Quack Fix: Ducks prepare for Beavers' defense, Track & field signs seven

After a busy week of Duck football, let's turn our attention to Duck basketball for a bit, with a big Civil War tomorrow afternoon.
- If the Ducks are going to beat the Beavers this weekend, they are going to have to improve significantly on the offensive side of the ball, and must beat the 1-3-1 zone trap run by the Beavers, who are led by brothers Josh and Seth Tarver. The Beavers' defense held the Ducks to only 35% from the field and 20% from three point range during the last Civil War. Oregon will need to cut down on turnovers and improve shot selection. The coaching staff will need to make the adjustments to beat the zone. If they can do that, the Ducks have a great chance of grabbing a Pac-10 victory on the road.
- Leading up to the Civil War, practice has gotten a beat heated. Garrett Sim had to be given six stitches after getting in a fight with walk-on sophomore guard John Elorriaga. Coach Kent said that no punishment is necessary, and that's just part of the intensity of practice. Sim and Elorriaga were played for rival Metro league schools during high school. Also, Matt Humphrey was kicked out of practice for ten minutes before returning. While the lack of discipline of these events is a bit disconcerting, it's nice to see intensity in the players, which hasn't always been there this season.
- Bob Clark has a few more notes on the team before the Civil War. LeKendric Longmire is still absent with academic issues, and Joevan Catron is not yet participating in practices for the most part.
- Oregon football wasn't the only sport signing new players this week. Oregon track signed seven new athletes, including national javelin leader Sam Crouser (video here), who was mentioned yesterday. While Crouser is the biggest name, the Ducks also signed two in-state decathlete Dakotah Keys, who broke the state record at the 2008 USA Junior Olympic National Championships.
- Lastly, the Contra Costa Times has a piece on UO safety recruit Erick Dargan, a talented player that looks to continue Oregon's tradition of hard-hitting safeties.
Got anything else to share or discuss? Leave it below. Also, after the jump we have a 2009 Oregon football highlight video put together by the athletic department. If it doesn't give you goosebumps, I don't know what will. GO DUCKS!

Terron Ward
In that Dargan article the author mentions that Terron Ward is going to try and walk-on at Cal. He’s the younger brother of TJ Ward. Cal will get a great player, I don’t understand why he wasn’t offered a scholarship having seem him play quite a bit here in the Bay Area. He’s like a less shifty version of Maurice Jones Drew, but built strong and fast. I predict he’ll be starting at Cal in two years. If the Ducks didn’t have so many RBs already, I wish he’d come here.

Eventually,
His running backs would become so versatile, they would coach. And then Coach Kelly would be out of a job.
And then they would take over recruiting, and then it would be a never-ending cycle of regeneration just like that one agent from crappy Matrix 3.

Easy, an army of Eddies. They just have to catch one then pound it into the ground. Take them out one by one until they can swarm the rest and pound them into submission.
Now if you had an Army of Blount’s, then the Army of Eddies would get worried.

Not so fast my friend!
Williams is one hell of a stud, not to mention Seastrunk is faster than any player on Oregon’s offense.
And Honestly, do you think that swarming around LaMichael James would do any good? Is that not what every defense tried unsuccessfully to do all of last season?

My personal takeaway on 2009..
Puddles body-surfing on his back over the on-field throng, under the full moon. Maybe my favorite Autzen image of all time.
Sure, the one after the CW with the rose in Puddles’ paw was more iconic, but this one came first.
everything is history, eventually.

Two measley comments? Clearly, we need a topic of conversation
We’ve done beer. We’ve done candy. Lets talk soda.
I grew up on Pepsi. Way too sweet. I got through college on Mountain Dew, but grew tired of it and haven’t had the urge to go back. I never buy either now.
On occasion, I’ll get a Dr. Pepper or a root beer just to change things up a bit. But I always go back to the same thing. It makes up 95% of my soda purchases. I know axeman probably drinks Squirt, Tab, and Diet Pepsi because he likes things that taste like shit, but Classic Coke is by far the best soda there is.

