I'm not going to respond to you any further on this matter. I've admitted to being wrong many times on this board, and have owned up to it.Cataholic wrote:I realize that you are never wrong and also pretty connected as the president of the VA Fan Club, but I thought you stated earlier that it was 90% that VA would start. I checked your earlier July 6 post and you said Lockie adds nothing and they needed VA's big arm. Do you think that maybe this graduation snafu might have had a negative impact on him starting??? Oh wait, that was just an unfounded rumor... You are never wrong... Certainly didn't blast other BN members for only stating the actual facts. Of course, us other BN members are just old ladies here to play bridge as you stated...PapaG wrote:Lockie will start the EWU game, as I see it.JDoub wrote:"Eastern Washington QB transfer Vernon Adams will join Oregon on August 13, three days into fall practice. Ducks head coach Mark Helfrich noted Jeff Lockie will take first team quarterback reps "until proven otherwise."

If VA can show he's as dynamic as he was in FCS in the four weeks before the Michigan State game, he'll at the very least be in the MSU game quickly if Lockie stalls the offense.
Lockie is exceptional at nothing, but very good at most things. Plus, he knows the offense backward and forward, but that's just on film, playbook, and without any significant game action.

Re: Vernon Adams Jr. did not graduate
The last time you responded to this "matter", you called BN members a bunch of old ladies playing bridge. I am playing in a bridge tournament this weekend, but I am offended by the old lady comment.
By the way, there was never an apology or an admission you were wrong. If there was, I definitely missed it. When you come and tell people they are idiots because you simply know more (with no actual evidence), it makes BN a real hard place to come. When somebody, I think we should all call that person out. Me included.

Re: Vernon Adams Jr. did not graduate
I just heard that Helfrich is not happy that Adams wasn't available for summer drills. They were under the impression that he'd be able to work during the 20-hour period, as well as with his teammates.
He'll be 3 days late for camp, and doesn't really seem to be following the Oregon plan, which is to deliver what is the expectation. Adams apparently hasn't reached out to teammates, other than a small group of receivers.
I'll retract my 90% prediction and say that Lockie starts at least the first two games, with Adams taking a lot of snaps in the EWU game, and relieving Lockie if he struggles against MSU.
Lockie is still not an elite talent, and Oregon won't make the playoffs with him at QB.
Does everyone feel better know?

I just posted that Adams is not meeting expectations, according to a person I trust. So yes, I'm joining the bridge club, because he's going to graduate, but not when UO expected. I was wrong.

Re: Vernon Adams Jr. did not graduate
I'm offended that these offenses offend you. If only there were a way to realize that you were actually wearing panties, and they are all bunched up. Of course that is offensive and I'm offended that You my be offended. Oh yea, I forgot even if he called someone out on it, it wasn't you, I think I'm offended by that , but I'm not sure.Cataholic wrote:The last time you responded to this "matter", you called BN members a bunch of old ladies playing bridge.

Water under the bridge. I am already singing Kumbyyah. I am sure that I spelled that wrong, but you get the picture.
As for VA, I hope he tears it up and shows the country that the FCS level has talent. Lots of good football in FCS. He put a scare into Washington last year and has earned a chance.

Adams takes his third crack at passing his final math class on Thursday afternoon. That is correct, he has failed it twice.

It's Math 104, wear flip flops to the final in case you need to count above 10. You know what I mean Vern?RationalGriz wrote:Adams takes his third crack at passing his final math class on Thursday afternoon. That is correct, he has failed it twice.

Maybe he can get a math placement waiver from the community college here in Eugene...RationalGriz wrote:Adams takes his third crack at passing his final math class on Thursday afternoon. That is correct, he has failed it twice.

Re: Vernon Adams Jr. did not graduate
I don't know what 104 offers. There are so many now it's confusing. I know Math 010 here is fractions and decimals, though.BigBruceBaker wrote:What do they study in Math 104?

So they're going to announce the results of Vernon Adams' math test live on SportsCenter. You have got to be kidding me.
