I don't think time is the issue. I think there was enough time for him to sell players. He just didn't close.
so two months to put a staff together then scramble to get kids to visit, no way was there enough time.
Lets see what happens with a year to build a bond with recruits. Not sure there is a staff out that could
have done better...
Well for some evidence Tom Herman was hired before Taggart and has ended having a worse class than Oregon... They have the 33rd best class on Rivals.. Your Texas... a recruiting hotbed with tradition. How do you screw up that?

Not a bad class for having, what, 50 days. Put a winning/competitive product on the field will help a lot. Its better than last years and done in a very short amount of time. For now I'm going to trust these guys to figure it out. This next year is our litmus test.

Many of those days were in the dead period too.

Because Texas' class is only 18, that's why it's ranked so low. Texas would be tied with us if they kept the exact same star-average and had 24 players. We're exactly tied with Texas in terms of talent.

Great then. I mean, imagine if the roles were reversed and we were in Austin and them in Eugene.

I believe that of the 50-60 days Taggart had at Oregon, he only had about 17 days that were fully open, many of which they were short-handed as a staff. That is what makes the class so remarkable.

No dout! Give the man credit where it's due. That comment about Taggart not closing...c'mon. Taggart and crew did an amazing job with time they had.

Does anyone know what happened with Lang? He visited SC, Colorado and us...if they couldn't get him into SC is it possible that we could still end up with him?

That's odd...they have it listed on 247 that he visited us on the 13th. Not sure how updated those are though...was just curious as to his status.

247 hasn't updated their lists completely so don't believe everything you read over there. The only other known visit he made was to CU. If he'd made it to Eugene, it wouldn't have stayed silent, considering all the other guys they had visiting that weekend.

I have never seen anything that confirmed Lang came. If he did, nobody seems to know about it. My guess is no.

Gotta give USC credit, as much as I hate to. They really cleaned up.

Took them both...guessing G Johnson is next to SC. So much for the dude calling 72 hours to meltdown for them.
They must have meant a meltdown for Oregon fans. DT is just unreadable with how negative it is due to all the misses. SC absolutely cleaned everyone's clocks in the final weeks, especially Oregon since they went hard after a lot of long-shots.
Oregon may have went hard after a few of the guys late, but only Falo was a real miss. The others were a Hail Mary at best. Agree?
Yep. However, in years past, those guys wouldn't even trip. This year, they at least contemplated us....
