I worked myself up the last 2 seasons over recruiting and got upset when certain guys went elsewhere and look at where Oregon is and where the other guys are, I am not going to work myself up anymore because Oregon is getting "good enough" guys to put together some good seasons and with the commits we already have, the fresman waiting to play and the number of young skill players this team has they should be good for at least a few years. Oregon will continue to get good recruits and will get better and better every year most likely and if a kid decides to go to Cal and play x-box or go to USC and no play in a bowl game because they are too blind to see the Ducks are playing in a NC then so be it. I understand there are many reasons of varying degrees as to why a kid chooses one school over another so they are the ones that have to live with their decision if they later realize they may have made a mistake.

Lee and Farmer are like joined at the hip. Like brothers practically. In fact, Farmers father has made an effort to be a "father figure" of sorts to Lee. Gibson is closer to David Moala. Either way, the chances of Farmer being a Duck are slim to none, and thus, the prospect of landing Lee is also slim. Gibson has the greatest chance to be a Duck in my opinion.

And for what it's worth, according to what I've heard, even if Farmer wanted to be a Duck, his father is pushing him towards SC. We all know what that means.

But hey, perhaps something can change between now and NSD. Who knows?
Remember, remember, the Fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot. I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot... But what of the man? I know his name was Guy Fawkes and I know, in 1605, he attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament. But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world. I've witnessed first hand the power of ideas. I've seen people kill in the name of them, and die defending them. But you cannot kiss an idea; cannot touch it, or hold it. Ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain, they do not love... And it is not an idea that I miss //////// Follow me one Tumblr/blog http://f***-kp.tumblr.com/

I don't know that anyone knows much of anything other than the Ducks are in the top 2 or 3 for Farmer and Lee.

Is Farmer a USC lock? Is it 50/50? Who the **** knows?

I'm convinced that half the time, even the recruits themselves don't even know!

Let's just wait and see what happens. It's much more enjoyable if we just relax and enjoy the ride. We've got no control here we're just spectators. Why have a panic attack over it?

I hear you, and I'm not even trippin over it. I'm just saying, that's how it's looking at the moment.

It's always fun for me to read all the updates on these players, but after not getting most of the big names last year I've learned to not get quite as excited. If they don't want to come here than it's their lost not ours.

Thanks Bumi for the info, the more info we get the better even if it points to other teams...ugghhh!

I too get too excited about the getting the "top guy" but it is part of recruiting so its no biggy to me when we don't land a particular recruit because we will get ours in the end...

And keep in mind we may be playing for the NC and year in year out we are a winning program but we are NOT the USCs, NDs, MICHs, UFs ect and while its great to be in the mix for these recruits we are in a serious up hill battle for the best of the best against these schools! Its just part of the game of recruiting...

It sounds like Cal is getting a few big commits this week. I wonder if it is Lee and Gibson?

Well that sucks...WHAT ARE THEY SEEING AT CAL?

I guess they all want degrees because they have NO future in FB!:lol:

Ya ya I know CAL is a good school what are they going to school for anyhow...because that's a big an issue as anything!

On a side note, I wonder if firing Tedford will help us any. He (and other ex-coaches) knows most of all the negatives about Eugene and I'm sure a coaches change with assitants will help us down the road...time will tell.

Very frustrating!

UO never had a shot at Keenan Allen, it was Bama or Cal so I doubt he's thinking anything at all about UO.

You realize that Cal is #10 in the country in total NFL players, right? Cal gives the best of both worlds (academic support/nfl placement).
