New RB target-from Jhop

[Destroyer77]

Jhop scooped that it's Conner over on 247 Sports. Go over there guys and seriously consider paying for the content because nobody gets the inside like Prehm and Jhop. I've seen both of these guys break information literally 3 days before the big boys.

This is a great site for banter and odds and ends, but real up-to-the-second recruiting information is on 247. No, I don't work for them.

That's what this website used to be. Jhop and matt did an amazing job and ducksattack would have so much good material it was insane. Now there isn't as much good info, but still have great 'usual' posters that make conversations interesting. But, I do miss the old days. Know your roots jhop and matt, we miss you guys.

I second that and I am quite content with this site. The information comes down soon enough and in the meantime it is fun to read the content even if it is not the best and latest info and converse with the others on this site. Thanks everyone!

That's why I still come back here. I used to come to get the latest recruiting info, but now it is to talk with other Duck fans and get the occasional recruiting tidbit.

I'd take this kids size and athletic ability in a heartbeat. As long as he isn't a nut job like LGB. Give me quality depth anytime. Look at this year, Barner is hurt and James is banged up a little bit. We don't want to burn Seastrunk's redshirt because you have to think about playing time and the timing of when guys will graduate and/or be drafted. This JC can redshirt and/or get plugged into the Tazer position easily. Move Huff out wide next year and now we are really big and fast at the receiver position to both block and make big plays downfield in the passing game.

red shirt is already used (re: Mississippi State), so Conner would have 3 seasons available at Oregon.

This guy looks great I hope we get him!

ESPN insider is required, rivals has a bunch but they're locked to subscription viewers also.

Conner is physically gifted, with a great blend of size and straight-line speed. He's tall and isn't a naturally fluid runner, but he could develop into a workhorse college back in a power-running scheme. Has typical north-south rushing skills, and is difficult to arm tackle when he squares up his shoulders and runs downhill. He's basically a one-gear back, but he hits the hole fast and can be a load to bring down after he gains momentum. Shows adequate shiftiness through traffic, but prefers to follow his blocks, lower his shoulder and run through smaller defenders. Has superior upper- and lower-body strength and power. Picks up good production after contact and runs with deceptive balance, despite his taller frame. Finishes runs and keeps his legs churning. Can wear down a defense and make defensive backs think twice about coming up in run support when he reaches the second level. Has mostly straight-line athleticism and lacks the lateral quickness to consistently avoid defenders. Could struggle to pick and slide through traffic in a zone scheme. Needs to regularly run with good body tilt at the next level to remain productive after contact and avoid big hits. Lacks a second gear and burst when he finds an open seam, and he isn't very elusive in space. Conner is a tough, blue-collar competitor and a hard-nosed runner. If his skills don't develop sufficiently on offense, he could make one heckuva strong safety or outside linebacker and special-teamer.

I'm really not sure how any recruit these days doesn't upload there own highlight video to youtube.

Yeah, i tried typing his name into Youtube but nothing came up.

With Sistrunk and Williams coming online next season, I would not be suprised if Barner moves to reciever/Tazr permanately in order to get them all on the field at the same time. Considering the loss of 2 starting WR next year, Barner would be a great slot reciever.

Coach Cam visited Conner last week, so there is some serious Oregon interest.

And D77, did we just become best friends? Thanks for the positive pub.
