    One stop shopping is ideal and its how most boards do things. Who wants to have to scroll through and click through a bunch of different posts to read daily recruiting news.

    Not talking daily recruiting news. Talking big news like commits. Those don't happen daily.

    I like the endless single recruiting thread. I've been stuck at home with a case of poison oak and killed some time flipping through last years thread yesterday. It was fun to recall how that unfolded chronologically. It's like a time capsule of events

    Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News


    This. Also, this thread is 12 pages. Not hundreds or thousands... 12. Even if you merged all the other commit threads from the past year into this one it would be like what... 25 pages? It's not some massive behemoth that's so hard to navigate that people can't even have a conversation. This forum isn't big enough to be making seperate threads about everything that happens. I agree that individual stories that are noteworthy, like the DAT commit, deserve their own conversations. But how is it not able to happen here? There's not enough people in this forum to derail a continual conversation about anything in this thread. Just my 2 cents. Single thread forever!

    Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News

    Guys, I'm not saying we should go away from this thread. I'm not saying this thread should end. I'm simply saying that big news, like Bafaro giving a verbal, should also be posted as a thread of its own. That's big news and it's something I would like to see as soon as I log onto the forum.

    Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News

    I prefer different threads myself (I say this as a poster, not as an admin... I defer to the mods in this forum in terms of how it should be run). Maybe we can have different threads that then get wrapped into the "recruiting" thread when they're done? That way conversations about certain topics can be differentiated when they're happening, but encapsulated into one for posterity?

    Like I said, though: whatevs. :)

    This is a huge get for Altman. That back court, next year, has a chance to be the best in the Pac 12

    Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News

    As for the forum recruiting thread. The ONLY change I would like to see is having a basketball specific sticky thread. Or if nothing else, a basketball specific sticky thread that covers all Ducks hoops news

    Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News

    sure thing.

    Do you mind starting the thread that way you have the option of editing the Original Post if you want to add news to it at all, and then I'll sticky it? College Basketball is not my strength at all. I think the last full game I watched was the elite 8 game with Oregon vs Florida against Noah, Horford, and Brewer.

    If Oregon plays 40 minutes of hell like they say they are, they will be very exciting

    *4 Athlete David Perkins has reopened his recruiting after earlier committing to Notre Dame. He has identified two schools he plans on visiting, LSU & Oregon. He'd most likely be an outside LB/drop DE on Oregon
