    So either though Ellis is committed to UCLA(bad move IMO), could he change his mind and go to Oregon?

    Also, any news yet?

    What I've heard is that Chip and crew didn't get back with him! No sure why, but it seems they didn't pursue him after initial visit to Eugene.....

    Shaq also said that Oregon was out of the running, and guess where we are now. These are 17-18 year old kids. Minds change.... a lot.

    Wow! "I call it like I see it" and you need to edit my opinions Wheels? WOW!


    Please don't allow this board to turn into a place where posters are not allowed to have different opinions without being pack dog attacked by the regular crew, or soon this very SELDOM used and SEEN Duck board will be hearing crickets.

    I expect better out of a mod! You're supposed to be neutral and not allow things to get nasty here, not editing posters words to fit "YOUR INTERPRETATIONS"

    You didn't??? Guess how this reads... "Shaq and Arik maybe Puppies following their money bone"

    relationships genius. By all accounts, dude is very charismatic. He was selling Cal which on top of being him alma mater and one of the best academic Universities in the land, is seeing a massive upgrade in it's facilities. Of course your earlier conspiracy theories didn't include that fact as you called their facilities crap.

    right, and then later on (according to him) we stopped calling him. I've told you this before but it doesn't fit into your nonsense so you just skip over it

    pot meet kettle

    everyone is entitled to an opinion, even the tin foil hat variety. Good luck with that.

    unless you were literally saying that you are calling it like you see it, cause you have seen something? If so I implore you to report it, all of us would have a better chance of being much MUCH happier on Feb 1st :cheers:

    So, do we have an idea on who might be a True Freshman and who may start this year? I know Kyle Long will for sure.

    And there's he starting QB job between Mariota or Bennett. Or Kelly could try to make J-Rod a True Freshman and develop him like how USC did with Barkley, but of course that means no Pac-12 title as we WILL lose some games.

    And since we won't get Shaq we may not get Armistead either?

    Well...at least we got Blair and Buckner. And Pharoah Brown looks to be a promising TE.

    with the depth of high caliber athletes this team has now. I dont think any Freshman start this year, unless we get Shaq somehow, then maybe.

    The Money Bone is Tosh Genius! Try if you can, to draw a line to the common denominator OK! Tosh #1 recruiter on rivals this year a company that was created and run by HUSKIE alum... now Tosh making 300k + with new job where? UW, are ya following me here Stomp? Do ya need a flair gun and a map? Now Tosh going after Arik and Shaq once again...

    Hey genius? Ya really think Tosh is selling schools now? Some of your other dribble you were selling the thought that Cal was the bomb with campus, faciltites and so on... now your saying it's Tosh's relationship with the players and cleary that trumps the school and the head coach, and how they'll fit in, the proximity to thier families and everything else. Pick a side Stomp and try and stick to it.

    his parents are supposed to have pushed very hard for him to stay close to home. Besides that, I heard that Oregon pulled their offer to him a while back. I don't know exactly why that was, but I'll speculate that they feel pretty secure/good with the DLine guys they have verbally committed and don't want to overload the cupboards. Teams like Florida who continually sign a bunch of 4-5* DLine primadonnas who all expect to play immediately provide examples of what we want to avoid.

    little news, lots of speculations. They are supposed to feel really good about the two receivers coming in this weekend (Allen & Addison). I've heard that their visiting this weekend was in the works for a long time and shouldn't be an indication of how they're doing with other WR options like Thomas Johnson. Btw, Allen & Addison are best friends and are thought to be a package deal for the Ducks... either both or neither

    I finally saw the connection between "money bone", Tosh, and "Puppies".

    And I laughed

    Hey GP, Wheels didn't edit your post. He quoted part of it and and just edited it as part of a response to you. Anyone can edit the part of the post they are quoting. Some do it to make a point others do it for comedic effect.

    I agree with your point about expecting more from Wheels as mod but that's because of how bad of a mod I am. The better he is the worse I can be.

    Hey Ghost,

    Look man, I'm not on anyone's side here. This dispute you dudes have going is new to me and it doesn't matter to me who is right. In this case, I think that your arguments are just a little confusing. I'm sure you have what you are saying straight in your mind, but it just isn't coming out clearly in your post. I think this dispute is an issue of confusing writing, which Wheels and the others are taking as flawed logic.

    Are you saying that these guys were payed off by Cal? By Tosh? Or are you just insinuating that something dirty is going down in Cal or with Tosh? If so, do you have any evidence beyond your personal suspicions? Your writing just doesn't make clear what you are contending here. I'm a straight shooter bud, and I have to tell you that what you are writing comes out as a string of insinuations instead of any kind of coherent argument.

    Now I'm not saying you don't having something you want to argue. I'm saying that I don't think what you have ACTUALLY WRITTEN makes a ton of sense.

    If you want to clarify your argument I'd be happy to read it.

    MJA

    Mornin SPD.

    Also, I may take interest in being a USC Football forum mod. Interested to say the least.

    Also it kinda blows how we lost some guys to UCLA. What recruits could we use? I mean, it wouldn't hurt to get another 4* if possible in the next 4 days.
