Well, on Brandon's Goducks page it says he has 6 brothers and googling Stetson shows he went to the same HS as Brandon.

My magic 8 ball says...yes.

Hopefully he is as productive as his brother. Any idea on how highly regarded he is?

As Brandon has 6 brothers, that is a reasonable assumption... And even though Stetson (Assuming that is indeed the case) doesn't sport a flashy star rating, if he is anything like BB, there will be no lack of effort or coachability on his part.

Since both graduated from South Fremont HS in Idaho, I would say it is almost a certainty.

If he plays like his brother, then definitely, I will like him!

Welcome to the party, Stetson!

Not very. Ended up at a JC in Iowa (don't think its the same one as Ebert) and he's 6'8" 265 according to that bio but you never know how up to date some of those are. One of the problems Brandon had with his height at DT was always working on keeping his pad level and hands low because every so often he'd get flagged for it. I always thought he played better as a %tech DE; seems to me with that length he'd make a better fit at DE similar to Dion's length but I imagine he'll spend a year in the system before trying to break into the rotation wherever there's a need.

He is now 6'8", 265 and he ran sprints and hurdles in high school? Maybe not the best times but it demonstrates pretty good quickness and agility for a D lineman.

So is this a "diamond in the rough" move, a "we loved your brother, so why not?" move, or a "oh crap, we reaaaaly aren't looking good with our other D-Line recruits and we had better get something while we still can" move?

Well, lots of rumors that Arik Armstead committed to Cal over the weekend so maybe we had a slot open up. Wonder if Bair will be here for spring ball?

247 confirms Bair is a bro... Also had this tidbit (Sounds like the position was pretty much his from the get-go...):

http://oregon.247sports.com/Board/45/Ba ... -6159423/1

"Oregon sent me out here (Iowa Western) after I got back from my mission," Bair said. "I went on my mission out of high school and I've been playing here for a year. I was a couple of credits short coming out of high school which is why I had to go to a junior college. When I get to Oregon I will have four years to play three."

"[his fiance] graduated from Weber State which is why they offered. Utah just offered recently as well. I haven't been sending out my film or anything to any schools. It doesn't matter though, I'm going to Oregon, that's always been the plan."

Sounds like Oregon found out about him from possibly his brother and decided to kind of hide him until he was eligible to be recruited. I wouldn't be surprised if they use his redshirt and then play him starting in 2013.

He told Justin that he's up to 275 from working out with his brother. Get him on campus and put 20lbs on him, which shouldn't be hard since he's so tall. FWIW this is the same JC we tried to sent the QB to last year who ended up at LSU even thought he couldn't get into UO. And I think it's the same JC Ebert went to, so we must have a good relationship with the coaches. Watching his film he has a great first step, and yes it is JC, but the oline couldn't block him 1 on 1.
