Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

Jhop just tweeted there is some signing day "bad news." Can someone please fill me in on what that news could possibly be? Who is not signing with Oregon?

could be randall not qualifying since that has been a possibility for a while

Sumler? There had been some talk a while back...

Clemson for Byers?

This doesn't necessarily have to do with an already committed recruit.

This could just be that, like last year, the athletic department will not list LOI's as they're received and will just release them once they're all received.

Or it could be that a few or our targets with signing day announcements will not be going our way.

Ok-- but what is it? This could also be that Jhop is busy that day and can't be there to report or that the fax machine is broken. That is why I ask.

The bad news is that Chip won't announce LOIs until later in the day. Really nothing to worry about.

Yeah, it really could be anything.

1. Someone changes mind won't be a Duck.
2. Someone on his want list chooses another school.
3. Our entire recruiting class decides to play on the DL at Cal because Tosh is their newest BFF.
4. Aforementioned breaking of fax machine.
5. A promised beefy dinner will be meat loaf instead of steak.


Anybody got a clue?

Damm funny.

I'm not going to let a rumored "sword of damocles" ruin how great I feel about this recruiting class.

Yup. I pinky promise.

Thanks Tray, but not really thanks - meaning I liked it when updates of letters flowing in come out throughout the day. Oh well, In Chip We Trust.

If this is REALLY what it is, (Tray Dub DID pinky promise), then I'm extremely "meh" about it...

The real news on LOI day - to me - isn't the signed letters that we get faxed, but rather the announcements of all the guys we're still recruiting, which, of course will be HEAVILY covered on twitter, scout, rivals, etc.

I'll gladly trade waiting a few extra hours to find out the OFFICIAL commitment list, for being able to know, in real time, whether or not we got our Delvons, Christians, Branden's, of the recruiting world.

That will be an extremely unproductive, hit the refresh button a million times, on-pins-and-needles-all-day kinda day for sure!

Bad news, next years unis will be orange and black.
