Honestly, I have no idea what that is supposed to mean. He wants it to make sense? How would waiting make any choice make more sense? I suppose waiting could benefit the ducks because he wants to make sure it appears as if he took the time following his visit to make sure that it was the right choice. Waiting to choose the Ruins wouldn't make any more sense than just simply choosing them.... I don't know. I still think he ends up as a duck.

They are probably reacting to this picture posted on Blackmon's Twitter album...

Looking at the picture more closely.....
-UCLA cap
-USC sticker on his cheek (looks like it)
-Nike cleats
I texted a buddy of mine who follows USC recruiting religiously and he said that USC wanted Blackmon as a DB. He doesn't think that Blackmon will end up at USC. In his opinion, Oregon is the best fit.

Maybe he wanted to meet Hundley and see how he throws the ball. From all reports Hundley's been tearing it up. Hope that's wrong and keeping my fingers crossed.

What you have is a 17 yr old kid acting like a 12 yr old. Plus his English is as bad as you can get.

Brandon Huffman from scout is saying that Blackmon has been a UCLA silent for months. It sounds like he may have actually recruited Hundley to UCLA....

Yikes. I guess I shouldn't be surprised since we've been there and done that a few times.

Meh. This is the same Brandon Huffman that less than a week ago said he'd be shocked if DBlack went anywhere but Oregon.
That's the problem with the internet and media these days... Anyone can make any comment, no matter how outrageous, and turn around just a few days later and, with revisionist history, say something else. Those that point this out are ridiculed as losers who need to get a life, rather than people trying to hold them accountable for their words...
Here's all we know at this point. USC has a great football tradition, has great academics and is in Southern Cal. UCLA is probably the most beautiful campus in America, has terrific academics, has a terrific history of athletics, and again, is in socal. Oregon is in the natty, on the rise, has a system that DBlack would kill in, and has the Nike connections.
Would anyone really be surprised if he chose ANY of those schools?
