Seriously..his background picture on twitter is him decked out in Oregon gear and his little icon is also him in Oregon gear. Would he really go to such great lengths to tease fans and gain twitter followers? Possibly. I think it's more like that he loved his visit and is a heavy Oregon lean. Not only would Blackmon be a great addition to the football team, but he would be a big boost to the track team too.
“If everybody in this room just want to be real with themselves, this game could have went either way,” he said. “We turned the ball over a lot. We beat ourself. Just be real with yourself right now. We beat ourself.”

I thought he might be playing around with us...After seeing all the love he's giving/getting on his twitter, I'm not so sure he isn't a soft commit.

We honestly don't know what he's doing. He could be repping Oregon gear since he just got back and he's truly excited or he's just trying to get as many people following his recruitment. We'll find out sooner or later.

It's just a guess, but.... I think the cat is outta the bag, either-way Blackmon is gonna be a Duck.

I like the engagement analogy. If he stops taking other visits and verbals us he is more than likely signing in Feb. If he still wants to visit others than that is fine and we may currently be in position A. But visiting other schools is like still dating other girls. You aren't engaged if you are still dating others.

I think it was the way the verbal tweet was structured that was a violation of ncaa rules. Saying, "I'll sign if you do this..." A conditional statement, which is a no, no. That being said, he looks like all Oregon.
