Quack Fix: Depth at TE, Darron Thomas Was Asleep, Curtis White Injury
by dvieira on Aug 19, 2011 7:01 AM PDT
in Morning Quack Fix
Email
PrintJared was nice enough to take my Quack Fix yesterday so I return the favor today. Thanks to all our new followers on Twitter and keep it here for all the news that's fit to quack about.
- Some practice notes including an injury report on Curtis White who had to be helped off the field by cart but later returned to the sidelines with crutches. Status, of course, day-to-day and at least he had a good humor about it. Kiko Alonso also saw some practice with the ones although it seems his playing status for the LSU game is uncertain.
- The video of the Cliff Harris traffic stop has been out for awhile now but it looks like Darron Thomas has a few things to say about his role in the event. I like Darron, I really do but he has ended up in these types of situations more than once. Wrong place at the wrong time or on the edge of falling over that cliff (pun intended).
- KVAL and SI look at one of the most anticipated college football games of 2011.
- Oregon has been known as Tight-End U for awhile now and even though we have a good one coming back in David Paulson, we have depth issues that will need to be addressed, especially with Brandon Williams having to give up his senior season due to back issues.
- Needing something to do tonight for free? Go watch a Duck volleyball scrimmage between the current squad and some old vets. The scrimmage starts at 7pm at Matthew Knight Arena.
Friday couldn't come soon enough. A few short hours till the weekend. Hang in there and Go Ducks!

Watched Casey playing for the Eagles last night
The Eagles were missing their two top run-stopper DT’s for the game so I saw Casey basically having to fight through an Olineman all night because the Steelers did not have to commit to the double team on either DT during running downs.
He stills looks like he needs to add weight to be the average NFL LB size.
Oh and Vick looked bad. Made me feel better about picking Arian Foster over him for my #1 pick in last weekend’s fantasy draft

Casey’s up to 245 now. There pretty much only 3 players that had good games last night for us. People are overreacting I think it’s just the pre-season if it was last week people would be saying the opposite about both teams & the Eagles played a way better team then the Steelers did. Back to Casey though for a second I have wondered if MLB is his long term position for us, for instance even we’ve never drafted a LB in the first under Andy Reid if Vontaze Burfict is on the board next year when we pick I think we should take him & move Casey to WLB
Twitter- @kjbrophy
Then u can move Casey back to MLB after Burficts 1st suspension.

An interesting click on Curtis' injury 'report'
which took me to SB Nation that said AtQ had an injury report on Curtis White

I think DT is guilty of something here...
He shows signs implicating he might not be telling the truth. He seems nervous and looks all over the place. When asked if he has been tested for pot he looks even more nervous.
But all in all, questioning him as a leader without having substantial proof of anything just scream “National Inquirer” “The globe” etc,.
I think Clownzo would move up the ranks REALLY fast in a magazine like that!
ssshhh....
That seems par for the course for DT interviews

He always looks all over the place.
He was probably pretty agitated though – I would be too.

A good leader's spidey sense would have woken him up at the first hint of danger.
A good leader would have telekinetic radar detectors implanted in his forehead so he’d have known the cop was waiting for them.
A good leader would have searched all potential car passengers for illicit substances before getting in the car himself.
A good leader would perform field sobriety tests on whoever was driving the car before he allowed them to get behind the wheel.

I can easily believe it.
Those who are incredulous are either light sleepers or crotchety old folk who need complete darkness and silence to get a decent night of sleep.
I, on the other hand, am the complete opposite. My mom trained me to sleep easily when I was young, having me take naps while she vacuumed or blasted Bruce Springsteen. When I’m tired, I’m tired. And nothing will stop me from getting rest.
Having the ability to sleep anywhere, and under any circumstances, has been a blessing for me. It makes traveling easy, power naps easy, and allows me to have a nice siesta on occasion. I obviously don’t prefer it, but I can pass out in a car, on a plane, or ball up on the floor after a dinner party. Loud, quiet, bright, dark – bring it on.
While I have no idea whether or not DT is telling the truth (as nobody else does), I have no problem believing that he might have been sleeping. At 4am, on a boring drive down i5, after a long day and night in Portland, I am passed the **** out unless I’m driving.

