I was at the game, and these comments are so puzzling to me. Bad on ball D? Ethan had a phenomenal game guarding Pritchard. Reichle played well and had one of his better shooting nights. Not one mention all game for the job Kylor did? Best rebounding performance in a long time for him and didn’t foul when helping on Pritchard’s drives. Tres didn’t have a great game, but he made a huge steal late in the game and got buckets down low down the stretch. Also hit two clutch free throws. Had the bad turnover late and called timeout vs. the press when he had a wide open Reichle over half court, but everything else was good. Great team win in my opinion. Wish we always showed that effort. Goes for fans as well. A full Gill is my favorite sports venue ever. If that is directed at me, ET did have a slow start, getting torched several times by a driving PP. Fortunately he recovered to do a good job on both ends of the court. Tres is our best player of course, but he had 4 turnovers, was 4-13, and 0-4 from 3 and a couple of them weren’t even close. So while he had his “normal” moments, I really don’t think you can say “everything else was good”. He made a lot of curious decisions, un-Tres like in my opinion. But it’s all good! Even so we won, and that’s all that matters! Wasn’t directed solely at you, just the overall tenor of the comments on this thread. It was as if nothing good happened in a ten point win over a ranked Oregon team.

Also, hating on Pritchard makes no sense to me, much like hating on Herbert. Incredibly talented in state kids who stayed home, even if it was for the other guys.
Plenty of things to hate about UO, he’s not one of them.

I will get this incorrect, but,I finat altnanns No. 1 recryuitng classes are not living up to the hype. They may,still, get on a little run - but, I think it is a tough approach for any coach! You don't see team offense or defense as a team. In the first place, Secondarily, these 5 star 'one and done' players are all about racking up the stats. Peyton is the Sabrina of the men's team . A jerk, on and off the court ( Eugene , uo source)! His idea of sharing the ball is when he switches hands in his dribble drive . I heard he is up for National player of the year ( seems like the ducks have one in every sport - hmmmm ? ). Yeah, he has an outstanding play now and then - but he is just a ball hog that shoots every time down the floor, while his teammates stand on the court and watch ! Altman has made a final four, elite 8, and sweet 16 3 of the past four years. How's that underachieving? [b Like him or hate him, he traditionally gets his team playing very well in March

Great win, always great to beat hole. Now, show us something next weekend, like a f%#*ing sweep! Yes, great win, got to watch it late, ups and downs, but they did work hard, and KK and ZR had great games overall, TT did what he had to, but a so-so game, and ET was clutch in the 2nd half. KK was moving well and certainly changed shots in the middle, Great team win...

Has anyone talked about the DJ playing “Shout!” as the Ducks walked off the floor after the game? Fantastic bit of trolling there by OSU game ops.

Am I the only one who is certain the Beavs will come out in their next game (Utah I believe) and lose badly?

Plenty of things to hate about UO, he’s not one of them. While I agree with you on Herbert, just because you're talented or an in state kid doesn't mean you aren't a POS, which is exactly what PP is. I have despised him since he arrived and is not a guy I would want playing for OSU. Not because he isn't good enough, but because he is someone that I just can never ever root for.

[b Like him or hate him, he traditionally gets his team playing very well in March Yes, he can coach and recruit despite his ethics... we swept last year... finished 2 spots/seeds(I believe they entered 6th) ahead in Pac12... and they win the tourney go dancing.

The kid, PP, is a stud. PERIOD. If on OSU we're a team dancing and ucks aren't. Every good/great team needs arrogant, talented POS type. It's why OSU hasn't been good since GP and GPII (he not so much as dad). If WT could recruit a player(s) like PP there would be a lot less posts on this board.

I have a question that is going to sound to some like I'm being a passive aggressive jerk, but I'm honestly curious. I've read multiple times, especially recently in the threads about why Wayne Tinkle is not good enough for Oregon State, that WT can't recruit any good players that aren't coaches' sons. Does this mean that Kylor Kelly is not good, was not recruited by WT, or is the son of a coach? Am I missing something? WT also signed Drew. The problem I have with his recruiting is that after a tourney bid and having some highly ranked talent (the coaches’ kids), he hasn’t been able to parlay that into consistently strong recruiting classes. So while KK was a very nice get, the other 3 players in that class as well as all 3 recruits in 2016 class are now elsewhere. The new reality is that you are likely going to have transfers, but losing whole classes is a problem as is seemingly not being prepared for it. And while “stars” aren’t the be all end all of recruiting, it is worrisome that the Beavs last 2 classes have the 2 lowest average recruit rating of WT’s first 6 classes.

KK is not elite in any way. Shot blocking does make him a great recruit. At one time his blocks/g were higher than his boards. Completely agree with announcers... both KK and ET should be much better. Especially KK... maybe the most athletic, longest big in Pac12 in quite a while. Needs to play, or be given more chances, to play like it.

It's why OSU hasn't been good since GP and GPII (he not so much as dad). If WT could recruit a player(s) like PP there would be a lot less posts on this board. I recall watching Beaver games as a freshman when GeePee was a senior.....it was sort of cringe-worthy...I remember loving that he was on our team, but thinking how much opponents must hate him. He talked more trash than any player I've ever seen in the conference.... maybe there have been some more guys like that or worse, but he was pretty nasty out on the court. Now is there something about PP that I'm not aware of? I mean yeah, he LOOKS douchey, but I can't go just based on that. I saw him taunt the UW students earlier this year, but that's about all I've seen or heard. I agree with earlier posters though that the kid is nails in leading his team come tourney time and big games especially. I wish a certain senior on our team had that knack when games were on the line.
