Transfer, Hundley & Wilder tidbits from the Twittersphere...

[Sooth]

He couldn't be talking about Bryce Brown, could he?

Forgive me if I'm ignorant to the details of his transfer from Tennessee as I just assumed he was going to Kansas State to be with his brother and stopped paying attention.

Does anyone know what's happening in the case of Brown?

I don't think Chip wants him so even if he wanted to come here after everything he has done I doubt Chip would take him.

Though Brown could certainly be a player that might want to come here, I think I join others in saying it would be quite shocking if our staff both wanted him and felt we needed him.

There's no doubt BB is talented and while I can understand the bad taste in almost everyone's mouths from the drama of his recruitment. If he has his release (not sure), maybe he's contacted the Duck staff and through conversation has demonstrated solid maturity.

If that's the case, why not take a flyer? He and Dontae Williams could be the next Power back to complement the crazy level of talent we have in our speedy backs.

Though I have ZERO inside knowledge, I doubt it's Bryce Brown.

Just playing along though, IF it is, and assuming we hang onto 3 of Mariotta, Manziell, Hundley and Randall, we literally, would not need to recruit a backfield player for a year or two. Would be kind of strange, but nice. Young depth allows us to be super picky at those spots if we DO end up recruiting them at all, and allows us to spend more time, money, energy and resources on positions of need.

I'm still holding out for a big time WR or DT though...

Remember that the Brown family is still affiliated with Brian Butler. Personally I don't think we need the extra baggage he brings.

Dunno if it is the same person being talked about...while at work I caught the end of this sports radio show and they said that would be awesome news for Oregon if they did land that person. Didnt hear the name damnit. A DT or WR would be nice tho.

well one that can qualify and keep his grades up anyways

[nehalem]

I don't care if BB is "Adrian Peterson good", I like the RB's we have now and our chances at even better ones in the future. Besides the symetry of kicking K-states ass-twice-with Harper and Brown, is too perfect.

[slickajk]

If we even play K-state...I thought I read that they were trying to get out of the game, thus the LSU talk.

Considering his off the field issue it may be a longshot that this is who JHop was referring to, but Bob Condotta just posted this on his twitter:

Official word from UCLA today is that Josh Shirley would be free to go to any other school and immediately eligible.

Although he is a hell of player, do we really want someone that was just arrested for a felony two days after starting school?

[ChipKellyKapowski]

I doubt it's Shirley based strictly on the fact that Jhop insinuated that this would be "the biggest transfer story in a long time" (paraphrased, in spite of the quote marks lol.) I think Jhop is talking about a legit 5 star type stud, and though Shirley is no doubt a talented upper level prospect, I just don't think he's a "big" enough name for this story...

I really don't know who in hell we could get as a transfer that would constitute "the biggest transfer story in a long time."

I don't see how people are missing this: we're getting Tebow.
