5 star DT Moala likes Oregon

I do not have a link, but there was a discussion on Suh a while back on e-yuck that specifically addressed this discrepancy, and it was mentioned that the Oregon Dept. of Education specifically divided the engineering, Liberal Arts, and medical studies between the various locales, to prevent redundancy, especially between 2 programs 45 minutes apart... IMO, this would tend to lower the potential for excellence by eliminating competition.

Mediocrity sucks.

+1. you have to remember this division of what school gets what degree happened decades ago. for it to change, it has to go through the legislature.

That's what you get when you have a government run by people who don't know anything about anything.

Yep ^^^

Haha well isn't this a coincidence. I love in the Sac area, and Grant always has a good football team. In fact, i think they play the HS i went to in one of the openers this next season. My dad was telling me the other day they had some damn good players this year that were being highly recruited, but i did not know it was to this extent.

I don't know if its been said yet, but could you imagine if we had Ricki Hemieli(sp) and Moala on the line together in a couple years.. SWEET!!

Studying mechanical engineering and playing football is a pipe dream.

Ndamukong Suh pulled it off (which is why he went to Nebraska instead of Oregon).

I know he chose Nebraska for that reason, but if I remember correctly, he ended up getting a degree in a related field but one not as academically challenging as engineering.