My mother-in-law is a linguist, and she says its a dialect thing. Certain parts of the country call it soda, certain parts call it pop. Unfortunately, the northwest has a preference for pop. Hate the word. Any use of it on ATQ may draw immediate ban.

This was extremely confusing to me at first
I used to work at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, and when the Angels would play the Rangers, we’d have people from Texas come in. They’d order a coke. So of course we’re trained to answer, “We serve Pepsi here, would that be alright with you?”
They’d look at me like I was crazy. “No, I don’t want a Pepsi. I want Sprite!”
I was really confused until I realized that “Coke” to them just meant soda.

Thank you for the pop comment. Hate that term. Those of us from California would always tell our friends that pop was a noise, not a drink.
As for soda, I gave it up for awhile in college and the taste gradually came back. I generally only drink it now when I mix it with Jack. I used to LOVE Mountain Dew. Now, if I even sniff the stuff, my stomach twists itself in knots against the impending rush of carbonated syrup and caffeine.
Oh, and as for the best cola? It’s all about RC baby.

Paul Wulff is apparently pissed off because Max Forde went to Idaho instead of WSU. He apparently thinks Forde’s father, a former Cougar, should have been more persuasive.
bq. I go back on the parents and educating the kids, keeping them true to their word," Wulff said. "A lot of people say, ’That’s how recruiting is.’ I don’t believe in it, and I never will.
by QuackinAK on Feb 5, 2010 1:38 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
I love the father’s response
“You can’t fault an 18-year-old kid if he has a change of heart on something,” Brian Forde told the newspaper. "He didn’t break any laws. Last time I checked, you’re allowed to change your mind. When your son tells you, ‘I prayed on it, and I really feel Idaho is the best place for me,’ what do you say at that point?
“If Washington State feels they got done wrong, maybe they got out-recruited.”

The only messed up thing
Was he verballed a while ago, then decided on signing day to fax his LOI to Idaho. Forde was a stretch in the first place and we wanted him as an OL, while Idaho wanted him as a DE, which is where he wanted to play.
Not a big deal to me to lose him, but the pissing match between the coach and father is pretty ridiculous.

I hear you, and I understand about counting on him
It seems maybe he was taking the kid for granted because his dad is an alum. Kind of like the Oregon fans being jackasses toward Kevin Love. There is no reason to dog on a kid because he had a better vibe from the other school. I bet it stings a little more since it is Idaho, and they really need help on that O-line. But that’s how it goes sometimes.
What do you think about the early signing period that Stoops advocates?
by QuackinAK on Feb 5, 2010 2:18 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Football needs an early signing period
It would eliminate alot of the ridiculousness that comes with late pushes and coaches trying to one up each other in the backstabbing department. Kids know where they want to go early on, so why not get it over with and get them inked. There’s no reason to prolong the process for those kinds of kids.
On the other hand, it can screw a kid if the coach is fired or leaves. It’s a question of whether the pros outweigh the cons.
by cougfan on Feb 5, 2010 3:21 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Football does not need an early signing day. These kids should not be signing their lives away until the last possible moment.
What’s worse, having someone change their mind at the last minute, or doing it early on a whim, and then being stuck with that for 6-7 years.

I agree with that about coaches
But why shouldn’t football have an early period? It works for basketball, doesn’t it?
Look how long the football recruiting process drags out. We’re talking about 5-6 months of a senior year for a kid being hounded constantly. That’s in addition to a process that starts as a junior. I’m not saying every kid signs in that early period, as in basketball many wait until the late period.
I think there are cons to it, but there’s also quite a few pros to it as well.

