I’d rather have a bi-anual trip to SoCal than a guaranteed trip to the state of Washington

The North/South split guarantees a trip to SoCal every other year.

With an 8-game schedule, we would play Arizona or Arizona State, USC or UCLA, and Colorado or Utah every year.

Unless the schedulers are monumentally stupid, we’d play one SoCal team every year, which would translate into one game in SoCal a year.

Ah, valid point. However I am less confident in your assumption of the schedulers. I remember once we had two home games against Washington in a row, the schedulers were stupid then. Well more likely they were constrained by stupid rules.

by bradLL99 on Jul 26, 2010 8:31 AM PDT up reply actions  

The reason we had 2 home games against UW in a row (and about 7 in the Palouse in a row) is because we were scheduled to miss playing UW for two years per normal Pac-10 scheduling. We threw a hissy fit and that was the scheduling compromise that was reached so that we only missed UW for one year (2001).

If the rules are set in place from the beginning, it will be quite easy to ensure trips to LA at least every other year.

I still think everyone is overvaluing play a road game in LA

I mean its 2010, the age of instant news, the internet, YouTube, hell I am going to watch Duck game on my xbox 360 with ESPN 360 this fall. Thats two full circles of amazing football action! It is not going to be hard to get exposure in any part of the country if the people want to watch the Ducks.

Not to mention we are the flavor of the week right now on basically a national level. As far as hip up and coming programs go we top the list. We are going to get play in LA, even on the east coast at the rate this is going.

Why would a 17 year old kid in LA want to go out and find the ducks. Plus being able to say that you will get a trip home and play in front of friends and family every other year to that kid is better than nothing.

by bradLL99 on Jul 26, 2010 8:49 AM PDT up reply actions  

Well,

I am inclined to agree with trumpetduck and others that downplay the importance of a game in SoCal every year. Oregon will have at least a few games that are televised throughout the entire west coast, and regardless of a lack of exposure, Oregon is becoming very adept at recruiting kids from the East Coast who can only watch Oregon play maybe once a year.

by CaDuck on Jul 26, 2010 9:23 AM PDT up reply actions  

It’s easy for me to agree with that from where I’m sitting. But I’d be curious to hear what actual SoCal recruits think about this. Is a big selling point on going out of state being able to play in front of your friends every year? I’m sure it’s not a big deal for everyone (and some will probably be just as happy to avoid it). But you have to think that it will have an affect somewhere.

Then the question is cost-reward oriented. If doing a zipper split will cause logistical/organization nightmares, is costing the NW schools a recruit or two a season really worth it? On the other hand, if the only real problem with a zipper is the annoyance of not being able to readily identify who’s in which division, it might be worth it to try to save those recruits for the NW.

It really seems like playing every year in SoCal is one of those things that isn’t a dealbreaker. Yeah, it’s would be an added benefit once you’re at the school, but there are so many other more important factors that go into choosing a school.

As I’ve said before, if someone doesn’t pick Oregon because of this, it will be one or two recruits every few years, but we won’t hear about all the other kids that came to Oregon because of the added exposure of the expanded conference and new network.

Every time we play a game down there

it’s an opportunity for Coach Pellum or whomever to visit high schools, and build and maintain relationships with high school coaches and administrators. That’s what’s really important. People are treating this as if recruits make decisions alone. Let’s not pretend there aren’t some fairly major ramifications by playing in CA more infrequently.

by grimc on Jul 26, 2010 10:37 AM PDT up reply actions  

Let’s also not over emphasize the importance of playing in So Cal.

Ideally, we’d be in So Cal every year, but it isn’t like we’re being removed from the market either. We’ll still recruit well in So Cal, and missing a year here and there is hardly the problem.

I think that you all have missed the major point.

Right now, if we don’t get SOCAK games, we get screwed on TB revenues. Until the TV thang is split up evenly, even if we get on TV nation wide every game, We’ll still be in the bottom 3 of the total PAc 10 TV revenue list because we’ve got fewer TV sets in our area.
At least that’s what I’ve been led to believe. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

It's not that exactly

It’s that every game in SoCal gets picked up.

