Quack Fix: Kelly releases depth chart, Oregon must get physical

3 days until Oregon-LSU. Who else is going a bit stir-crazy? Here's some quack to calm the nerves, or maybe cause a little panic, depending on what suits you.

After the jump, video of Chip Kelly's first press conference of the season, as well as a video preview of the offensive line.

One thing I found interesting from the Solid Verbal podcast was when Moseley said that he thinks DAT will be getting 15 touches a game, that kinda surprised me since we have both LaMike & Kenjon ahead of him but maybe he was also including special teams?

How so? Well, if your Twitter feed included people watching the Ducks practice this preseason, what you got was “De’Anthony Thomas just did this,” “De’Anthony Thomas just did that” and “I can’t believe what De’Anthony Thomas just did” over and over again.

Small by comparison to a Malamute

Huskies are right about 50 pounds.

Malamutes are much larger about 80-85 pounds.

Obviously there can be anomalies. I have two Samoyeds. They’re brothers. One is 55 and the other is 78 pounds. 78 pounds is too big for the breed and his poor hips are showing it.

I have a 40+ lb Pembroke Welsh Corgi, so I can relate.

The "Beano Cook" of ATQ.

by benzduck on Aug 31, 2011 1:41 PM PDT up reply actions  

There are a lot of fat Corgis around.

For some reason Corgis don’t have the mental thing that says “only eat when you’re hungry.” Give a Corgi 100 lbs of food and he will eat until he can’t eat any more, barf that up, probably eat it again. He will stop to rest and drink, but he won’t stop eating until he’s just tired.

So the only way to keep a PWC at a healthy weight is to enforce fairly strict portion control.

My dog is big boned for a Corgi. He’s not a butterball, although he could stand to hit the treadmill on occasion (takes after me). But I’ve seen some pathetic Corgis, fitting the standard at the withers, that have obviously been allowed to eat as much as they want whenever they want. It’s sad.

I had a corgi mix

that was half Australian Cattle Dog. She was a great dog – the ACD half of her lengthed her legs a bit and helped control the tendency to stoutness that corgis have. But she looked otherwise just like a corgi, with ACD blue merle coloring. She was a very very cool dog.

Since Line play seems to be the crux of the situation

LSU lost their most experienced OLineman to surgery recently. Given Lee’s immobility and their reliance on the run game, plus our D scheme, this could be a big factor. More so than the overall lack of experience.

Lyles also says Terrence Mitchel will be one of the best DB’s in the country after this year is done.

by ppilot on Aug 31, 2011 8:04 AM PDT reply actions  

Money Quote
LSU hired Lyles as a JuCo scout for California and Kansas despite being a Texas expert. Lyles said he never really worked with JuCo talent, never scouted Kansas or California, and that his main expertise continues to be Texas recruiting. Lyles said he was hired as a scout as a way to get paid by the Tigers for his recruiting services.

Lyles was told that he was hired as a JuCo scout for California and Kansas because the Tigers couldn’t purchase more than one recruiting service from the same state (we’ll take a wild guess and pick Texas as the state in question), so if LSU was using Lyles, it’d be in violation of that particular NCAA rule. The Tigers would thus be able to have more than one access point to Texas recruiting services if Lyles was listed as a JuCo scout for California and Kansas.

I do not understand why Matt Hinton has such a hard-on for Stanford

I think #2 is pretty damn high (by about 5-7 spots). He is very selective with his criteria as well, case in point: Oregon loses 3 O-lineman, but Stanford returns 2! 6 on one hand, half dozen on another.

Am I the only one who thinks David Shaw has the toughest coaching job in the country this year? Anything more than one loss, is a failed season for him. I think he is going to be handcuffed by a mentality of “do not fuck this up” and lose one, two or maybe even three games this season. Anyone think I’m being stupid?

by SeattleDucks on Aug 31, 2011 8:37 AM PDT reply actions  

Don’t forget — the Stanford fan base is very, very forgiving. Some might even say apathetic.

So long as Luck doesn’t throw a pass that goes wild and knocks over someone’s glass of Chablis, Shaw is probably fine.

mildly interesting read from NOLA this morning

About the UO tempo

In the SEC everybody huddles. When you get to this tempo it’s ‘Oh my God, another play.’
“There was an explosiveness at the line of scrimmage where several of the Auburn players made some great plays,” LSU Coach Les Miles said. “They were deployed at a position to make great plays. There are some similarities between our defense and theirs when looking at the game. Their front four really made enough negative plays and made it sticky to run inside. It changed the course of the game in some regard.”

I’m not sure whether to mock the attempt to ‘practice’ against the Ducks tempo, or to panic.

Harper had potential at WR imo

…if he killed it as a WR I mean. And there’s no reason to think he wouldn’t have based on the limited time we saw him. He certainly has the ability to put up some YAC.

Also, to be completely clear, I hold no ill-will toward him or anyone else who has transferred due to playing time / family / or any other reason really. I’m just saying that, with Harper, I think he had a shot at becoming a really good WR and making it to the next level.

