he will do so. He's been buried on the depth chart and wants to preserve his senior season of eligibility for a transfer. There is still an outside chance the NCAA will finally approve that 5th year of eligibility for all NCAA athletes. So, he might have 2 years left to collect NIL. Unlikely good enough to go to NFL; maybe CFL

He was on track to be an NFL corner before his injury. As usual, I think you are out of your depth talking about the Ducks. That post where you make a big deal about red zone conversion to disparage a team that is 6th nationally in opponent PPG takes the cake..

he's played in 3 of 7 games, barely. Whether or not he was an NFL prospect before his injury is irrelevant. He's certainly not headed to the NFL next season

as for the red zone conversion rate for the Ducks, the reason the red zone is a thing is because it matters, a lot. And it has been a weakness on the Duck team

and by the way, gfys....I've been talking about the Ducks since I went to the UofO in 1969

fuck off

He started at CB as a true sophomore on a team that went 12-2. Fuck off yourself. As well, he likely has two years left regardless of what the NCAA decides about giving a 5th year. He likely qualifies for a medical redshirt which would restore a season of eligibility and this season he can still use a traditional redshirt.

I thought better of the 'fuck off', removed it, but can bring it back if you want

I know he started several games in 2023. That's not a good indicator of NFL talent. I don't believe he was headed toward being drafted. But he was only a sophomore so who knows.

Regardless of that, whether it was the injury or he just got passed by more talented DB's or a combo of both those reasons, he wasn't getting much playing time this season. Of the non-seniors, Brandon Finney, Aaron Flowers, Ify Obidegwu, Sione Laulea, and Na'eem Offord are all ahead of him in the secondary, and Peyton Woodyard, Daylen Austen, and Kingston Lopa are at least even. Additionally, Trey McNutt & Dorian Brew are injured true freshman, but have gotten a lot of buzz. Ducks also have 5-star Jett Washington at safety in the recruiting class (ranked 18th in the nation of all recruits) and 4-star corner Davon Benjamin (51st overall).

so then, it's a crowded room and a room getting more talented. He will have at least one year of eligibilty left and probably 2 years, as you point out. He would be, at best, 2nd unit at Oregon next season, quite possibly 3rd unit at CB. And that's assuming the Duck don't at a DB or 2 in the portal, which they have done every season under Lanning. So he'll be looking for a destination where he'd have a good chance to start and showcase his ability. That's the reality of NIL and the transfer portal

those are all obvious conclusions. Not sure why you got so offended by them

by the way, if I'm "out of my depth" talking about the Duck D's red zone conversion rate, I'm wading in the same depth that Lanning is because he's talking about it too:

Can Oregon fix red zone defense against Iowa?

The No. 9 Ducks have allowed scores on all 13 opponent red zone trips this season, a vulnerability they've targeted during their second bye week before facing No. 20 Iowa.
www.oregonlive.com www.oregonlive.com

I wasn't "disparaging" the defense; I was pointing at the one big flaw.

Look at Indiana. They reached the red zone 4 times and scored 24 points. The Duck D gave up a 75% TD rate, which is actually slightly better than their average. As the article mentioned, Oregon's TD rate is 76.92%. That ranks 133rd out of 136 teams. Speaking of Indiana, they have a great defense too. Oregon actually ranks 4th in total defense; Indiana ranks 7th. But what is Indiana's red zone TD rate? Well, it's 15.38%, which is best in FBS. Both Oregon and Indiana have defended 13 red zone penetrations by the opponents. Oregon opponents have scored all 13 times while scoring 10 TD's. Indiana opponents have scored on 10 of 13 times, with only 2 TD's

if Oregon had the 4th best red zone defense matching their total defense, their opponent scoring rate would be 64.7% and the TD rate would be 37.5%. Adjust the 4 Indiana red zone penetrations to those rate and instead of scoring 24 points, the Hoosiers would have scored 13....Ducks win 20-19! (and yeah, Oregon is 6th in scoring defense while Indiana is 3rd)

obviously, game realities rarely exactly track trends this closely, but it does demonstrate that Oregon does have red zone issues
 
there is a lot of smoke and rumors about massive bad news for the Ducks on the injury front. I don't know if they are true but:

Dakorien Moore out for season with torn ACL
Kenyon Sadiq out for the season
Jordan Davison out for at least the game tomorrow, and probably more
Alex Harkey out for at least the game tomorrow, and probably more

worst possible timing facing the 2nd best defense in FBS and a very physical defense as well. But again, I haven't seen any of this confirmed anywhere...just rumors

just saw the moderator of Duck's On3 wrote:

Dakorien may be out for season and it's an ACL injury; still a chance it isn't torn
Sadiq is dinged, not seriously injured, and is questionable
Harkey likely misses tomorrow's game
Davison may play tomorrow but is dinged up
 
Everyone is freaking out about Moore but I’m way more worried about Davison in this weather.

Receiver Dakorien Moore out for Oregon against Iowa

The Ducks will be without their top receiver against Iowa
www.oregonlive.com www.oregonlive.com

So Dakorien is out for the game but not expected to be for the season (guessing it's a sprain). Harkey, Sadiq & Devon Jackson are listed as questionable and Davison fears seem unfounded. Oregon has fared really well with injuries this year and these setbacks still don't measure up to whats usually encountered by a team this late in the year. It's football, injuries suck but this is part of the deal. Btw, light to moderate rain is expected throughout the game with temps in the mid-40s

here's another summation of the availability report...

also, Jordan Davison is not listed on the injury report so maybe some positive news for this game
 
Why did IU do an onside kick there at the end when up 3?
 
Opposing linebackers look amazing against the Ducks because Moore never shows any inclination to tucking it and running
 
Ducks are gashing Iowa in the run game. 137 yards and 7.6 yards per.

Dante's interception in the end zone killed one drive. And, a questionable offensive PI killed another.

the defense has held Iowa to 87 yards total offense. That's excellent but 38 of those yards were on the pass play that set up the TD.

One defensive glitch and two bad plays on offense has made this a lot closer game that it should be

Yeah I put a good chunk of change on Oregon -6 along with Penn St +13.5

I’m feeling okay about the chances so far.
 
Do a couple designed Qb runs. Keeps those linebackers honest and opens up a lot.
 
Jemari Johnson has impressed me. Kind of a throwback with no gloves. Good size, good hands, strong runner
 
Gawd I don't know why I listen to national announcers sometimes... I wish we could get a just crowd noise option. Towards the end of the half with the Ducks last stop where blitzing Bryce & coverage forced the Iowa QB just to eat it, Gary Danielson goes on and on and on about how close they were to breaking one. I did not see it that way at all. The slo-mo replay they came back from commercial only confirmed that a Duck was in perfect coverage able to both threaten the pass and drop the receiver well behind the line to gain, but Danielson turned a blind eye to that to insist on the near miss.

...& then the halftime crew goes on and on and on about how great Indiana's close win against Penn State was program affirming. Why do I gaf???

Gary Danielson is a big original Big 10 honk. Anytime it’s an original team playing he’ll blow hot air up their ass.

I mean to be fair it sounds better than them saying beating Oregon on the road is program affirming, so it takes it off of them.

Because truthfully beating Oregon on the road Is THE program affirming win.
 
They’re doing all kind of gymnastics to try and say that Iowa didn’t lose this fumble