You don't think

an assistant coach will stop by a local high school to shake hands with a coach? That Nick Aliotti doesn’t stop by to visit his brother Joe at De La Salle during a football practice? That these relationships don’t affect a recruit’s decisions? One of the reasons Mack Brown gets great recruiting classes isn’t solely because he’s already in Texas—he has great relationships with Texas high school coaches.

And yes, I’ve read that an assistant coach will stay a day late or go a day early to gladhand.

by grimc on Jul 26, 2010 11:05 AM PDT up reply actions  

Unless its a game before a bye week, no

They don’t skip out and say hi to a coach on a game week. Teams fly down Friday, play Saturday, and get the hell out of town.

The relationships are formed during the offseason and during evaluation periods. In-season recruiting off campus is virtually non-existent unless a team is in a bye week. Winning games and gameplanning is more important.

by Brian Floyd on Jul 26, 2010 11:15 AM PDT up reply actions  

Okay, so you're saying

a college coach, away from home, would never take the time on a Friday night to pop over to Local High School to watch Big Time Recruit play and plant a seed with Big Time Recruit’s coach. Even though the NCAA designates the Fall as an “evaluation period”, where this sort of thing is expected to go on.

by grimc on Jul 26, 2010 11:47 AM PDT up reply actions  

Never is a pretty broad term

I’m telling you that a) there’s little time on a road trip and b) more importantly it doesn’t matter.

The seeds are planted long before the season and playing in SoCal doesn’t change that. The reason some want to play in SoCal is not to plant seeds during trips, but to tell recruits they can play at home once a year.

by Brian Floyd on Jul 26, 2010 11:52 AM PDT up reply actions  

First, I agree with cougfan, these trips just don’t happen during normal weeks. There’s simply too much work to be done, both before and after the games. This will only happen if there is a bye week following the game. And even in these cases, it won’t matter because whoever is handling southern cal will be headed down there regardless of where the previous game was played.

But even if we grant that some assistant coaches can make a couple visits to coaches before or after the game, does this really matter? There’s simply no time to build a relationship during the visit. This is done during camps and other times where coaching staffs can spend a significant amount of time coaching with the high school coaches.

These trips during game week would simply be for flattery, and there are plenty of ways to flatter high school coaches. An example of this is Dana Altman, calling up most of the big high school coaches in Oregon personally after being hired.

I just don’t see this being significant in any way. Obviously, building relationships with high school coaches is very important. But having fewer games in Southern Cal will have essentially no impact on the coaching staff’s ability to create those relationships.

by jtlight on Jul 26, 2010 11:27 AM PDT up reply actions  

Very true,

The impact of playing a game near home every season would definitely vary greatly between each recruit. And honestly, I think that the rewards of adding two teams far outweighs any recruiting losses we may incur. We get more money and more exposure. As Jtlight says above, the loss of a game in SoCal would only cost us a recruit or so every season.

The way I see it, once the Pac-12 gets rolling, we might lose a small amount of footing in SoCal, but we would surely get more exposure in more places than ever before. To me, either way we do things recruiting will only get better.

That article did have a quote from Tedford I believe where he said it was important trip for them as the LA kids usually slept at home one night. I never bought the LA importance for recruiting purposes myself but that made me rethink a bit. I can see how that would be a big deal to a kid, to get to see family (and have family see them) and sleep in their home every year at least once during the season. I went across the country for school and those rare weekends I could go home were very much appreciated.

by caguirre91 on Jul 26, 2010 8:52 AM PDT up reply actions  

I had heard that they were keeping the 9 game schedule for the foreseeable future. Reason: too tough to add meaningful OOC games since most are booked 5 to 10 years in advance. Look at how many OOC games we are going to have to pick up to replace Utah and Colorado.

Unless the schedulers are monumentally stupid, we’d play one SoCal team every year, which would translate into one game in SoCal a year.

