Top prospects in Town

[bigsugarduck]

Sure seem like there are a lot of our top recruits in town right now or recently.

Those in the know, who are they and what kind of rumblings/reactions have be mentioned. Sounded like Mariota met with Chip today, and Tacoi Sumler was here...who else?

[UOducksTK1]

Well duckterritory is reporting about 5-6 guys are visiting.. The only one I had already known about was Sumler. He's visiting right now.

OH and I should mention that all the sacramento dudes from Grant HS are here. Nate actually met with some of them..

Moala is the one to keep an eye on. Landing him would be SICK!

Dude I don't even think "SICK" is good enough if we actually landed him . Him & Heimuli would be unbelievable. With the talent & depth we have at all the other positions, the offense would maybe have to take a back seat to the defense as being our "strength".

Folau, the 5'10/255 FB would possibly be ranked if he concentrated on American Football, and dropped Rugby.

Since the guy is doing both, he is probably tough as nails.

If Folau wants to continue with rugby, going to Cal is probably his best bet.

I heard Hundley is in the NW, is he coming to UO?

I'm guessing you saw it on his facebook? Because he said he's going to Washington there. Otherwise, I have no clue. There's been no mention about him visiting Oregon anywhere.

Man Mariota and Hundley getting feelers from Udub. Lol they are clearly just going after the same QBs as us because they're tired of us having Dixon, Joey, Clemens, Masoli, etc.. While they are stuck with busts like Locker. Smart move by Sark.

I thought Hundley already visited Eugene back in early June.

Am I having delusions again? Should I increase my dosage?

Yeah he already did, which is why it wouldn't make sense for him to visit here again so soon. He's going to Washington right now.

[Sooth]

oh ok, thanks.

I was fearing for my mind again.

It worries me with all the overblown media attention Locker is getting from the national media that some of the QBs might start thinking there is something for them in Washington. Someone should sharply remind them that Locker has never been to a bowl game.

Over-hyped media combined with sleazy Sark is a dangerous blend.

Sark, I'm sure learned a lot of sneaky tricks from Cheaty Petey.. .. I'm still really upset about Mariota not commiting to us after visiting the little puppies. I want to hammer them even more this year. !!

Although I don't understand why Locker is getting the amount of love he is receiving from the media, calling him a bust is a little ridiculous. The guy is extremely athletic and as much as I hate to admit it, may develop into a better pro player than any of our recent Duck QBs who have been in the NFL. The scouts seem to think so, for whatever that is worth. I think most Duck fans would have loved to have him on our team. He would have been a bigger, faster, and stronger version of Masoli.

He has won 8 games in over 3 years as a starter (granted he did miss half a season in 2008). That's horrible. Coming out of high school he was supposed to be the savior of the Washington program, and clearly he has NOT lived up to that role. Whether you want to play poor coaching, or just a bad surrounding team, the fact is he hasn't lived up to the hype whatsoever.

I'm not talking about what Locker's NFL potential is... I'm talking about how his college career has gone so far, and in my eyes, he has been a big time bust for the Huskies. This is his last year at redemption.

Dan Fouts was only 15-17 as a starter for some really bad Duck teams but he set 19 school records in the process. At the time, he was not considered a bust, rather picked pretty high in the draft on his way to the NFL hall of fame. I could see locker getting 6-7 wins to add to his 8, get drafted pretty high and doing well in the NFL where he will have an O-line in front of him.
