Say what you want about Tosh, but that guy can recruit. I wanted Shaq so I am sad to see him sign elsewhere. Oregon gets enough athletes that they should be able to flip someone to safety though. I also agree with whoever said AA should be a DT.
Hey all, First post for me. Kyle Long is sounding like a really solid OL, what are the chances he gets a second year to play?
I heard we lost some OL, so an experienced vet like Long, whose been playing every year in college, has a good chance to start this year
Sorry, was not clear. What I mean is that he has one year of eligibility left but plans to petition for a second. Wondering what the chances of him getting that second year are.
Ryan Clanton, Hamani Stevens & Jake Fisher weren't starters but did see a lot of action last year. Oregon likes to use their full roster and thats true along the offensive line too. If not as a starter, Kyle Long has a good shot of at least getting into the rotation. Competing with him for snaps will be 4 pretty highly touted guys from last year's class who Redshirted. Landing 5 LBs and 5 OLineman last year is probably the biggest reason we've seen this year's class only land 1 LB (Bafaro) & 1 OLineman (Long). Next recruiting cycle those will be more critical positions to fill. btw...here is a link to a favorite Duck site. Hovering your cursor over a player's name pops up a brief info on them, clicking the name accesses the player's full official bio. I also like how you can query the players with the star ratings they received and whatnot. STOMP
@Ike Ah, well I have no clue. He may decide to redshirt next season to understand the offense, then he can play I think.
thank you for linking that again Stomp!! I have been looking for that and could never remember where it was!
What I like reading about Kyle Long was what Howie said.... That Kyle had all the God given talent that Chris long had to work so hard for and look where Chris is now. If Kyle's head is on straight now the Ducks will have a STUD our there! My home town knows this kid had some troubles but Howie can get in your ear and something tells me Kyle will be damn good in Eugene!
Yes. Man, living down here in Texas, and working with several Longhorn alums was rough when Cottrell bolted, but they are all about A&M losing Addison to us.
So we could get those 2? I mean I heard they played against each other but are friends and would rather play together and far away then apart but close to home.
Did you explain to them that the fact that Texas is trolling for 3 stars is a sign of how far they have fallen???
I actually said "It's a tough loss, I hope he can elevate your program so you can beat the likes of UCLA at home"
Texas just flipped Cottrell, who was a verbal to UO. Cottrell is a 3* player, which for Texas, was beneath them just a few years ago (or so you'd think from their fans). Throw in the Mack Brown conspiracy theory about Will Lyles, and I'm will to mock Texas for anything.
Jordan Payton to ... UW. http://seattle.sbnation.com/washington-huskies/2012/1/31/2761911/jordan-payton-washington-huskies Cal must be having a meltdown, although I still think they end up with a better class than UW.
On Scout someone said Dozier has committed to WSU, so that'd be another recruit lost by Cal. He hasn't announced yet, so it could just be someone making shit up.
