bad ratings — it’s not like they did a favor for the rest of the BCS bowls. just dumb all around.
The Orange will still get bad ratings
Iowans will tune in but I doubt a lot of others will.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
good point
i know i’ll be watching because i’m ‘fanhood-obligated’ to cheer for everyone in the big ten, but watching iowa play football might be the most boring thing in the history of the world. honestly — i would hate my life if i were an iowa fan.

I've watched a couple of Iowa games
And I have to say all the interceptions, and pulling it out in the end despite being beaten for most of the game was at least interesting.
honestly, it could be worse...
we could be fans of any team in the big east not named cincinatti.
Pitt was pretty good
That freshman running back of theirs is great, should have won that game with Cinci (and WV for that matter) but then again it is the Big East and strange things happen in that league.
okay... pitt's freshman running back is good...
and you could say west virginia, at times, is fun to watch, but the overall conference isn’t good because of one exciting freshman running back. there were some really good big 10 games this year…
I totally agree
Big East should be called the Big Easy, I was just pointing out that Pitt wasn’t bad, and I am loathe to say that I have any freaking idea what the hell is going on in that conference. I was just saying that Pitt had a couple tough breaks in their final 2 games, losing both right at the end when they dominated for most of the game in both instances.
It wont be as bad as the SEC game
Auburn and Miss St? Where it was something along the lines of 3-0…God Awful

i can contribute to that conversation. oregon recruiting… not so much. the only thing i know about oregon recruiting is that two years ago, you tried to recruit my quarterback. and that’s not a low blow or an attempt at a low blow, i think every one is happy how that situation played out. — you guys got masoli and we got a QB who (fingers crossed) is just one big performance away from being AMAZING.
I actually hate talking about recruiting
But wanted to point out that your last sentence is something Duck fans might want to PANIC about.

For what its worth
I never thought we were really close to getting Pryor, now if he had visited and seen our facilities it may have been a different matter. I don’t know that I can think of ANY player that we have ever gotten without touring our facilities particularly when competing against traditional power house programs such as Ohio St.
I do remember perusing some of the recruiting blogs, and chuckling when the Buckeye homers were saying that Oregon’s facilities couldn’t match up with OSU’s plus we don’t have the NIKE connection that OSU does. Especially since we are often referred to as “NIKE U,” and it is cited as an unfair advantage to have Uncle Phil as a benefactor.
i fully enjoy Ohio State and Florida getting to wear Nike’s new creations. only Texas stood up and said they couldn’t make crazy changes and slightly changed their helmets vs. A&M.

whoever said ohio state has a better connection to nike..
is a complete idiot. no one who knows anything about college football would say that.
our ‘new look uniforms’ were a tragedy. i liked the white helmets with the numbers on it (although that is almost too-alabama for me), the rest was just awful.
i’ve heard nothing but great things about your guys facilities. the biggest factor in pryor’s recruitment was the distance — no way he was coming out of Big Ten country.
no one who knows anything about college football would say that.
Well, we are talking about Ohio State fans. HEYO!
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
Don’t worry we have our foolish homers too (I probably fit into that category), we can’t all be reasonable stat filled analytical machines like our friend jtlight, but I did actually read that on an OSU recruiting blog, and it seemed there was a lot of agreement from the others frequenting those things.
My above comment was a shining example of statistical analysis and non-homerism.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
My biggest worry after the season is that any of these guys gets snagged as O-coord or D-soor somehere else:
Azzinaro
Neal
Greatwood
Frost
We really need to keep these guys around another year to see this team through its potential.
Oregon State, Oklahoma State, Ohio State..just another OSU.
Azzinaro isn’t gonna get promoted. He did that before, and it just didn’t work out. As long as he’s well paid, I think he’ll stay a DL coach. That’s not to say he won’t get bored with Oregon however. Losing his energy, especially on the recruiting trail, will suck.
Neal has done an excellent job, and seems like the kind of guy that will stick around.
Greatwood….yeah. I wish he could keep him forever.
Frost is a worry. He’s a high energy guy, and so far he’s done a very good job with recruits, and I expect that to continue. I only expect him to be here a few years.
Overall, it’s pretty awesome how our coaching staff is so entrenched at Oregon. We know they won’t be jumping ship anytime soon. Aliotti’s taken a lot of crap, but he and his coaches have done an amazing job this year, and with the players we’re bringing in defensively on the recruiting trail, I think he’ll have some job security for a few years. Also, what’s it say about Chip Kelly that when Aliotti was at his lowest (in terms of fan perspective), Kelly trusted Aliotti and put his full support behind him.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
Kelly trusted Aliotti and put his full support behind him
That is a great point. I remember everyone talking about as soon as Kelly got promoted that Aliotti’s days were numbered. Who knew (except Kelly) that it was Belotti holding New Aliotti back and not the other way around…
and now I will get yelled at by a large number of Belotti fans…
Oregon State, Oklahoma State, Ohio State..just another OSU.
MattDaddy, look...
There is not a Duck fan on the face of the earth that likes Old Aliotti better than new and improved Aliotti 2.0…
We can only speculate as to why a more refined and effective Aliotti emerged

