Quack Fix: Olu Ashaolu to transfer to Oregon, Ducks whip Portland
by jtlight on May 25, 2011 7:34 AM PDT
in Morning Quack Fix
Email
PrintIt's quite the depressing morning in Chicago, but hey, that's nothing a little quack won't fix:
- Oregon basketball has seen a lot of attrition in the last year, but the team got a huge boost from the announcement that Olu Ashaolu will transfer from Lousiana Tech to Oregon. As a grad student transfer, he'll be able to play immediately and with the departure of Joevan Catron, Ashaolu will fill an immediate need for the Ducks. Ashaolu had a great visit to Oregon, highlighted by a trip to the Original Pancake House. Sounds like he's very optimistic about next season, especially with the other talent the Ducks are bringing in.
- Oregon baseball beat Portland yesterday 7-2, to get the victory heading into the final series of the season against OSU. The Ducks took a 5-0 lead in the first, so this one was never in doubt.
- With the Track and Field West Regional starting this weekend, Oregon steeplechaser Claire Michel is looking to have a better showing than last year, when she broke her foot during the event. She won the Pac-10 championship last season, so the injury was a huge blow to the team. After a long rehab, Michel is the 5th ranked steeplechaser in the nation, and looking to help the Ducks to a national championship.
- George Schroeder has a piece today on the 2010 Oregon football team, and how they were truly a team, more than just the sum of the parts. I think the Ducks just wanted it more.
- Could Vin Lananna being moving on from Oregon? He's reportedly met with USA Track & Field about their vacant CEO position. While his focus is currently on the upcoming NCAA Championships, this could be a very hard opportunity to turn down.
- In women's basketball news, assistant Kai Felton is leaving the Ducks to take an assistant position with the Cal Golden Bears.
- Academic Progress Reports have been released for NCAA sports, and Oregon's scores have dipped slightly, though the Ducks are still above NCAA minimum requirements.
That's all for now, if you find anything else, leave it below. GO DUCKS!

although the Bulls are a great team. I know the Heat went about assembling the team the wrong way, but what a team to watch! James and Wade’s defense is astounding, and their 4th quarter intensity is unmatched. Its gonna be a fun finals.

Ivan Maisel has an article on Oregon’s unconventional system where they have 16 captains.
"Say the D-line kid is the captain of the team. What if there’s an issue in the secondary drills? He’s not even aware of it. We empower our guys. At some positions, where we have more than five or six players, they’ve got two. There’s three O-linemen, two D-linemen, two linebackers, two kids in the secondary. We kind of try to spread it out."
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
Great article - I have sometimes wondered
how Chip would have been received at Ohio State or Alabama. On one hand, winning is everything at those schools, so maybe they would have been fine with him as long as the results were good. On the other hand, they are so tradition driven that they may have been uncomfortable with his unconventional ways. Rich Rod at Michigan comes to mind – he was run out of town because he didn’t fit the mold of a ‘Michigan Man’ (and the NCAA issues didn’t help either). I tend to think that Oregon is an amazingly great fit for Chip. We tend to embrace the unconventional and different, and love to turn tradition on it’s ear. It’s a marriage made in heaven and he had better never divorce us or I will have to have to start sending him dead rabbits in the mail (okay, I wouldn’t do that but I do understand how someone theorhetically could be driven to such an act. No I am NOT bat shit crazy quit thinking it).
Absurdity is my favorite.
I’m pretty sure RichRod was run out of Michigan because he lost a lot of games. The rest of the stuff was just convenient for those who wanted him gone.
"Dispatch yourself with the utmost precision, and proceed as far as your individual excellency will permit." - John McEwan
He wasn't there long enough to lose 'a bunch of games'
And they won 7 last year, which is disppointing I’m sure but definitely headed in the right direction. I think it was the beatdown in the Gator bowl that did him in.
Absurdity is my favorite.
To a Michigan booster
Winning 7 means you have lost a bunch. Just sayin’.
"Dispatch yourself with the utmost precision, and proceed as far as your individual excellency will permit." - John McEwan
Especially factoring that they are the winningest program in college football history (By both total wins and pct) by 32 games… they have historical standards higher than any other program, and Rich Rod was not close to matching those expectations.
It's spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-R-E-J-E-C-T-E-D"
It probably didnt help that it sure looked like he wasnt running a clean ship...
Its probable (IMO) that if he knowingly violated practice regulations, he violated others laws a well.

