Oregon will probably take one RB this class? DJ would be a keeper.

Cool TK. I would prefer a big back but I certainly would not turn this guy down, besides he might make one hell of a WR for us!

Awesome we in his final group!

Imo, Foster is one of the best athletes in the country and would be a huge pickup for Oregon. I think it will likely come down to Oregon and USC. His high school teammate Cyrus Hobbi signed with USC last year. Foster has mentioned numerous times that he wants to play in the spread offense. While he may be listed as a RB, I could definitely see him playing WR/slot at Oregon.

He'd probably be another good choice for the TZR position, along with Barner and DaT.

Yah, i've always thought/heard this guy was more of a WR than a RB. Maybe i'm wrong, but he seems to have that taller and slimmer build that usually WR's have.

Ya he looks like a tazr back. If he wants to play for a spread team then Oregon is the right place for him to land. Best spread Offence in the country.

Ok, I'm going to disagree with most of you. His pass catching is way beyond most running backs so yes he could play Wide Receiver or TSZ, but this guy has running back mentality and skills. He runs between the tackles with aggression. On outside runs he turns the ball up field as soon as possible. His style is LMJ. Great moves in the open field but all business hitting the hole. And 6'0 185 as a high school junior is not slender. He has Barner's body build now but could easily come out of high school in the 190s. The guy runs hard and breaks tackles.

The great thing about him though is depending on how Carson and DAT and ? develop you could you play him at RB/TSZ/WR as he has the established skill sets for all three.

I told you guys this a while ago

It was a two horse race with ASU and Oregon
People claimed we were recruiting him as an WR but we aren't
ASU and Oregon are really giving him a shot first at RB before a WR flip or something
USC came back into the race when they lost a WR recruit
Right now his list is like
1) Oregon/Arizona
3) USC
And I haven't heard anything at all about Auburn for him
I like our chances with him

Any offensive highlights? I can only find the defensive ones.
