When January rolls around our games with the Ducks will be the highlight of the season for many of our players and for many of us fans. With luck we might be back to the good old days and pack Gill with 9,000 screaming fans. Personally, I like having information about the opponent. I want to know about Oregon's roster to better savor the thumping we lay on them. Every coach worth a damn knows you respect your opponent but you do not fear them. So, those of you who provide info on what's going on with the Oregon program, I appreciate it. I don't like Oregon. I want to crush them each and every time we play them. But I have no desire to be ignorant of them, their players, or their roster. So, those of you who help to keep us informed, my thanks to you. GO BEAVS!! Same goes for knowing about Washington, Arizona , USC, Stanford and the like. Arizona is killing it right now. People are really upset right now that the boat is adrift in the ocean in regards to filling positions in the coaching ranks and on the floor. I get that and you are Also right in your thoughts too. Who is upset? Our roster for 21-22 is pretty much set (maybe one more addition if a perfect fit came along) and probably at least 75% of the people have 100% confidence in Rueck making the assistant hires whether its someone like Chatterton or Holsinger that came in with a lot of Pac-12 experience or someone like Campbell or Faulkner that arrived with very little experience.

I'm confident in who SR will hire. I'm sure there will be some debate on the board with comments like "they don't have experience", or "they're not proven recruiters", etc but we can be very sure they are going to be relationship builders, and that's what SR wants. As for roster additions, I really like what the Beavs have done. The bench next season will be deeper overall, and scoring punch from the bench should be strong as well. I also believe the ducks pick ups should help them as well. They have their young talent returning, and the new additions add depth, while giving Graves a shot to play the 5*'s he gained last year.

It appeared things were flattening out last week at 1015 total in the Portal, but it surged again, new additions even yesterday, up to 1035, 557 have found a new school. I was curious when it would stop this year and found this:
Athletes must meet this deadline in order to maintain eligibility. All current athletes who want to use the new transfer rule and be immediately eligible for the 2021-22 academic year will have until July 1, 2021 to notify their current school that they'll be transferring. In future years, that deadline will be May 1.

I predicted a while back the portal would reach 1000, but I'm still somewhat surprised it reached that number. Good to know that next year decisions will need to be made by May 1st.

Off topic - After watching episodes of "The secret of Skinwalker Ranch" on the History Channel, I don't like the term "transfer portal". After all, the team of investigators at Skinwalker Ranch suggest there may be a transfer portal on the ranch, or maybe a worm hole that is allowing objects to appear and disappear. I don't think it is safe to enter a portal.

Wouldn't HosenDove be rape of another fowl by a duck ? [br 28 percent of female college students are sexually assaulted by their senior year so what you brought up is certainly possible.

When Katie F started following Lauren on twitter, I really thought it would be nice to add Lauren to the Beavs roster, knowing we needed guard depth. Little did I know, Katie was already making moves on behalf of Washington. I think Lauren is a great pickup for them. It also says a lot for Tina Langley that two of her players are willling to follow her across country. I know the Pac-12 is super tough, but if I were a Washington fan, I'd be pretty happy with the coaching moves they've made. Trying to land recruits from the state of Washington just got a lot harder.

Graves is creating an even bigger problem for himself than he had this year ! Arizona will be the class of the PAC , We will be a year away ! Graves has a couple of 'negative impact ego's' on that team !

Katie is gonna kick some butt on the recruiting trail. Just wait and see. Katie is the glue that holds all the recruiting together.