My point is that the Michigan folks would have put up with a lot of that kind of crap
if he could have figured out how to beat Michigan St, Penn St, Iowa, WIscy and Ohio State.
Maybe the “and” there should be an “or”.
"Dispatch yourself with the utmost precision, and proceed as far as your individual excellency will permit." - John McEwan
Ya, I think the order of importance for his longevity very clearly goes:
1. Win more games
2. Show more integrity / get in trouble less
Maybe he gets another year if he’s not embarrassing big blue in the headlines and wins the same number of games, maybe he gets 20 more years if he wins a national championship but is caught selling crack to illegal aliens.

I kind of get where Daisy is coming from.
RichRod not being traditional, where Michigan is as traditional as you can possibly get. OTOH the problem he ran into was trying to run the spread with a roster full of “4 yards and a cloud of dust” corn-fed Midwestern kids, and the alumni had no patience for the recruiting cycles needed to get the right kids and implement the system. Which is funny, now that they have Denard Robinson and no RichRod.

Their defense was atrocious...
that would be enough in my book, especially with the talent they get.

They really didn’t have any talent. They’ve had massive attrition and injury problems.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
I am going take your word here...
because I just see what they recruit.
Juju is the same yesterday and today and forever.
Not enough talent, and pretty awful coaching on the defensive side of the ball.
THE GENTLEMAN WILL SIT! THE GENTLEMAN IS CORRECT IN SITTING!
Exactlly – I think it was short sighted to fire him before they even saw what he could do with his own recruits. Now the Michigan Man gets to play the round peg/square hole game with all the RichRod recruits. Dumb.
Absurdity is my favorite.
Yeah,
For the most part, all of Rich Rod’s offenses were damn successful. That Greg Robinson defense just couldn’t stop a damn pee wee football team from moving the ball. Widespread attrition in the defensive backfield sure didnt help, but that defense was far from decent with starters in place.

"What the hell was that?"
"Spaceball One, they've gone to plaid!"
My point was the scheme...
we knew they were talented. However, they are going with a small lineup. Not only that but their d tackle rotation has one 300 pounder at 6’6" and 3 of the top 5 are 280 or below. They will use 5/6 dbs 75% of the time.
Juju is the same yesterday and today and forever.
Was reading yesterdays quack fix & saw the discussion about the WRs, what about instead of keeping Huff in the slot move him outside & put Barner there? That way we can have Barner & James on the field at the same time
I’m sure there will be times Barner and James are on the field at the same time.
Kelly and Frost also use tests to know what position WRs are best suited for. It isn’t just about getting the best players on the field, but the best players in their best positions.
It's spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-R-E-J-E-C-T-E-D"
Barner will play TZR.
Chip and Helf have both alluded to it as a way to get KJB more touches. So we’ll see him in the slot, and probably wide, and certainly in the backfield alongside James and DT.

I don't think it is bad reporting that there is a rumor as long as he is up front about it being a rumor.
Unfortunately we have seen over the last several seasons that these rumors have at least a kernel of truth to them. so I am not going to dismiss it out of hand. So, at this point I guess it is just a waiting game, either the rumors will be substantiated or not.
"What the hell was that?"

Unfortunately, while I definitely know we need to wait and see, after what we’ve been through the last year or two I tend to have a ‘where there’s smoke there’s fire’ outlook. I’d love this one to be total bunk however.

Allegedly involved cliff harris and some people i know. Actually i know the kids sister. Anyways the story she is telling is that her brother and cliff got in some sort of verbal altercation and that was about it, once her brother left the bar he got jumped by a bunch of black dude was her words. She is also a huge usc fan so who knows. lol

Discussion of Oregon on CFB Live
right now…Herbie and the boys think it’s all Chip Kelly. Very good players, yes. But Chip Kelly is the difference and Oregon absolutely can get back to the title game because they play with Chip Kelly’s attitude. Also, after meeting him when he was out here, Urban is very impressed with DT as a leader.
Absurdity is my favorite.
not sure if this got posted a few days back but it’s interesting – especially since almost all their recruits are in their backyards already.
Alabama spent more than $218,000 the last three years on services to provide the school with recruiting information, compared to $99,000 for Auburn.

