2011 anyone?

Scout.com has a really weird interview with a guy named "Krieg Akins", who also happens to go to Thurston High School, but is an inch taller and several pounds heavier than the profile for Kraig Akins. Obviously an erroneous duplicate profile, but in this one, "Krieg Akins" talks about winning a state championship, which Thurston did not... they lost in the quarterfinals.

Scout's gone crazy.

Pretty sure they won the title in 08

Nope, they lost the championship game.

Ah my bad. Well anyway, maybe that year was the source of confusion since they got so close.

Per Mops Twitter, Oregon is the early favorite for this running back.

Looks like a solid RB for Oregon to be going after. I bet there will be a couple other high-profile RB recruits that will be considering Oregon.

Sounds good.

I agree this guy looks like another Thunder back and we we need him down the road.

^Moore sounds solid.

Also keep an eye on OL Hegarty, I'll have a piece on him soon. Him and Westermen are our top 2 OL prospects. Right now I like where we stand with Hegarty.

Also for you guys looking for some more DT offers.

I liked seeing his High School, pretty sure we have a good relationship with that one if the coach is the same as in the past.

Same HS as Terrence Pritchett...not sure if that's a good or a bad thing.

A WR I could definitely see coming here. Teammates of Bennett and Grasu from Crespi. Says Oregon, Cal, and Colorado offers will come very soon.

He already has a good relationship with them so that would help with the chemistry issue between QB and WR.

And angry! I like him already!

Hope we get him.

While I follow recruiting pretty closely I usually wait till Rivals comes out with their 150 list. Simply because do not know enough about any of them to speculate whether they fit into Oregon or whether should get excited about them. A lot of these kids mentioned in the posts on this thread sound interesting. It is to early for me to start watching their moves so closely though as is early in this years cycle. Yes we need to go after them early but I will let the coaches decide who they want to target then start watching those closely.

A couple of thoughts though on some of them that have been mentioned. I am trying to remember but did Johnathon Stewart go to Skyline in Washington. It seems to me he did but I may be mistaken. If so maybe he can make a phone call or two.

The other thought is if we are to have a better class than this years we absolutely positively must have guys on the D line DE and DT especially. If we can not get those.. then this class will not be as good as those are the areas we must have success this year to be a good class.

The other thought is with the recent troubles we are seeing on the news with some of the players.. how does that impact Oregon's recruiting. I fear that parents will be very hesitant to let their kids go to a school that has had so much negative publicity the last 6 weeks.

The Ducks will be fine if they contiune to repeat 10 win or more this season.
