The Oregon Duck is taking the departure of OC Scott Frost hard
The Oregon football nation was saddened today when it learned offensive coordinator Scott Frost was leaving Eugene to be the head coach at UCF, but no one is taking the new harder than the team’s beloved mascot, the Oregon Duck.
For more than an hour, the Oregon Duck used Twitter to question what he had done wrong to cause Frost to make such a decision.
Is it something I said @coach_frost ?

Then that sadness turned to anger.
Delete my number! K bye @coach_frost

Then regret.
No I'm sorry I didn't mean that! Baby come back! @coach_frost

Then it veered into a dark place.

And finally, acceptance.

Then, the Oregon Duck decided to do what most people do after a tough breakup.

The Oregon Duck won’t be proud of this timeline when he emerges from his food coma. Someone should really take his computer and phone away before he starts calling Frost and begging for a second chance.
Only time will heal these wounds. Well, time and another shiny, new offensive coordinator.
