Quack Fix: Monday practice recaps and starting QB to be named on Saturday

PrintWe have a bunch of quack from yesterday's practices, including the news that Coach Kelly will name his starting QB on Saturday. Let's dive right in.
- First, let's breeze through the practice recaps from yesterday: Andy McNamara has brief anecdote on Spencer Paysinger enforcing a punishment for the defense after they failed to make a play during team drills. As was noted yesterday in runfast's recap, Daryle Hawkins saw time at the running back and slot receiver positions on Monday. Chris Courtney gives a slight edge to Nate Costa after Monday, noting that Darron Thomas appeared to have problems handling a few snaps. Moseley, however, discounts the mishandled snaps, citing the large number of reps the players have been taking. Finally, as axemen reported in the quack fix yesterday, Blake Cantu appears to be suffering from a shoulder injury (again).
- As I am sure all of us have heard by now, Chip Kelly plans to name a starting quarterback on Saturday morning. John Hunt also has a blog entry about the promise that Brandon Williams has displayed in his first few weeks as a Duck, while reminding us that he still has a lot to learn.
- Moseley's feature piece in today's Register Guard focuses on the offensive line. Despite the fact that all five starters return from last season, Steve Greatwood has been "tinkering" with the line by swapping C.E. Kaiser and Mark Asper at the right tackle and guard spots.
- Gary Horowitz has a story on the returning depth at wide receiver who will try to make the job easier for whichever quarterback wins the job.
- Ken Goe has piece on new Track & Field assistant coach Jamie Cook, who joins the staff this year after coming over from Penn, where he had spent the last 10 years. Vin Lananna sounds high on Cook, noting that he considered him for a position when he was at Stanford and that he was a considered for the same position last year at Oregon.
There are a few video interviews after the jump, so make sure them check out.

Great news for Blake.
Sounds like Blake Cantu might have dodged a bullet with his shoulder injury Monday and could return fairly quickly.
Hopefully he makes a really speedy recovery. I’d love to see him do well, and it sounds like he’s been stepping up in camp.

I just skimmed that sentence when I first read it, and then thought, “Who the hell is shooting a gun at Blake Cantu!?!?”

LaMichael James’ thinks his decision to sprint for the track team last spring helped him gain another step.
“It worked out great,” James said. “I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been. I’m faster, and my running mechanics are better.”
James and Kenjon Barner were part of the 4×100 relay team that placed fourth in the Pacific-10 Conference Championships. It was a win-win for the football and track teams.
The men’s track team got an infusion of raw speed without having to put a lot of scholarship money into the sprints, and the football team got faster athletes for the fall.
Football coach Chip Kelly and track coach Vin Lananna are excited about the potential this has for both programs.

Love Boyett, and all the props for the D-Boyz . I recall thinking when I first heard that name how that may have been a little overhyped, but now a few years down the road and seeing what all of them are doing in the NFL it’s pretty clear how special they all were.
Here’s to the next DB group and those big shoes of theirs!
Hoover: They confiscated everything, even the stuff we didn't steal!
That was a special group
The four of them (Thurmond, Ward, Chung, Byrd) were all drafted by at least the 4th round. It confuses me to think why the 2008 pass defense was so bad. We were ranked tenth in Pac-10 conference games in that statistic. I seem to remember our rush defense was quite good, so maybe Allioti was just selling out to stop the run a lot? Probably need to give him credit though, after the scheme change, our 2009 pass defense rocketed up to number one in conference games, and we still had a sturdy run defense (I choose to forget Stanford).
It wasn’t that bad. We weren’t ranked tenth by logical statistics.
We faced 100 more pass attempts than any other team in the conference. The only team in the country that faced more passing attempts was Missouri whom also plays a similar style of offense.
They were overrated, but not nearly as bad as people make it out to be.
it’s spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-A-L-L-W-A-R-M-A-N-D-F-U-Z-Z-Y"
You're right
“so bad” is probably an overreaction. When you look at the yards/pass allowed in 2008, it’s average… although I do seem to remember a lot of painful 3rd and long conversions, but correct me if I’m wrong. I guess I’m trying to say that the scheme (and maybe support from the other defensive groups) might not have allowed this group to shine like they could’ve, because we obviously had a wealth of talent in the secondary that year. I’m really excited to see the defense in year two of the 3-4, and with all the returning experience in the secondary we could expect to see similar results from last year.
You can’t underestimate the impact the play of the linebackers and d-line had on the secondary as well. Those years were not really our strongest when it came to d-line and linebacker play.
Still, their achievements at the next level stands out in comparison to how they performed in college.
Hey Daisy, git me anudder one!

