am i the only one the remembers small talk of this guy having interest in the ducks multiple times during this recruiting cycle but it being quickly shot down. because of that it makes this a little less shocking. but don't get me wrong, im still shocked, just a lil less.

I remember there being some interest but most just saw it as normal interest that most recruits have when they first start getting recruited. I always thought he would end up at USC due to location and tradition of SC keeping 5* players from LA in town.

well, i think the only recruit that could have been more shocking is clowney, which certainly speaks to where the program is now

In the thread about the E-Duck surprise tease, when people were throwing out Clowney and others in jest, my ridiculous joking entry was going to be Black Mamba, but I got lazy and decided not to post it. Shucks, I could have come back now and said I was serious the whole time and I'm a real insider. Opportunity lost.

lol, I felt the same way when my friend swore to me that he heard from Pete Carroll's dad that he was leaving SC for the Seahawks. Then about a month later, sure enough, it happened haha.

ha! i closed the window so i don't have the name anymore!

i was just following twitter links around and there were a bunch of people following this guy including some people i follow for cfb, but that doesn't mean it's credible.

like i said, no reason to believe it, but could be true. also saw that it could be better at UO from a personal standpoint...

Done deal that Thomas will remain with USC or go to Oregon? Not sure what you are hinting at regarding "it could be better at UO from a personal standpoint".
