Quack Fix: The Texas Pipeline, Rashaan Vaughn, Oregon Cheerleaders, and Duck Soccer

in Morning Quack Fix
Email
PrintFootball makes its return tonight with Murray State taking on Louiville on ESPNU at 6pm ET. For those of us without the additional cable channels, we'll have to wait an extra hour, hit up the web and take in the wonder of a great basketball rivalry when Villanova takes on Temple. 3-4 weeks from now, most people aren't watching these games but I've had to deal with baseball for months. I'll take anything football related at this point.
A couple of reminders before today's quack fix. For those that are new to Addicted to Quack, we will be having a live game thread on Saturday where you can participate with other members of the ATQ family in cheering on Oregon to (hopefully) a big win! Please count on joining us Saturday to participate in the fun. At times like this, it's important to take a moment and remind yourself of the ATQ Code of Conduct. Emotions can run high throughout the game and that can translate into crossing the line towards your fellow community members. Many people read the site including guests from other blogs, parents, former and current players and your words and actions can be seen through all those groups. This is just a reminder to think before your write and remember to follow the ATQ Code of Conduct at all times.
On with the quack!
- Many people are picking Oregon to win the conference title this year but what you may not know is that there are only 3 programs in the history of the Pac-10 that have won the conference title 3 years in a row. USC is the obvious choice to be in that conversation but how many of you thought of Washington? Before that, you have to go back to the 50's with UCLA in the Pac-8. Lots of good stuff in this article from Friend of the Blog Ken Goe.
- Here's a pre-season preview for Oregon that cites JUCO transfer Wide Receiver Rashaan Vaughn as the break-out player for the 2011 season. Another preview starts to talk about the upcoming season but then in typical ATQ fashion, veers off towards the cheerleaders. I'm still a fairly young man but when do we start becoming "creepy old guy with a blog posting pictures of college girls"?
- The entire state of Oregon has benefited from the Texas Recruiting Pipeline over the last decade and just like when Oregon State traveled to Cowboy Stadium to take on TCU last year, this year's Oregon-LSU match-up gives players an opportunity to head home.
- In recruiting news, Alex Balducci (go rams!) opens up about his commitment to Oregon and discusses what he's been told about his role as a Duck. Not that this should surprise anyone but Coach Az told him that they will look to mold him into a defensive tackle/nose guard role. Look for a video with an interview with Alex.
- Galen Rupp is in the news as he advanced to the 5000m finals at the IAAF World Championships.
- Remember when the Oregon Volleyball Team was unranked to start the season? Well, all they did was upset Penn State and low and behold, they're up to number 16 in the country. The Ducks move to 4-1 on the season and notched their third sweep in the last two days taking out the American Eagles 3-0.
- Michael Kruse asks...how does Oregon Football keep winning? Interesting take and perspective.
- Hopes aren't just high for the football team. Oregon Soccer is looking at 3 straight shutouts to start the 2011 season and are aiming towards making the playoffs for the first time ever. There is a long way to go but this is a great turnaround for where the program has been. This weekend will mark a big test as the Oregon Nike Tournament kicks off from Pape Field.
That's it for the quack. Enjoy your day and Go Ducks!

Here’s Ted Miller’s pick for the game(finally figured out how to open it up in a new window for those that wanted me to do that) the SEC guys are picking LSU as well.
Also I think the loss of Kash as a return man is being overrated, I was reading a preview on the sidelineview & Lance Zierlein said we can’t replace him at CB or returner. Correct me if I’m wrong but Kash was the backup to Kenjon at returner until Kenjon got hurt.
Yeah, Kenjon was the starter at returner. Kash got some returns (like in the NM game), but Kenjon was the main returner until his injury.

