Ducklore

I’m not sure how to quote an internet source properly, the quote below comes from GODUCKS.com. If this is the precedent, Dennis Dixon, welcome to the spotlight. Maybe Dennis Dixon will show up on billboards around the country next fall. I was very pleased to see that the Ducks won’t try to put a Leaf against Cal.

“Not since 1999 have the Ducks had to go to the bullpen in relief of a battered quarterback, although there was a distinct difference six years ago. On Nov. 6 of that year, a sophomore signal caller came off the bench to earn his first career start vs. Washington State in place of his predecessor whose productivity had diminished due to an assortment of ailments. Not only did the replacement thrive in a 52-10 win over the Cougars, a star was born. Joey Harrington completed 15 of 24 passes for 239 yards and two touchdowns in his debut as a starter over A.J. Feeley, which marked the first of 28 consecutive opening assignments.”