Just watched the Arizona game from 09 on ESPNClassic, here's some random thoughts

1) Is there any coach in the country other then Chip Kelly that would run the ball with a minute left down by a TD on 3rd & 11?

2) Kash doesn’t matchup well with Juron Criner. He got him on a TD in this game & I think he burnt Kash in last years game too. In the 09 game he just jumped over Kash in the endzone

3) Play of the game is the hold by Nate Costa on the extra point from the TD that ties it up

4) Still hilarious that the Arizona fans thought the game was over & started jumping onto the field, made that win even more satisfying.

A lot, actually. You’d think they’d be passing, so if you can get a draw play into the second level, the DB’s are all back-pedaling and have to shift weight and change direction.

So good, I might make it a fanpost.

“You can see what it’s all about. Chip said it better than I can say it. The guys that are willing to compete: those are the guys who are going to be successful around here. When they throw you in the middle of something, are you going to step up, or are you going to back down?

All of us are here because, at one point, we loved to compete. The guys who are successful around here are the ones who love that —they love to measure themselves against other people. Just give them a chance and they’re going to rise to the occasion. They’re not afraid of anything, they’re not afraid of failing, they just want to go and excel.

Throw yourself in the pit enough times that you fail a few times. Pretty soon, you’re not afraid of it anymore. Then you can just go hunt."

That's cool...

I didn’t me the “so” to sound snarky. I was just wondering since, as you point out, few would agree with you on Lady in the Water.I’m indifferent towards The Village. Again, great story (something he’s really good at), but he’s not a very good director…and too often for my liking he has to add that extra little bit at the end that removes all mystery from his movies. Unbreakable is a great, great movie, though.

Didn't take it snarky, so you're good

He does a great job with camera angles to create suspense where there really isn’t any. And yes, Unbreakable is phenomenal, as is the Sixth Sense! With the Happening, I feel like he ran out of ideas and was trying too hard to recreate the excitement of his early works. And I have no idea what he was thinking by taking TLA. He isn’t meant to direct “kids” movies. He doesn’t have that skill set, IMO.

Yes,

He’s really good at evoking suspense where there seems to be none. Signs is the best example of this. I think his biggest failure with The Happening was trying to man an R-rated, violent B horror movie…when he probably should have just tried to make it like his other movies. The violence did nothing in terms of horror for that movie. I thought he was trying a little too hard to regain some of his cred with his pandering to older horror audiences (by making his film an R-rated horror movie).

by kolson82 on Aug 31, 2011 12:48 PM PDT up reply actions  

Agreed

He’s not really a horror director, he’s a suspense director (even the sixth sense was tame horror), and by making it R rated, he seemed to be begging for it to be labeled as a horror for adults. If he just let it be what it was and cut the movie short at 45 minutes, maybe it’s an ok movie. The last 45 minutes were just crap thrown in to make it feature length.

That movie proves two things:

M. Night Shyamalan is a terrible writer (good idea man — sometimes — but terrible writer) and Marky Mark and Zooey Desch…whatever her name is cannot emote fear or uncertainty. Whalberg’s high-pitched whining almost seemed like some kind of Dada-esque joke on the audience. It was insufferable, and I cannot believe that Dirk Diggler could be that bad without it being somewhat intentional…a rib for having to do such a terrible script.

I thought it was fairly clever as far as rom-coms go; I also like Joseph Gordon Levitt quite a bit. I think he’s going to be one of the better actors to emerge out of this glut of young performers who are, for the most part, uninteresting.

If you haven’t seen it, The Lookout is a great, underrated movie.

David FIncher is great

He’s made two stone-cold masterpieces in the last 5 years: Zodiac and The Social Network. Although, the latter is definitely aided by Aaron Sorkin’s script and Trent Reznor’s musical score. But he’s a great director.

Also, David Gordon Green started off with serious movies that took place in the rural south, and now he does movies like Pineapple Express and Your Highness (both of those I loved!) and directs a lot of episodes of Eastbound and Down (which might be the best thing on TV right now).

It completely depends. If Martin dies before finishing Game of Thrones, I’d give the slight nod to Wheel of Time, since Jordan got more done before he shuffled off the mortal coil.

But if Martin can actually finish the series, it’s Game of Thrones.

Honestly, I’ve enjoyed Game of Thrones much more than I did Wheel of Time, although GoT is starting to enter that “you better get the plot moving forward or this is going to get old real quick” phase. The last book was a whole lot of not much going on until the end.

I was one of the crowd who expected LGB would leave town the minute Chip suspended him. Why would he stick around? It was obvious he was just an emotional punk who was only at Oregon for the football. We didn’t need him and, I assumed, he didn’t need us.

If the football program and the family it evolves into for players is the best support system for a young man dealing with demons or fighting his way through adversity, we need to be there. That’s the promise CK and Co. make to the players and their families each and every time they walk into a living room in Fullerton, Rancho Cucamonga, Olympia, Hillsboro, etc.
