God I am bored...posting 3 times in a row...

Is it possible to get Speedy Noll out of Louisanna? He's only 5'10. He'd fit perfectly with Oregon as the second coming of DAT. Problem is, LSU is chasing him hard.

Seems unlikely. We still have a hard time pulling people from SEC. We did get underrated Williams last year, though many places had filled up before he committed.

Players Most likely to commit if we offered currently
Wilkins
Hale
Hoim
Dunmore the younger

Mixon is interested, but we haven't offered yet. His recruitment would be a marathon.
Scoby might have HS course issues that might be a problem, because of school transfers.

Of those offered
Bunting seems happy, and we got on the ball before others. But still a long time and expect more big time offers.
Only big offers for OL Jones and Crosby. Crosby planning to visit for Junior day. Both have a good shot of trying to commit early.

Still early. We don't take commits till late usually, maybe Helfrich will change that. Still not expecting a commit until May.
 
Well that's good to hear. Will he hold camps and invite those guys, or maybe give out offers at "The Opening"?

Also, whats the news on Nic Purcell's eligbility? Is it still in limbo?

We don't give out offers, or do recruiting of any time during the Opening usually.. We also generally don't have visits. A player could maybe do an unofficial, but that leaves a lot on the players own dime, as it can negate the home flight that nike usually pays for.
 
Oh I see. I thought that's when couches do offers...

Also, the top prospect in state I heard is Connor Humphreys. He's an Oregon lean I assume right? I heard OSU and BYU along with Washington offered early.
 
Humphries grew up rooting for the Beavs and Boise St. Last I heard he said it seemed like UO was cooling on him, but who knows?

STOMP
 
recent DB offer McGraw has states Oregon was dream school, after visit will pro Sbably lead. S Jamal Adams just got offered by Oregon, is friends with amako twins.
 
You mean Mattrel McGraw? If so, nabbing him would be huge. He's in SEC country.

Stealing Adams away from Texas and Choklahoma is also very nice.
 
yes that McGraw. A recent interview with him made it sound nearly a foregone conclusion that he'll be playing out West rather then the SEC

Oregon is doing their due diligence on a decent sized OG named Damien Mama. He claims to be in regular contact with Greatwood and other Duck coaches. As a side interest to seeing them win games, I like it when they add guys with great names and he'd definitely qualify. The highlight tape I saw of him revealed he moves very well.

STOMP
 
That's great.

Getting Mama would be huge. He's a big nasty guard that even has Alabama on his list. If Oregon does offer him and stave him off as well as Stanford(they want to copy Bama after all) they will need a BCS Bowl win, or have Greatwood mesh well with him

Huh?
 
Mama is a big 350 pound guard, and I think he'd want in on either a Pro-style offense or a school that makes 1st round O-linemen casually. However, if he's mobile and quick for his size, we could get him.

We just need a big season to prove we can still win with Helfrich, thus win recruits.
 
with their returning talent + a favorable schedule, there is good reason to project that Helfrich's first season at the helm will be very successful. We'll see and all, but I'm not too worried about whether top kids will still want to come to Eugene following this season as there are many great reasons to be a Duck.

DM being 350 today doesn't mean that will always be his weight as we've regularly seen lineman's weight fluctuate once they get to Oregon. Between their nutritional program and the sorts of workouts they design for each guy, physical changes are the norm. 6'7 Olineman Everett Benyard and Mark Asper spring to mind as guys who at times during their Duck careers were near 350... Benyard came in at 305 during last season. While he may also project well in a Pro Style offense, if Greatwood feels the kid has the ability to excel in his system, thats a pretty good endorsement.

STOMP
 
Hopefully. If Greatwood has confidence, I believe in him, as well as Oregon's nutritional program.

Also, we offered Jon Lockett and Jamal Adams. How are our chances of nabbing Adams from Texas and Choklahoma? Lockett likes Notre Dame too, and I wouldn't blame him, so it will be tough to grab him.
 
Ducks offer Bama LB Rashaan Evans

Too bad he'll want to stay at home for either Saban or Malzahn. We get him, I will do the jig in front of a Walmart.

Still, nice to see us go after southern prospects.
 
McGraw may commit after April visit, at least I would not be superseded that happens. Same for Crosby after junior day.
 
Junior Day is when high school prospects who will become seniors are invited to host like a 7 on 7 and Line drills right?
 
Ducks offer one of rivals few 5*s from the West, DAT style do it all athlete Adoree Jackson.... SoCal schools are thought to be the favorite

Isn't LSU in the mix? I think he would want to stay, simply because of the quality of DBs at UCLA, and of course, Under Stanford Control.

Stanford could be in the mix as well, but nice to see Oregon take the intiative.
 
I looked around for some JUCO DTs in 2013 that could use an Offer or two:

http://247sports.com/Player/Lauren-Jackson-8142

http://247sports.com/Player/Demetrius-Campbell-22237

http://247sports.com/Player/Jordan-Turner-19860

With shallow depth on the interior D-line, it wouldn't help to offer these boys for 2013.

For Juco 2014

http://247sports.com/Player/Risean-Broussard-25184

Just saying. Our D-line needs some help and we have 5 spaces available. Wouldn't hurt to try to get 1 or 2 of these boys.
 
I'll be surprised if they don't take at least on JUCO DT. True freshman almost always need some seasoning, but Oregon has PT available in 2014.

STOMP
 
PT? What's a PT.

They should try to offer one now. There are still some JUCO prospects out there without a commitment and they would love to learn the defense so that next year they can be starters. That's what I'd do.

Anyway to talk to couches at all about this?
 
/facepalm

Oh silly me. So outside of interior D-line, what else will we need? Secondary? LBs?
 
hehe.

Secondary could get mighty interesting, if Ifo, and T-Mitch get good draft stock reviews. That would leave Dior Mathis and Troy Hill. I know the staff is high on Seisay coming in. But could take some time to develop. And one of the Amoako's plays Corner.
 
Not to mention Adoree' Jackson is interested in USC. He could start right away if Ifo leaves early(people have him as a mid-1st rounder). He's the 2nd best prospect in Cal(or 3rd behind Luatua and Chryst) so nabbing him alongside McGraw would be quite nice.
 
looks like I am 10 min late lol
 
Wonderful! 247 sports has him as Hawaii's #1 player. This is big time!

Glad to have a big Hawaiian like him aboard. Hopefully he can recruit on his own ala Shane Morris.
