the Duck board is way more fun when the Ducks suck?
Pretty boring and quiet here these days. I would have expected more gloating.
It's not that fun gloating when UW is so fucking bad. Besides, the Husky fans here trash their teams and the coaches better than most any of us could do.
This.
I’ll add that I sat through some Don James era ass-pushings, and if you had told me then what I know now, I would have said you were full of shit.
Same if you had told me in 2004 on eDuck that a good handful of us would be congregating on a Husky site. So there’s that.
Speaking of ramen and educk, does anyone remember when Oregon was in some intense h2h recruiting battles with Miami (over jacory Harris and some wrs), and some Miami fans spam attacked educk with ramen noodle gifs and hardcore porn gifs? Cheswick and Marty were freaking the fuck out. Great times
I don't remember, but I wish I did. Especially cheesedick freaking out. And hardcore ramen porn.
Freaking out was Cheswick’s only speed. And that fucking green italic font.

Unfortunately I do remember the green italic font. His comments were painful enough to read as they were.

It wasn't me. I swear!
That was the infamous 2008 Miami class that was ranked way up there. They got most of that ridiculous class from Miami Northwestern, almost all of whom were disappointments. I never thought much of Harris, Tommy Streeter was physically gifted but didn't produce, Marcus Forston was a nobody D lineman by Miami standards. The best one was the least celebrated ... Sean Spence, who was a good linebacker if not undersized. He was having a nice career with the Steelers as a starter, which surprised the fuck out of me, until he really blew up his knee.
That class had so much pub and was such a bust. I think there was also some POS huge lineman who didn't do anything either. Miami Northwestern produces talent like Starbucks produces coffee, but that class and all its hype was twash.
I think Oregon had piqued the interest of Harris and I think Streeter, who eventually said "no thanks." That said, at the time it was a YUGE thing that Oregon could get a Miami kid's attention. The only guy from the Pac who could come into So Fla and steal a kid from Miami, FSU, FL, LSU, etc. back in those days was Pete and the SC name. Washington never even bothered, and from what I gather they still kinda don't. I thought it was good on Oregon for being that bold. You gotta start somewhere and they weren't afraid to try, which I respeck.
Today it's all national and Oregon's name is much more established now than it was then. Also, kids today fly so often that no part of the US is really "too far from home" anymore. That used to be a real thing and doesn't seem to be as big a factor now.
I had a friend that went to Miami and was a big fan. He was hyped about all those guys. You are right. They were all mostly shit except for Allen Bailey, Spence, and Travis Benjamin.
Randy Shannon was a Ty level coach. One of the worst head coaches I’ve seen. He still gets jobs somehow. One of the years you played FSU in the opener. You ended up winning a shoot out. I swear Miami played base D the entire game. Didn’t blitz, just bland 4-3 defense with soft man coverage.
