The class is taking shape- Blackmon appears to be on board--- Bigelow is close----
Anyone want to take a stab at the last commits? I still think we take both Bigelow and cason...

Haven't heard much about Leilon Willingham. Is he a serious target for the Ducks or a fallback option?

Devin Lucien still doesn't have an Oregon offer yet. I think he goes to UCLA or Michigan.

Sheldon is serious about UO, he even canceled a trip to UCLA. It could come down to who shows him the most love, but believe UO is right in the mix and we have a very good shot.

Also expect some unexpected players come Dec and Jan, last year UO wasn't really even in it for Lache and Ricky H. and Huff was a commit to TCU at the time. UO always seems to pull a rabbit or two out of the hat late and no reason it doesn't happen again this year. Win the NC and we could suddenly land a couple of really big names.

There will definitely be a couple players that Oregon gets for this recruiting class that we haven't talked about at all. They are usually some under-the-radar type guys or a late decommit from another school, but this year it will probably be some 4* guy that we never talked about.

Willingham is high on us and he was talked about earlier in the process...Lucien is a fallback option to Farmer and Kelley...hope we get him! He gives us a physical receiver to add to our speedy ones!

I would be very surprised if we landed both Lee and Gibson and didn't get Farmer at the same time.

If we're going with 11:

1. Bigelow (hopefully agrees to greyshirt)
2. Carson
3. Blackmon
4. Kelley
5. Vaughn or Carter
6. Shelton
7. Koa Ka'i
8. Lyerla or Jon Davis
9. McReynolds or Delvon Simmons
10. 1 more LB: Ryan Simmons/Gibson/Branden Jackson
11. Avery Walls (some good sources are saying he's a silent right now)

That would be a class of 26 as we have 15 currently.

I would be happy with that class.

Why would a top notch recruit like Bigelow greyshirt? That means he would have to pay his way through for his first year. That's not happening. Carlyle Garrick is much more likely to greshirt. Bigelow will redshirt wherever he goes.

I really hope that we leave a spot open for Avery Walls. Walls is an extremely talented player.

Koa Ka'ai is an absolute stud. He would be a huge pickup.

I've heard through great sources that Avery Walls will not be a duck...it's really too bad....After Ifo picked the Ducks, that was all the DB's they were going to take in this years class...Walls could have committed earlier and been a Duck but beat around the Bush too long...We could get Branden Jackson and Delvon Simmons but wouldn't be surprised if they stayed home and went to Penn St...Gibson and Lee have got to think twice about Cal now as well as Todd Barr...After the latest stunt by Tosh Lupoi...can't wait to see who we get!

Well I hope you're right because I really want Walls...I was sad when the news broke that they weren't going to take him...hope my source is wrong!

I think you nailed it pretty much.

If we land Lee/Gibson and Farmer then that changes things but chances are Lee & Farmer go to SC.

My list:

1. Bigelow (greyshirt)
2. Carson (greyshirt)
3. Blackmon
4. Kelley
5. Vaughn
6. Shelton
7. Jason Gibson
8. Colt Lyerla
9. Kevin McReynolds
10. Surprise #1
11. Surprise #2

The last two guys could be two of Walls, Townsend, Heyward, Barr, Simmons, Koa Kaai, Latu, Levingston, French or an unknown guy.

The other way to look at it is by position:

1) WR
2) WR
3) WR
4) DT
5) DT
6) DE
7) DE
8) LB
9) TE
10) Wildcard
