They beat two #5 teams in the country. And they are not done! That game against Mich this am was something else! Dana Altman will make a solid NBA coach someday. He seems to always get his guys up for big games and they get better as the year goes on. Look for my Ducks to be contending for a final four birth!
he's 61 years old and has been a NCAA head coach for 30 years....I really doubt he has any interest in the NBA
...did I miss the other #5 team they beat? He's lucky to still be the Ducks coach after the scandals and suspect culture he's fostered there. A long way to go before the final four is here, but I suppose it's always good to have hopes and dreams alive still this early in the season (unlike the football team).
the Ducks have played #13 Memphis, #13 Seton Hall, #8 Gonzaga, #6 North Carolina, and # 5 Michigan. They are only 5 points away from being 10-0. I have no clue what you were talking about with the football team. As far as the "culture", I think it's fine.
Right, still trying to figure out how they beat two #5 teams in the country as the OP mentioned The football team lost the very first game of the season virtually guaranteeing another missed CFP (aka final four) -- shattering all hopes and dreams for the fanbase.
I dont think they were, but I think thats what he was trying to say. I think North Carolina was but Oregon lost to them.
Sure, I think its great that college basketball the good teams actually play each regularly though or even big schools. Kind of a topic change but the Ducks have played a lot of really talented teams already, in football not so much.
You have no idea what you are talking about. The suspect culture is the kangaroo court system on college campuses that continually make a mockery of sexual assaults by passing the buck from the justice system to the schools, thus not only creating more cases of males being falsely convicted(such as what happened at UO) due to much lower evidentiary standards and lack of due process rights for the accused that the school operates under but also to actual predators being allowed to remain on the streets because a note on the transcript and an expelling will simply not prevent a predator from raping elsewhere such as a criminal court conviction would.
pound sand with that noise....I don't think any Duck fan was really expecting a season ending with a playoff appearance for the Ducks before the Auburn game. Just expecting Oregon to win the Pac-12 was an optimistic expectation. The Auburn loss was a tough pill, but the junk about "all hopes and dreams" is your fantasy, and sounds a lot like a bitter-beevur fantasy
Golden State beat Portland who won...? It was a great game, that went to overtime. I think they looked pretty even head to head too.
