Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News looks like Rodrigues has been updated to the ESPNU150. http://espn.go.com/college-football/recruiting/top150prospects/_/class/2012
who'd like to add a top DLineman from the state of Oregon? Hello Central Catholic's Alex Balducci STOMP
Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News One of my good friends brother is the coach at Central Catholic. I actually use to play basketball with both of them every week until I moved to Houston. Anywho, my buddy told me that his brother, Steve, was thinking he would sign with the Ducks about a week or two ago. Great news that it happened
a new DE commit from the wilds of Montana... Cody Carriger. http://rivals.yahoo.com/oregon/football/recruiting/player-Cody-Carriger-128962 and with that I'll bid ya'll adieu for a few weeks as I'm heading to France for vaca STOMP
Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News wow Dion Jordan the 2nd? Thanks for the updates Stomp. Have a great vacation!
here are links to the top 2 highest rated D-Lineman with Duck offers (the #5 & 6 rated prospects overall at any position nationally)... both are thought to be strongly considering Oregon and should make it out for official visits on a game day 6'4 245 pound Darius Hamilton 6'5 311 pound Ellis McCarthy [video=youtube;L06pcJQ44f8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L06pcJQ44f8[/video] STOMP

Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News interesting. Obviously its just highlights so I cant say I know anything about his school.. but he was under Center for everything in at least the first 2 minutes I watched. And Rivals has him as a Pro Style QB. That and the under Center Chip used in the NC and Spring Game, look like he is adding a new wrinkle to prepare for.
Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News oh wow... I could have swore I saw them as Dual Threat QB's. Do you think they will ad more Pro Sets with the more NFL type talent coming in?
the Ducks usually only run 5-6 plays, but they mix up the sets that they run them from. I'm not that savvy with my football X's & O's, but I don't see why they couldn't mix in some under center stuff too. I'm excited to see how they integrate and move around these big athletic TE's they've been signing. a couple other tidbits on Lockie. His brother just finished his freshman year at UO. JL camped at Oregon this summer and has been working out with Jeff Maehl the past few months. He was officially offered Wednesday afternoon, talked it over with his parents that night, and accepted in the morning. You've got to like a kid who truly wants to go to your school and I think this is pretty clearly the case here. STOMP
Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News Updated original post with current commits, I'll work on the prospects once it gets narrowed down a little more. Alot of these kids just finished their Junior Year so not a ton of info out there.
Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News Apparently we are in Kwon Alexander's top 5 and guaranteed an official visit
he was one of the first Duck offers and has spoken to coming out west on an official with Safety teammate Trae Elston since at least early Spring STOMP
Re: 2012 Commits and Recruiting News http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recruiting/teamrank/2012/all/all Rivals recruiting rankings for the 2012 class are out. Texas is #1. Beavs at #22 and Ducks at #27. It's still early though.
yup. Not only will a lot more players be signed by most every school, but individual ratings of players will change. Rivals current ratings were done prior to the summer camps where their staff got to see a lot of these guys in person for the first time... in some cases (like the Duck's commit Carriger) they didn't even have film on them. I'd guess both CC and Rodrigues pick up a star in the next round of evaluations. STOMP
