Hopefully the game impressed Gibson, Lee, and Farmer enough to make them lean towards Oregon.

I would hope these guys are Oregon leans considering it is pretty apparent there is a shift in power in the conference and Oregon is all over the TV so these recruits will get plenty of love and attention playing at Oregon and will certainly be prepared to play in the NFL and will get some conference wins maybe even a NC or two.

Well, the Ducks wont be deep next year, so show em the depth chart and reel em in. There will be spots open at WR, LB, and DE, etc.

I want George Farmer here so bad it's crazy. He'd be amazing in Chip's offense.

I think just about any guy that can run and catch could be a star in Chip's offense.

Looking at the depth chart I'm not sure how open those spots really are. Hopefully Alonso and Stuckey can contribute next year at LB, if so we should be in good shape for a while. If Cantu can step up and look like he did that spring game I think WR will be solid as well. Regardless with the amount of people that are rotated there should be time for a lot of young players.
BOOF it!

Yes, but some players are special. Percy Harvin, Aj Green, Trent Richardson, Robert Woods this season, etc. George Farmer is one of those guys. 6'2, 200 lb incoming freshman with world class speed? Those types are rare, and when you have the chance to get them, it's better that you do.

And it'd be that much better if you could have Devon Blackmon lining up on the opposite hash of Farmer, with Lache coming out of the backfield... One can dream.

Reading up on Blackmon and it seems like he really doesn't have much interest in the Ducks. I visit can do wonders, but I just don't think we will land him.

I know, which is unfortunate. Maybe there's a shot at Lee though? He already lines up opposite of Farmer, why not bring the duo on up to Eugene? :D

Blackmon has always been considered a UCLA lean. I'd be pretty surprised if he ends up elsewhere.

Great player, though he should ask Nelson Rosario how he feels about choosing UCLA over Oregon.

I don't quite understand why a projected WR would go to UCLA. They don't throw the ball.

I am sure the Norm Chow factor combined with LA weather and women plays a big role.

Brett Hundley will be their QB next season.

Hammering the two SC schools on national TV, being ranked a consensus number one, with a very winnable end of our schedule, SC on sanctions for the next two years, Oregon needs to seize the recruiting landscape and steal some big time 5 stars this year.

What this really does is make sure that early verbals, like Randall and Sumler, stay committed to Oregon, because we're the best team in the nation right now, it really provides security on those types of recruits.
