    The speculation I read was that Oregon had projected his future at Nickle while he wants to be a shutdown Boundary CB. At the next level, Nickle CBs don't get paid like guys you can put outside on an island... best of luck to him

    If anyone would know his strengths, it would the DB coach (his Dad).

    Coach Meat might've also been talking to him about the freshman talent coming in next year.

    Certainly there are other teams with easier paths to the field at CB then Oregon. Their starting Nickle CB Tysheem Johnson and Field CB Jahlil Florence return next season. Also returning are one former 4* stud after another including several from the last class (Martin's). According to all the major recruiting sites, Oregon has four real talents coming in at DB. NFL bound Khyree Jackson was their boundary corner last season, but I've read that with his elite speed and length JC transfer Sione Laulea is expected to take Jackson's starting spot.

    Will be interested to see where he goes, the talent and coaching in that program, etc.

    He played all 14 games as a true freshman, not something that can be said about all the other DBs in his class.

    Just sad. This team had a winless season in the last decade and somehow completely lapped us. If I’m Phil Knight I would be devastated

    Jordan Burch announces he'll return for his senior season!! That's huge news for the Duck defense

    also: Noah Whittington will return for his senior season as well, but he might not be 100% by the season opener

    Crazy. It's almost like UW is pulling from far more people in a far larger market, in the middle of a premier city full of billionaires.

    Instead of, you know, Eugene.
