This is my feeling....

Chip specifically said they had a 4* recruit visit...watched practice... and it intimidated him.


I think it was Simmons
too bad you forgot about the part where Chip was talking about a PRACTICE BEFORE THE SEASON.
I heard him say the same thing DURING THE SEASON also but you were probably on vacation then, right ? Couldn't get to educk for your info that week huh ? :roll:

I know there are going to be a lot of people going after him, but I wonder if Kelly will really push hard for him. He
seems to be happy with the current situation.

I doubt Kelly goes after him honestly. He already said no to Oregon, so I don't see why CK would want him back.

Additionally, I think he'd rather go to Texas Tech anyway, so I think it'll be best for both parties not to try to work things out imo.

Would be nice to have another DT just in case of injury, but I don't believe Oregon will get Simmons.

Even then, there are six on the roster and two incoming. With none of them being seniors.

Pretty sure McQuaw has been practicing at DE but I know he began the year at DT.

We have 5 scholarship DT's next season

Kamp & Koa are both DEs, but both could eventually move inside later in their career.

Not that I disagree with you, but I think I speak for most fans when I say that it would be REALLY nice to get to the point where these types of guys are allowed to get put on the right amount of weight and really work on their game, rather than continually just trying to put on weight so they can play inside.

Not that these are mutually exclusive either, but I'd like to see us getting away from the thought of almost "NEEDING" to move guys that could play inside.