Seriously, the most boring stretch I’ve ever driven was the breadth of South Dakota on I90. Not only is the road itself shite, when they label the few exits they have they don’t even bother telling you where they might be exits to. Just says “Exit 230” and an arrow. Once you get over counting Wall Drug signs it’s mind-numbing.

Bus sleeping
Back in the olden days when I used to ride the old Greyhound/Trailways system up and down the pacific corridor, I found it absurdly easy to nod off as soon as the bus hit the freeway. Something about the drone.
Planes, not as easy, maybe because there’s more noise and turbulence and such, but I can do that too.

Me too. I call it my superpower. I’m never lacking sleep, cause I can do it under most any circumstances….through stress, bumpy/winding car rides, cramped airplane seats (I’m tall and these legs don’t fold up easily), wasted/loud roommates, barking dogs. Hell, in the hotel in Pasadena before the Rose Bowl (stress!), I slept through THE FIRE ALARM (not good).
Let’s just say I have no problem believing that DT slept on the car ride on straight-as-an-arrow I5 at 4am.
Haha yep.
I’m really good at deciding whether or not a restaurant is good without even seeing the food.
And people always want what I order. They’re great skills. I’m always well-rested, and I almost never have a bad meal out. And I’m pretty picky – make that snobby – about what I consider good food.
A well-rested and well-fed man can accomplish a lot.

Jabari Brown talks about his time so far at Oregon, and the upcoming trip to Italy
I gotta admit, I’m actually excited about basketball this year. What a weird feeling.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
I like his stoicism.
I, too, am really excited this year. I think Jabari has all the tools to become a dominant player, and if things go well, he could become one of the greatest players to have stepped on campus. I’m really rooting for him.
And while we may not finish top 2 or 3 in the Pac, I think teams won’t be looking forward playing us…
and will be scared sh**less to play us at Matt. It’s going to be fun this year.
It’s really awesome to feel excited about Duck basketball again.

Quite frankly its not like the players didnt know the season was about to start
Yeah, because Chip goes so light on his players. It’s not as if one of our 3 best players isn’t missing arguably our biggest game (Cliff). And it’s not as if he hasn’t suspended people for seasons (Kiko), near seasons (Blount), games (LaMike), indefinitely (Cliff and Kiko again), and hasn’t kicked people off the team (Holland, Masoli). It might be hard to remember this, because none of those players are good or important to our team and are easy to forget.

Oh sweet jeezus. I love it.
It’s ok though, you see…Jefferson actually got in the fight. It’s ok to do stupid stuff, remember? You just aren’t, as a good leader, allowed to be present when other people are doing stupid stuff. For example: if he had been at that bar with another member of the team, and that person got in a fight and Jefferson didn’t prevent the fight from happening, then he’d be a bad leader. Like Darron Thomas…they say, as a good leader, he should have been the one driving on a suspended license instead of being in the presence of a teammate driving with a suspended license.
I mean, we all know that the game on September 3rd is going to be a total clusterfuck. Each person on offense is going to run whichever play they feel like and go on whatever snap count they decide they want to use. Because, when Jefferson and DT call the play and give the snap count, the other players are going to look at them and laugh in their faces because one got in a scuffle in a bar and the other was riding shotgun while someone got a speeding ticket. You really expect 18-22 year old athletes to take these guys seriously after the young QB’s are associated with bar fights, speeding tickets, and weed?

