LSU.
Watch out for LSU. Personally I think he'll like the school/coach/etc. But if he hungers for stats then...........??
Dont know. At least USC is out and no official to Miami not a shocker although currently if he selects Miami on his LOI day I'd be shocked as all get out.
Also Depth chart. 4 listed RB's all former 4 or 5 stars. Last years returner Charles Scott had over 1,000 yds and 18 TD's. Doubt he takes over for him.
Also took two RB's in this class, a 3 and 4 star player. That's 6 listed RB's not counting BB if he were to join.

You have to like our chances when comparing OC's. I can't think of one duck fan that would trade Chip for Crowton. I really hope that Bryce's relationship with Chip pays off here.

While Chip was an upgrade for the Ducks, I honestly feel the Tigers are beginning to see the same result with Crowfoot that Oregon and BYU experienced... offensive predictability.
This season will show us more.

It would be tough to argue that the top RB in the country would be a "bad fit" at a powerhouse like LSU. It all depends on what Bryce is looking for though. If he was honest about his priorities earlier (or if they are still his priorities), then Oregon would still be a better fit.

I feel the longer this goes the more Oregon moves to the back of his mind and LSU and Tennessee stick out because they are more fresh on his mind. Viewing this from a perspective without green goggles on LSU looks real good, a good coach, tradition, recent success, huge fan base, SEC, great recruiting class, etc. Oregon's offense offers him the best chance to put up HUGE numbers but wherever he goes he will put up good numbers and the exposure LSU offers on a national level compared to Oregon is something he seems to want, he craves attention and unfortunately he would get more at LSU. As much as I would love to get him I have already convinced myself he goes elsewhere.

At least he won't be in the backfield of another Pac-10 school. I cannot believe I am saying this but I like our chances.

Nah, it still comes down to what Bryce is looking for in a school, where he feels comfortable, and what his role will be in the offense. If he's concerned about stats and scoring TD's, Oregon is the obvious choice. It's his best shot to fit in and contribute immediately, and he's got a high school buddy on the team, and the offense fits him and his skill set. And, most importantly, he has visited and seen everything here in Eugene.
I wish him luck whereever he goes, though. He's going to be very fun to watch.

I wonder if this time Crowton will try and take credit for the development of J-Stew... I remember last year during the Pryor "sweepstakes," when LSU entered the picture for a brief moment, he claimed he was responsible for the development of Dennis Dixon. lol.

I don't think Brown is worried about competition, even though LSU might have 6 running backs. Wherever he goes, I don't think he will have to wait long to see the field. LSU scares me a bit, but it will be tough to beat the relationship Brown has with Kelly. Who knows how this will play out.

USC is not necessarily out, he could make the LSU visit an unofficial.

After I wrote this I read an article about Brown and how high he still is on Oregon and how he is still in contact with Kelly so maybe I am wrong...... I sure hope so!

It might be one you have already seen, it is from Rivals on the 10th, I seem to be out of the loop as of late and haven't been up to date on everything, school, work and everything else has been killing me!
