Jason Quick, former Trailblazer beat writer for the Oregonian, was recently reassigned to Oregon football. He talked about the move tonight in an interview by blazersedge.com blogger Brian Goliver, and in the course of their converstation he touches on his relationship with the Oregon coaches, what it’s like covering the Ducks:
Blazersedge: What’s your first impression of the Oregon football program, along those lines? Is it the contrast you expected?
Jason Quick: “[The access] sucks. It sucks. It’s awful. It’s horrid. On the Oregon beat, the kids are awesome. There hasn’t been one guy that I’ve talked to that hasn’t been engaging, well-spoken, polite. Every kid I’ve talked to I’ve been really, really impressed with. The coaches, on the other hand, I can’t say the same. They’re almost trying to be difficult. It’s frustrating. It’s obvious they have no respect for our profession.
