Man, I feel for the kid. There was a lot of emotion in his voice. Obviously a tough decision to move away from his life for 18 years, friends and family. I have a lot of respect for him. Its not easy to disappoint so many and follow your heart. He'll be a great DUCK!!!

To bad it wasn't Barry sanders. That we he could tell his son that Oregon would fit him perfectly. That kid is already a freak!!!
What year is Barry's son? I had no idea he had a son who was a big-time prospect.

Thanks. I haven't looked at next season's prospects yet. I tend to let this year's class sit in for a bit, but it doesn't take me long to start looking at who is out there :lol:

Baby DT. That article said that's what the guys in Oregon called him and he seems to be okay with that. Such an emotional speech for him.

my only concern now is keeping him. Hopefully there are enough Cali kids that he doesn't feel too homesick.

Honestly I'm concerned with Lache leaving than DAT. DAT will be fine.

I hope he doesn't, but would not be overly surprised if it occurred. Lache has all the tools to be a great player at Oregon, hopefully he doesn't lose sight of that.

Would be less concerned if LMJ would have left.
Remember, remember, the Fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot. I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot... But what of the man? I know his name was Guy Fawkes and I know, in 1605, he attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament. But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world. I've witnessed first hand the power of ideas. I've seen people kill in the name of them, and die defending them. But you cannot kiss an idea; cannot touch it, or hold it. Ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain, they do not love... And it is not an idea that I miss //////// Follow me one Tumblr/blog http://f***-kp.tumblr.com/

Why would Lache leave? DT jr wants to play cb(at least that is what someone was sayin last night I thought). If Lache is that good....he will find the field in one way or another. If CK doesnt put him on the field...he isnt that good or he isnt ready.
