Quack Fix: The Ducks defense is progressing

Links:

• On Thursday, reporter Andrew Greif caught up with linebacker Joe Walker. Walker noted that freshman cornerback Ugo Amadi is stepping up during the summer workouts. The middle linebacker has also gained some weight this off-season and changed his hair color.  
• Pharaoh Brown is questionable to return this football season, but his road to recovery hasn't stopped him from picking up a new hobby. Earlier this week Brown posted on his Instagram account a video of him wake boarding. The video should give Duck fans hope that Brown is making a promising recovery.
• Oregon is known for their fast pace offense, but ESPN projects the Ducks to have the second best defense in the conference. The defensive line will return two of three starters and the linebackers are expected to be in a good position heading into the 2015 campaign.
  
• The Webfoot Awards announced the winner for Best Coach for the 2014/15 year. Robert Johnson won the award, just like he won three national championships for the Ducks last year.

There is a planet similar to Earth that is 1400 light years away. By the time we got there, Washington still wouldn’t have beaten Oregon.

This guy @CJ12_ ripped my Ducks hearts out in the Natty, but I love his style of play and I especially love the heat he brings on Twitter
