Terrence Jones to Oregon?

that search is hardly indicitative of anything

to put a phrase in quote is pretty self-limiting.

It very much a longshot that we get Jones, but I wouldn’t be completely shocked. At this point, though, my biggest hope is that he doesn’t go to Washington.

Good interview. We could see the defense take another big step forward this year. It’s definitely a weird feeling as an Oregon fan, having the defense be dominant at times. If they can carry that and become more consistent, the whole team could be scary good.

Thanks again, Matt, for all your help with this.

By the way, we just got the blood test results last night – Wolf officially has OI. On the one hand, we were holding out the slim hope it could be something less life-altering, but on the other hand, now we know what we’re dealing with and we can start treatment.

The best news is that he doesn’t have the more severe types of OI, so there’s still a good chance that he can walk, run, and heck, maybe even hit a baseball or kick a fieldgoal like a normal boy. It’s amazing that we can even hope that after everything that’s gone on. Thanks for all your prayers and support.

No, he didn't say that.

I'll say this

I hope Altman watched this presser and said to himself, that Oregon kids don’t leave the state again. This one is not on him, or Kilkenny, or Knight. I want Altman to go after the Oregon kids, I’m tired of the top talent leaving the state, moreless wearing fucking Purple.

I’m going to go watch this, it will make me feel better knowing both of those guys are going to have to do that next year.

Anything but purple would have been easier to live with.

Right, this isn’t on Altman. Only so much pixie dust to put into an hour meeting with a potential recruit. I think he’ll be good at long term romance when given the chance. Keep in mind he’s used to recruiting for a 2nd tier program successfully, being able to lure good athletes from bigger programs.

We fucked up the coaching search so badly, I’m not surprised to see the top recruits pass us over this year.

I think that next year we’re still going to have a not-so-great basketball season, but we’re going to hopefully play real defense and smarter ball, and then we’ll find out if Altman can recruit with a clean slate. Right now I’d take 5 so-so guys out there playing smart team ball over 1 really talented young kid.

by Brian Floyd on Apr 30, 2010 5:52 PM PDT via mobile up reply actions  

The scuttlebutt is that Altman is one of those “beat your kids with his kids, then trade teams and beat his kids with your kids” coaches. Which is pretty much the opposite of what we’re used to, so, the fact that he’ll have a thin freshman class at best might not be a total negative.

The other thing I heard about him is that when he was at K-State, he was considered the most boring coach, if not human being, in the history of coaches if not humanity. Again, not necessarily a bad thing.

I for one look forward to watching my team play without seeing the coach screaming at them the whole game. Based on that video that was recently posted, Altman’s voice doesn’t seem to have much yell left in it.

this loss was on Horton

he left Anderson in for the 8th up 2-0, but Anderson had thrown 110 pitches. Predictably, he got drilled.

With how good our bullpen is, no reason to leave a pitcher in having thrown that many pitches.

SoCal to Oregon

My wife lived a few miles from you, in La Costa, when we met back when I was stationed at Camp Pendleton. The rain was a little tought for her at first because we moved back up during the Winter so she had to deal with it through Spring. But by the time her first Summer here was over she loved it. We have been back here for over 5 years now and even though her whole family still lives in SoCal, she doesn’t want to move back.

My point? Someone that lived only a few miles from you fell in love with Oregon.
