Tyner/O-Line/General Thread

Angry’s still out and the last post was nearing 300 comments, so thought I’d put up a clean new general thread.

Will have a separate thread for the baseball series so that doesn’t get cluttered with off topic conversation.

Something interesting I read from Sedge today was the possibility of Tyner playing for 2 years at Oregon State, as he applies for a medical hardship.  Wouldn’t that be something if he played for Oregon State this year and then grad transferred back to Oregon for his final season?

Also football related, it feels like the glaring hole on offense right now is a starting caliber offensive lineman for the right side.  We currently have 13 guys on the roster, and GA mentioned wanting to bring in one more guy this summer. Seems like grad transfer would be the likely route to make that happen, but who is currently available?

Feel free to talk about whatever you want if football bores you…

Hey Beavlettes, I will be gone (for business, not pleasure, unfortunately) the entire week starting tonight.

Try to behave and all that. OldBeavs and NiceBeav, feel free to make any topic you wish while I’m gone. If the spam protectors blocks anyone, sorry, but I won’t be able to approve you until Saturday morning.

Go Beavs.

Civil War Baseball – series thread

You can bet all those of the toilet seat persuasion and particularly Coach Horton are hoping the weather cooperates. Their only shot at post season is a decent performance.

Horton: The Rich Man’s Mike Riley?
As someone said, it would be nice if uncle phil keeps him around. He’s beatable (despite recent years) and certainly not a threat in the PAC overall. Similar to MR, he comes across as likeable, and inept.
Horton says, “the Beavs are on a mission” in a piece in the GT (link below). Didya know he too, was snubbed? Happened back in ’91 and that team, CalFull, has gone to the post season 25 consecutive times since the snub.

Keys to the series are pretty straightforward; Beavs pitchers need to avoid HBP, WP, and minimize BB. Hitters need to be aggressive vs the good starting arms of the little sisters.

FEHMEL: Important story here; who takes his place and, as significant, what is his role going forward?

Two wins clinches the PAC Crown AND gets #1000 for Casey, warts and all, lol.

General Thread/Recruiting

Since the last recruiting thread, the Ducks got one of the top JC DTs in the Country. The Beavs landed a 3-star 5.5 ranked LB who looks pretty good. The Beavs have 3 commits, and the Ducks 9.

3 isn’t terrible for this time of year, but it shows how impressively the Ducks are killing it. They have more commits than Stanford or USC, even.

It’s interesting to see that today we offered a 4-star Nebraska commit. It would sure be nice to poach from Riley and rub some vinegar in that wound. Ironic, yeah, that “you can’t recruit to Corvallis”, yet we poach from one of the top 5 easiest schools to recruit to? Looking at his offer sheet, I doubt we get him even if Nebraska loses him. Hopefully we can at least poach one NE recruit this year to stick to Riley and his false narrative.
