Well yea, obviously a coach hyping up his team, that’s not new. You make it seem like their was a talent disparity between a HS and college team. Yes, we are down and they have talent–but then shouldn’t we have been 30 point dogs, not 7?
ORute replied to the topic Outcoached in the forum Football 6 months, 2 weeks ago
That’s a very fair argument. Thanks
ORute replied to the topic Outcoached in the forum Football 6 months, 2 weeks ago
I agree–our culture is our strength–its been one of Whitt’s biggest achievements and overcomes a lot of discrepancies in talent. SC–always has been about flash, ego, prima donnas etc. But its on coaches and coaching to set that culture. That and their DC is clearly no bueno

Seem a tad angry. Having an age old discussion about talent v coaching. Never said anything about love for UO, Nike, propaganda or that they are a better program. Lets try to separate logic from emotion and have a discussion? or not, idc
ORute replied to the topic Outcoached in the forum Football 6 months, 2 weeks ago
If the talent discrepancy on the field is the answer–then what is SC? They’ve got more 5 stars than anyone, consistently underperform, D is a mess, got beat at their place with our backups. Did we get lucky? Maybe their coaching has something to do with it–especially on D
ORute replied to the topic Outcoached in the forum Football 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Whitt himself said they were outcoached–laid all the blame on the coaches. It happens. Maybe a letdown after SC, maybe not. To anyone who watched the entire video, hard to say they didn’t come in better prepared and took advantage
ORute replied to the topic Vaki and our receivers in the forum Football 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Yep, Oregon has a specific signal for when Vaki on the field–according to the commentators. Feel like Oregon was playing one step ahead and we were running the same stuff and expecting it to work the same as Cal and USC.
I also think there becomes a point of deminishing returns playing Vaki on both sides. There is a reason no one plays both…[Read more]

If ASU can hold on and beat UW, for sure Gameday
ORute replied to the topic Rose in the forum Football 6 months, 3 weeks ago
Yea, meant give Rose all the reps. If he’s healthy he needs to play
ORute replied to the topic Rose in the forum Football 6 months, 3 weeks ago
Yea, makes no sense to me either. Basically its saying Ludwig’s offense is so complex that a year and a half in the program isn’t long enough to learn it? Was Rose not allowed to look at the playbook while he was injured? imo, getting Rose up to speed is more important than a ‘gameready’ BB. Rose is the (potential)future, BB is not, get him the…[Read more]

ORute replied to the topic Struggles in the forum Football 7 months ago
Of course injuries–but everyone has them, its part of the game. While much falls on Whit, he also hasn’t been calling a zillion runs up the middle. Its a combination of many things; injuries, better QB1 planning, unexpectly subpar O-Line, PLAY CALLING and to be fair, some good D’s thus far. Just a bad combo of stuff at the same time and we get…[Read more]

Gotta disagree with JJ not being a RB1. Guy averages 6.5 yards/carry as a RB–and thats as a converted QB still learning the position.
ORute replied to the topic Struggles in the forum Football 7 months ago
Im just going to say it, Bernard has been the biggest loss of all. He’s been such a versatile weapon on offense; as a runner, blocker, pass catcher, leader. I dont see our O struggling nearly as much with him–certainly great to have everyone back, but he was the glue guy and just what we’ve been lacking offensively

Not only plan B, but to have your QB1 (Rose) go full contact in practice right before the season. I mean, our D needed to practice by tackling our QB1? This just all seems bizarro
ORute replied to the topic Riley's interview with Cam today. Puts to bed a bunch of rumors. in the forum Football 7 months, 1 week ago
So Cam tore his ACL, MCL, MCSL and meniscus. This is major and frankly any frustration should now shift from ‘why isn’t he back by now’ to ‘he really shouldn’t be even practicing right now’. Forget soon or Kyle or whatever, he needs at least 12 months, anything less and he’s seriously jeopardizing reinjury. I had knee surgery, not this bad, but…[Read more]
