February 13, 2013: University of Oregon Ducks

#23 Oregon Ducks (19-5, 8-3 Pac-12) @ Washington Huskies (13-11, 5-6 Pac-12) Wednesday, February 13, 2013 at 8:00 p.m. PST The Alaska Airlines Arena at Hec Edmunson Pavilion Seattle, Washington The Opponent: Oregon Ducks- Eugene, OR Head Coach: Dana Altman -Oregon surprised many with their early season success, however they have dropped three of their last four -The Ducks defeated UW 81-76 last month in Eugene, in a turnover plagued performance by both squads -Oregon came from behind to win at Utah 73-64 last Saturday Pre-Game Notes: -This game is nationally televised on ESPN2; lets show the nation why Hec Ed is a place no one wants to play! -THIS IS OREGON, BRING IT. PERIOD! -Everyone hates Oregon, they are truly the scum of the Earth, hold nothing back. Anything goes tonight. And now, the Dirt #0 F (FR.) ARIK ARMSTEAD- SACREMENTO, CA Twitter: @arikarmstead -Arik is a standout defensive end for the Ducks, who has elected to put his NFL career in jeopardy by playing basketball. However, it was recently announced he will redshirt this season. -Recently broke up with WSU Kappa Delta sorority co-ed Margo Martin. Damn. *We love the name Margo Martin; it rolls off the tongue and would sound great chanted! #1 G (FR.) DOMINIC ARTIS- OAKLAND, CA Twitter: @TheHumbleDuck Instagram: @dartis -Despite appearing as if he just recently turned 13, Dominic has been at the forefront of the Ducks successes this season. -It is unlikely we will see Dominic play tonight, as he has been out with a foot injury and his return is unlikely tonight. *Advantage: Huskies #4 G (JR.) NICHOLAS LUCENTI- LOS ANGELES Twitter: @NickLu4 -Nicholas, a walk-on, broke his career long scoreless streak with a red-hot shooting display against Idaho State earlier this year. He was unstoppable, scoring 4 points in just 5 minutes of garbage time! -Rumor is the only reason Nicholas has been allowed to stay on the team this year is because of a great family cannoli recipe! *Ayy Nick, how bout two of em cannolis brotha?! #5 G (FR.) FRED RICHARDSON III- HOUSTON, TX Twitter: @FredRichIII Instagram: @F_Rich5 -Fred has found himself a very nice seat on the bench throughout Pac-12 play, however that didnt stop him from apologizing to the entire state of Oregon for their loss to Colorado. -Based on his Twitter feed, Fred has little to no respect for women. And, looking at the following image it appears it doesnt matter the time or the place, Fred will get in your pants. *This is actually really creepy!

#10 G (JR.) JONATHON LLOYD- LAS VEGAS, NV Twitter: @youngloyd24 -Jonathon needs to be encouraged to shoot on every occasion (warm-ups, during the game, if you see him around town), as he is shooting a miserable 30% from the floor and 28% from 3pt range! Oh and 56% from the line. *SHOOT IT! -In the 4th year of a relationship with Alex Guarino, she wears the pants in this relationship based on all available evidence. We actually kind of feel bad for the guy. *Valentines Day is tomorrow, he better not mess that up! -Hes 5 8 *This brings us to a quick digression from the Dirt to discuss something that has been an issue recently: If you hear a chant start, and you are in the Dawg Pack it is your responsibility to chant. This appears to be an issue for some people. Our players get chanted at and heckled at every gym they play in, except USC because that place is a joke, and it is our duty to return the favor. So, instead of being afraid your mom might hear you, join the chant and lets get it together! Okay and back to the Dirt #12 G (JR.) COLTON BAKER- SUTHERLIN, OR -LOL, thats all. Not going to waste paper on this guy. #14 F (SR.) ARSALAN KAZEMI- IRAN Twitter: @arsalankazemi Instagram: @arsalan14

-The fact is this guy is from Iran, and there is something highly intriguing and terrifying about that. Our best advice would be to not look him directly in the eye. *Ahmadinejad is watching! -He speaks Persian. *Use Google, and explore the Persian language, make him feel at home with some taunts from his native tongue. #20 C (JR.) WAVERLY AUSTINFREDRICKSBURG, VA Twitter: @W_Austin20 Instagram: @waverlyaustin -This picture says enough.

#21 G (FR.) DAMYEAN DOTSON- HOUSTON, TX Twitter: @d_dot21 Instagram: @d_dot21 -It is highly possible his parents were under the influence when they spelled his name; it truly is painful to look at *Make sure to refer to him phonetically (dam-yeen) -No, but can someone seriously explain how this possibly could be pronounced Damian? #24 G (FR.) WILLIE MOORE- CINCINNATI, OH Twitter: @w_moore24 -Willie has had a hard time finding his stroke at the NCAA level, as he isnt quite lighting it up from distance (18%). -Reading anything Willie has crafted is serious work; he has no regard for spelling or universally accepted rules of grammar. #25 F (SR.) EJ SINGLER- MEDFORD, OR Twitter: @EJSingler Instagram: @ejsingler -EJ is the younger brother of former Duke standout, and current Detroit Piston, Kyle Singler. His brother is hands down a better player. *He needs to be reminded of this fact throughout the night. -The Dirt enjoys a beautiful romance, and EJ supplies us with that, as he is still dating his high school sweetheart Bryn Dressler!

-HOW?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! *Ugh. #32 F (FR.) BEN CARTER- LAS VEGAS, NV Twitter: @Ben_Carter32 Instagram: @benzoOh -Not sure what it says about a guy that gets routine pedicures, but we know its not good. #33 F (SR.) CARLOS EMORY-BLOOMINGTON, MN Twitter: @ITSCARLOS_EMORY -The Ducks 6th man, can jump out of the gym and is threat to post a SportsCenter top play at any moment. -Admittedly only has a couple friends, but dont worry Carlos has made it clear that it is okay because he likes it that way. *Yeah thats what they all say. #40 C (FR.) AUSTIN KUEMPER- PORTLAND, OR Twitter: @AKuemper Instagram: @akuemper -When it came to choosing a college to attend, Austin chose between Oregon and WSU, which should give you plenty of reason to hate him. *He picked Oregon for its academic rigor we can only hope that he was kidding. #50 C (SR.) TONY WOODS- ROME, GA Twitter: @twoods55 -We wouldnt trust Tony with holding on to anything as he has an amazing 44 turnovers and only 9 assists! *That is awful, just awful. -Transferred from Wake Forest after being arrested for assaulting a female, and was forced to attend anger management classes. Following the release from Wake, it was natural that he progress to Oregon. *Public Enemy #1, feel free to give him a piece of your mind.
