The Oregon 50: The best of Ducks Twitter
www.i-5corridor.com

The I-5 Corridor’s list of the 50 Oregon Twitter accounts worth following deserves a better introduction than this. There should be a little anecdote about Oregon being at the forefront of most trends, and how its fans’ early adoption of the platform has created an eclectic, irrational, creative and sometimes rabid online fanbase. 

I should tease a few people on the list and really get into the deeper meaning of their placements. Get the masses talking. 

But to be honest, the amount of time put into this has been exhausting. Not actually creating the list — I type fast — but from the eight seasons of living in Oregon Twitter, morning, noon and night. 

The Internet is mostly bad and Oregon Twitter is not immune. But some things on the Internet are good. We’re all here, aren’t we? 

So, if we’re all going to be spending so much time online, I figured I could help by curating a list of 50 people whose tweets don’t immediately make me want to throw my phone through the wall. 

These aren’t the 50 best accounts. You’ll notice there are no numbers to rank them. It’s just the recommendations from a guy who has spent way too much time scrolling. 

A few rules: 

1. I didn’t include any current local writers. Oregon media sessions are in person again and I want to ensure my safe travel to and from Eugene. 

2. I tried to avoid current players — with two exceptions. They come and go, but we’re all stuck here forever. 

With that, folks, prepare to dive in and update your résumés. Because if you’re here, you’ve most likely been tagged in a tweet. And truly, the honor is ours.

Let’s begin.

Rob Moseley

Credit where it’s due: You can’t begin a list about Oregon Twitter without including one of the pioneers of Oregon Twitter. Back in the days when reporters could actually watch things, Moseley’s prolific tweeting earned him one of the largest followings in the Oregon Twittersphere.

I wonder how much his Twitter handle, @DuckFootball, is worth. 

Jane Mullens

This empty Twitter account — no tweets, no photos, no profile updates — seems like an odd inclusion. But this is the Twitter account of Jane Mullens, the wife of Oregon athletic director Rob Mullens. And this account provided one of the zaniest moments in Oregon Twitter history when Rob used it to speak in Twitter Spaces during the whole Lettergate fiasco.

Ahmad Rashad

Oregon has produced a lot of famous alumni, but nobody has the pull of the running back once known as Bobby Moore. No one else from Oregon — or anywhere, really — can so casually tweet a photo like this.

JaRomney

I don’t know who JaRomney is. For the eight or so years I’ve followed him, he’s occasionally tweeted out a picture of himself. But for the most part, he’s remained anonymous serving the role as Oregon’s PFT Commenter before it was cool. He’s witty. He’s a presence — 251K tweets — and he’s a shit-stirrer never afraid to change his profile name and wade into Husky Twitter to create chaos. 

Everyone at some point has been roasted by JaRomney — including himself.

I feel like I know him. I never want to meet him.

Geoff Schwartz

A few years ago for The Athletic I put together a hypothetical competition pitting the best Oregon teams in history against each other. I included the 2007 Oregon Ducks and noted players like Dennis Dixon, Jonathan Stewart, Max Unger and Patrick Chung. A player I forgot to mention was Geoff Schwartz, and all he did was earn all-conference honors that year before going on to a nine-year NFL career. 

I will not forget him here. With 140,000 Twitter followers, Schwartz has one of the largest post-playing career platforms of any Oregon Duck. And not many people use a platform like that to highlight offensive line play. I dig it.

Jon Wilner

Wilner’s the most connected media member in the Pac-12 and someone I admire for branching off with his own “Pac-12 Hotline” brand. At the very least, it’s entertaining to watch him spar with Oregon fans, who are often convinced of Wilner’s hatred of green and yellow.

Chantel Jennings

True story: Chantel’s twitter account was once bombarded with crazed Justin Bieber fans because her name is somewhat similar to Chantel Jeffries, the former girlfriend of the pop star. Unfortunately for the Beliebers, Chantel Jennings is just a tremendous women’s basketball reporter, a former Oregonian and one of the best people to follow during March Madness.
