Another Quick article. This time about Marcus. Amazing...seriously. I had NO idea his class schedule was as challenging as it is. Anyone who took 200-300 level science and math will get it...WOW. http://www.oregonlive.com/ducks/index.ssf/2013/11/how_marcus_mariota_leads_the_o.html
Twitter just lit up with rumors that Mariota has torn his ACL. Rob Moseley is saying the rumors are BS. Some clever drama from bored Stanford students?
Not only was Moseley saying the rumors were BS that Mariota had hurt his knee but he was being a dick to people who were asking him about it. He's got inside access to the team. I can see not saying anything but no need to be jerks to people who had.
I didn't click the OP link as Quick is a dick (thanks Targus for the alert). Let me guess how it went. Few quotes from Mariota or others, lots of overreaching flowery pontifications from JQ regarding his sense of what the player is like, maybe one anecdote that he extrapolates to represent his sainthood? I'm all too familiar with his formulaic dribblings... over the top with dreamy praise when he's writing a positive piece and building his subject up vs over the top negative fantasies when he's tearing them down. How close to the mark am I here? btw, I took upper lever math and science classes in pursuit of my degree at UO and those classses are no joke. I was already aware that Marcus is a serious student. He was a 4.0+ student in HS and I've read many references to him being very focused on his General Science major. STOMP
