I was under the impression that he will be moved to OT, but I could definitely be wrong.
Jenkins doesn't want to admit it yet, but he's going to be a TE by the time he finishes at U-Duh

Do you mean, not going to be a TE D07? I know when I talked to him last may at the camp in Eugene he really like SC, but was bummed that they wanted him to play DL. If SC had told him he would play TE, he would be a trojan.

The kid is already pretty big, my understanding is he's already above 270 which means he might get to play next year as a TE since the depth chart is so bad for the poodles, but after a year's worth of collegiate strength training combined with his potential as a Left Tackle and by his SO year he'll be on OL. Looking way ahead to a potential nfl future, he would also be able to earn a lot more $ as a LT than as a TE. Of course, he could also slim down but long-term he looks like a Tackle

Also, the poodles class is only ahead of Oregon because of total recruits/points. If you go by star ranking, they're just above 3 whereas we're just below 3.5. I don't know who else they can close on, but when its all said and done and Simmons is a Duck, only SC will/should have a higher ranked class than we will. Especially if you consider team need's, we've filled everything we need other than another stud DT

Yeah I think this summer he was actually at 285, he's a big kid. I don't see to many 300lbs TE running around.

If we can close strong we should rise in the Scout rankings more than in the Rivals rankings (fwiw) because all of our remaining 6 known targets are either 4 or 5 stars on Scout, and equal or less on Rivals.

Jenkins will play TE his whole career at U-dub. As for my opinion (which I doubt most of you would care to hear/read), I'd take UW's class over yours, not by much, but it is really good class. UO's class fits what UO does, but I really like UW's class this year (especially if they didn't lose Joel Willis and Bigelow).

IMO, there are serious concerns about Bigelow's durability.

Time will tell.

I agree, but a healthy Bigelow is the fastest player in this class (and a good runningback). He shouldn't have played this year, and let his knee heal for the whole year. If he can get back to his pre-injury form, it's possible. He's young, growing, and hasn't been in college strength conditioning yet. McGahee came back from something worse and he's better. Technology is probably more advanced now than it was then. It still comes down to Bigelow's body, and how it heals, and deals with punishment. Healthy Bigelow is Jahvid Best deux.

Have to disagree and this isn't me being a homer.

Seferian-Jenkins is an absolute stud and is definitely worthy of being a 5 star recruit. Do you that Kasen Williams is better than George Farmer? Neither do I, but Fetters apparently does.

James Sample is a big time safety. I'm a big fan of Corey Waller. Obviously, Danny Shelton is a really nice addition. Stephan Nembot has monster potential, but he's very raw. Asiata could also be a good one.

UW's class as a whole is solid, but by no means a top class. Seferian-Jenkins is really their only elite recruit, though I'm very high on Waller. Missing out on Brett Hundley was a big blow to UW's recruiting class.
