No, they just updated stars of the recruits we have.

Randall now a four, and Mariota is the #43 QB now.

Re: Commit on Talefeathers?
TK what were they before?
Stewart Mandel-"From a purely aesthetic standpoint, I much prefer to watch a good spread-rushing offense over a traditional Power-I offense, and Oregon's has been the most fun by far for the past several years. It's fast, its precise, and when Chip Kelly has the right quarterback (Dixon, Masoli) at the helm, the possibility of someone ripping off a 60-yard run exists on nearly every play."

Re: Commit on Talefeathers?
Randall was a 3 star, and #17 QB I believe. And Mariota wasn't ranked.bigsugarduck wrote:TK what were they before?
Andre Y dropped from #7 to #16. And Coleman stayed the same.
I don't remember what Kamp was before though, sorry.

Kamp was 3 star... note that they've changed AY's position.

Re: Commit on Talefeathers?
Andre was actually moved from the #9 guard to the #17 tackle. Not sure why the move for him in their rankings.

Somebody must have noticed that Andre failed to give the Fuskies proper consideration.

Me neither, not to mention he deserves a higher ranking at tackle anyway. #17 is criminal.buckmarkduck wrote:Andre was actually moved from the #9 guard to the #17 tackle. Not sure why the move for him in their rankings.

Re: Commit on Talefeathers?
Not sure of about the specifics this year, but generally there is (much) more talent at the OT position than OG. If this is holds true for this years class, it would make that Andre would move down in the rankings as he is being measured against better players.UOducksTK1 wrote:Me neither, not to mention he deserves a higher ranking at tackle anyway. #17 is criminal.buckmarkduck wrote:Andre was actually moved from the #9 guard to the #17 tackle.

Am I the only one who care less about the stars and more about the player. If they can play, they can play, who cares how many stars they have.

Re: Commit on Talefeathers?
For sure, but stars are fun. I'd much prefer having all 4-5 star recruits than all 3 star recruits. It probably won't make THAT big of a difference in the end, but it always makes me feel better.Zyme wrote:Am I the only one who care less about the stars and more about the player.

Re: Commit on Talefeathers?
I think that it helps most casual fans (i.e. those who don't follow recruiting) know the Ducks got a good player. People on this board probably know how good he is so it doesn't matter. It's just the outside perception by casual fans that takes a hit by players being downgraded. I wouldn't be shocked to see some of our players upgraded over the course of the recruiting cycle so that it evens out in the end.
