How was it announced? Seems weird that it would be... it might make sense for having a more mobile qb in that UW wasn't necessarily expecting. But there's no surprise element if you announce it early in the week...
I believe it is rumor right now, but various media types are tweeting about it. Doubt anything official will be said. That's not how they do things. I'm sure the team will prepare for both. That's what you do.

Good to read the mambas in da house he built. I'm working and trying to scratch out a living. Always home. Boys Weekend rocked the town. Phone numbers the same. Beavers are a dumpster fire. I feel like it's 1978 still. I'm voting for Trump. Lifes good. Call or text me.

Oh my, so I wasn't able to watch the Washington/Stanford game Friday, so I'm watching it now, and I must say, UW is absolutely controlling both lines of scrimmage. What has happened to Stanford's O-line?

No kidding. I thought Stanford was going to win, but I put down that if UW could somehow stop Christian, I'm not sure if Stanford as a Plan B. Turns out, they don't.

Kudos to you UW, you are the only hope of a Pac team getting into the Playoffs so if you fuck up now, you'll have an entire conference out for you.

If only that were the case. I think the reality is we'll have the whole conference after us to make us fuck up.

Also, did you change your name? You're formerly Lucas, right?

Yeah - I want to see the Pac in the playoffs, so you are our only hope.

And yes, I wanted a change so I changed from Lucas.

So, oregon guys, what's your thoughts on going with the freshman? I know we've been talking about it seems like a good move to put him in since prukop sucks, but do you like the timing?

On a serious note and on the thread where it belongs...

Big kudos to @WhiteMamba Mamba for popping in here before this game. Would be easy to just avoid it considering where things are. Win or lose showing up here at all is awesome. And I wouldn't expect anything less.

:suds:

Why not. Word is, Prukop didn't click W/ the guys and they love Herbiota. He has the it factor. We need to remember he is being protected by 4 Freshman o lineman. Oh, and also this time last year, he was preparing for the purple clad S. Eugene Axemen, not the purple clad fifth ranked team in the nation.

Wouldn't miss it for the world.

What if I told you, I am a cynical Oregonian who kind of is enjoying this? 30/30 with Mamba.

I remember that last year I think and after that championship game loss. You do handle these things far better than I do. I already told my wife it might be best if she and our youngest not be home during that game lol. You know, just in case. :whistle:

This is known. I am far bigger asshole in victory than defeat.

Yeah, makes sense to get him in, from what I've seen, prukop clearly isn't the guy. But at the same time, he won the job. Seemed like you were bound to end up with the freshman at some point, but at that point it would be development mode. I suppose maybe he progressed, and they really think he's the guy who gives you the best chance. Or its a desperation move. Maybe a mix of all of those.

Either way, it's a hell of a game to put a freshman out for his first start.

2 things. First. This is what our fanbase is calling the Helf Mary play. Second, Prukop has been solid. Not great, not bad, but he has done enough to win football games. This season's woes comes down to coaching. Our what would be good senior class is disabled by Chip mailing it in for final year of recruiting. The players aren't there in the upper classes. The ones that are there have not been developed well enough. I am a Helf guy. I love the man. But he is a coordinator who is in over his head. I am the last to defend him because like I said, I love the guy. Unfortunately, the data is in. It is on him.

The reason this is odd timing is this is all in for Helfrich. If they lose and the kid has any kind of shaky game he is going to get blasted to kingdom come for setting him up to fail and not putting in the seasoned guy who might weather the storm of our defense better than a young inexperienced guy.

This smacks of desperation unless he really just thinks this kid is so ready and is that last piece that allows them to be competitive in this game and looking at film of both teams I just can't see him coming to that conclusion.

I'm sure all duck fans would be for putting him out there and letting him take his lumps AFTER this game.
