2024 Oregon Pro Day Recap

By Gavin K Carpenter

The Ducks showed up and showed out in front of scouts from 30 of 32 NFL teams at the 2024 Oregon Ducks Pro Day in Eugene. Graduating seniors and player who had declared for the draft had the opportunity to run both measurable drills such as the vertical jump, bench press, and 40 yard dash, as well as skill position drills for each player.

Bo Nix performed well at Pro Day, with the Heisman finalist only throwing two out-of-range passes on more than 40 passing attempts throughout his passing drills; scouts also got to see Nix’s strong deep ball accuracy, something that was not tested as much during the combine. Bucky Irving participated in the vertical jump again, and was able to raise his performance by two inches from the combine. 

The Pro Day also allowed for players who were not invited to the combine  to show off in front of NFL scouts. Casey Rogers had a vertical jump of 35 inches and a broad jump of…

Oregon BSB Recap: Pilots topple Ducks in the first of their two matchups this season.

Written by: Ben Schoenfield

On Tuesday the Oregon Ducks baseball team took on the Portland Pilots at PK Park. The Ducks were coming off of a 4-1 road trip to Arizona, where they went 2-0 versus Grand Canyon and 2-1 against Arizona State.

The Portland Pilots are coming back to Oregon from a 2-2 road trip to Nebraska where they went 1-2 against Creighton and won their one game against Omaha.

On the first pitch of the game Brady Bean homered to deep left off of a pitch from Turner Spoljaric. Spoljaric would give up one more hit in the inning but got out the inning on 12 pitches, with the home run being the only run.

In the bottom half of the inning Justin Cassella had his second lead-off home run of the past week. He hit it just over the center field wall to tie up the game. Anson Aroz would hit a double and advanced to third on a fielding error, followed by a sacrifice fly by Jeffrey Heard that scored Aroz. The Portland Pilots pitcher Morgan…

PAC-12 TOURNAMENT MBB PREVIEW

By Blaise Winston

March is upon us, and it is every college basketball fan's favorite time of the year. It is time to dive into the final PAC-12 basketball tournament, where our team must win, as it appears that only two, maybe three teams, from the conference will secure an invitation to the greatest sporting event in the land. Below you will find the matchups for the first round of the PAC-12 tournament, starting on Wednesday, March 13, in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the T-Mobile Arena.  This year it is a guaranteed win-or-go-home scenario for the 5-12 seeds. So in a few hours, the duels will begin, and teams will strive to stay alive. Winners will move on to the quarters to play bye-rested top-four teams, where there will be significant possibilities for surprising outcomes. A momentum-building run by one of the lower seeds coupled with end of the regular season losses by each of the nationally ranked PAC-12 teams are signs that there will be confounding, frustrating,…
