Love this. A huge bonus to have them help recruit Williams. From what I’ve seen, they have been on him for a while. Nice that they actually will all be on campus together to help foster the relationships, versus just tweets. Great effort guys!!!

Top 3 Oregon, Arizona, Gonzaga.

Nice to see Hurley out as they made a strong push and have a need there.

Sounds like Pritchard made a strong push for Williams on his visit on how he wants him and they could play well together(which I agree with).


Arizona fans are absolutely stalking this kid on Twittter, kinda sad. Outside of "congratulations" or "go ducks", or maybe a funny duck GIF/edit if that's your thing, please don't tweet/instagram "advice" or negative stuff to the recruits ya'll.

The comments on Williams' Instagram shot of him in an Oregon uniform were cringe-worthy, especially with how worked up some Arizona fans were of the photo.

Sounds like Brandon's step father was very impressed with Pritchard pulling Brandon aside and talking to him. All in all, gotta think the Ducks still win this one.

Visiting Gonzaga April 28th, instead of June. This means a decision will likely be coming in weeks, rather than months.

Glad that got moved up. If we do miss on Williams, it will give us more shots at grad transfers, etc.

We just offered PG Franco Miller Jr.

Probably if Williams doesn't work out, we will get Miller. Also Brandon Williams is visiting Gonzaga this weekend, so we should know officially sometime in the next couple weeks if he'll be a Duck or not.

Miller seems like a big-step down (rankings-wise) from Williams but Altman has a way of finding late talent. Biggest thing about him is that he's originally from the Bahamas who didn't have a lot of exposure to major level scouts after attending schools in both the US and Canada. Also, he seems to be kind of a combo guard since I've seen him listed as both a shooting guard and point guard, which may be due to him now being 6'5" instead of the 6'2" that most recruiting sites have him listed at.
