    interesting twist on the Byers commitment.

    if Oregon is to primarily run a 3-4, then the three D Line spots are WSDE, NT & SSDE.

    rivals lists Byers as a SSDE which at 260 lbs coming out of HS seems a fair/conservative projection as you'd like to have the guy at that position around 275. Ideally a NT is around 300 lbs like Heimuli, Keliikipi & Ebert.

    correct Thats what I was thinking when I saw him as a SSDE on Rivals. I just cant get the prototypical 4-3 out of my head as I'm so used to it lol. But yeah SSDE at around 275 I could def see happening.

    word is he won't qualify and will have to go the JC route. I guess schools do this to make their class look better on Signing Day while the player saves some face for the time being. Oregon was doing this just a few years ago.

    regardless of who USC gets into their program, Kelly >>> Kiffin

    it's not like the cupboards were void of talent when LK arrived... they've had top rated recruiting classes every year for the past decade. But while they've continued to sign a boatload of top rated talent this year, their O-Line depth is getting scary thin. If the NCAA ruling goes as expected, they could end up being leapfrogged by a lot of PAC-12 programs next season.

    Oregon's rise in recruiting has come as kids saw that they could win here. What will happen to USC when kids see that mediocrity is the new standard? I'm guessing the same thing that has happened to UCLA... have you seen their class thus far?

    yeah UCLA's class is pretty pathetic to this point. The thing that still worries me though, is for some reason Slick Rick is a pretty strong closer. Although it would take a minor miracle, but I still am worried a little.

    he is listed as an ATH or CB by services... Think of it this way IMO Cliff Harris minus 3 inches (heightwise (I have to specify that with you)) ;) and a 10th of a second faster in the 40.

    aaaaand Cliff Harris was never the #5 Overall Prospect on the Rivals 100. He was #46... which is still good :)
