De'Anthony Thomas switching from USC to Oregon?

[GoDuckYourself]

If this is all based on what Hellen of Troy said then this is highly suspect. I'm not going to hold my breath, at least we can be excited he came on a visit.

Sorry Phalanx, after the NC game I just figured it was a shot at our Oline, not our RB depth.

[buckmarkduck]

No, it's based on Scott Schroeder word, he runs the SC 247 site and has been around recruiting forever.

It was not that long ago that USC had as many as 8-10 4/5 star running backs in the stable at one time.

Haha, I just reread my original post and realized how it was misunderstood. It's all good, brother. I'm glad if the dude signs, I just hate reading news articles later like we have with Seastrunk. Ideally, Thomas would give RB a shot, and if he wasn't the next Barry Sanders, he would switch back to CB where he would definitely get PT.

Wow. This would certainly be an impressive turn of events. Are we going to have to wait until LOI's are sent or will there be an indication prior to that?

[Boom]

So has anyone actually got any type of conformation? Has this kid even visited?

Is it wrong that I'm not really excited about this because I'm too worried about trying to land a DT?

Incredibly wrong haha. This is probably the happiest I've ever been in recruiting. Thomas is a game changer, similar to Cliff Harris. Having him on the field actually is the difference between a win and a loss.

He would be the best recruit in Oregon history, tied with Ngata IMO.

Where do u guys think he would end up if he came here......i think slot for some reason but what do i know

This sounds too good to be true. We seem to have our fill at WR and I doubt he'd be coming here to play as a DB.

My bet is they'll find a spot for him somehow hahaha. This dude would be one of the biggest recruits in UO history.

Would be the biggest coup since Haloti, maybe even bigger. I'm going to side on him staying at SC until he actually signs his LOI.

I just watched his highlights, and now I understand the excitement if this is true!

We still need a DT though!
