Could be good for us if that's the case... Or maybe he's just mulling the decision over longer. I guess we'll find out tomorrow now won't we?

I think the longer he waits to make the decision, the worse it becomes for us.

Yeah very strange tweet. Who knows if it's at all legitimate.

The point of the tweet above is that if he went to the ESPN Zone to announce it would most likely be to reconfirm with USC.

No announcement = higher odds of going to Oregon.


Also, people are trying to read into Oregon's 1pm announcement from CK to mean that DT won't come here because of a 5pm announcement from DT coinciding with a 5:30pm USC announcement. (I know, run-on).

What they seem to conveniently not mention is that this is Chip we're talking about. He probably had this on his calendar as a 1pm deal for a long time and not even Chuck Norris could get him to bend his will.

How do you know he hasn't made his decision yet? All we know is that he hasn't announced his decision.

I agree with this. If he's not actually going to announce there, I think he's coming to Oregon.

Since Chuck Norris wears footed Chip Kelly PJs, we know who is in control of that relationship.

Chip Kelly won't have a heart attack because even his heart refuses to attack him. Chip is in control of all relationships.

Per Greg Biggins

"Of course we can't sign off without one last DeAnthony Thomas (Los Angels, Calif./Crenshaw) note. The update as of 6 p.m. ET is that Thomas will sign with Oregon. USC coaches are still fighting the fight but Thomas has told both staffs what he plans to do and right now, it appears the Ducks will pull off one of the biggest recruiting shockers in the last few years."

Sounds good but I'll believe it when I see it tomorrow.

great news, now you better be right biggins.

If that happens, wow. Just wow.

I know USC was pushing him to play defense,and by reports he wanted to play RB, If oregon simply said, "You can play anywhere you want to play." That could be a huge pull for a young kid.

I've read he prefers to play DB and really, with our recent track record with the D-Boyz in both college and the pros in addition to Coach Neal, playing corner for us is a pretty enticing oppurtunity as well.

I like Biggins.

Wow its what we thought and hoped for now we just needs to see how this goes tomorrow.

^Great news on him wanting to play DB because if he's open to it, it sounds like the best fit for him.