That doesn’t make any sense. Yes, we would play either USC or UCLA every year, but why would we ALWAYS travel for it? That would mean that they would get more home games. Half the time they would come and play at Autzen, which would mean we would only play in SoCal every-other year.

I liked the modified zipper plan in Wilner’s article: NW schools + Cal & UCLA in one division, AZ schools, Colorado, UU, USC & Stan in another. Either that or give us USC & Stan.

He said we would play every year, logically, we would travel every other year. Every other year was what I thought separated the zipper and the North/South division

Layout for one idea

Ariz Arz ST

UCLA USC
Wash Wa St
Col Utah

Each team plays the in state rival with Col, Utah playing as rivals in other division and rotates 2 every year, gets you in SoCal every other year with 3 times in 4 years on a 8 game conference schedule. I’m sure a rotation could be done for a 9 game schedule as well.

If they’re keeping a nine game schedule, then we’ll be guaranteed a SoCal trip a majority of the time anyway.

The split I’d like to see is North/South with bay area combined with Northwest. Then, with the four cross-division games, you have natural travel pairs that rotate every two years. So we’d play home-aways with SoCal/Arizona, then SoCal/Mountain, then Mountain/Arizona… just a very clean, sensical, symmetrical split. And four years out of six, our schedule would look a lot like our old Pac-10 (Mountian for AZ is kind of a wash).

Now, this probably won’t happen since it means North teams would go two straight years without a game in SoCal every six years, which is about the most restrictive and “cut off” you could get. But when the worst-case scenario is 4 trips every 6 years, people are making way too big a deal about this. Especially Northwest schools – there is no chance any of them will be grouped with BOTH Los Angeles schools, and so they will be guaranteed to miss some years. But if the worst-case is missing 2 years out of 6, all they will get for their trouble is 1 or maybe 2 extra LA trips a decade.

Is that worth all the hassle? It doesn’t seem like a lot of people driving these things have thought through some of these things, and what being “cut off” divisionally from LA would truly mean.

As for not thinking about some of the expansion issues, I think the answer to that one is easy – they didn’t have time. I’m sure these things crossed Scott’s mind, and the minds of all the ADs. But everyone here is well aware of how quickly things moved once the expandageddon ball got rolling. Scott really had to shoot first and ask questions later if he wanted to accomplish the proposed endgame (having at least two additional, revenue-adding schools in the conference).

The side effect of that includes having a bunch of logistical questions that didn’t get addressed during initial planning stages. The conference assumed, rightly in my opinion, that those questions would get answered in a satisfactory manner eventually, and that none of them would be so problematic as to make the expansion a losing proposition. As frustrating as it is that these questions are hanging out there unresolved, I think we need to keep it in perspective. This was bound to happen if we wanted to act quickly to get a bigger piece of the pie, and we need to keep that in mind as we wait for answers.

What an excellent idea! Let’s create a player that bats every two or three innings and doesn’t play defense! Also, why deal with the variables of sun and wind? Let’s take it inside, where every game is played under lights and in 72 degree weather! Great idea!

by TennesseeQuackAttack8 on Jul 26, 2010 5:33 PM PDT up reply actions  

Why would I want to watch what is typically the worst hitting position in baseball? The AL removes what is typically the weak-spot from the lineup. Why should the opposing pitcher get a break every couple of innings? If I were a pitcher I would have to be money-whipped to pitch in the AL.

And, in regards to domes, you can be like the Rangers where almost all games during the summer at home are played under the lights because all the games are scheduled at night to avoid the afternoon heat and the jetstream turns harmless pop flies into home runs.

by ntrebon on Jul 26, 2010 5:42 PM PDT up reply actions  

Yes! Instead of watching someone who’s good at what he does perform that skill, let’s watch someone who’s terrible at a certain skill perform that skill three times a game! Let’s require managers to carry extra players specifically to avoid this situation cropping up at crucial parts of a game!

I don’t watch baseball games to see people who are as bad at hitting as I would be if I were up there. I want to see people who are the best in the world. Pitchers don’t seriously practice hitting. Why should they be asked to do it in a game?

