Page 2B SPORTS East Oregonian Friday, August 12, 2016 College Football Yost expects starting QB to declare himself obvious “They’re both competing and ighting for the spot. Whoever takes it, takes it. And it’s up to us to make them look good.” Oregon quarterbacks coach developed stars at Missouri By RYAN THORBURN The Register-Guard EUGENE — Is Oregon’s quar- terback competition really as tight as the coaches and combatants say it is? During last year’s fall camp there was also talk of a battle between late-arriving Vernon Adams Jr. and spring game star Jeff Lockie. That proved to be a lot of hot air after the Ducks emerged from their closed-door practices and played actual games. With a healthy Adams, Oregon beat Stanford and USC during a six-game winning streak and built a 31-0 lead against TCU. When the Eastern Washington transfer was injured, the team suffered painful home losses to Utah and Wash- ington State and squandered the Alamo Bowl in spectacular fashion. David Yost, Oregon’s new quarterbacks coach, admits to overseeing faux camp competitions in the past as Missouri’s offensive coordinator. “Sometimes it’s stated that it’s a competition, but there’s a guy Prukop — Darren Carrington, Oregon wide receiver on the team’s ongoing quarterback competition between redshirt freshman Travis Jonsen and graduate transfer Dakota Prukop. coming out of the previous season that you fully expect is going to be the guy. I’ve been through a few of these,” Yost said. “When I was at Missouri we had a quarterback competition between Blaine Gabbert and, I can’t even remember the guys he was competing against, so it wasn’t much of a competition. “It was more of, when does Blaine just kind of take control and become the guy? It happened pretty quick.” Dakota Prukop and Travis Jonsen are in more of a prolonged duel for control of Oregon’s offense, according to Yost. “It’s very competitive,” Yost said. “They’re both getting about equal reps in practice. How we rep things, I think Dakota gets a couple more with the ones every day, and that’s purely how we rep our periods, it’s not the fact that he’s more of a one than Travis is. “It’s split right now, and we kind of evaluate them on a daily basis.” Prukop, a Montana State grad- uate transfer, has the advantage in game experience after passing for 3,025 yards and 28 touchdowns and rushing for 797 yards and 11 touch- downs for the Bobcats in 2015. Jonsen, a redshirt freshman, has been through two springs at Oregon and certainly looks the part at 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds. The Ducks’ skill players have tried to stay as neutral as Switzer- land. “I think we’re at a good place right now,” said Darren Carrington, who had instant chemistry with Adams and inished with 609 receiving yards and six touchdowns in only seven games last season. “They’re both competing and ighting for the spot. Whoever takes it, takes it. “And it’s up to us to make them look good.” First-year offensive coordinator Matt Lubick and Yost aren’t asking Jonsen Prukop or Jonsen to be the next Marcus Mariota or to ad-lib the way Adams did so brilliantly. There is a long list of receivers, running backs and tight ends on the roster who are capable of demoral- izing opposing defenses when they get their hands on the ball. “It’s a little bit more of being the distributor, run the show, make sure the boat is steady in the water,” Yost said. “I always joke, it’s kind of like my golf game: Keep it in bounds. If you keep it in bounds, we’re just getting closer and closer to the end zone every play. That’s what our role is right now because we’ve got a lot of skill guys we’ve just got to get the ball to.” Yost brings an impressive history of developing quarterbacks to fourth-year Oregon coach Mark Helfrich’s reconigured staff. His irst star pupil at Missouri, Brad Smith, became the irst quar- terback in FBS history to throw for 8,000 yards and rush for 4,000 yards in a career before playing wide receiver in the NFL. Chase Daniel, entering his eighth season in the NFL, passed for 12,515 yards with 101 touchdowns and 41 interceptions for the Tigers. Gabbert, a two-year starter at Missouri, passed for 6,822 yards with 40 touchdowns and eight inter- ceptions before leaving early for the draft. The former irst-round pick is competing with Colin Kaepernick to be Chip Kelly’s starter with the San Francisco 49ers. And Jimmy Costello, the forget- table backup who was allegedly competing with Gabbert before the 2009 season, threw 17 passes in mop-up duty. Nine of them were completed, two were intercepted. It might take another week or two, but Yost is conident the right quarterback will emerge for the 2016 Ducks. “I’ve done this for a long time and there’s a time you get to and it’s like, ‘Yep, that guy is the guy,’ “ Yost said. “I don’t know if it sneaks up on you, but all of a sudden it will be kind of apparent. Normally it becomes apparent to everybody, from the scout team defense guys to the starting defense to the whole offense. “They kind of know, ‘Hey, this is our guy.’” GYMNASTICS: Raisman gets revenge from 2012 all-around heartbreak Continued from 1B contest not so much between Biles and the rest of the ield