Oregon Men's Basketball had one of the craziest run at the end of the season to qualify for the NCAAs, although they did have the Pac-12 tournament to help them, which volleyball doesn't. Wonder if Oregon can find the same disney magic.

The season is over. I still think Ulmer is the right coach. I think injuries and just going young really hurt the Ducks this season. Lets face it, Ronika and Willow are the only 2 upperclassman on the starting roaster, most of the rest are freshman. Even Nunevillar was a rookie at OH and took her some time to get better at swinging at the Pa12 level.
All that said, basically we had a ball control problem. And when you rely on freshman passing and freshman setting, it can bite you in the ass, esp with the pressure of a go-fast offense. I love me a fast offense, but when you have so much youth on the team, I think you build towards a fast offense and just work on the fundamentals of the college game and college speed. You go fast when appropriate on a 3 pass, but when you have the pressure of also trying to make your passs fast, then it can be problematic.
I do think the Ducks have the right girls and this years experience will only help them, but they need to work on ball control in the off-season, and Ulmer needs to rethink the speed game.

Looking at next year, assuming no transfers, how does the lineup shake out?
OH: Borup, Nuneviller
MB: Hansen, Bacon
L: Murphy
Setting will be some combo of Robinson and Ferreira, who is at OPP?
It will be good to have another DS recruit coming in!

Has a team with this level of talent, even considering the injuries, ever lost this much? A wacky season. If the Ducks were tournament eligible, I still wouldn't want to meet them.

Has Borup ever had a full season injury free?

It will be good to have another DS recruit coming in! Morgan Lewis at OPP, great blocker and very heavy arm. She will benefit a lot from being in the regular rotation. Taylor Williams will have another year of experience, her ceiling is really high. |

They get UCLA and USC who are also banged up............tomorrow Unless we have entered a time warp, UCLA vs Oregon is on Friday, not tomorrow. |

Well really Oregon has a lot to be excited about with this group of freshman.
After a few years of adjustments and experiences, they could be ready for the top half of the Pac-12 when they are seniors.
They might be pretty close to even making the NCAA tournament that year if they really work hard and improve. It's a long shot, but they are really going to have to work for it to get better.

Whew, I wouldn't touch those comments with a ten-foot Dane. As a former Oregonian who went to UO, plus was at Mac Court for the "Lukes Show" (Ridnour and Jackson), I feel that I can address the state of Oregon sports with veracity. As far as WVB, I feel that the players ('musicians') could be there: perhaps a better 'conductor' is needed! |

Is Morgan Lewis still on the team? She haven’t seen any PT since the Stanford game on Nov 3. That is a long time to not see PT on a team with such a lousy record. Shouldn’t she be in more to prep for the future?