As for domes, I’d rather there be baseball played in domes than watch the league try to scramble to schedule makeup games. I don’t like it as much as outdoor baseball, but it’s better than the alternative (no baseball).

by qrsouther on Jul 26, 2010 5:54 PM PDT up reply actions  

Actually, no. It makes it extremely easy on managers. In the AL, managers are forced to choose between multiple players who can actually hit a baseball, look at platoon advantages and that kind of thing. And their decisions on who to put on the mound are based on such relevant things like: who is hitting for the other team.

In the NL, if the pitcher’s spot is up, the manager doesn’t have to make a tough decision. Bases empty or two outs early in the game: swing away (and strike out), someone on base: bunt, late in the game: pinch hit. And that’s pretty much it. I don’t find it all that interesting. And then you’ve got guys like La Russa who pulls double switches just to look smart.

TJ Ward gets paid

http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/TJ-Ward-deal-has-nearly-5-million-maximum-value.html

Cleveland Browns rookie second-round safety T.J. Ward’s four-year contract carries a maximum value of nearly $5 million, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation.

The former University of Oregon standout received a $2.075 million signing bonus and a $973,000 one-timer incentive clause with over $3 million in total guaranteed money.

The guaranted money for Ward reflects a 7.5 percent increase over last year’s slot. The total value is six percent higher than last year’s slot.

The 5-foot-11, 211-pounder has 4.48 speed in the 40-yard dash and has bench pressed pressed 225 pounds 19 times with a 34-inch vertical leap.

Invited to the East-West Shrine all-star game, Ward recorded 190 career tackles, 13 pass deflections and three interceptions. He forced five fumbles over the past two seasons.

Dez Bryant has already called in sick for whatever future game he has against the Browns.

I will disagree, and here are my reasons:

-I have an irrational love for really atrocious American cheese, which is what goes into those tacos.
-I love hot sauce
-I’ve always loved the fact that they deep fry the whole thing, rather than filling a deep-fried shell
-The price. If they’re a buck-fifty each, they aren’t worth it. But two for a dollar? Sign me up.

The only worse fast food is Burger King

I’ll grant you that Burger King is awful. But McDonald’s is by far the worst.

Now, I’ll admit that I love a good fast food burger. Sonic, Wendy’s, A&W, Arctic Circle, Five Guys, Burgerville — love ’em.

Burgerville is an Oregon thing

I think Arctic Circle is largely a Utah thing, but they have a few stray stores in Oregon, including here in Woodburn. I grew up across the street from an A&W in Oakridge.

Also put Dairy Queen on the crap list. Ice Cream=good. Their burgers? Not so much.

He wouldn’t be a success in that offense if he was the starter. That’s all he can function as at Ole Miss.

Houston Nutt loves a quarterback with Masoli's tools.

they run a pro style

would you want Masoli back there slinging passes all game? He not going there because he’ll get the most PT, he’s going there because its not in the WAC.

Matt Daddy thinks he’s going there because it’s the SEC and he can get exposure.

If a certain SEC QB can run the spread and get drafted in the first round with a terrible throwing motion, Masoli has a chance.

That's part of where I am.

I also stand by what I said about Nutt. He really likes running his offense “out there” when he has the right QB or right RB taking direct snaps. Masoli also lands at a school with a chance to play in meaningful games, which could be nice for him.

It’s most likely a combination of an offense that could use his tools (although with McCluster gone I’m not sure what type of zone-read Masoli could run) as well as a chance for Masoli to showcase himself a couple extra times for the NFL scouts.

Who knows, maybe Masoli heard that getting an agent in the SEC to “take care of you” is pretty easy these days.

Sooo true...

On that note, i’ve agreed with a Duck and a Coug here tonight and am having dizzyness. I will now go to sleep and dream about a certain someone’s post coming true….

Food discussion? Most of this conversation has revolved around Fast Food, which by itself barely qualifies as food.

Note: there was no use of the 3rd person in this post.

Matt Daddy believes there were no personal pronouns used at all in that sentence. Ohhhh yeah!