I actually am adjusting my opinion, slightly...
After looking into some more stats, I think our pass defense did a pretty good job on 3rd downs.
Oregon was average with 3rd downs, placing 65th in the country.
When passing on 3rd and 10+, Oregon allowed 12 1st downs out of 51passing attempts; 23% conversion rate. I don’t feel like calculating 120 teams to figure out what the average is, but I think that’s pretty decent. However, another metric shows that Oregon was pretty good, with QBs averaging 93.04 passer rating in this scenario.
When passing on 3rd and 7-9 yards, Oregon allowed 11 1st downs out of 39 passing attempts; 28 % conversion rate. Slightly worse in a slightly more difficult scenario. QBs averaged 97.94 passer rating in this scenario.
When running on 3rd and 10+, Oregon allowed 2 1st downs out of 17 rushing attempts. 11% conversion rate.
When running on 3rd and 7-9 yards, Oregon allowed 3 1st downs out of 13 rushing attempts. 23% conversion rate
Overall, Oregon faced more 3rd downs than anyone, except, once again, Missouri. But their conversion rate was middle of the pack at 64th in the country at a rate of 39.38%.
It wasn’t top-of-the-country, statistically, but I don’t think they did that bad. 3rd and long conversions suck. They are painful, and I think their emotional impact actually over shadowed their actual efforts. I remember thinking we were sucking on 3rd and long too.

Yeah, must’ve been that the 3rd and long conversions just hang around longer in the memory. Plus, as you stated, we faced many 3rd downs, so there will be more long conversions which might skew what I remember. Thanks for all the stats and links!
I also noticed that Missouri played 14 games in 2008, because of the championship game they played in. If you go by 3rd downs faced per game, I think Oregon is tops in the land.
So maybe they were more of a “B-” or “C” vs D boyz….

If the numbers are right that’s more than double what OSU pays. Colorado has to come up with the Big 12 penalty somehow.
What I don’t get is why the Buckeyes would pay so much. Are there a ton of Colorado grads in Ohio or something? Even in Denver there don’t seem to be too many people fired up about them.

The only other development of interest: we gave a total of five points to Oregon State for Nude Taser Rhino, because if any event demanded extra bonus points, it’s a drunk nude football player in a three-point stance charging the cops. The state of Oregon now stands tied at 14 points a piece for UO and OSU, and no ties will be broken here since the state should accept the state prize for THE STATE MOST RUCKUS-SOME in college football with unified pride. Well done, assorted tipsy Beavers and Ducks.

Hawkins @ WR and RB
Does anyone else think that Hawkins seeing time at other positions is simply a way for him to understand the playbook better? By learning and actually running the play at a different position, wouldn’t you think that he’d know where a WR or RB should be the next time he ran the play as a QB?
I’m thinking this is why Masoli saw time @ the slot receiver position this spring. I don’t necessarily think it’s a sign of a position change, more of getting to know the plays better.
May we hand you your taints on a silver platter...
They did the same thing with Chris Harper. He played along like he was okay with it, showed some flashes of real potential at WR, then bailed and ran home to Kansas State. Of course Morgan Flint probably had a better throwing arm than Harper, so it may not be an apples-to-apples comparison.
And in the Yell-O corner, with a 2009 conference record of 8 wins, 1 loss...the REIGNING...DEFENDING...UNDISPUTED Champions of the PAC TEN...the Oregon Ducks!
by MarineCorpsDuck on Aug 24, 2010 12:40 PM PDT up reply actions
No.
After watching practice this weekend, and being thin at WR, I think CK is truly looking at rolling Hawkins in as a WR should the need emerge this season. Ignoring injuries, I think he has a much better opportunity to get on the field as a WR.
Both gold and muck come out of the same shaft...
After reading Moseley...I agree here.
I see where this comes in. It mentioned that he was recruited as an athlete, so I’m taking that for what it’s worth.
May we hand you your taints on a silver platter...
he strikes me as a good WR development candidate

"Our expectations are to win every game we play. I don’t know if that’s ever going to happen .... but no one ever rises to low expectations." --Chip Kelly
So this confuses me
The Buffs would have to forfeit 50 percent of conference distributions for those two years.
or
Big 12 bylaws require schools to forfeit 80 percent of conference distributions with just one year notice of an intention to leave.
So if we assume CU is getting $10MM each year over the next two years, then they would owe either $5MM per for a two year exit equaling $10MM or $8MM for a one year exit. Why would they give up the extra $2MM to stay an extra year?
Hey Daisy, git me anudder one!
Addicted to Quack
Since you asked, I finally figured it out
It’s 50% over two years or 80% over those same two years. Even if the Buffs aren’t in the Big 12 in 2011, they would have to forfeit 80% of what they would’ve made and pay it back.
That isn’t surprising. CU AD has it worse economically than most do. They still have Dan Hawkins because they can’t really afford to fire him. Buying out of the Big-12 is probably just too expensive for Colorado.

CBS Sports thinks Oregon State won't go bowling?
Picked them to finish 8th in the conference too. Seems like a big stretch to me.
It’s never wise to pick against Mike Riley and the Beavers. They’ve won at least eight each year since 2006. We’re doing it anyway. Oregon State has overscheduled in the non-con (TCU at Cowboys Stadium, at Boise State). Riley has to break in a new starter at quarterback (Ryan Katz). The All-American-level talents of Jacquizz and James Rodgers will not be enough to get the Beavers to a bowl game for the fifth straight season.
Even if they win only one OOC game, I think we can sport them three wins out of WSU, ASU, UCLA, and Cal, then they can’t pick up two more wins in 5 games with the two biggest ones at home? OSU will be in a bowl.