Life is about growth. People are not perfect when they're 21 years old. - Bill Walton
My understanding is that the sanctions were in place, but they can recruit and sign around them while under appeal. But this years overages will count towards next years class so they will have to reduce the amount of available scholarships. At least that’s what I have read.
I’m not making a bold prediction, but we believe we can win every football game.----Chip Kelly
The sanctions were not officially in effect while USC was appealing the decision, so last year was simply business as usual. USC will be limited to 15 signees (including all the fun math that always takes place) in the 2012-2014 recruiting signing years.
If the scholarship limits were lessened, USC likely would have been able to count 2011 against the probation years. Because of this ruling, they won’t.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
USC had nothing to lose by signing a huge class this year. If the sanctions were lessened or taken away, cool, they have a full class. If not, they load up on bodies now for when in the future they’re not able to bring in more.
You have to wonder what they told the 30 signees they got this year regarding the nature of the appeal and the chances of it hurting them in the future.
"the putz from that UO blog, Matt Daddy" - Steve Tannen
The Daily Faberian
Got it, but they also have a cap on the total number of scholarships available(75), right, and considering the size of the recruiting class they had that could play into the number of players they can recruit next year. Obviously that will depend on attrition next year, but it will be interesting to see how it all plays out.

There have been a few times people have gotten the two New England-bred Kellys mixed up, but as Oregon’s Chip and Notre Dame’s Brian continue to achieve success on the gridiron, those things are less likely to happen. Like Bama-Boise, this matchup would feature a great juxtaposition of the old and the new. Here you have the most traditional-looking program (with the possible exception of Penn State) going up against the ultimate upstart in Oregon, with its fleet of spectacular uniforms and flashy style.

There’s a tornado warning in Chico, CA right now. That’s rare.

A pretty damn big one actually touched down in that area
But thankfully it was in a rural area.
Self anointed President of the Kenjon Barner fan club.
That's what mostly happened here too
Some people injured in towns far south of Lafayette, where I am, but nothing severe besides rain and wind.

I'd hoped they'd spend some time on the defense
and Meyer was happy to oblige, bless his heart.

This really is a great segment. They didn't say anything that all of us don't know...
but I still think it is neat that they would do a segment on us. I didn’t even go through any real bad years but I can remember sitting in the rain in Autzen watching the scoreboard tick over to the tune of 56-14 Huskies (I believe this is the correct score off the top of my extremely tired brain); and it is AMAZING how far we have come since then.
Go Ducks!
Drink the Kool-aid my friends, it tasted damn fine.

is that when Tuiosossoopoopoo was the QB?
I think that is the last time they gave us a real beat down.
"What the hell was that?"
"Spaceball One, they've gone to plaid!"
The last beatdown was 42-14
2002. Might as well have been 56, but UW hasn’t laid over 50 on us since ’77.
Cody Pickett was QB. Reggie Williams caught something like 35 passes for 420 yards. I exaggerate slightly.
And those assholes danced on the O and wore their stupid “Northwest Championship” jerseys.
And it rained all through the 2nd half.

That's right
Tuisosoospopoopie was QB in the 90’s.
"What the hell was that?"
"Spaceball One, they've gone to plaid!"
To be picky
He was also the QB of the 2000 team that we beat in Autzen. One of my favorite games ever attended.
Prince: This bores me. Is anyone up for a game of basketball?
Ditto. Remember the clangers? And how the conference banned them after that game?
The irony. It’s louder without the clangers; it’s hard to yell OOOOOOOOOOOOO and bang things together over your head simultaneously.
"Dispatch yourself with the utmost precision, and proceed as far as your individual excellency will permit." - John McEwan
I guess you are right (not surprisingly)
For some reason I thought I remembered losing 54-14 the year after we lost 42-10 but it appears that 2 years in a row the score was 42-10 (ugh- I just puked in my mouth).
I guess that is the sort of accuracy in my memories I have from my hazy undergrad years.

How has the jock box
LOWERED our athletes’ scores?
Dear Pit Crew,
If my ears aren't ringing, YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG.
transfers and other players leaving early negatively impact your score.
our APR for basketball will be in the shitter the next couple years.

I highly recommend Word of Mouth Bistro.
They’re opening another location, so it won’t be long until you’re not going to have to wait 30-45 mins. to be seated. I HIGHLY recommend their “plate of love.” Amazing hash and creme brulee french toast on one plate. Just amazing. They also have really good biscuits, and if you’re interested in spending a little more for breakfast, they have an amazing chicken fried filet mignon. Great place.
Oh, and if you want really good beer (like some of the best in Oregon), Venti’s always has a great, rotating tap list.
Finally, we have the best burger I’ve eaten in the state at Willamette Burger Company.
Salem has a lot of great places to eat…you just have to look for them in between all of the boring chain restaurants and millions of mexican restaurants.

