Over the weekend, I found myself looking back at some of the best seasons from Oregon football quarterbacks over the past decade, or so, and I stumbled across a name that, honestly, I had almost forgotten.

In true Darron Thomas fashion, he flew under the radar in my mind, and looking at just how much he meant to this program in its successful seasons under Chip Kelly, he doesn’t get nearly as much praise as he should.
