Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

I am not sure who dropped who, but we're out.

He dropped us because he didn't want to go that far away from home. I guess Cal is the team to beat now.

So much for his head telling him to go to Oregon...

I wouldnt count out UCLA. The staff may not be entirely set but they have some good recruiters coming in. I'd put money on Cal though.

I still think Foster ends up at ASU. If Foster wasn't ready to go away from home, then maybe it is for the best that he didn't choose us(that way we avoid a potential transfer). There are still plenty of great recruits on the board, so this wasn't a case of DJ or bust. I won't lie though, I was pretty excited to see what Foster could do in our offense..

That's dumb. It's only another hour or so flight to get home, if that. Oh well, we'll be fine without him.

What's amazing to me is that Cal continues to recruit like crazy, bringing in all of these highly rated players, but have only won 10 games once(?) in the Tedford era and have NEVER been to a BCS Bowl. The one year they were left out in favor of Texas they got smacked down by Texas Tech in the Holiday Bowl. Look at all of the talented players they've had, but they've been consistently stuck in mediocrity. Always ranked in the preseason, but never reach the expectations.

Go ahead, go to Cal. See ya' in the rearview.

Ridiculously dumb for him. Sucks for the Ducks but at least he's respectable enough to say no now instead of letting this linger on like so many other recruits have. So definitely thanks to him for that.

agreed but i really cant blame any RB for considering Cal. they do a great job there and DL with Tosh. everywhere else is a mess especially QB.

He'll be just another in a long line of great Cal backs that never really did anything worth mentioning. Emerald bowls all fun though, right?

The RB coach at ASU is now at UCLA. That's my guess where Foster goes because Mazzone the OC went there too.

Yes, that would mean that he forsakes his life-long love for the Sun Devils to just play with his position coach and OC in Westwood.

Really, this just sounds like the perfect example of trying to recruit 16/17/18 year old kids. Sometimes they can be aware of every possible positive and negative and ultimately make what we consider to be an irrational decision.

Wow, I guess our in home didn't go so well....

I can't blame these recruits, I mean, Vegas and Sun Bowls are way more fun than BCS bowls right?

I wonder if we'll offer Javon Williams now.

I doubt it, we still have better options at receiver.

Stop overlooking Cal's ability to put players in the NFL that become stars. Aaron Rodgers, Deshawn Jackson, Lynch, Best...We send some to the NFL, but most turn out to be benchwarmers, or just contributors, not big time starters. Ngata is the only Duck recently who is a household name, but anyone knew he was that good regardless of where he went.

Just my perspective. Cal's got a great record of NFLers to sell the program. Is what it is.
