David Marsh No. 7 Share Posted July 10 Anyone see that McNutt (one of the top safeties in the country) schedule a commitment date to July 19th. Two days after Pickett (July 17th). It kinda smells like a double five star commitment is coming soon. And with this new commitment... Oregon has momentum!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Ducky No. 8 Share Posted July 11 Nice to fill up a roster with big bodies that have potential, go Dan. NIL or not money does buy happiness. The blue blood programs have been doing it for years. Now maybe it’s our turn to take advantage like never before. Those programs, and we all know who they are, can all they want. Quite frankly I don’t really give a Darn.

Mudslide No. 12 Share Posted July 11 So, this gets asked every couple of years. And being that I'm 9/10ths the way to ancient, I think I can be forgiven for my forgetfulness. I've wondered why he's counted with 2025 commit ratings when he is going on a 2-year LDS mission? He won't be on the team until 2027. Also, when does he begin to count against the roster limit of 85? '27, I assume. So many questions. So little brain left ............................... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recruiting sites aren't in the business of predicting when/if recruits will show up at the schools they sign with (for whatever reason, including missions...kids can change their minds when it comes to that also), so they always count towards the class they sign with, regardless. A signee doesn't count towards the scholarship limit until they actually enroll in school and become part of the team. Needless to say, the whole mission aspect makes this verbal far less impactful than it otherwise would have been. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provided everyone sticks around, scary to think that Dallas Wilson and Dakorian Moore will have already been in the program for a year when Bair joins that WR room. Not sure who will be chucking the rock to them yet, but in a perfect world Dante Moore redshirts this year, breaks out in 2025 and leads Oregon to a NC in 2026. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, Oregon can get a huge lead and Dante can play most of the second half in some of the earlier games so that he is ready, if needed. Shouldn’t be a problem against the cupcakes on our schedule like Oregon State… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
