It seems like there are 22 so far, counting Sewell.

Just a miscount on my part as I was counting from the list here while editing instead of one of the recruiting sites.

This makes the class for me, just saying, need the big boys up front to do anything. Herberts gotta be happy

With the emphasis on the lines this year, next year is going to have be about the skill players, namely WR, TE, LB and CB.

I would swap out CB for DE but agree that we for sure need more skill players. Is there a top flight RB on the west coast next year? Let's get the next J-stew/Royce in the fold.

Sean Dollars (Rancho Cucamonga transfer to Mater Dei, former teammate of Thomas Graham) and Austin Jones (O'Dowd, teammate of Jevon Holland) are the top two back in California for 2019. Both are really high on Oregon, both have visited.

Instead of LB, I should have said rush end/OLB since Oregon really needs some edge rushers who can get to the QB. That's one area I don't think they've addressed in the last couple classes.

CB is a pressing need as there's only 6 full-time CBs on the roster with them lucking out that Holland and Stephens are good enough coverage guys to play as potential nickel backs in addition to their normal safety spots.

Yup. Surprisingly, we're sitting somewhat pretty at ILB...they're just young.

CB is a big hole. Really need to get a couple more guys there.

New CB commit. Heard his name yesterday. Washington St. looked to be where he was going.

6'2". Like his size.

So it looks like Taggard poached 4 of our recruits. Is that correct? Bolden, Harrison, Thompson, and Lamar.

Nah. We didn't recruit Lamar and Thompson and Bolden were always following Willie.

Harrison is the only one. I

Hailassie looks pretty good. Wish I could find even one timed race/run of his to confirm his speed, but he looks like a solid prospect. Reminds me a Chris Seisay but faster.
