Ducks recruiting Griffy jr's son

Post by Bigducker »

Interesting... He's got the linage. His Dad could sure catch. I remember a tremendous catch Jr made as a 19 yr old. Come to Oregon and play both sports Trey.

Trey's video - watching it the one thing that stands out is how he catches the ball at the high point, especially on deep balls rather than waiting for it to come down to his waist. Still needs route work, but so does every hs wr.

Looks like a dead ringer for his dad. Would be kind of interesting to see if he does look our way. He would still have ties to the NW since his dad is working with the Mariners as a consultant.

He very well could look to play baseball too if he wanted, had the lineage.

If he can use a bat at all like his Dad, let him take a swing at it!

I hope he and Dungy's dad have the who's dad is more famous debate. Seriously though, who didn't love Griffey when he was still Junior?

It's funny because in the past, I'd love to have a player like this just because his name would attract attention. But now, I really don't care about famous player's kids who are recruits. Gimmie quality character kids who are gonna help us win.

I'm actually really really curious to see how Eric Dungy does at UO. Of all the players on our roster, I'm really interested to see how his career plays out.

I actually think that Dungy could carve out a nice career at Oregon as a possession receiver. He's going to need to gain more weight and improve his blocking, but he showed that he has good hands and runs the right routes in the spring game.

Does anybody know if Snoop Dogg's son has any interest still in Oregon and if so how much. I think it was him that was high on Oregon a few years ago, I'm not sure how old he even is now.

i know for almost certain that snoop dogs son, the one who is in the same grade as DAT, is now going to UO because DAT (supposedly one of his best friends) is coming.

edit: would be sick as hell to see snoop on our side lines at Autzen this year..

It would be kind of cool to have the sons of Dungy, Snoop, and Griffey on one team. The buzz of seeing them at games would be tremendous.

Do I remember right that part of USC's punishment from the NCAA was a restriction on Celebrity side line guests?

I don't think Chip would be stupid to allow them to roam the sidelines, but having them in the stands or a luxury box would still create a lot of buzz.

guests AT PRACTICE. if your dad happens to be famous and is on the sidelines during the game, then there is nothing wrong. PLEASE read people.
