Fall camp is complete, and we have only 8 more days until football! Of course, with camp ending and Chip Kelly making a decision on the QB situation by tomorrow morning, that's all anyone could talk about.
- Rob Moseley's story is on the QBs. The coaching staff immediately started reviewing the tape of yesterday's scrimmage, which was the only scrimmage during fall camp. The decision on the QB's won't be made until sometime today. From all account Thomas and Costa had good showings yesterday (here are the complete stats from GoDucks.com). It seems like Thomas did a bit more on less opportunities, but that also means that Costa got more snaps. Also affecting performance, however, is that many of Oregon's stars did not play. LaMichael James, Kenjon Barner, Brandon Bair, Casey Matthews, and many others did not play. On the plus side, no significant injuries happened during fall camp.
- One of the few writers that had access to the scrimmage was Andy McNamara of that athletic department, and here is his report. All QBs led three touchdown drives, which is a good sign, though Costa was the lone QB to turn the ball over.
- Ken Goe has a story on the scrimmage as well. He has some quotes from coaches and players, and notes that Cliff Harris had an interception during the scrimmage, helping make his case for the other CB spot. And watch out Matt Daddy, it looks like Dale from the Duck Stops Here may give you a run for your money in CH13 love.
- Have you not had enough expansion talk yet? If you hadn't heard, former UCLA chancellor Chuck Young came out against expansion. Well, TwistNHook over at CalGoldenBlogs was so annoyed that he wrote an opus on just how wrong Young is.
After the jump, we have some video interviews of Chip Kelly, Darron Thomas, and Nate Costa, so make sure to check them out, and leave any other news in the comments. GO DUCKS!
