Fucking lame. The fact you even thought this would go over well leads me to believe that you will not understand why this is stupid. 

Edit: I stand corrected. Good for you OP

Interesting comment RE: Chip Kelly/Oregon from Armstead: "He was honest with me. They never talked bad about any other program. They recruited me without recruiting me" 

Considering Notre Dame was the other finalist, you could make some assumptions based on that statement.

I've been reading this blog since the 2006 season and I will never understand why people get so infuriated by thread titles, what is on topic or off topic, and other little stuff.  Some people here are wound incredibly tight.

If there is a bigger sham in college football than the Oregon Ducks, I'd like to see it.  Oregon was terrible for decades before being subsidized by Nike.  I realize it's not against the rules, but it damn well should be.

They play arguably the most entertaining brand of football in the country, their coach exhibits a Paul Johnson level of "not giving a shit", and they've got one of the loudest stadiums in the country.  I don't see how any of this is bad for college football.

Ive had almost enough of the arguing about the merits of a thread title or people pissing and moaning. This blog use to be very informative, now I learn pretty well everything I need from twitter. Let's get back to talking football and a fuck the constant judgement about if someone titled their thread right. Who cares

I dare anyone to go over to the Rival's board or ESPN's board for a week and then come back and tell me what you think about stupid threads. TomVH should start every day by posting in all caps that Stefon Diggs isn't coming to Michigan. Some how some way Rival's board manges to gather even more stupidity to one site. You may not like the bitching but it is a necessary evil.

No different than how T. Boone Pickens has been helping OSU (NTOSU) for a long time - that alone doesn't put you over the top, and it is dangerous. By many accounts the entire OSU (NTOSU) answers to Pickens...Oregon better never upset Knight.

that will continue the great tradition of underperformance of the last 20 years.  Here's hoping Hoke & Co. get more out of top 10 classes than has been the norm in Ann Arbor for the last decade or so.
