Another receiver visiting?

[greenyellow]

According to a post by Bob Rickert, it looks like another WR could end up visiting. Scott Frost is reportedly visiting Julian Brooks, an Arizona commit, to discuss the possibility of him visiting. Oregon looks like they're serious in bringing in possibly 3 WRs in this class.

Someone has got to be transferring with how theyre going after WRs. I still think Huff is gone at some point. Either way I like it though, our WRs were a major weakness this year & it's nice to see they're doing something about it.

Huff can't catch but losing him would hurt just because of his experience.....if he transfers I'd almost rather go after a top JC guy as opposed to throwing out an all frosh WR corps

[karlhungis]

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if Huff leaves this year. At least Devon Blackmon sounds like he is still loving being a ducks...

From his twitter....

I expect big things next year from D12

Don't think Huff is transferring. On 247, someone posted something from his facebook about getting better next season and having a huge year.

Definitely not Blackmon. He's going to be a big time player here. BJ Kelley isn't going anywhere either.

Hope it's not Tacoi Sumler.

Could it possibly be Vaughn? He seems to be in the doghouse. Dropped a few passes. Has kind of been the forgotten man. Only has one more year of eligibility left though. Has the talent to be a #1 receiver.

Huff looked pretty comfortable carrying the RB trophy through the tunnel after the game....

I don't think it necessarily means someones going to transfer... We're already losing 3 to graduation.... So it's likely they just want to bring in 2-3 for this class.


I do think it's pretty likely that someone out of the last 2 classes will eventually transfer though.... but that has yet to shake out.

I think it's just an indication that the WR corps is the weakest link on the team, and they have a bunch of extra spots this year and want to grab a couple guys.

We already had transfers and some guys quit: Cantu, Cole, Hoffman, etc.

That just makes too much sense. Come on now.

That's sort of how I took it. Even though Oregon has some redshirts that will play next year, they need to stock up to for the future. I sure hope he doesn't transfer but I think Vaughn just hit that wall that you see with most JC players. I also like what I saw out of Lowe at the tail-end of the season. He may not have had many catches but you could see him blocking and getting at it on special teams.

I would agree with this thought but it's this late push that has me wondering. They've known this WR corps was weak all year but they're waiting till now to start really going after a bunch of guys? Something's changed. The obvious reason would be a transfer we don't know of yet. Or maybe the RSing frosh aren't where the coaches wanted them to be by now. All I know is there's a reason they're making this late of a push, and it's a big push no less.

It could also be that we're seeing more due to the fact players are starting to open up their recruiting now that football season is over and all-star games are happening. Plus, coaches are able to do more travelling for recruiting during bowl season and thus we are getting the news now.

Cantu is injured and will likely never play another down as a Duck in a game. LT is graduating. Are Hoffman and Murphy graduating? I saw something like that on Bob Rickerts short article about wide receivers visting, but those two are juniors. If they are indeed not going to be back next year, then that would make 4 WR's that need to be replaced and if Cole is gone, it would make 5.


I don't see Huff leaving as even when he isn't catching passes he is a highlight reel blocker. Not catching passes from time to time is on him and Josh strikes me as the kinda kid who is smart enough to realize that. Changing teams won't change that. Only being healthy and reps will.

Hoffman is a Junior, but I've heard that concussions might force him to quit football. That may be why we are going after a receiver...
