It looks like he just got offers from Iowa and Arkansas. I wonder how long the ducks are going to play wait and see with him?

They aren't going to be able to wait much longer but if he's real interested in Oregon, he may wait long enough for an offer to come.

I think Oregon offered but he needs to visit in order to commit.

We can only take one RB, so it's either Carson or Bigelow.

I'd be happy with either.

I'd highly prefer Bigelow, he is very talented.

Yeah he is but he is always an injury risk, and Carson seems to be a talented bruiser.... just saying i don't really care either way. We've got enough playmaker studs at RB and slot that I think it might be nice also to have a Blount type RB.

I think the coaching staff would take both, if they are greyshirting Garrick. Bigelow has excellent hands and could see a lot of time at slot receiver. I could see him kind of being like a Joseph Addai or Reggie Bush type of back.

Maybe.

Remember we have 10 spots left probably, possibly 11 (though Dixon is against this year's class).

We need three more WRs. And probably 3-4 more DL guys.

That's seven out of 10.

We'll take one more LB, and a TE as well. I just don't see taking two RBs here.

Spot dependent but I would love to land this kid...his video is really good especially once he learns to run N and S!

We'll take both.

If it comes down to it, we need more lineman than we do RBs. We could literally plug any of the top 200 rb recruits in the nation into our offense and they would have success. We can't say the same on our lines.

Latest info on Bigelow is sounding very good for Cal.

Let's hope that his teammate Kelley isn't leaning that way also. Kelley would look good in this offense. Even if Kelley doesn't pick Oregon, there are still a lot of players left on the board: Farmer, Lee, Blackmon, and Vaughan.

you could be right.

this really brings up the available scholarship slots and the importance of bringing in guys at WR and DL, however.

Ideally we bring in:

Farmer
Lee
Blackmon
Lee
1 RB
2 DT
2 DE
1 TE
1 Surprise

I don't see how this leaves room for 2 RBs maybe you can enlighten me!

What is CAL selling these kids...they suck on the field, what a waste of talent!

I guess they are after the education angle...

Well scout has Carson visting next week, and Hakeem Flowers has been added to that list as well. Kelley is listed as visiting this week, but I've read reports contradicting that. Maybe with Flowers coming out, they feel they can land Sumler, plus 2 out of 3 of Blackmon, Farmer and Flowers. Throw in a JC guy, Vaugan, Carter, or Denham(my personal favorite), and that's a solid WR class.
