Landing the best players in WA over the Huskies will never get old. Hopefully he pans out.

Finally a really good LB class. We need LBs. And this kid is a dude. Might end up being our best LB since Kiko. Brandon Huffman thinks he could end up being our best ILB ever. He’s really high on him.

Watched a bit of his commit video. Announced as a "gender reveal" style cake with a green and yellow center. Made me laugh and, bonus, no fires, no plane crashes, and no one had to die.

Love this get. Kiko feels like a great comparison in his play.

The UA DC has already came out and said he’s trying to get him to understand how to read a play, and get him under control to run the D. Basically sounding the exact same as he was here. Just a million miles an hour the wrong direction, and then celebrating after every play.

Checking out Platt's Hudl - https://www.hudl.com/profile/12373033/Brayden-Platt
The things I notice are that he's got quick feet (definitely not a strider watching his RB H/L's), he uses his arms exceptionally well to disengage blockers and that he gets into the body of the ball carrier which all lead to him making some pretty violent hits from short-area bursts. I didn't see a single tackle where he dropped his shoulder rather than wrapping up properly.

Honestly this is a really good class. Just need an elite recruit or two and we'll have a top 7 class.

Dudes like Platt would qualify as elite in virtually any past Oregon lb corps.

If we have hope of being too 4 in Big10 we need guys like that and this.
