Re: Good news vs bad news
Yeah, it's my understanding that the dropping of UNC WASN'T the good news. That it was more of just an extra bonus.
The "good news" was said to be better than the bad news -- which hasn't even been confirmed that it was Grant leaving, although that's a pretty solid assumption.
So according to the source, whatever the "good news" is, it's better than the bad of Grant leaving...

I hear that the source of the good news just saved a bunch of money on his car insurance.

What good news? Where did this come from? Until someone can confirm anything it's just rumor.

Re: Good news vs bad news
Im almost positive that the "good news" on rivals isnt about Lattimore eliminating UNC. If I had to guess its about at least two four stars committing.

I believe that was DT's good news last night if I read the posts correctly. The good news is most certainly a commit, though I think its on the defensive side.
What droop said.
A lot of decisions will be during the AAA game, so I'm not sure what the good news couild be other than Troy Hill who is planning to decide this week (I think even tomorrow).
Dunno though.

Wish that darn AAA game wasn't a month away! I love the energy that recruiting news brings to this board.UOducksTK1 wrote:^^^droop10 wrote:Thinking of 2 different sites.

Re: Good news vs bad news
Imagine the recruiting buzz we could still have if we win the Rose Bowl. There are a ton of recruits playing in the AAA game that are heavily considering Oregon. A win in the Rose Bowl could really help us maintain or even gain momentum for their commitments.HomeFieldAdvantage wrote:Wish that darn AAA game wasn't a month away!

I want to see Kenny Rowe and Eddie Pleasant in TP's grill all day long...
If that doesn't get a defensive recruit's blood boiling, nothing will.

However, according to rivals, members on our site are claiming they have "good news" which seems to be a commit.
I'm not a rivals member, so I don't know what they are claiming.

Re: Good news vs bad news
They aren't giving out names on Rivals right now at the request of the family of at least one commit. Not sure if there are other commits, but my guess is there are and they just aren't ready to announce just yet for one reason or another.

Re: Good news vs bad news
Just curious...I understand and respect the wishes of the players and families not to be named...but if you commit for a program, why would you want to wait til the AAA game or signing day to come out about it?

Re: Good news vs bad news
Wow, now you really have me confused... Hmmm, not about a commit, could the good news be about a transfer?

Notice the plane that we flew on?

Maybe they like the publicity and attention? Would be pretty normal of an 18 year old to want to be on TV when he makes his pick.shear_j wrote:Just curious...I understand and respect the wishes of the players and families not to be named...but if you commit for a program, why would you want to wait til the AAA game or signing day to come out about it?
