Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

http://oregon.rivals.com/barrier_noentr ... &mid=&rid=

Once in a great while a truly special athlete comes along. Someone who has the stuff that legends are made of and who can accomplish things on the grid-iron that no one else ever has. Shrouded in myth, speculation, and Internet chatter these players often have their accomplishments blown out of proportion.

They also can become the subject of controversy and of vicious rumors that can effect their lives. Like many Top recruits Hillsboro (Ore) High School's Colt Lyerla is getting a taste of what can happen.

Are you baiting a subscriber to fill in the rest of the article? I'd be curious to hear what he has to say too.

He claims no leader. Says academics are fine.

It does seem that everything that is known about him has been through rumors or from secondhand sources, not from him.

That's better news than the rumors. Strangely, for me especially, I'd be okay if he went else where. Maybe I'm still high from Fishducks defensive disertation and the future looks so bright.

I would be in a major funk if he went elsewhere. OWA last yr. Him and Scarlett should be getting post cards every day.

Yeah same here. I don't care so much about Scarlett but it would really suck to lose Lyerla. He's a one of a kind athlete that would be ridiculous in our new defense.

Watched him play Thurston and Jefferson last year in the playoffs. Didn't have a great game against Thurston, but did have a couple "holy crap" plays. He was largely used as a decoy. A Thurston CB got into his head and shut him out for awhile, but the kid was only a junior, and that stuff improves with maturity. I would like to see him NOT throw punches at an opponents facemask, that's just asking for an ejection/broken hand. But, I suppose he got the last laugh, as Hillsboro won the game rather easily.

It'll be really interesting to see his numbers this year. Hillsboro is making the jump to 6A, and most of that team graduated. It'll be Lyerla + last year's JV squad going up against really tough competition every week.

They play us, Beaverton next year I think, My coach wanted to play them ahahaha, lets hope it happens!

Someone over on AtQ said they had talked to Lyerla & that he said he was "wary" of Oregon because he thought the people in eugene don't want him to come to Oregon... he musta been readin the message boards . I'm sure he loved the fact that people were saying he juices.

Why wouldn't we want him at Oregon? It must have been Beaver fans saying that.

And of course that happens. Posing as other teams fans to piss people off was quite the rage for Beavers last year. They were all over the Scout boards last years pretending to be Duck fans and acting like a$$holes. We have enough douche bag fans though without their help. And unfortunately we have the worse fansites (other than TCU's Scout board) I have seen. The O-Live, the Scout Open Season flame board. (This board is pretty good, but it isn't that public and it allows completely unsupported allegations of players and recruits.)

Washington State lost one of there big recruits a couple of years ago, whose public reason for de-committing was the WSU internet fans (Scout board in particular). Obviously, there could and probably was more to it, but the idiots over there certainly did nothing to help there cause.

Those boards are worthless because the moderators don't really do their jobs. They let other teams' fans run amok and when the fans of the board's real team try to refute, they get banned or threatened with it.
