WR B.J. Kelley

Post by Sooth »

According to Mops' tweet, he has interest in Oregon.

Brendon Bigelow's teammate at East Cenral HS.

6'2, caught 35 passes for 758 yards and 7 touchdowns as a junior last season. Reportedly ran a 4.43 40 at the Passing Down Camp and was named the camp's MVP according to his scout.com profile.

Might be a name to keep in mind possibly.

I liked his highlight reel too. He's a very smooth runner and seems patient. Perhaps it's due to his larger size, but we do need a bigger WR or two in this class.

Thought this was pretty cool: "B.J. Kelley saw the letter and couldn't even open it, couldn't even believe he was awake, when he saw on the envelope the words "official offer enclosed" and it came from the Oregon football offices."

Shows how much he coveted Oregon's offer. Definitely makes it sound like he's Oregon's to lose.

Kelley would be an excellent addition. He's very fast, but also has great hands. I'm actually surprised that he's not a 4 star receiver. He could grow another inch and should be able to add about 20 pounds of muscle. He has a great frame for a WR. He's also the high school teammate of Brendon Bigelow.

I'd be worried about Kelley if Cal offers. There's been some speculation that Bigelow may commit to Cal. If Bigelow goes to Cal and Kelley receives an offer, he may want to follow his high school teammate.

With a Northwestern offer in hand, Kelley clearly has pretty good grades and should have no trouble qualifying.
“If everybody in this room just want to be real with themselves, this game could have went either way,” he said. “We turned the ball over a lot. We beat ourself. Just be real with yourself right now. We beat ourself.”

Exciting news. I like the way Kelley uses his body to shield off the CB and make the catch. He obviously has some good moves to pick up yards after the catch as well.

One thing that either worries me about Kelley or makes me want Bigelow that much more is how much faster the RB looks than Kelley. Watch at the 5:15 mark as Bigelow just turns on the jets, really, really impressive.

Now Kelley also looks very fast early in the video and most of the time when he gets caught by the CB it's because the pass was behind him or the safety made him cut. Other than those times, he gets a step and takes it to the house.

So Brandon Bigelow.... come on down!!!

While I still think we need at least 3 receivers in this class, reading all the practice reports is starting to make me feel about our situation there. Cantu, Cole, and Huff are all still young and seem to really be stepping up since camp opened and the walk-on Hoffman might be our 4th receiver this year.

I remember when he first came into the NBA in 2003 and played in Portland for the first time, he did his post-game interview in a customized #23 Oregon Ducks football jersey. It was the night of a UO-UW game that we lost and he talked about the game a little in his interview by saying he could have helped the team. Thought it was kind of cool he knew about Oregon.

I remember something like that, I had forgotten, I didn't live here in 2003 but thanks for reminded me/us...cool. He is a NIKE guy so it wouldn't surprise me.