but between herself and the burden of oversized expectations. Anything less than heading back to her family’s home in Spring, Texas, with a istful of golds would be seen as a disap- pointment. Biles earned the irst one on Tuesday while serving as the excla- mation point to retiring national team coordinator Martha Karolyi’s going away party. While Biles insisted she’s never looked ahead during her long run at the top, that’s not exactly true. A portion of her loor exercise routine — the one that includes her signature tumbling pass — is set to Latin music that would it right at home in the street right outside the Rio Olympic Arena. It’s not a coincidence. The girl adopted by her grand- parents as a toddler and discovered by coach Aimee Boorman’s mother during a ield trip to the gym where Boorman was coaching has become a force. She hasn’t lost an all-around competition since the summer of 2013, a winning streak that should go for as long as Biles wants it to. Though Mustaina took a small lead through two rotations, it was a mirage. Balance beam and loor exercise — where Biles is the defending world champion — lay in wait. She went back in front with a 15.433 on beam — and capped it with a 15.933 on loor. Raisman hugged her gently as they awaited the inal score — a mere formality — and tears appeared around Biles’ glittery red, white and blue eyeliner when the vision she once wrote in a scrapbook became a reality. Raisman’s performance was a bit of revenge from four years ago, when she tied for third but lost the bronze to Mustaina on a tiebreaker. This time, the 22-year-old team captain the Americans call “grandma” was well ahead. She blew kisses to the crowd after her loor exercise, overcome by a comeback that at times seemed in doubt. FARM-CITY: Canadian cowboy Vold takes the night’s top score in bareback Continued from 1B well. “These steers come from Cheyenne (Frontier Days) the other day, and they’re more of a handful than most,” he said of the pen provided by stock contractor Calgary Stampede. “I think this year the times kind of prove it, they’re a little bit better this year. They aren’t quite as big as they’ve had in the past so it makes for a better rodeo.” With more than $198,000 to be won at the FCPR this year, Hermiston could be a great springboard for strong inishes for several cowboys. Another of those is Cana- dian champion bareback rider Jake Vold, who entered the week No. 11 as he tries to secure his second WNFR qualiication. He rode Calgary Stam- pede’s Xplosive Skies — who more than lived up to her name — for 87 points to take the lead. It was just his second time getting on a bronc since a broken rib halted his season. “I took the time off and properly rehabbed every- thing. I’m getting older and wiser,” said the 29-year-old cowboy from Red Deer, Alberta. “Lots of guys that have been healthy all year are starting to wear out.” Xplosive Skies had plenty of spring, though, and burst from the chute with a series joltingly-violent crowhops that pleased the crowd and the judges. “I talked to a couple guys in bronc riding and they said she’s pretty bucky,” Vold said. “She didn’t stall, but didn’t restart and then blew out of there. She kind of caught me a little bit, you know muscle memory’s not quite back. “She bucked and jerked me down, but you just try to keep your chin tucked and Staff photo by Kathy Aney Canadian bareback rider Jake Vold rides to victory Thursday at the Farm-City Pro Rodeo with a score of score of 87 points. keep your hand closed and just get ahold with your feet. She’s deinitely bucky.” Tie-down roper Tyler Prcin of Alvord, Texas was another cowboy in line for a Farm-City boost as he moved into the aggregate lead with 16.7 on two head. He had an 8.1 during slack to take the lead in Round 1, then went for 8.6 seconds to move into second in Round 2. He’s No. 40 in the world standings, but is far from out of it now that he and his new steed have begun to click. “I was going real good and then after Reno (in mid-June) my horse got hurt and I had to send him home,” he said. “I kind of had heck the next couple weeks getting things together but the last couple weeks have been good.” Prcin is now on a mare named Katniss he picked up from Trevor Brazile. “There’s not really a breaking-in period, it’s just iguring out how you ride her,” he said. “I broke a lot of barriers on her at irst.” Jake Pratt of Ellensburg, Washington, took the perfor- mance and the night’s victory lap with an 8.4. He had an 11.0 during slack to put him second in the aggregate with 19.4 on two. Brady Nicholes of Hoyts- ville, Utah, had the night’s top saddle bronc score with an 81 on Calgary Stam- pede’s Tokyo Bubbles. The 83 scored by Tyrell Smith and Sterling Crawley on Wednesday held in the lead. The rest of the events occurred after the East Oregonian’s print deadline, but action resumes in each round today at 2 p.m. with slack and 7:45 p.m. with the rodeo’s third performance. Other event leaders at press time were: team ropers Dustin Bird/Russell Cardoza, 11.2 on two; barrel racer Kimmie Wall, 17.09 second on one; bull rider Kurtis Turner, 81. ——— Contact Matt Entrup at mentrup@eastoregonian. com or (541) 966-0838.
