Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Let's look at the facts.... Oregon's 2023 Class Signed: 29 signed, Sixteen are 4/5-Stars with a Rivals class ranking of No. 9 in the nation. Washington's 2023 Class Signed: 21 signed, Six are 4/5-Stars with a Rivals class ranking of No. 24 in the nation. Oregon's 2024 Class of Verbals: 11 Commits, Seven are 4/5-Star with a Rivals ranking of No. 7 in the nation. Washington's 2024 Class of Verbals: 3 Commits, None are 4/5-Star, (three 3-Star) and a ranking of No. 58? Quotes on a Husky Site: "Are the recruiting rankings biased toward Oregon?" "...there is a profound bias in favor of rankings of Oregon liens as well as predictions toward Oregon commitments…" "Oregon gets preferential treatment in recruiting rankings and polls, it is what it is. Money talks in this world and they have plenty of it and anybody who thinks Phil doesn’t throw his power around to get what he wants is completely clueless to how college sports ( and the world for that matter) operate." "I think the bigger issue for Oregon classes appearing overrated is that their recruiting clout is strong with Nike influence and PK $, but their recruiting evaluation, player development and coaching has been somewhat average. So they sign classes that are better on paper than the on field results. We passed them over under Petersen and quickly did again under DeBoer. We also look stronger next season. As long as we hire top coaches I will let Oregon worry about the disconnect with star ratings vs team performance." "The actual talent at Washington will be significantly greater than the perceived talent at Oregon. This is certainly the case now with a roster that has a far lower recruiting rating at Washington outperforming a higher rated Oregon roster. All indications from both DeBoer's and Lanning’s performance to date are that this will continue moving forward until Lanning leaves." "I think Dan Lanning got protected by Smart at Georgia. I think he's overwhelmed as a head coach." Mr. FishDuck believes that once the classes of Chris Peterson play out--the talent level at Washington cannot be rescued by great coaching or opponent mistakes. Too big a gap... 1 1 3 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 7 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Before UO's revamped D lays smack down on fuskies in Seattle: Lanning is in over his head. After UO's revamped D lays smack down on fuskies in Seattle: Of course Uncle Phil just goes out and buys Georgia's D coordinator. Before UO's revamped D lays smack down on fuskies in Seattle: Duck recruits are over rated by a rigged system.

Steven A Moderator No. 8 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Funny how an injury to one Qb (Bo) and lack of one at OSU elevated them into the blue blood sphere. Bottom line, how do they manage to make such good wine up there with such sour grapes? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDuck No. 10 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Mutts be da akidemick prowess, them is more prowesserer than us. Lien on me, baby. DeBoer is a coach who seems to do more with less, but Lanning and staff will prove to be great coaches I think. As Charles says, in the end the talent gap will be too much for the perpil pooch muttts. Go find a hydrant you whiners 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augduck No. 12 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Whew- there's a whole lot in that husky rant that is downright painful. Their standard mantra when they lost someone on the recruiting trail to UO was that he was 'NOKG'. Then they moved to verse two of the song which is always that Phil is paying people. They were sweating bullets when Junior Adams left ( 'why would be want to go to Eugene' was the cry and it quickly became 'he never was a good coach anyway'). Now we have again moved the goal posts and the new iteration is that DL was protected by Kirby and is in over his head. There's just so much prowess and creativity in dawgland I can't keep up. Waiting patiently for the next verse. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
