Looks like Cal is doing in homes on the Serra Trio this week

At this point in the season, Oregon has little need to negative recruit, and a lot of recruits can be turned off by stuff like that anyway.

Like every other team that tries to push that UO is a 'gimmick' offense and how it won't translate well to the NFL??? Hey man, you gotta use all the ammo in your holster. All is fair in love, war and recruiting.

The majority of the time, this stuff will either reinforce that recruit's already held belief or go against it and turn off that recruit. I agree, you use everything at your disposal, but this kind of stuff has to be a calculated risk. Ever wonder how many kids ended up at USC after other coaches implied they would not crack the depth chart if they decided to go there?

But using the depth chart on some players backfires since you are telling them that they aren't good enough to play as FR at USC but can at your school. It makes your school look weak by comparison and a lot of these players want a little competition in getting playing time.