I see no scenario, save for a MAJOR injury to Jacquizz AND James, that will keep them out of a bowl game.

Oh Jesus Christ...
if it’s not Daisy baiting us with recipe questions, it’s high schoolers and their inability to cook the easiest things… ok here goes:
You need to have a good non-stick pan. If that means you need to add an extra layer of non-stick spray to an otherwise crappy pan, so be it.
Crack the egg, and then here comes the hard part… be patient. You may want to slide your spatula around the edges to make sure they aren’t sticking and are going to end up with scrambled eggs.
After a few minutes when you can see that the surrounding whites are starting to solidify, slide your spatula under the egg and give it a quick flip.
Here’s another important part, once you flip it, leave it. If you try to make it the perfect flip, once again look forward to scrambled eggs. If it’s 75% flipped, leave it. Wait a few more minutes until you have the underside slightly cooked. Use your finger to test the firmness of the yoke, don’t use the spatula, or you get scrambled eggs. Once you have it the temperature and firmness you want, slide it onto your plate and voila, eggs over easy.
Hey Daisy, git me anudder one!

YOGI BERRA
Yoke?
A yoke is a wooden beam which is used between a pair of oxen to allow them to pull a load (oxen almost always work in pairs). It can be used to help plow fields. There are several types, used in different cultures, and for different types of oxen. A pair of oxen is also called a yoke of oxen, and yoke is also used as a verb: “to yoke a pair of oxen”.

I just went over to EDSBS and suggested they need more than that.

Talking about how we need to realize this is no laughing matter.
But thing is, its REALLY FUNNY, it is a laughing matter, of sorts.

That douche.
If it happened to a UO player, he would be railing against Coach Kelly’s “lack of control” as the cause of this incident. However, now he is writing about this in a serious tone that has nothing to do with any apparent “lack of control” at Oregon State (for the record, there is no lack of control at OSU)?

someone needs to link to the fulmer cup standings in Canzano's comments section
and point out that OSU and UO now have the same amount of points. It’s a 2 way street buddy either CK runs a tight-ass ship, or Riley has some splainin to do.

I know CK doesn’t care about ‘bulletin board’ stuff but someone should slip this under the locker room door:
You won’t hear too many Tennessee fans expecting an eight-win season, but local radio host Tony Basilio is predicting the Vols will beat Oregon and win eight games this fall:
A win over Oregon is coming. Tennessee get that Oregon and the march to 8 wins is on. Oregon has to come across the country in the heat and humidity and hang in. They have a lofty ranking against a team that’s sure to be a Vegas underdog on it’s home field. Not a great combination for the Ducks. The crowd will be charged up and Tennessee will respond in this spot. This catapults the Vols to an 8 win campaign that unfolds like this.

Speaking of Cliff Harris
I’m watching the replay of last year’s Civil War and the opening kick off he is set to return with Barner and Barner receives the kick. Harris proceeds to go downfield an block and takes out two guys… both Ducks. Ugh. I think this is what Aliotti means when he says:
He just has to be more disciplined in his game, and, really, more disciplined overall.

i noticed that a long time ago too when someone posted saying they couldn’t wait to see Cliff returning kicks and I could have sworn he was back there … how in the hell did he run into two Ducks?!?!?!? Was his HS school team’s colors orange and/or black?
The funny thing is, he didn’t just run into them. He laid out Michael Clay who took out Casey Matthews. I mean, he took out two stud Oregon LBs in one feel swoop.

Was our offense that much less powerful last year than 2008?
I really wouldn’t have guessed.

Nick Reed is down
Knee surgery, out several weeks. Hope he’s back soon, I was really looking forward to watching him play this year. Here’s the article.
That's rough...
he turned in a ‘all pre-season’ performance last year and seemed to have a good start this year too.
I was hoping to hear about his exploits this season. Hopefully it’s not too serious.

I'm guessing Canzano will say that Turner struck Kelly, right?
Things got a little chippy late in the day, perhaps owing to the return of 90-degree temperatures, as Terrell Turner jabbed Carson York in the face mask. Kelly and Nick Aliotti got all over Turner, and the situation didn’t escalate.

Turner is Blount, who jabbed York, who was Kelly, who was Bellotti.

You’re the one that highlighted my dunce-ness by showing off your own un-dunce-ability. And don’t tell me you wiki’d the whole thing just to make yourself sound like one of the cool dumb kids. You and your big brain don’t get to hang with us in the dunce corner. And you can be sure we’re going to have a seriously ruckus-some party over here. We’ve invited Tyler Thomas over.

Hey (sic) is for horses!
Not knowing the obstruent manners of articulation hardly qualifies one as a dunce.
I’ve been called many names for pointing out vowels and consonant are not letters per se, but articulated obstruents and sonorants. (e.g. Eigh, as in “Eight” is actually a singular vowel).
I’m an uncool geek that works in a nerdling factory for knowing this crap. I’m not proud of it.