Looks like Bruce Feldman is with CBS now, speaking of CBS can someone do me a favor? Everytime I try to read something at cbssports it says error does it do that for anyone else here?
I think it’s just google chrome that’s doing it, I just went in through internet explorer & was able to read stuff.
Wonder why 2 people over at CBSsports are picking San Jose State over Stanford & they aren’t using the spread.
Terrible terrible pick.
I know Stanford is new to this whole “being a decent team” thing, but that is awful. Did they pick Kent St. over Alabama, too?
That's OK.
Auburn’s going to be awful, especially in the beginning of the year. Plus, I think everybody agrees that Auburn deserves to lose.
Hearing a rumor
that Josh Huff may still not be ready to go on Saturday. You would have to think that his absence would really hurt UO’s ability to stretch the field.
where you hear that?
...GO DOUG...
by Your Favorite Team's Favorite Team on Sep 1, 2011 8:41 AM PDT up reply actions
Forgive (and correct) me if I am crossing blog rules fellow DTers,
Matt Prehm was reporting from his close source that Huff really struggled through practice yesterday, and the coaches were really concerned that he wouldn’t be ready for Saturday and possibly longer.
Well, that would suck
I have to say, I don’t feel as good as I’d like to going into this game.
Yeah, but not as much as you'd think
Per CK interview during the Spring Game, WR is the easiest position to roll noobs into (i.e. you just have to tell them what routes to run and only call those plays when that receiver is in). While we may not throw to the unproven ones as much as Tuinei, LSU still has to cover the noobs. So, we may not have tremendous yardage in space if we’re not getting the receivers to block (which is more important than catching the ball). Even with Huff, I don’t think anyone sees us putting up 40+ on LSU.
If Huff is unable to play Saturday, we can mitigate his absence with runnin Barner and DAT out of the TZR to make up for not having a proven receiver with hands. We may hold off on the triple tailback formation (or run it with DAT behind DT). While it’s not ideal, don’t wave a white flag just yet.

Aside from the O-line, the WR position is the one I’m most worried about in terms of hurting us on Saturday. I guess you can tack TE onto that as well. I’m not worried about Tuinei or Paulson, but if Huff can’t go, our depth looks pretty poor. Out depth chart is full of talent, but it’s very raw talent. I feel like we’ll either have veterans who can block but won’t be all that effective in the passing game, or we’ll have young burners in there who might not have developed as much as we’d like from a blocking standpoint.
I like the WR corps going forward, but it would be nice to have both Tuinei and Huff available as guys with experience for our first game.

I still think Huff will at least try and give it a go
We’ll see what happens.
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
IF Huff can't play
CK will have Barner or DAT in the slot, so we won’t be down a receiver. We run before passing, anyway. I’m excited to see our O-line do well. We’ll be fine. Trust me. 8-]

I think Hoffman’s going to be solid, especially in the running game, but I’m tempering my expectations until I actually see him do something. I would hate to think MAEHL 2.0!!!!! when that’s probably not realistic.

You want him to just be an average possession receiver?

I’m certainly not expecting him to be our best receiver, but he may end up being enough of a reliable target to keep defenses honest. And after watching several replays of last season’s games this week on CSNW, I can already tell you that he’s a decent blocker with decent size.
by echo31 on Sep 1, 2011 10:27 AM PDT up reply actions 1 recs
I’m not getting my hopes up for Hoffman. It’s rare for a skill position player to transform from a complete non-contributor into a dependable guy. Last year, reps at receiver were there for the taking and he didn’t close the deal.
Have to trust the coaches.
But I have to say I won’t be surprised to see Vaughn in the rotation early and often. Of all our new receivers, including redshirts, he has game experience at a level above high school and he has speed and decent size.

No idea.
But I thought most of the WPA funds went towards destroying fertile valleys with dams.
The "Beano Cook" of ATQ.
I took an Oregon History class back in my time at LCC
It pointed out a lot of local WPA projects that didn’t serve a ton of purpose other than to give an artist a job. Damned if I can remember any of them except for the stone shelter on top of Cape Perpetua (where I also happened to get married). Ostensibly that one was a ‘lookout for Japanese submarines’, but I’m pretty sure Yachats wasn’t a major strategic target of the Axis back then.

