Even with the bigger NIL offer I'd be leery of TA&M just because of their recent history with trying to cobble together rosters with enormous amounts of money, didn't work out too well for Jimbo Fisher.

Golden opportunity for certain players to make a big impression. To my mind: Last chances - Gary Bryant Jr. (final year) - Jurrion Dickey (3 years now, time to show something) - Malik Benson (final year) Big chance to break out: - Kenyon Saddiq (could we see 1,000 yards?) - Dakorien Moore (500+ yards would be a stellar 1st year) - Kyler Kasper (showed potential before injury last season)

Apparently not as much as Ryder thought!

I can understand why he put tOSU and PSU up so high. However both of them are dealing with new DCs coming in which often leads to disruption for a while as the team adjusts to the new defensive schemes. I think both will have spotty defensive performances for the first 4-5 games of the season which puts OBD's game with PSU right on that cusp...if Franklin's guys are still getting used to the new DC then our Ducks may have a better shot than expected over on their turf.

What is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

Didn't Texas A&M just go through this a few years ago? Didn't turn out well from my recollection.

Both are top tier players, however one of them just happens to be a wiley veteran as well!

Hard not to listen to mom. That being said, recent QB development results heavily favor OBD so we could see Curtis a couple years from now for all we know.

I think if OBD can get him, Ryder Lyons is a better fit in WS’s offense since he’s much more of a dual threat type of QB. His size and talent remind me of Bo Nix, plus the 1 year mission he’s taking leaves some extra time for the already talented QB room to spread out a bit.

In the end I think his parents influenced his decision due to the distance.

OBD at #4 on his list feels high given the amount of turnover at starting positions. Right now my gut says they're top 10 rather than top 5 (though I'd love to be proven wrong).

I don't know if that would have made much difference. His biggest obstacle is the same as DG's...concerns about his size.

Two Duck linemen going in the first round is a red letter day!
