Does anyone know if he has managed to get in that visit with his mom yet?

Not sure if he ever did. If he didn't, then I would say he is all UW.

Someone remind me. Why does Shelton's mom want him to go to UW? Is it a distance factor? If so, a five hour drive is not a big deal.

It is a distance factor. It may not sound like a lot to us, but to them, it could be the deciding factor.

Perception is a key factor. My parents would go from Salem to Corn Valley to see my Brother 4-5 times per month, yet never came to see me in Eugene till my Daughter was born (5 years) because it was "so far away." I could never comprehend how 60 minutes on I-5 was so much harder to navigate than 45 minutes of cow paths but that was their perception.

5 hours is definitely not that far. Shelton will be announcing at the offense/defense game on 12/31. The coaches have had an in-home with his family.

Shelton's mom has not been to Oregon and I really doubt she visits this week. Shelton is UW bound imo.

Devon Blackmon will be announcing during the UA game. Says it's down to UCLA, Oregon, USC, and Cal. My guess is that it's between UCLA and Oregon. Watch us get played here...

Or he could just follow the trend and head on down to Cal.

Maybe they just like him better than you?

I have pondered that thought for the past 50 years, a little too late to get worked up over now.

I feel your pain, man... My little bro' (May he rest in peace) went to the dark side young and fast, led by Dad, who played football for the Beavs, just before WW2.

Not only was my bro' a Beavis (And thus, the far-haired child), but he dragged his two, once sweet, little girls down the path of destruction with him.

It was a could have been a humiliating defeat, but I managed to help save many another young mind from ignominious doom.

My son-in-law is a beav (Amazing how a scholarship and a parent working there providing a huge discount in tuition can affect one's judgment!)... even works at the school, now that he has graduated.

Imagine his chagrin when he bought his 2 year old son a Beavis costume to wear for the family Christmas picture, and the only thing the photographer said that could get the kid to smile was, "GO DUCKS!"

My grandson threw both hands in the air and yell "Hoo-Ray!"

So did I.

We digress.

I want Shelton for his positional skills on the playing field. The fact he would be snubbing the Fuskies would be a nice bonus,

does anybody know if this game will be televised?

The O-D game will be on Versus December 31st... The Army A-A game will be televised on NBC, January 8th.

I think the Under Armour A-A game is on ESPN.
