All's fair in love and...Civil War?

First came the announcement that the Oregon Ducks were getting back into the baseball business .

Following closely on the heels of the Beavers' amazing second straight College World Series Championship title , a cynic might say the Ducks were tired of being left high and dry while the Beavs basked in the national baseball spotlight.

Now, this shocker from The Oregonian's Brian Meehan, who writes that the Ducks offered Beavers skipper Pat Casey the UO head coaching job. Talk about Civil War.

On the one hand, if true, you have to give the Green kudos for hutzpah. On the other hand, it seems so un-Civil. Beavos rest easy, Meehan writes that Casey said no!

What do you think -A poor taste poaching play, or all's fair in love and civil war?

Typical Duck manuever! They are not originators, just copiers! Like they had a chance of landing him...Casey had to know that Beavers would have HATED him and Ducks would have been wary of him. GO BEAVS! Class of '84
