Chris visited Oregon along with his 4 NC high school teammates (the same school Remene Alston went to)

Darron Thomas showed him and the other guys around.

"Yeah I do have a top 5 right now. Oregon, Cal, Maryland, Syracuse, Louisville, in that order are my current top 5. Oregon and Cal are neck and neck for 1 and 2, but right now Oregon is on top."

6-foot-7!?

Is he really projected as a LB?

That is pretty ridiculous. Imagine the fear he'd put into opposing backfields.

He wants to visit with his family, so that's awesome news.

Just watch. The Ducks would convert him to TE or WR...

BTW, what's his vertical?Could be intriguing to have him in the backfield trying to block PATs...

WR Dion Jordan, WR Lavasier Tuinei, and TE Chris McCain.

Anyone want to play some basketball?

:lol: I'm bored.

Brian Urlacher is only 6' 4" according to the Bear's site. 6' 7" is unreal for LB. If he can move that big ol frame fast/well enough in traffic, that is awesome.

Ed "Too Tall" Jones was 6'9", according to his Wikipedia page at least...

Of course, Ed played defensive end for the Cowboys, which is the position McCain will most likely end up at in college.

I would imagine that McCain will end up playing weakside DE unless he can really move. 6'7 is really uncommon to see on the defensive side of the ball unless the player is on the Dline.

At 4.7/4,75 in the 40, he's not bad, but sounds more suited for line play than at backer.
