Re: Another New Commit?
Mitchell has been on multiple trips up to Eugene unofficially. The latest one was for the Nike camp I believe where he got the offer, because he impressed.

Re: Another New Commit?
Basically we cannot track unofficial visits (who knows if a kid comes by with his family in June) so we cannot eliminate any prospects because they haven't visited, correct?MacDuck wrote:I believe Mitchell committed after taking an "unofficial" trip some time last Spring or summer. Same kind of deal with Ethan Grant.maxduck wrote:According to DSA Terrance Mitchell is visiting this weekend and he committed last May. Apparently that rule isn't set in stone.MacDuck wrote:King makes the most sense since he's been here a lot and his mom has checked us out too. He also just stated that we were his leader in a USC post trip interview.
Owa would be very surprising given he's been pretty adament about taking all his trips.
Can't see any players such as Werner, Heimuli, Lattimore etc. who haven't tripped, pulling the trigger. Besides, CK doesn't allow commits unless they have visited.
As for DBs like Mathis, Hill, Stephenson - though they are all coveted prospects, it would surprise me if AJ would be this excited regarding any of them. He used the phrase "happy, happy, happy". Mathis could a possibility sense he just arrived in town, but still feel King makes the most sense.
As for if the rule is "set in stone", you're probably right as very few things in life are.

That would be a transfer, not a commit. Of course you know that and are just messing with us!ncduck wrote:Everyone's sure it's not Bryce Brown or Tahj Boyd?

Re: Another New Commit?
Not necessarily. We are running out of scholarships and he might not want to risk being left out if enough other recruits commit between now and then.UOducksTK1 wrote:That's a though, but that's still a month+ away, doesn't that seem a bit early for spilling the beans to anyone?droop10 wrote:Well the reason he's not releasing the name is because the family didn't want him to yet. That might be because the player in question is announcing at the AA game. Just speculating...I do have a feeling it's King. Just a hunch though.

Great if true! And not surprised at all. King is as close as a duck as any other recruit out there.MerDuck wrote:King and Hill both committed this week.

And if we get Hill, sweet. If not, I'll take Mathis or Stephenson instead.

Re: Another New Commit?
While I would love to believe that the silent commit this referred to was King and Hill, I have to wonder if it was really Derrick Malone? Does anyone know the truth to who this rumor was really about yet?

It will be announced at Autzen press conference tomorrow afternoon!

I think Malone committed this weekend and was not a silent.