I had to laugh when one of them said that Paysinger is better then Matthews, I don’t think any Duck fan thinks that. I know it’s a rivalry & I’m on the Eagles side but I also get the view of a Ducks fan in it. It’s going to suck though not being able to root for Paysinger since he’s a Giant
Matthews was undoubtedly the best linebacker
but Paysinger is a stud too. Both teams win, IMO.

I think Paysinger was severely underrated by many Duck fans. Not as of a physically tough as a LB, but probably better mental/awareness.

Apparently he is up to 241, which puts him right in line with NFL LB weights
Count me in as one of those people who underrated Spencer at Oregon and and in the the NFL
Better in college doesn't always mean better in the NFL
I mean, AJ Feeley is still in the league in Harrington is long gone.
That's because AJ had more training and experience in carrying a clipboard than Joey.

He’s also only played in 23 games. Harrington started 66 games and was competed for starting time most of his career – and generally out performed the other QBs on the team until he landed in a team with Drew Brees and Mark Brunell.

Most amazing stat for me for this weekend is this is only the 10th time Oregon has played the SEC (4-5 all time).
"Good evening Blazer fans, wherever you may be!"-Bill Schonely
Esp. considering this is the 5th game vs. the SEC in the past 10 years
2 vs. MS State, at TN, vs. Auburn now vs. LSU.

Just finished listening to the Solid Verbal preview of Oregon-LSU.
I REALLY want to win this game now, as that LSU guy was such a stereotypical SEC homer. (quotes are approximate)
“I went down the rosters of both of these teams, and Oregon just won’t be able to handle the size and speed of LSU.” – I haven’t heard that before……….
“LSU will win 34-17, and it will stay that close because Chip Kelly is such an offensive genius.” – 34 points!?!? This is LSU right?
I shouldn’t let that type of stuff bother me, but I would love to have something to point to when arguments like the first quote above are raised.

It’s not really the right season for The Abyss.

I like Upright’s beers a lot, haven’t had the Five, so it’s a bit of a wild card.

Ninkasi.
I’ve decided the best way to support the home team is to support the home town, and since Ninkasi brews are (a) great and (2) readily available in Salem, they will be the Designated Home Brews this season.
The "Beano Cook" of ATQ.
Unfortunately, the BevMo down here isn’t selling Ninkasi’s summer seasonal individually, but I picked up a four-pack that included it: Total Domination, Radiant, Nuptiale Cream, and Maiden the Shade.
I’m thinking I’ll go with Radiant in the first half and then go Total Domination in the second. What do you think?

I think IPAs are cooling off. I hope they are anyway. The last two years, they were just popping out like crazy.
Pilsners are more difficult to make in small batches, so you don’t see too many people trying to make them.
A few months ago, I had a huge hankering for a good new amber ale – never found one, but Cream Ales kind of did it for me.

I’d end with Total Domination. But then I like to have my high % beers late in the game. Otherwise I’m likely to pass out by halftime.

I could probably handle it up front, but I like to ease into it as well. So that’s what I’ll do – Radiant and then Total Domination.

My big complaint about Ninkasi is their lack of willingness to try different styles
I’ll have a Sleigh’r or Spring Reign, but other than that I’ve gotten bored with their options. That’s why I am big Oakshire Brewing fan, as their single batch brews are fantastic.
I don't agree...
They make many styles, but they aren’t very widely distributed. Many of their options are only available at their tasting room.

Well I check Bailey's, Belmont Station, and Bottles taplists fairly often and I very rarely see anything
Their goal is to complete with Widmer in terms of total output so they’ve had some consistentcy issues with some of their beer while increased production so fast.
I haven’t heard that their goal is to compete with Widmer… they are ages behind for that and so they have a very long ways to go. Especially considering they only have one year-round six-pack…
But like I said, many of their stuff is only available at their own tasting room. They haven’t really hit outside of that too much. They’ll advertise quite a bit when they DO sell something on tap at a new location on twitter/facebook.

