    With how we rotate O-lineman I am not concerned at all. Almost all of the two deep have significant game experience.

    Yeah, that's really smart on Kelly's part. Get his young guys experience.

    first time I checked was a couple days back and he was at 300+ Now he's at 630

    not only does Oregon rotate their subs in a lot, but they've some some of their highest ranked recruits waiting in the wings. From last year Clanton and Rowland were both 4* and they've another two 4*s coming in this next class (Andre Y and Johnstone). The D-Line is where your concern should be

    add in Cantu and Dungy to that core

    your assumption on CW appears to be wrong as he's been all TE during his redshirt year.

    hopefully Hamani Stevens will return from his mission (and won't be too out of football shape) and Heimuli won't go on his (like Haloti didn't)

    Yeah, Curtis White has been taking snaps in practice at TE and the coaching staff is looking to make him the "guy" after Paulson graduates.

    The Ducks have been great at developing players at the TE position(Peele, Wrighster, Rosario, Day, Dickson, Paulson), Curtis White at 6'5" 240 pounds may be the most athletic and physical specimen they've ever had at the position.

    I'm looking forward to seeing more Brandon Williams... who is likely to be the starting TE next year

    Also, whoever this is sounds like he's coming to Oregon in a year or two, but I can't find any information on him.

    He's a kid. It's not surprising that a kid that age would be that excited about college and playing for the #1 team in the country. Plus, if the Ducks did their job recruiting, he SHOULD be this excited about coming to Oregon.

    This is awesome. Oregon is the "hip" new school.

    They've spent a lot of money trying to build that rep.

    Lame. He cut off the rest of the quote about him and Devon Blackmon. Otherwise, he seemed like he enjoyed his visit, but he really lit up when he talked about Florida. It seemed like he wasn't super excited about UO though. Not like Blackmon.

    I guess Farmer's dad has been quoted as saying, "We don't choose a school for athletics, we're going to pick a school according to it's education."

    Then I'd say Oregon has a leg up on Florida and Miami. Cal has them all beat. With a name like George, I figured he was a studious fellow.

    I hate when parents control their kid's future like that.

    He did make a point to bring up Oregon's academics as well. Maybe that was for his dad?

    Farmer's been pretty much a USC lock from Day 1, so it will be a complete shocker if he ends up anywhere else.
