Re: De'Anthony Thomas picks Oregon!
Definitely looks like it, they did say on twitter that he was crying. Poor guy, probably a really tough decision for him. But he won't regret it, welcome to Oregon De'Anthony!duckydoug wrote:is he crying in that picture?

Yes he was. Doesn't hurt our opinion of him at all.

Yeah, as soon as Oregon puts up about 60 on SC in Eugene he'll realize he made the right decision.

Re: De'Anthony Thomas picks Oregon!
Yea, I'm sure he honestly feels bad about switching so late, especially with his friends playing at SC. That said, I can only imagine all the different ways he could terrorize other teams inside Autzen and I can't wait to hear more about how he ultimately came to his decision. I wonder if it was more Chip staying persistent with him or if Mamba came to it on his own.UOducksTK1 wrote:Definitely looks like it, they did say on twitter that he was crying.

Is the LOI in? Don't want to risk him pulling a double Mamba move.

This class yielded the second and third best California high school football players, both who received serious interest from USC. Think about how that reflects on Oregon's current status as a college football program.
