    Rats. Ah well. Guess that means we're losing Gates too.

    We got Rolls Royce with 3 td's and the obvious MVP off the Army All American Game!!! Jalen Brown and Baker also looked damn good too! We'll be just fine!

    Go Ducks!!!

    Kansas LB Jimmie Swain commits to the Ducks during the Semper Fi game currently going on. He's got solid size and is a bright kid at a position of need... definitely stoked on Jimmie

    In bummer news of the day, Duck RB commit Tony James from Florida was chopped down from behind in a dead ball situation and looked to be in a great deal of pain... it looked bad

    Johnny Ragin is a LB from Wilsonville Oregon who played last season as a true freshman at Cal. He grew up a Ducks fan but Oregon didn't offer him until late in the process so he stuck with Cal. Reports coming out this weekend say that he'll be enrolling in Eugene for Winter term. He brings good size (6'3 225) and is another honor role level student.

    And we have JR3. Will he reshirt? Can't wait for Jimmie.

    Oh no! Well, he can redshirt right? DAT is returning his senior season

    Scout is reporting there is mutual interest between Oregon and a D-Tackle soft verbal to Louisville named Poona Ford. Of course Louisville's coach just left to take the Texas job today...

    he's tweeting back and forth with various Duck commits a lot. One of the latest... "Fun week foolin with the Brodie's @Tcarew10 @jdbrown2014 @buddabaker32"

    It seems Oregon has the inside track. On paper anyways, it sure looks like another talented and balanced class is coming our way

    those who follow recruiting a lot closer then I say that the biggest problem with this is an overall lack of quality big uglies in the class.... especially in the West. Not much the coaches can do to overcome that. Thankfully the 2015 class is supposed to be the exact opposite and several top BU prospects have expressed Duck interest.

    JC DT Tui Talia is supposed to be ready to go and up to nearly 300 lbs, so theres at least one for you. I've read quite a few pining for them to add more JC DLineman, but looking at how their classes are lining up is probably at least part of why they seem to be resisting dipping into that pool again. They've already got 6 Juniors to be on the DLine and adding Talia makes 7... thats a lot of kids to graduate from one unit in one year. Jalen Jelks projects to play at around 300 when he fills out, but it would really be nice if he had some Freshman company. Trey L's Duck prospects look good and it seems that they just offered S.Carolina DT Poona Ford. Adding at least one of these guys would help with the transition in a couple years when those 7 leave.

    Indeed. Can't wait to see them.

    Which guys in 2015 have expressed interest in the Ducks? I know that Seffner, FL dude is interested.

    Oregon has offered DL Courtney Garnett out of LA.

    6'2" 285# who also received offers from Texas, Tennessee, A&M, Oklahoma and others. Scout rates him as a three star DL with medium interest in Oregon.

    I doubt we will grab him. Okla and TAMU have distance advantage.

    In addition, McGraw is seen by some to commit to TAMU according to 247.

    Yeah but he did commit to Strong, plus there is always SCAR to content with(they do a good job keeping prospects instate) and Mizzou will point to the number of NFL talent on the D-line that came from Louisville.

    I think USC will get Adoree and Mama. That means we could get JuJu.

    yet another far away DT offer goes out this time to Michael Sawyers who up until now has been committed to Vanderbilt. Vandy just lost their coach... sensing a trend here.

    Anyhoo, by rivals he's the top rated and biggest DT they've currently got an offer out on
