Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

this is from reading tons of boards and being in chat rooms ( no quotes from me):

OWA wants NU, it was only his mom he had to convince. OWA to NU. The Suh reference is garbage though. The odds of him being the next Suh are 1%. And Suh would have been great no matter where he went. NU coaches do not have any magic dust.

I also believe King will be at CAL. It is where he wants to be.

Werner ,as we know, is FSU vs. Ducks, it can go either way. No call here.

Lowe - Ducks poach Lowe from UW.

Dargan - Ducks

Lache - Ducks


that would be 20/21 commits. Still a big hole at DT. Ducks will have to go hard again next yr at DT.

those 20/21 commits will move Ducks to around 15 in final rankings. Not bad for Chips 1st class. So close for a few studs, but Bellotti was so close for a few studs yr after yr too.

Sounds about right, especially after the latest OWA news, lets hope we can change King's mind!

Why is it we can recruit stars on offense but have trouble on recruiting defensive line studs...frustrating!

I like how our class looks but misses at DT are going to hurt us for a few more years!

GO DUCKS!!

Are you trying to start another "I hate Aliotti" thread?!? Hahaha....

If Owa doesn't come, then King likely would. I'm telling you, he likes Oregon but was worried about Owa and his situation. If Owa goes elsewhere, then I think our chances with King go up greatly.

If that is n fact the case, here's hoping Owa decides soon and lets the Ducks staff know. So they can go hard after King.

Do you really think the Ducks are only making a halfhearted effort to get King?

If we whiff on the two best in-state guys, i'm gonna be really concerned... there's ZERO reason we shouldn't be getting these guys when defensive line is our biggest need, and these guys live in our backyard. Where's the full court press? where's the assistant coaches becoming best friends with their families? If we miss both of them I'll have doubts about the ability of the staff to be able to recruit us to a National Championship. You DO NOT win National Championships without consistent Top-10 recruiting classes. Ask any CFB coach what the most important thing to success is and they'll say "recruiting" without hesitation.

You gotta consider that we have a brand new D-line coach, and maybe Owa and his family are not sold on his ability to coach D-linemen. He needs to prove he can produce them. Also, he may not like the scheme of Allow-a-lotti as much as he likes the nebraska D-coordinator's scheme. I know I wouldn't want to play in his scheme if I were a big time recruit.

All in all though, I am happy with the fact that we are in his top 2 and we truly have a 50/50 shot at him. Thats all you can ask for at this point in the recruiting cycle. He may decide to go to Nebraska, or stay closer to home.

I wanted to but I held back...a little!

I just get tried of hearing how good a recruiter he is.

Ummm... Does Dwight Freeney not count?

That would be great. I've always felt if we could just get one of them I would be happy. I prefer Owa but King isn't far behind him. Either one would be awesome IMO.

My thoughts exactly!

Maybe if Freeney lights up Mark Sanchez a few times this Sunday these guys will start looking at Coach Azz with a bit more respect.

As far as Alliotti goes, I can understand how some of these recruits must be thinking. Our offense is consistently one of the best in the nation, but our defense is a ways behind. Fortunately, the defense did make some positive strides this season.

The thing that most recruits may not be taking into account is the amount of time the defense stays on the field because of how fast we score offensively. I'd like to see how top defenses like Nebraska, Texas, Alabama, Florida, etc fared if they spent as much time on the field as we do.

All high school kids can think of is the right here and NOW... He doesn't have the pedigree that makes a kid think that he will churn out top d-linemen year after year... Nebraska, on the other hand, looks pretty impressive to a recruit right about now.

They prob look at our D coordinator and think, "mmm no thanks"

King may not be able to come here....


Haloti seemed to do ok in NAs scheme.
