Josh Atkinson still favors the Ducks

Rivals just did a piece on him, but I don't have a Rivals account so I don't know what it said. But it's obvious that Oregon leads.

His brother George Atkinson is even better:

I've heard pretty positive things about us landing both these guys, but it's still really early, so we'll have to see how things plan out. If UCLA or USC offer Josh, I'm concerned that they might both head to one of those schools. For now though, it is nice to see Josh tabbing us as the leader.

Also nice that we are one of a handful of schools to offer both brothers, we could move josh from db to wr i think if need be he's a great athete just like his brother. They already visited this spring and got to see practice, so that his a huge bonus. Dad played in the nfl so great bloodline. Personally i really want both these guys, would be cool to have a set of twins on the team and they're both great players.

I do like both of these guys a lot! Landing the two of them would be huge in terms of depth of athleticism and guys that could contribute really early on in special teams coverage and wherever else before settling in as a 1 or 2 deep starter...

Then we could say things like, "take that! a healthy dose of the atkinson's diet!" Lol...

More duck love, and George saying ducks are high on his list too and will get an official visit.

Landing both of these guys would be awesome, but I'm starting to think that George could be one of our most important recruits as it's starting to look like he's our last chance to land a big time WR with any size.

Sumler would be an awesome get, but the two WR's we took last year (Huff and Lowe) are both also sub 6-feet. We need some bigger WR's that can do more than just block.

We need some bigger WR's that can do more than just block.

Expect Tuinei to fill that role for the time being; he really came on strong at the end of last year. Although I won't disagree that getting the Atkinson twins, Sumler, or stealing Farmer would be awesome.

Too summerize the rivals artical in my own words is that, "He always is getting contacted by the coaches and it comes down to the confort level, and he feels Oregon is at that point"

also says that he sat down with Lame Kittin and Ed "salesman" orgeron and liked the coaching staff but wants too wait out and see how the down turn is going to be.
Sorry if I was not allowed to do that

Looked fine to me... All TK asks is that we summarize, rather than copy and paste the paysite info.

Yeah that's fine.