Yep, but as I said
There aren’t enough of them.

I read your comment wrong...
yes…there aren’t enough good places here in Salem. Have you tried The Little Cannoli bakery in the Reed Opera House? Really good dessert place.
"Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do" -- John Wooden
When I worked downtown I was there more often than i should have been, and it shows. Also liked the mexican place on the 2nd floor.
Now that I’m workiciled out by the airport it’s easy to see why some have the impression that it’s a total wasteland around here. It takes at least ten minutes to get anywhere that’s not nationally advertised. OTOH, I’m just as far from WoM as I was when I worked across from the conf center. Which means I’m highly irritated that there’s now a WoM going in a block from my old office.
Kim Huong, the viet place out by the fairgrounds? Also very good. Great pho.
There’s also a new owner of the old Chinese place on the south side of State next to the bank. Called Full House now and they have a full sushi menu. Tell the hostess Ping that you are my friend and she will treat you well. I told her I would send all my friends there. Don’t let me down.

There are SO many things wrong with this statement.
Tell the hostess Ping that you are my friend and she will treat you well. I told her I would send all my friends there. Don’t let me down.
The "Bill Simmons" of ATQ
So many?
Name one.

So you’re saying you’ve changed?
"Dispatch yourself with the utmost precision, and proceed as far as your individual excellency will permit." - John McEwan
If you’re going to tell Ping you’re my friend, you’ll have to do a better job of selling it than that.
"Dispatch yourself with the utmost precision, and proceed as far as your individual excellency will permit." - John McEwan
I'll have to try it.
I’m never one to turn down Chinese food.

They make their hash with prime rib.
And caramelized onions.
Or if you want corned beef hash, they do that too. But the prime rib is tits.

Ouch.
Portlanders! My favorite breakfast joint is Besaw’s. Anyone? Anyone?
Absurdity is my favorite.
Tasty and Son's, Irving Street Kitchen, or Simpatica are my go to Brunch places if I have friends in town
Still haven’t made it to Besaw’s
Best pankcakes on the planet:
OriginalHotcake House on SE Powell.

Yup. One of my friends used to call it "24-Hour Hotcake House" and the name caught on (amongst my friends). I always need to look the actual name up on Yelp when recommending it.
They don’t wait on you and can sometimes be surly. Fellow patrons are frequently interesting. The pancakes are huge, so I wouldn’t recommend getting more than two. I’ve never had anything bad there.
They used to charge a late-night fee (a dollar per person), so you might want to go during the day.

I am also a fan of the Roxy, but I don't remember ever ordering breakfast there.
The Ruben is tasty. I am a huge movie fan, so their menu is part of the appeal. Everything is cleverly named after celebrities and or characters played by celebrities in movies. From memory (may not be accurate): Paul Reubens Reuben; stacks of pancakes according to size: Marilyn Monroe, Pam Anderson or Dolly Parton; Steve Buscemi’s namesake mentions a wood chipper and Charles Bukowski mentions gasoline and cigarettes (both are are sandwiches, I believe); Elvis is, you guessed it-steak and eggs.
If I had kids, I’d be comfortable bringing them there. If you are at all up tight about language or alternative lifestyles, know that the “F” bomb is used on the menu at least once and drag kitsch is everywhere (and hysterical!). Oh, and there is a neon-crowned crucifix..

Sargent’s Cafe is amazing! I lost my biscuits and gravy virginity there.

Anyone watch South Park tonight?
Cartman goes into the office of the athletic director at CU and asks how they manage to have slaves and use their likenesses for the video game they are making for their crack baby basketball league. I don’t watch it much lately, but this one was pretty funny.

Slash isn’t real. He’s based on a Dutch fairy tale.
I liked that part.

Don’t forget Cartman’s hot tub filled with KFC gravy.

Denny's with bacon on everything
There were a lot of levels to this one, pretty hilarious.

I’m pretty sure the Denny’s thing was an actual event.

Yesh, that one was real.
Still panned by South Park, but more real than Slash.

Says the Pac 12 could make an additional $1 billion over 7-10 years from the PAC 12 Network, that’s $8.3-11.9 million per school per year.
