Has it slowed? It feels like a decade since our last commit.

Also, if you look at the recruiting boards, CAL is getting in the way of the Ducks getting some major recruits....

It has been slow but now with official visits starting up, I think we may see some commits in the next couple weeks.

It is possible that after this weekend we may see a commit or two with some recruits visiting. Also once we get into conference play we will continue to get more visits set and should start seeing some commits. Usually Oregon only has a few commits early and gets most towards the end of the season and a few surprises after the season right up until signing day so for us to have this many already is kind of a surprise.

We already have several good commits. A lot of schools aren't getting much right now. I'm sure some will trickle in as the season goes along and then will pick up again as it gets closer to LOI day. Still fairly early in the process.

Doesn't seem like he is freaking out. I was kinda curious what was going on as well. There hasn't been much talk lately that i have seen.

P.S. I hope that French kid comes to Oregon. Looks like the sky is the limit for him!

and it will only be a matter of time before oregon's next arrest .. jk jk

kids don't just look at won/loss records for a particular season ... they like the shiny toys as evidenced by your success since the King Knight started donating billions ... wait til our own opens next year, then we'll really be "getting in your way"

besides, as we say down here, we just need to tosh'em :mrgreen:

meh, they disappointed big time last year and still pulled in a top 10 class (if you include Chris Martin). I think they'll be pretty solid from what ive seen, especially defensively bringing in a former NFL DC (forgot his name)...they could get to 9-3 or 10-2 this year.

But Martin has transferred to Florida so the class isn't that good.

Well they keep getting good classes and getting some players that Oregon is trying to get as well and usually they bring in a better class than Oregon yet Oregon is having better results on the field and similar results with putting players into the NFL so I am fine with losing some guys to Cal, Oregon is doing just fine.

Just as people are saying recruiting is going slow, we get a commit from a good LB recruit. Maybe we should always have a thread like this since we always seem to get a recruit once one starts up.

In hindsight, it worked out great with the Martin situation. Once he committed to Cal, he was pivotal in promoting the school. But by all accounts, he was "challenging" once he got actually got on campus in the summer. On top of all that, he couldn't stay away from the issues that caused him to move away during his junior year. Its better for all involved that he did transfer and Tedford classily let him go without repercussions.

Penderghast is our DC and he's all or nothing. We'll really be tested this week against Nevada and their bigger, stronger and better passing version of Masoli ... :?
