All poly players to ASU

Post by UOducksTK1 »

OK not literally, but it feels like that. Four guys From Poly High School just committed to ASU, and a 5th is expected (Rowe).

Reminds me of the De lasalle four Oregon pulled in.

Reminds you of what?

The 4 De La Salle players were blue chips, these guys are scrubs.

Stop it.

(Cough, Cough) Should I pass this to you so that you can relax? He's only talking about how a bunch of players from the same school committed to play together in college. Not comparing their playing abilities.

And the 5th one with the least hype ended up being better than all the rest and was a 2nd round draft pick last year. Rankings don't mean much at this point in time and it's still a great school to have connections with in L.A.

That 5th guy has a familiar last name for Ducks fans. Kenny Rowe went to the same school, so I'm curious if there's any relation to Matthew.

I'd like to see another Kenny Rowe type player on the Ducks in the future. Kenny was a stud.

colvin's career was marred by injuries.
jack was the truth but got into wayyyyy too much trouble down there (lol) and had to transfer.
willie glasper also dealt with injuries... got hurt his sr year before he could be a starter.
and terrance kelly (RIP) never even made it to eugene.

TJ Ward... a walk on, ended up being better than all of them.

I'm not trying to pile on any of the DLS 4 or anything but if the Poly players can stay healthy at ASU for at least 3 years, they will be a lot more productive than the DLS 4 ever were.

....Stop it.

Kenny's brother is an undersized LB, and from what I understand our coaches aren't in a hurry to offer him. We are stacked at LB and have been doing great at landing some studs there the last few years, the staff will be picky with who they take there this year.

Like Elduderino said, I wasn't necessarily comparing talent level. More to the fact that 5 guys from one school are headed to a Pac-10 school (Just like the UO with DeLasalle).

But certainly, I think Richard Smith is the only player ASU landed that the Ducks would even consider offering.
