Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

Sucks to see players quit. Flowers could’ve picked that off and he stood doing nothing playing lazy.

Honestly, there are now questions with Lanning. Is this seriously a halftime score, TWO YEARS IN A ROW???

Second 35-7/8 in the first half of an elimination game

Not sure we should completely turn on Lanning but fans and donors need to put some heat on him for this.

Are we really calling to move on from Moore?

Maybe step away from the keyboard for a few y’all.

These beat downs aren’t fun but the meltdowns the board has had this year are otherworldly.

This is a young, young, young team and a QB that needed his confidence rebuilt after a terrible year at UCLA. We are still learning and growing as a program.

The sun will come up tomorrow. I promise.

Go Ducks!

Moore is rattled to the maximum. He cannot handle pressure and does really dumb stuff even here at the end of the season. So what to do in the second half? It is already an embarrassing blowout. I feel like barfing.

Lanning the motivator!

Mendoza won the Heisman, even if the award is flawed, Mendoza is one of the top 5 players overall in CFB. Can't rely a HS evaluation once a guy has game experience in college. Not everybody develops at exactly the same rate.

100 percent. Phil and donors don't have unlimited funds. Dan Lanning's fault is he preaches standards and processes, but he's not willing to hold EVERYONE. Some guys are protected. Will Stein, Dante Moore, etc.

Mendoza was a 2* and just pretty good at Cal, but Indiana has made him into a real star. That’s what elite coaching does.

Or Mendoza has 14 more career starts, which may make some difference.

Bring in the walk on.

Are you agreeing with me? Not sure what your point is. As I said, he was just ok before Indiana.

Fair enough. I still don’t think it’s fair to turn on Moore for this.

I'm done with Moore. Kid chokes every single time.

Hey, not everyone can do this job, it is what it is. But he has yet to show us he can perform at the highest level.

Was dakorien moore in the game? They should find ways to use him more in space like how miami used their star freshman, toney. Wonder why kenyon sadiq wasnt targeted more.
