Rodrigues is 100% to Oregon despite having a close relationship with USC's QB coach.

Can anyone tell me what the Elite 11 (rivals) articles are saying about JR??

It's fast, its precise, and when Chip Kelly has the right quarterback (Dixon, Masoli) at the helm, the possibility of someone ripping off a 60-yard run exists on nearly every play."

Nice to hear he still just doing his thing balling it up at camps. Can't wait for him to play at Oregon.

Sooooooooo does he only need to make one more cut and he's elite 11? how does all this work? Is there 1 guy who "wins" the whole thing?

He is presently at the Elite 11 competition which, with the new math, is 24 players. Historically they have named an overall "winner". I found this link which gives more detail and reports.

I dont have any articles to cite, but I beleive he did not make the cut for the elite 11.

Still a damn good QB and I'm excited to have him, but too bad he didn't make the cut.

The elite 11 comp is already done i thought. Maybe they were just narrowing it down to the actual 11 (since he was in a field of like 22 or something) but i remember he won the award for best feet, so i dunno.

This final camp was where they were narrowing it down to the final list of 11.

Regardless of the hype over this QB or that QB, it appears to me, a mere onlooker, that the Ducks have the deepest queue, in terms of potential, that the Ducks have ever had.

Here's a project for those of you in the know - compare our Bennett-Mariotta-JRod depth to the supposed quality of other PAC-12 lineups.

Agreed that some bias and/or substantially subjective ratings may creep in to your analysis, but I think we as a forum can deal with it and the topic may provoke a lively discussion. Or not. ;)

I think I phrased myself poorly. I believe I read somewhere that he did not make the final 11.