I think there was an article about a year back that mentioned Ninkasi's expansion plans
Also I’ve had similar conversations with their distributor, Maletis. Don’t get me wrong. I think Ninkasi is a good brewery, it’s just that I prefer the creativity of Oakshire. They just have different brewing strategies. If you check their twitter feeds Oakshire has at least five different single batch (non-bottled) beers being mentioned as being on tap around the area just in the last week or so.
I’m a huge fan of their Oatis Stout, which seems different from most of their other stuff.

Also their coach is a genius even though he picked the wrong quarterback.
Did you know that the SEC has won the last twenty two championships, three superbowls, and currently holds the Stanley Cup? They also play the toughest schedule in the nation, yet manage to dominate powerhouse programs such as Louisiana-Monroe and Charleston Southern, further cementing their place at the top of college football.

Kickoffs were one of the most exciting parts of watching the NFL.
Especially considering that fewer points are typically scored in the NFL.
Self anointed President of the Kenjon Barner fan club.
It’s also a huge killer for onside kick. If you need two onside kicks, you’re giving the other team an automatic 3 points if you don’t recover – not to mention needing an extra 10 yards to make a comeback.
It's spelled "S-H-U-F-E-L-T-I-M-P-A-T-I-E-N-T".

I do not follow.
You kick from 10 yards further away from your own end zone. That’s less distance to cover if you recover, more for your opponent to cover if they do.
The only way this is worse for onside kicks is that it’s reasonable to bring more people forward in the hands team, because not returning it if it’s not onside is less of an issue.

http://www.duckstopshere.com/2011-articles/august/week-one-prediction-oregon-versus-lsu.html
On Saturday night, Duck fans will witness the unveiling of Oregon Spread Offense Version 3.0. They’ve prepared six hard months to be a better and more explosive team. Remember Michigan in The Big House? The Ducks will take on another myth of size, reputation, history and invincibility. They are going to explode in Dallas. They will be dazzling and dynamic, and the great talents of a loaded backfield will work their magic. Be prepared for a season that will stun you. The promise of 2007 will be the reality of 2011. These Ducks are ready to fulfill a destiny, and be a team for the ages.

ESPN's Scouts' Edge is hilarious
Oregon is more explosive on offense but is in a major rebuilding mode defensively, and the absence of Harris on both defense and special teams will hurt this team more than the absences of Jefferson and Shepard for the Tigers. Look for Lee to play within himself and throw the ball efficiently against an inexperienced Ducks defense. We also think LSU’s run game will prove to be overwhelming for the Ducks in the second half. Several big plays on offense for Oregon will keep this game tight for four quarters, but LSU’s physical style will prevail.
Ami I being too much of a homer, or is that just a ludicrous reason for LSU winning the game? Harris isn’t even our best Punt Returner, and our defense isn’t THAT inexperienced.

Lee often plays and even starts over Jefferson on occasion. I think that Harris will be much more missed than many Oregon fans seem to believe. Oregon is all about explosion plays and Cliff is our most explosive player on D.
Don't need "explosion plays" on defense to win.
Lee is historically an inaccurate statue. Simply getting good coverage and getting some pressure on him should be enough to make him a non-factor. I’m not saying Cliff won’t be missed, but the fact that the rest of the secondary returns with experience, including starting experience, other than Mitchell alleviates this concern.
Ducks GOOOOD. Fuskies BAAAAAD.

DAT recorder
Some of you film majors may recognize this archaic instrument. DeAnthony Thomas will break some records. Get it? I believe that his importance to the Ducks this year is being underscored by the staff for good reason. Teams wont know what hit them. Go Ducks!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, my recs come cheaply early in the season. But I must second benzduck here.
It is obligatory.
Oregon loves you, Chip Kelly!
