So....

[dthomas=ddixon]

Usually they day before a guy announces there's a lot of rumblings & whispers. Is there anything on Lache floating around? I think we've all assumed that he'll be a Duck for awhile, especially with Auburn & LSU supposedly not recruiting him anymore. And I have a really hard time seeing him going to Memphis. So should we just assume the worst so we're not dissapointed or can we start to get excited about Lache being a Duck?

MOPs was tweeted that Baylor had a in-home with LAche last night and it went well.

If he's tempted by a big 12 also-ran...then best of luck to him.

^BAYLOR...please can they really compete with in recruiting? My God I hope not!

Lache does want to win right?

No where in MOPS tweets over the past few days has he said anything about an in-home with Baylor. He did just tweet/ask Fecta where he heard something about Baylor and said it would be news to him.

The way things are going, my gut feeling is that he won't choose the ducks. Then again, my gut is usually wrong when it comes to recruiting.

Honestly -- and this is not a "the sky is falling" type post...

Prepare for the worst. It has clearly been an awful week for Oregon recruiting, and regardless of what the rumors have been, we've been burned too many times for me to get my hopes to high up.

I wouldn't be shocked, especially since we haven't heard anything new for a long, LONG time (not even from his gf... apparently KSmack decided to take this week off) about Lache coming here.

In planning for the worst: we still might get Ethan Grant back, and luckily Lache is similar enough to LMJ, Barner, etc. that losing out on him wouldn't be THAT devastating. If we get the best, he's a duck and will take our offense to another level quickly.

Not to be a downer, but, like w/ the Owa and King situations, until I see them physically pick up another hat and announce to the world that they're going elsewhere (or here) I think anything can happen. Seems like w/ our string of bad luck, it would behoove us to prepare for another kick to the nuts and be happy if it doesn't happen.

This is my mentality haha. I have gotten my hopes up far too much over time, and then proceeded to get them blown up in my face. I shall believe it when i actually see it.

For the record and I think we'd all agree, Lache would be huge for recruiting and chest pumping but he won't make or break our FB team we are in great shape at RB/TZR!

I more worried about many other positions...on defense!

At this point, Lache would be a luxury if we get Grant. If we don't get Lache or Grant this year, I bet we go after 2 RBs next year because we only lose Alston after next year and Kelly would probably like to have 5 scholarship RBs on the roster instead of just 4.

Here's the latest on Lache & Grant:

1. It has been confirmed that he had an in-home with Baylor coaches last night. From the Baylor perspective it went real well. Is he seriously considering going there? Who knows, but it's only 35 miles from home and you know momma probably likes that.
2. LSU has NOT stopped recruiting LS and some say they're are a serious threat
3. there are insiders with excellent reps that still say Oregon is where they expect him to go.

I think if he keeps his announcement tomorrow that bodes well for us. However, it would not shock at all if he postpones it.

Grant: he is not coming here. Confirmed he is solid with TCU.

Thanks MacDuck. Thats the thing that has me worried. Is he actually going to choose tommorrow? If he does he's a Duck. If not?... thats not good.