I just spelunked through the TigerDroppings thread
A poster there is friends with the alleged victim, and this is the story.
Some guy is driving his truck, trying to leave the parking lot of this bar. A dozen or so LSU football players were walking around and were blocking the exit of the lot, so the dude honks his horn to get them to move so he can leave. Two players get all “wouldst thou start something?” and the dude’s all “negative good sirs, I just desire to leave the premises, yet the way is obstructed” and the two players are all like, “we would not like to listen to this any longer” so they yank him out of the truck and beat his ass.
Then, the poster’s friend sees what’s going on and tries to get the guy out of there, when Jordan Jefferson and a few other players come over and bring the pain.

nothing in the story actually places Jefferson in the bar, so the under-21 thing might not matter

The backstory on Thomas’ flip?
by Paragon SC on Feb 4, 2011 12:38 PM PST
11 COMMENTS EMAIL PRINTADMIN
I received this morning but have waited for permission to post it from my source, which I received a short time ago.
This is from a very reliable source inside the southland gang taskforce re Thomas;
He actually isn’t a punk. He is a good kid. What happened is, he was at a
party and some gang bangers killed a guy. He did the right thing and
cooperated with the police and they arrested the murderers. As a result
of his cooperation, the gang bangers put a hit on him and his family. The
hit is credible and they truly fear for their lives. As a result, he shot
up to Oregon and decided to go there to get away from the threat. That is
why he was crying when he made the announcement. He was the kid in the
class that was actively recruiting other recruits to come to USC. He did
us a tremendous favor by recruiting kids to SC and forestalling his
announcement until after we had our 30 guys.
The kid is heartbroken.
I have changed nothing here…just copy and paste. I am offering nothing with respect to any commentary. I am not even going to Tweet it.
Take it for what its worth.

The "Bill Simmons" of ATQ
The real reason she hates the zombie meme?
Daisy actually isn’t a punk. She’s a good kid. What happened is, she was at a party and some users rumored about a guy. She did the right thing and flagged the post and they banned the users. As a result of her flagging, the users have spammed her and her family with HRDBONERPILZ. The ads aren’t credible and they get in the way. As a result, she started hating this meme and she decided to pretend to hate it. That’s why she was laughing when she first read their spin. She was the commenter telling everyone to rec it. She did us a tremendous favor by making the meme popular and now she has to pretend to hate it.
The kid is heart broken.

Honestly, when I lived in Texas
I hardly ever saw any references to rodeos. I know they are big in west Texas and I know they exist in central Texas, but hell, if you want to ride a bull, you just have to cross to eastern Oregon. It’s not like there’s not rodeos there.
Kind of hard when you're living in Los Angeles.
Eastern Oregon isn’t as close as it used to be. Texas it is, I suppose.

too bad you don’t live in my area (actually maybe a good thing) There are two girls up the road about 3 miles that supply bulls to rodeos. Two days ago I had to call the sheriff at 3am for a BIG bull walking down the road about a mile from my house. I have to be pretty careful driving around not to hit deer, horses, cows, and skunks that find their way onto the roads. Rabbits I don’t care about, I hit one or two every night.

Logos
Not sure if anyone ever posted this on here. This guy I work with is a big Coug fan. His neighbor fooled around with the Ducks’ logo(s) and came up with some of his own. He contacted the school to see about licensing, but they told him they aren’t interested because they don’t want the skull associated with the school…which struck me as ironic since they athorized that Autzen Reaper stuff for the Halloween USC game. Anyway, the guy makes stickers out of them. I got some for myself to put on my truck and my dirt bike, but I never put anything here about them. He can make any of them, in any size you want. I’m not trying to sell anything; I just like a couple of the logos and wanted to share them. The site is GoYoHoHo.com and there’s an email address for anyone interested.

A professional writer and pot-stirrer like Clownzano interviewing a redshirt freshman who has done extremely limited on-air interviews? I think we all know that he’s going to make Lache look terrible. I’m sure he’s been doing nothing but re-writing his questions over and over so that they can be in the trickiest form possible and paint Lache in a negative light no matter how he answers. And I’m positive he’ll wait until after the interview is over and Lache is off the phone to go ahead and make some accusatory statements without giving Lache the opportunity to respond.
I seriously don’t know why the Ducks make players available to him. Especially Lache, especially now, especially since he’s already proven that he sees it as “just doing his job” to tear these guys down.

