Local boy from Beaverton. Pronounced ESH-urr, rhymes with "thresher".

Hope the coaches see something special in him. Didn't even have an offer from Eastern Washington.

They didn't. Just figured they'd waste a scholly for fun!

Interesting that he didn't appear to have any other offers.

Can't have every guy on the roster be studs.

We now have 3 or 4 OL commits to an already deep line. Early commits mean our coaches can spend more time at other positions which, with our desperate need for WRs and DTs, is definitely a good thing/

[oregonpride]

If they like him enough to offer a scholarship, that is good enough for me. Welcome James!

[uostudent]

Can't say I'm very excited about this. Surprised that he didn't commit the second he got the offer. Even Oregon State didn't offer him..

[buckmarkduck]

Sounds like Cal and OS are/where close to offering him, good to see UO jump on him early. The reason he may be underrated, is because he hasn't gone to a single combine, and that's usually where Scout/Rivals/ESPN do evaluations.

At 6'7 260 and no gut, he looks the part.

That's what I saw 6'7" 260-280 according to different sites and no gut.
Uh, I really think Greatwood and Chip know a little more than anyone on this board in evaluating talent, so if they are happy so am I.
"He (Greatwood) was really excited," Euscher said when he delivered the good news.

If the coaches like him I like him...welcome aboard James!

GO DUCKS!!

Definitely a surprise offer and commit, but the upside and physical body is there.

Seems like a guy who could use a few years to develop, but the end product could be sick.

This thread is a virtual carbon copy of threads that were made after some unknown lineman by the name of C.E. Kaiser committed to the Ducks back in 2005.

"Washington and Washington State didn't even offer him."

"I am surprised the coaches offered a kid who only had one other offer, from Idaho."

"Hope the coaches know what they are doing."

"Can't say I'm very excited about this."

"Oh well, they can't all be studs."

Gotta love message boards.

Greatwood and Radcliffe can really mold him into something special. As far as his offer list, Oregon routinely offers guys who excel at their camps. Scott Grady comes to mind as one that got a scholarship from Oregon after a great camp.

[Boom]

When was the last time we had a bust on the O line....?