More info on Hill, from Greg Biggins
“I got that special feeling at Oregon and no one was able to match it,” Hill said. “I was just so comfortable there and really bonded with the players and coaches. They have a great team and all but it was more than that. The bottom line is Oregon was where I felt most comfortable and it became a pretty easy decision for me in the end.”
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
Yay! I like players being comfortable and saying “a pretty easy decision for me”

Oregon's Rivals page...
has four stories on recruits. One is on Hill, the other is on Mathis and his quote of “it was louder than the Big House”, the third is on Easley saying he enjoyed his trip and how Penn St. definitely has some competition now, and the final story is on Heimuli saying the visit was “more than what I expected.” How amazing is that?

i think it should be the kicker limping off the field after the star QB jumped on him in celebration and blew out his knee.

Dude the Steelers are sucking this year...
Can’t they just showcase Dixon for the rest of the season and trade him for a decent pick from somebody?
Free Dennis Dixon!!!!!
Oregon State, Oklahoma State, Ohio State..just another OSU.
Exactly, let the Dixon fly, fly up to the heavens and soar.

To the Panthers!!!!
Dixon, JStew, and Rosario!!!! That would be awesome!!!!!

… Interesting…
I could almost sorta see this happen…
its spelled "S-h-u-t-t-h-e H e-l-l-U-p-F-E-L-T"
I would love to see this happen, its a win win for me
The Steelers (whom I like) get a decent draft pick from Carolina and Carolina gets a guy who can come in and help move their offense, plus since Delhomme is already signed, you can move him to 2nd string… So I get to see Dixon go hogwild on the NFC. I would love this
Oregon State, Oklahoma State, Ohio State..just another OSU.
NOOOOOOOOOOO
I would have to root against that triple twice a year!

It would suck to have to root against Dixon and J-Stew. You would come out on thw wrong end every year. Geoff Schwartz is a Panther as well, right?

Delhomme is a turd...
So Carolina potentially could pick him up…Allthough they most certainly will draft a QB in the first round

So...I'm gonna have to be a slightly dissenting voice (what else is new)
And say that the Rose Bowl is not universally considered “the Game,” although we can (and probably already have) started the process of fixing that. The past few years’ coverage, consisting of (a) ESPN’s Pete Carroll homoeroticism (b) the Trojans dickpunching some Big Ten team and © work Jersey Shore nicknames into this yourself. I’m sure that a lot more people at my house will be watching than last year, when people actively avoided the TV room because I had the game on. (Especially if I fail to get a student ticket, and am at home decked out in Duck gear.)

Eh, I’m not so much trying to say my personal opinion; more of just “I can show you a large segment of the population that doesn’t consider the Rose Bowl ‘the bowl game’.” Like I said, I was the one who had the game on to begin with.
Although you did make me realize that if I get Rose Bowl tickets, I need to get an LSU 2003 National Champions shirt to wear to LA. I’m big on riling up the locals.