We're looking at it the wrong way
Who’s the best guy to teach a young football player? Chip Kelly. Who is All World at making John C*nz*no look like a douchebag? Chip Kelly.
Maybe this is a Jedi mind trick, and when John opens the interview with “So Lache, tell me how much Willie Lyles sleazed you up in high school” and he will respond “Actually, Mr. C*nz*no, I thought we’d talk about YOUR parents today. Would YOUR mother sign your LOI? Would she? Does she even talk to you John? When was the last time your dad sent a birthday card that was NOT made in MS paint with the text ‘Worst day of my life’?”
That's not JC's M.O.
If he does that, he’ll never get another Duck football player, let alone Kelly to do his show again, and that’s not good for his ratings. Trust me, he’s going to ask a ton of softball questions, nothing too difficult, lure Lache into his “this is just me talking to you” and then POW give him one zinger, like “have you stopped letting Lyles mentor you yet?” in that no matter how Lache answers JC will be able to spin it.
Then he’ll spend the last hour of his show, the next 2000 words of his Oregonian article spinning Lache’s answer into some, Kelly doesn’t know what’s going on with his players, or Oregon obviously is shady, blah blah blah.
Looking for substance from a Canzano piece is like searching for vegetables is a pile of shit. Sure you might find a kernel in there, but it’s so covered in feces it’s absolutely worthless.

Why wouldn’t they have the story about college football players doing dumb things and getting into a brawl and getting in trouble?

No, I don’t think that’s strange. (Seriously.)
At the moment, nobody has been charged, and it’s all speculation. If I recall correctly*, ESPN didn’t do much with the Masoli frat house incident after the accusal, but rather waited until after charges were filed. This is how they should behave, IMO.
Take a page from Chip — wait until you have all the facts. Or at least, something resembling the facts.

If anyone needs me, I'll be breathing into a paper bag while rocking back and forth in the closet.
This could be huge, it could completely devastate Chip Kelly and his coaching staff. For months they’ve taught their players to tackle LSU running backs, pressure their QB, and cover their receivers down field. If Jefferson is suspended you can just throw all that out the window.
Yeah, I agree...
and the whole thing about, “We are screwed. Big advantage for LSU if Jefferson doesn’t play’”
I love him for sticking with the program and taking his lumps, but there is a reason Jarrett Lee is the back-up at the moment; he may throw a better ball and is more accurate when he is not throwing really bad passes than JJ (hopefully JJ can do better with that), but he does not scramble nearly as well as JJ either. Again, he does have experience and I’m glad we have Lee, but our best shot is with JJ who despite his numbers, played well from the second half of the Bama game on last year.

Moseley also
notes that someone else has been brought on, so one of the original 105 is not longer on the team.
My parents believed in me.
Interesting to note...
LSU and Oregon are each considered favorites to make a run at the national title. Both are favorites to win their leagues. Both are ranked in many preseason top-fives. In shot, these are supposed to be two powerful teams.
Strangely, on Ted Miller and and Chris Low’s College Football blogs on ESPN, neither team has very many players ranked in the preseason top 25 for each league. Oregon come in with two ranked players – David Paulson at 23 and Cliff Harris at 9 – and LSU has a wee count of one – Morris Claiborne at 15.
I’m not saying that teams need players to make the top-25 countdown to win and play well; but I do think it’s weird that both teams have such a lack of representation so far. I think Oregon will come on strong in the top 7, and I’m sure that LSU will have a player or two in the top 7. Regardless, one would think that 2 of the nation’s top ranked teams would have more players on the list.
It probably says a lot about the coaching, past recruiting cycles, and team effort of both teams.
The Pac list isn't done yet
The Michael will be on the list. DT deserves to be.

I know, I wrote that I think Oregon will come on strong in the top 7 (which are still unknown).
All league blogs are at the 7th best players. And other top teams like Wisconsin, Alabama, Oklahoma, and FSU have players scattered throughout the list.
I didn't know their cycles were synced.
Luck, LMJ and DT are pretty much locked in for one, two and three. After that? I’d bet fusky RB Chris Polk (though now he’s going to miss a bit following surgery) will be on there. Maybe someone from the Utes or ’loes.

Another update from the Twitterverse:
From Rob Moseley: Another position switch: Nick Musgrove from DE to TE. Perhaps a response to the Curtis White injury yesterday?
Interesting switch there, as I though both Lyerla and French were slated to be TE. I hope White’s injury isn’t so serious that he’s done for the year again.

