Only thing I am concerned with is if Rust is leaving to pursue his baseball career.
None of these are losses, wish them all best of luck in the future though.

Re: Mattingly, 3 walk-ons leave program
Just thought it worth noting that, as of 10 days after this thread was created, Mattingly is still listed on the current roster.

If he's not going to see the field after all this time, whats the point. The only one that hurts is Connor Berggran. Not sure why he's leaving, by all accounts he was progressing.UOducksTK1 wrote:Yeah he really was a bust, I wonder if it was partly due to poor player devlopment at LB too though.uostudent wrote:Mattingly was a bust. Highly regarded recruit with athletic bloodlines. Mattingly is a physical specimen, but seemed very slow to diagnose plays. Would have been interesting to potentially see him on the offensive end, but he had no business playing defense anymore at Oregon.