Early signing period takes away the only power the kids have until graduation…and in most cases the rest of their lives (unless they are early round NFL picks)
I disagree completely with an early signing period…sure you will have prima donnas, but that’s life
by Linoleum Knife on Feb 5, 2010 3:44 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
What negatives are currently? That it’s drawn out? If a recruit wants to shut this out, they can. Hell, look at Erick Dargan. We heard practically nothing from him for the entire process. If a kid doesn’t want to be hounded, they can make their choice. If a kid is truly committed to a school, then he can tell other coaches to stop calling him.
But most kids seem to like that attention. I think that a lot of kids feel pressured into making commitments early by the entire process. Early signing day if anything increases that pressure, and will end up locking kids into situations they may not want to be in.
The main proponents of early signing day are simply coaches that get “screwed over” and lose control of these situations. And that’s really what this whole thing is about. Coaches, that already have almost total control in this situation, want even more.
If you want your recruits, recruit. Make them want to come to your school more than anything else. It’s that simple.

This is the early signing period
Right? They can sign later if they want to, there is no reason they need to sign right away, I actually have a problem with trying to lock a kid in as early as possible. I think its a bad idea to allow teams to lock up guys early, especially if a team does suffer from decommitments, they can then try to scramble after someone else.

I’m just wary of it. It probably wouldn’t have much of an impact. But I just don’t like the players being tied down before they have to be.
It just seems to me there’s no real argument for it, and it’s proponents are coaches that are simply pissed cause they lost players at the last minute. And honestly, if those players are changing their minds at the last minute, then it’s pretty crappy that these coaches would want them to have their earlier decisions be binding, regardless of if that’s the right decision for the player or not.

This cannot possibly be rec’d enough. It’s a good thing I’m the last one in my office. I was laughing pretty dang loud at that one.

I say soda.
It’s clearly the best word for a carbonated beverage.
In Tennessee, people say coke, despite whether or not they want an actual Coca-Cola. I hate it.

Unfortunately everyone is open game.
But don’t worry… It’s almost like an award for reply fail.
Everyone enjoys it!

I TURNED THIS VIDEO OFF
I’m sorry but I hate “modern” editing “techniques”. Just show great things, edited together without all the moving camera and flashing lights. It’s crap and I refuse to watch it despite my love for the subject matter.
Probably for the best, I was getting over exited from the get go for Duck Football to start again. How many months til opening day?

Back in my day our videos were in black and white. And they didn’t move. And we made them with charcoal sticks on rocks. If you were even lucky enough to HAVE a stick, let alone some fire to burn the tip of it! The rocks were in abundance but every one you drew on was one you couldn’t eat.

...and when there was no meat,
we ate fowl and when there was no fowl, we ate crawdad and when there was no crawdad to be found, we ate sand.

And Gaddammit, we loved those rocks, that sand.
Sometimes it was rocks and sand, just to mix things up, like a chili, and you ain’t ever seen one this dense, let me tell you. Every had a silica mash, boy? Slate?
Gaddam kids these days with their meats and poultry and vegetables, soft I tell you SOFT.
Well let me tell you one thing, the day you start eating limestone casserole is the day you become a man. You wanna impress me? Go outside and eat the porch, then come back in here and tell me you liked it and you’re ready for desert. Otherwise we’re done talking, girlie.

We know he ain’t gonna maintain it so let’s just take the damn thing off his hands.

But only if you can trim every blade of glass
to an identical 1/4" height. Otherwise: Off. Lawn. Now.
by HoodRiverDuck on Feb 6, 2010 3:40 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Exactly.
Hmmm, I’m on lawn. Should I stay on? Eat lawn? Walk around? Ponder why I’m a useless douchebag? Go blank and stare at sky? Develop string theory equations? Get off lawn?
When in doubt: OFF LAWN.

I was thinking the exact opposite the entire time
I love that our video department is always evolving and pushing themselves. You can tell how seriously they take their job as art, and I love it. Of course(Dave hey look I’m learning) I am a Digital Art graduate.

I ain't saying they didn't work hard
I make this same bitch everytime someone makes a frantic frenetic over the top sports vid. Lots of people bitch me out, others love me for saying what they felt but wouldn’t voice, but no one has ever quoted Raising Arizona.

Consider yourself honored!
That whole movie is one long quote-fest. As is nearly everything the Coen Brothers ever did.

HOLY CRAP
They need to send that video to every recruit they think they have a chance with. That was amazing.

As well as just about every video produced by UO via either oregongridiron.com or goducks.com is amazing.