Crazy how thin we've gotten at TE.
I was a fan of sending either French or Lyerla to defense. Um, not so much anymore. Also happy we have a solid TE commit for next year. Let’s hope he sticks around.
Hey, maybe Mathis wants to play TE…?
At 5’9", I’m sure Chipper could find a way to make him all league.
No kidding. It’s amazing how quickly a strength of our team becomes a question mark.
Though with Paulson and Lyerla, I’m not worried. Paulson is great, and Lyerla is going to be a freaking stud.

I'm really excited about Lyerla.
The only guy I’m looking forward to more – and it’s still a maybe – is DAT. Those two will be awesome, and will allow for French to ease into a more rigorous football role.
But yeah, what the hell happened to this position? I get the feeling that White will never pan out. I hate to say it, and I certainly don’t want it, but I played football with guys like him. They simply never saw the field. It sucks.

I need a team with Ducks involved.
I don’t think I can bring myself to cheer for Cam Newton.

So, that make Tampa Bay the best choice in my book. I think they could be pretty good this year, too.
The only thing the Niners have going for them is there are four Ducks on the roster.
Though it remains to be seen whether Masoli and Rowe make the roster. Adam Snyder and Tukuafu seem to be in good shape.

Lame. Would you give up on the Ducks if they sucked for a long period?

Its not the Mariners per se
I’m an old man with three kids. I don’t have time to watch 162 games per year. At three and a half hours a pop. Especially for awful basball. And I’m the kind of fan that to maintain interest, I have to watch every game, or damn near.
Of course I wouldn’t bail on the Ducks if they sucked for a long period. But 12 Saturdays a year is a much easier commitment than 162 evenings.

Old man?
Go watch John Stewart’s interview with Ann Hathaway from last night, then get back to me. To put this in perspective: My dad was 35 when I was born. I’m the oldest. I’m going to say that your oldest wasn’t born much after you were 30, if not beforehand.

The fault of the sport isn't really the sport. It's the people in the sport.
Baseball, especially MLB, is a bad product, in my opinion.
It is too slow. Slower than soccer. It’s becoming slower than golf.
You will undoubtedly disagree. You love it. But when I compare it to when I was a kid to what it is today… It isn’t the same.

Not all games are slow. The NL's games are usually quick.
The AL (the AL East especially, which is the most heavily covered division in the ball) has the ridiculously long and slow-paced games.
And yes, the Yankees-Sox 9 inning games that last 3 hours and 45 minutes are absolutely ridiculous. And I’m going to stop now before I go on an anti-AL rant.

Not all long games are boring.
Phillies at the Nats tonite for example. How often do you see a ninth inning like that?
That wasn’t a blown save, it was positively nuked.

It would be great if York got on and said, “Lache didn’t want to come on because you’re a giant douche. Later” And then just hung up.

an lsu fight article
Several people who claim to have witnessed the incident tell 9NEWS that a young man driving a truck blew his horn to get a group of people blocking the driveway to move. That’s when they say a group of people pulled the driver out of the truck and began beating him. When a friend of the driver, a Marine who had just returned from training, ran to assist the driver, he was also beaten and thrown to the ground. Five people who claim to have witnessed the incident say LSU quarterback Jordan Jefferson then kicked the Marine in the head. Baton Rouge Police would not say if they have heard similar accounts. They say investigators are still interviewing witnesses and have not yet filed any written notes.
Now that's smarts right there.

If this is true (and I hope it’s not), that is truly messed up. I really don’t care if our players do the random college kids screwing up crap. When they start to think themselves better than others, and beating the shit out of innocent people, well, that’s a line that should never be crossed.

Speaking of boner pills...
I worked on a commercial for Extenze (yes, the one with coach Jimmie Johnson).
The founder of Extenze was there producing (the dude is ABSOLUTELY LOADED). Someone asked him a question about how the pills work. He laughed and said, “Who knows? I’m not in the medical business. I’m in the money making business. I don’t care what it does for you.”
God bless America.
