Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

at least two DTs, we are in for it in 2011.

We've got Hart (converted DE), Remington (unproven, converted DE) and Kelikipi. That's it.

The coaches need to seriously consider bringing in some bodies this year.

I just looked at the roster, i didn't realize it was actually this bad.

Who are they looking at? There has to be some JC prospects out there.

Brandon Bair.

Justin Brown


Karrington Armstrong - on roster as OL but played DT in HS.

and tuiososopo

Brown didn't qualify

But, will he next year?

goducks has Anthony Anderson listed as a DT.

We currently have 5 DT's

Tuiasosopo, Denton DT 6-1 305 Jr. Pittsburg, Calif. (Pittsburg HS)
Keliikipi, Wade DT 6-3 288 RFr. Waianae, Hawaii (Waianae HS)
Clark, Zac DT 6-2 260 Sr. Wichita, Kan. (Butler County C.C.) (Wichita North HS)
Bair, Brandon DT 6-7 268 Sr. St. Anthony, Idaho (South Fremont HS)
Remington, Isaac DL 6-4 290 Jr. Queen Creek, Ariz. (Phoenix College) (Valley Christian HS)

Taylor Hart could possibly move inside depending on how much weight he adds in the offseason.

I hope that is a joke! No way that kid could stop a 280 lb O-lineman.

We need some size to clog the middle while the rest of our athletic, talented defense makes plays.

Anderson is a DE. No question about it.

Hart is a DT, but the undersized version like Bair.

Bair and Clark graduate after this year. The real concern is next year.

Tuiasosopo is a walk on.

We have three scholarship DTs for 2011, two of which are the undersized variety: Hart, Kelekipi, and Remington.

That's it.

Yes he is a walk on, but I think there is hope that he will become a decent contributor. He has the size and NFL blood lines.

There is no doubt that we will have to sign some JC guys next year. Even if we do pick up some stud preps.

You guys make it seem like the coaches are purposefully missing out on DT's. You can NOT make a 18 yr old kid go to your school unless they want to. The coaches probably put in more hours in one season than all of us do in 5 years combined. Don't think they are not trying because they do and s***, its not like 300 lb, agile kids grow on trees.

Agreed, but it would be nice to add some depth, even from a JC or something. We'll see though what goes down on signing day.

Completely agree. There's some serious riff-raff joining this board lately.

Wish there was something we could do about it.
