The Oregon Duck football program got huge news Monday morning when juniors Jordon Scott, Austin Faolium, Thomas Graham, and Deommodore Lenoir announced they would all be returning to Oregon for their senior seasons and put off playing in the NFL for another year.
"That's the best opening statement that you could ask for," said Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal following the players' announcements. "As a coach, very grateful for those guys, their commitment to not only the program, but to their own personal craft, I think when you make a decision like that, that as purpose-driven as their decision is, purpose-driven, in the sense from a personal standpoint, from a team standpoint, from a program standpoint, it speaks very loudly for them as people, them as competitors, them as teammates. We all know how special the University of Oregon is."
DuckTerritory.com's Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil were present for the press conference by the four players and head coach Mario Cristobal. Following the presser they've released a podcast unpacking the day's news and giving their opinions on the topics at hand. Matt and Erik discuss the decision to return, the impact it could have in 2020, Mario Cristobal's update on the OC search, Jaylon Redd, and a lot more.
