Re: chris mccain?
Everyone does need to settle down. OK here's what went down.
After the AAA game, Gabe basically said he was all Cal, and Chris McCain wasn't happy. He was really upset and wasn't even sure if he wanted to be a duck. Obviously he was overreacting because of the bad news.
But lately, I've heard he's fine now and he's still a duck. DT just did a piece on him maybe less than a week ago(?) that said he was still all Oregon.
So I was definitely nervous about him a few weeks ago, but I didn't think I should share it because I knew he was just saying things because he was mad. Definitely understandable IMO. But he should be fine now unless something new has happened.

Some of these guys probably like the attention, but I'm sure others don't. If we lose some of these guys, I'm blaming web stalkers, not the coaches, but these damn freaks that harass the crap out of these recruits.

Still, its seeming like with every passing moment, the sh*t's rolling down hill faster and faster. We NEED to keep McClain, but him changing, w/ how things are going wouldn't shock me anymore...

Chris McCain said NA visited his family and Scales' family and said, "I'm just real excited for signing day, and I am 100% a Duck. I'll be in Eugene sometime next year."

Re: chris mccain?
Awesome! Even better. Kinda feels weird to actually breathe about 1 recruit... Too bad that he can't get into school before next winter. Hopefully he develops as fast as the rest of these guys in this class, but we could certainly use his athleticism sooner rather than laterUOducksTK1 wrote:From DT on January 22nd:glazeduck wrote:Good to hear.

ya i think he was a bit annoyed lolgofightingducks wrote:What happened he was so pumped about the Ducks and was recruiting other players. He sure didn't seem too excited in your conversation. Of course maybe he was just annoyed someone he didn't know was asking unwanted questions. That would surely suck to lose him.

It's not that big of a deal. Every team has fans. I'm sure MDM isn't the only person who has asked him about his decision. Lets all take a breath and hope for a strong finish.

If anyone is mad at mdm for talking to McCain on his facebook, please go see what Nebraska fans have done to Owa's facebook page. Pretty annoying if you ask me..

Re: chris mccain?
Exactly, and some of us whine when a few kids turn it into a game to misdirect us. Between coaches,fans,and these recruiting website interviewers their life is bombarded and everything they say is spun 4 directions. I doubt these kids know what they are getting into untill it is too late and personally I do not blame them for playing back.aduck4ever wrote:It's not a violation and these kids know exactly what there doing when they accept friend requests.
I think they like the attention some of the bigger recruits like Lache Seastrunk have 3,287 all telling him to go to there school. And I have seen lots of people from here.
Just remember they have to accept you to post on there wall and if it bothered them they can easily delete you.

Re: chris mccain?
Man, that's a horrible response. Definitely no emotion or sign that McCain is 'all' Oregon. Who knows, this class is still awesome, with or without Chris.
