The Traffic Report: Building the Oregon 25

The I-5 Corridor

On this week’s episode of The I-5 Corridor’s Traffic Report, I needed a little help from Justin Myers.

See, it’s 2025, which means there’s a lot of “Best 25 [insert noun] of the first 25 years of the century” lists going around. Notably, over at The Athletic they’ve put together lists of the top 25 coaches, players and college football teams of the 2000s.

They have Chip Kelly at No. 24.

They have Marcus Mariota at No. 15.

And, well, I wanted to go a little deeper. So in the spirit of ‘25, I’m putting together The I-5 Corridor’s list of the best 25 Oregon football players since 2000. While the list will come out next week, I needed Justin’s help to figure out where to start.
