While we can all think he would have thrived in CK's offense, we will never know. CK and the coaching staff saw something that threw up a red flag. While it sucks...Oregon is looking good at qb right now. DT for 2 years..BB and then Mariota(sp). They will get a qb next year and all will be well.

Oregon is "looking good" with only 3 QBs? Has it been that long since we were down to our 5th string QB? We need more than 3 QBs on our roster.

[Boom]

We have 5

Darron Thomas
Bryan Bennett
Daryle Hawkins
Marcus Mariotta
Dustin Hanes (walk on, but I would take him over Chris Harper any day)

I sure as h*ll wouldn't want Haines in there with the game on the line. Plus, I doubt Hawkins will be anything more than an emergency back-up since Chip seems to want to use his athletic ability elsewhere.

I agree, but how many schools have a 4th & 5th sting QB that's going to win them games? If you get that far down on the depth chart your SOL regardless



btw I highly doubt Randall could step in as a true freshman and outperform Hawkins.

If we have to worry about our 5th string quarterback next season then we have a lot of problems. When that happened a few years in a row, that was incredibly unlucky.

Sounds like Marshal is offering him the starting job if he goes there. If I where him I would take that in a heartbeat, he is one kid that needs to get out of Miami for school.

Marshall is usually a bowl-eligible team every year so it would be a good opportunity for him.

In general if you lose your 2 deep for the season you are screwed. Having a Masoli at #5 was just an incredible piece of luck.

If you have to go to your #3 for just a short time, like #1 and #2 get dinged or concussed in a game and you need to go to an emergency QB to finish up and maybe play the next game your best emergency QBs will be ones that are strong option runners. It''s much easier and safer, when you throw in a kid who doesn't have any meaningful reps, to have him run option and zone read than passing the ball.

Hawkins would be a great emergency QB in that he can throw a little and run a lot. Josh Huff and Devon Blackmon could both be prepped in short order to run a zone read/option run package if you needed a backup to Hawkins for the next game.

If faced with a clean-up game I would hope they would put in a runner rather than burn Mariotti's redshirt to play a quarter or two.

I remember in '93 just going to our backup we where screwed, I think UO finished 3-8 that year. Having 3 QB's who are capable is a luxury not the norm.

Oregon has some incredible athletes who could play a little QB if the situation ever called for them to do it. Let's hope we never use those two at QB unless they are running some Wildcat-type formation.

[Handsome Dan]

I'm kind of confused. Are you trying to suggest that Oregon has great athletes other than Huff and Blackmon who could play as quarterback?

I was including those two as among those that could play QB if Oregon was in dire straits due to injury or Chip wanted to run some sort of specially-designed Wildcat package.

[Handsome Dan]

Got it. That's what I thought, but the tone kept jumping out to me as you saying they'd be like the 8th or 9th option rather than 5th or 6th.

So I guess he is going to LSU?
Even though local Miami looked into him as well as GT
