Tray.

I can't tell you how many times I saw a recruits profile and assumed my pronunciation of his name was correct, then started calling him that at games before I realizing how goofy I sounded. . Forever I thought Lache was "Latch eh". And I thought Carson's name was pronounced 'trah', so thanks for the clarification.

Interesting. I thought it was "Lashey".

Well, that was closer than a writer for ESPN(?) had it. He wrote it as "Lane." Now it is one thing to mispronounce an unusual name, it is entirely another to be an "expert" writer spouting your knowledge about Oregon football and not even get the spelling close on a recent top recruit.'s name. Sheesh! These guys need to do their homework when writing about teams to a national audience.

Before Darron Thomas was in the line-up... I thought his name was pronounced Da'Ron (like LaBron). Duh!

That's how I thought it was pronounced before he got here. It's just an odd way to spell or pronounce a name.

This is what my friends and I refer to him as, but we say it actually knowing that it is mispronounced.

Latravion.

I'm hoping that one day we will have a DLine recruit with the name Latarian. Latarian Milton. He likes to do hoodrat stuff with his friends
