Can’t help but wonder what all this transferring is doing to the teams. Doesn’t seem to allow for any continuity…I guess time will tell. I’m just hoping for OSU to have a breakout season. It seems the school, the fans and the coach deserves it.

We in uncharted waters now, what with the transfer portal and NIL. Players not getting playing time or who feel they aren't getting their share of financial rewards will be gone. How long you figure it will take Ty Thompson to bolt after Bix is named the starter @ Oregon?

John, great piece. I've never been inside the Beaver Stadium, just by it. My Law School classmate's father was a Chem Prof at OSU. Also, inside the Locker Rooms,

you are deprived of outward roars and stomps. It is like a confessional filled with bad jokes, heartache, dirty sweate, and college chick rants. In and of itself, a post-game college locker room is a terrific medium for story telling. drjimxlaw64@gail.com

Make that 9. Don’t forget, Rising is a Texas transfer and Nolan transferred from- somewhere.

DTR, Lewis and McKee are the only 3 starting QBs in the league brought in and developed by their teams as freshmen out of high school. Let that sink in further as the chase for blue chip HS QB’s continues.
