You don't put in the number of guys into the league & be immediately successful at DB that we have in the past couple years without seeing a major bump up in interest from kids. The high rated guys like Cliff Harris, Erick Dargan & Dior Mathis are just the tip of the iceberg.
We picked up M. Davis from Texas too, I've got to think that he saw some of that DB success and that that was part of his decision to come to Eugene.

I would think so.

We're only losing 1 CB (Jackson) & 2 rovers

We picked up Olumu, Tyson Coleman, & Marcus Davis

We still need a grip of D linemen and WR's

I thought Coleman was growing into a LB?

I guarantee we will not turn Walls or Lee down.

Plus Davis will be a couple of classes ahead of these guys.

I'm not sure, but I've read that some think he's a safety

No question we take Lee, not really sure about Walls

True, he will be a redshirt sophomore next year. We also have 6 freshman who are currently redshirting this year as well. I'm not sure what's the typical amount of DBs on the roster is, but it seems like we're pretty loaded.

We would absolutely take Walls. He's one of the top safeties in the country.

Stefan McClure is supposed to be visiting next month and I'm pretty sure we wouldn't turn him down either

Well unless we get some early enroll or Grey shirt candidates..... we have 12 scholarships left to give.... how do you guys see that breaking down? My guess would be 5 defensive linemen, 2 wide receivers, 1 running back, 2 Line backers, 1 TE and 1?

I don't see Oregon taking a TE, other than French and he's likely Iowa bound. The only way Oregon takes another RB is if it's Bigelow.

Carlyle Garrick and Kyrie Wilson are greyshirt candidates.

what makes those 2 greyshirt candidates?

And you don't think they take Tra Carson at RB?

I thought you were counting Carson. Isn't he pretty much a lock?

Garrick is pretty raw and was not highly recruited at all.

Wilson is less likely to greshirt, but may asked to do so because he definitely isn't going to play as a freshman. So why a greyshirt rather than a redshirt? He wasn't highly recruited and this may have been an option that the coaching staff discussed with him.

I hope so, but I was only counting who have verbally committed via ESPN. Typically we only ask players to greyshirt if they're coming off or rehabbing an injury. Asking a kid to pay his way is a tough sell otherwise, but they may be willing if they didn't have any other options?

Greyshirts are part time students. If they took two classes a term, they would pay $14,340 for a year of tuition. Certainly doable. At worst, they take out a loan. Most students graduate with $20k+ in debt.

Garrick didn't have any other offers and Wilson's other options were Wazzu and Fresno St.
