Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

By how much of an impact you think they will have over their careers.

1. Deanthony
2. Lyerla
3. Blackmon
4. Yruretagoyena
5. Anthony Wallace
6. Mariota
7. French
8. Ekpre-Olomu
9. Ebert
10. Sumler
11. Johnstone
11. Vaughn
12. Carson
13. Fisher
14. Lake
15. Kelley
16. Hardrick
17. Coleman
18. Cassell
19. Prater
20. Kamp
21. Garrick
22. Euscher

Mariota
Carson
(QB and Primary RB (as opposed to Tazer) are the two major impact positions in the offense)

Hardrick
Wallace
(Inside linebackers are huge impact on the defense)

The O-Lineman
Not sure which ones as O-Linemen are tough to forecast out of high school but the 2 Arizona boys play mean and nasty.

I also like Mariota #1... I really think this kid is eventually going to be in the Heisman race .

I think people overrate DeAnthony. I think it is quite possible that he becomes the Sebastian Telfair of college football. We certainly have enough running backs to last for a few years, with or without him. To me, his chief value is as a symbol of the Ducks' rise to prominence on the college football scene. He is one of the first L.A. natives in my memory who USC really wanted, but who chose the Ducks instead. Hopefully, there are many more to come.

I agree, I think that Mariota is the most under rated player in this class. I see him becoming a superstar here at Oregon. As for the rest it is hard to say, but i will give it a shot.

1.Mariota
2. Lyerla
3 DAT
4.The O-Line class as a whole. I think you could make an argument that they will have the biggest impact on the future of this team. If they become anywhere near as good as we think they can. Our RB,and QB, regardless of who it is, will look great!
5.Blackmon/sumler that will be a scary duo to try and contain. One should always be streaking the sideline.

Agree about Mariota, personally I feel if he had been a starter as a JR he would have been a top 10 QB in the country and had a lot more offers than he had. The kid is a stud, and if asked to I think he could have easily ran for over a 1000yds and thrown for 3000yds. His team just killed most teams and he didn't play a lot in the 4th quarter of games and in some he didn't even play in the 3rd. Get him to 225 and he will remind people of Locker, but with accuracy.

I hope I'm wrong and he's the greatest thing in Eugene since homemade granola. I guess we'll see. The good news is, we are already loaded with talent at the position.

I would not be surprised, at all, if Kelley was really big for Oregon. From top to bottom this class is fn loaded. People say Euscher is a project...I for one cant wait to see what Coach Greenwood can do with him. The Oline as a whole ...will be scary. IMO

That's my quicklist. Any reason you had Coleman so low?

Commentators were saying his name after pretty much every play it seemed.

His value as a symbol of the Ducks will increase greatly if he comes here and lives up to the hype. If he does not pan out, it will be easier to convince LA athletes to stay at USC.
