Quack Fix: Volleyball Road Trip, Walk-Through for Virginia, Recruits for Track

Highlights (from Oregon's official practice reports)

• The team was at Autzen in helmets, jerseys and shorts.
• It was a walk-through day involving recognition and reaction.
• It was noted that Virginia was running fairly vanilla schemes for the BYU game and so some of the schemes and preparation is based on what the coaches have historically done, a common practice against teams with new coaching staffs.
• DeForest Buckner and Arik Armstead practiced taking mock pooch kicks while holding another ball in their hands.

• There's a reason for a 40-second clock damnit!
• Is Virginia a trap game for Oregon? Maybe.

Blurb of the Day

I enjoyed this line from Coach Eric Reveno from the University of Portland.

On good news front, can now give student-athletes any bagel spread we want. Still has to be a bagel, not an english muffin but progress.#HCA
