Just saw it on 247. Great news. I think he will be a fine addition to the team.

We knew it was coming, but an excellent addition nonetheless. Seems like a high character kid. I also love that he's an excellent student. Hopefully, LMJ will wanna stay another year to be on the same team as his buddy.

This is great news! We'll be loaded at running back now for years to come. Carson will take the slot left open by the graduation of Remene Alston.

By the the way, my hat's off to Remene. He came clear across the country from North Carolina to play football at Oregon and pretty much every year he was here someone more talented passed him up on the roster. He took it in stride, got his education and took advantage of his opportunities on the field when they arose. A real team player.

I would love to see the Ducks up by a couple TD's late in the 4th so Remene could get 3-4 carries. Something he could share with his Kids and GrandKids.

Anyway, back on topic. Great pick up for the Ducks!

100% agreed with this. Plus, you could tell how happy Remene was for Barner and LMJ when they succeeded. And they would cheer for him as well. This is a great and selfless team. Love them.

As for Carson, just watch his film. That's all I will say. We got a definite steal.

I'm so glad we got him. Anyone who hasn't seen his videos go to You Tube and watch. Very agile for a big guy. :D

The Texas schools are going to be kicking themselves again when we have another TX RB blowing up, especially now that almost every RB on the roster next season will be from TX, save for Barner.

This^^ Pretty sure this is going to be a huge steal. Can't believe how well he moves for how big he is.

As someone else astutely pointed out earlier, he is reminiscent of Blount in 2008.

I actually think he is already a little more agile and shifty than Blount was in 08
