    ...that we know of

    It's uncharted territory for Duck fans to have the class pretty much filled going into signing day... we're used to being really anxious about something or other. Lots of big athletic lineman on both sides of the ball. Incredible speed being added at the skill spots. Pretty sure Waller is the highest rated QB Oregon has ever landed.

    I would have loved to see them add a stud at Drop End, but at the same time I'm pretty optimistic about Hollins and with French returning needs are hardly pressing there. I expect next years class to be loaded with great LBs looking to fill the impending voids

    I believe we turned over every rock before offering Waller and that was a CRIME! We were very lucky that this kid didn't tell us to shove it and go to ND or Arizona. This kid has the "IT" quality and players just like Merritt gravitate to him and the Ducks have been rewarded already for it. Waller will win us a national championship before he graduates! I didn't even say that about Marcus who was hands down the best QB Oregon will ever have!

    Something tells me we just had our big NSD moment with Merritt's commitment. I wish there was at least one big gun left for us, but credit to helf for leaving nothing to chance.

    #15 recruiting class, with a lot of 3* who look pretty underrated on film. This was a great recruiting cycle!

    Look, we all want to be top 10, but until we finish and take home the natty, this is where we are going to be every year.

    Go Ducks!

    In the last couple years I've seen recruits who are trying to get their one time in the lime light moments say five different schools are their favorites, then commit, de-commit and finally go to a school that no one could have seen them enrolling with. This is as much ESPN, and the recruiting sites faults as it is these immature young people looking for attention. So of course recruiting has become a spectacle on the level of a weekly supermarket checkout tabloid. Think about how many coaches wasted time recruiting Paulo when this kid knew all along he was going to Utah. How many top tier kids have named Oregon a favorite and never even seen our school? Byron Cowart and Arden Key this year come to mind. How many kids come to Oregon for a NIKE product grab and to be able to tell their friends about the state of the art facilities?

    Oregon needs to spend their time finding a Junipero Serra High School feeder program just like USC has and lock it down too. The school that gave us Eric Dargan and Avery Patterson ,Pittsburg High School seems like an under the radar starting point to me and it's out of the SoCal Bruin/ Trojan anything goes recruiting zone!

    Nemec tweeted that we'll be in for a fun one tomorrow. Not sure what that means, one would hope Houston or at least Taufu or maybe Adams. seems unlikely to be talking about Moi or Uluave's announcemnt.

    Wouldn't shock me if Green or Cowart said Quack! But I wont hold my breath either!

    These young men are all trying to out do one another it seems.

    They get both Green and Houston as expected, no surprises tomorrow.

    And they won't develop into better players and USC will still suck. Because they have a shitty coach.

    May the new recruits enjoy the nice weather, along with their annual trip to the Holiday Bowl!

    Hopkins calls Ullave to Cal. Bummer.

    Assuming he's right, that is.

    Locke signs with Texas, and UCLA getting quite a haul too with Jamabo and Clark. Cowart to Auburn as well.

    Now let's grab Houston

    Uluave to cal, as i've suspected. Now we wait for our .01% shot at houston, but our day was prettymuch over before it began.

    Kinda nice if you ask me. Normally we have been hoping for late grabs to get the ranking Oregon is at now. Nice to have work wrapped up before hand IMO.

    In a move shocking no one, Houston commits to USC. Only Bostic left to send something in, otherwise our day is done.
