Re: 2011 anyone?
Any word on why he dropped UW already? They are pretty young and deep at WR but if his Dad played at UW, I'm not sure if they'd ever be completely out.RHDuck wrote:UofO8 wrote:I want this kid bad after watching his vid. Can flat out play!

Actually I work with his uncle, what he has told me is UW is out of it already and that his top three right now is Oregon, Cal, and Florida. His mom went with him on an unofficial to Eugene and she loved it, so she is pushing him there. But its still very early.
This would be a huge get for us considering we've really had trouble getting the big time HS WR's. His size would be a perfect fit in our system and I think we'll see more balance in our offense as we transition from Masoli to Thomas/Bennett. They have more pocket potential.

Re: 2011 anyone?
At 6-5 235, if he were to put on another 15 pounds, with his speed and athleticism he would make a nice DE. I've heard that Coleman will play as a big safety but its time we start putting our big athletes on the defensive side of the ball.

Re: 2011 anyone?
I actually don't care where we put him.
There are football players and then there are kids that can be effective at certain positions. Lyerla, like James Wilder Jr. seems like a football player. Lets get these kids, throw pads on em and let em run around and see where they play the best.
With the depth that we're starting to develop we have the privilege and ability to let these kids excel wherever they fit best, rather than where we need them.
DE, LB, S, TE, WR, OT. Wherever Colt, et al are best is where I'd like to see them.
That said... We're gonna start to need LBs sooner rather than later, hopefully we can lock a few up and let my plan workout w/ Lyerla and Wilder Jr. and the rest of the studs that we're undoubtedly going to get in this next cycle!

Re: 2011 anyone?
I have only seen Lyerla play one game, the state championship game against Jeff, and of course I have seen "The Catch" highlight several times.
He seemed to me from that one game to be a nightmare match-up as a wideout. With his height and those springs for legs he is a huge mismatch for they typical 5'10" corner backs in the league. And the blocking mismatches, yowsa.
I have visions of he and White blocking a bubble screen for one of our army of speadster TZR/RBs.

From what I've heard/read we're definately in the picture, but he's not married to staying in the state and will consider us just like any of his other offers. There will be competition.DarronThomas1 wrote:What's our standing with Brennan Scarlett? DE likely a 4*, on the espnu 150 watch list.

Re: 2011 anyone?
I think it just has to do with the situation that the football program is in right now. Even for his family it isn't very attractive. I will talk to my friend on Sunday and see if I can get any new info on him though.PDXShogun wrote:Any word on why he dropped UW already?

Re: 2011 anyone?
I'm already making an effort on the 2011 class, I have a good source really close to Lyerla, so I'll be following him closely.
Can we do even better than this year's class?
