You can't have recruits on the sideline in a neutral field game correct? Cedrick Poutasi is taking one of his official visit's to Eugene btw.

And if anyone is not at least a little concerned that the NCAA investigation is having a dampening effect on recruiting, they are incredibly naive idiots.

Re: Concerned about recruiting?
My only concern has been the same concern for couple of years and that is the lack of being able to land big fast strong defensive lineman. The D line is one we have struggled with a lot. It would be nice to have a year where we are talking bout 4 and 5 star D lineman coming to shore up what seems to be an area that we have struggled with a lot in terms of recruiting. I know and trust the coaches so from the offensive standpoint do not mind.. a whole lot.. but.. if we are going to consistently land in top 10 recruiting to the national pundits... we need to have less 2 and 3 star recruits and more 4 and 5 star recruits. We also need to keep winning. Not all 2 and 3 star recruits end up being diamonds in the rough... nor do all 5 star recruits end up being stars... but... I would guess is a higher percentage of 4 and 5 star recruits playing pro ball... than 2 or 3 star recruits. Just my two cents.

Re: Concerned about recruiting?
Was doing a little research and stumbled upon this guy:
http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/r ... ons-110947
6-5 340 and the #1 OG in the country. Has Oregon on his list among many others.
But the thing that sticks out is that he's from Crespi HS. Yes, the same high school as 3 current ducks.
Bryan Bennett, Hronnis Grassu, and Blake Stanton.
Maybe one of those guys could tour him on a visit to Oregon (if it ever happens).
Grassu having success at Oregon this early should show that he can get early PT, but I doubt any recruit looks that in-depth about a school

Yeah, it doesn't seem that much of a stretch to see us landing him and Murphy. We could have a phenomenal O-Line class this year.

Re: Concerned about recruiting?
Simmons transferred to Crespi after Bennett, Grassu, Stanton were gone so that connection isn't there. We do have a great shot with Simmons though, it is between us and USC most likely.

Going to miss the Maehl Man

Re: Concerned about recruiting?
Do we have a shot with Murphy? If he liked the visit, i would LOVE to land both him and Simmons, and thats not even talking about how we have basically a 50/50 shot at landing Banner and Garnett, which is AWESOME. That would be 2 great OG's and 2 elite OT's...

Oregon was Grasu’s “top choice” coming out of Crespi High in Encino, Calif., largely owing to UO offensive line coach Steve Greatwood’s reputation in the eyes of Crespi’s coach, Jeremiah Ross, and other players from the area who played for the Ducks, including Charlie Carmichael.
From a good article about Grasu http://www.registerguard.com/web/sports ... r.html.csp
