Posted 1 hour ago1 hr No. Looks like we've officially lost a running back from the room. But did we really lose anything? oregonliveOregon running back Makhi Hughes asks to redshirtHughes did not travel with the Ducks to Penn State.
1 hour ago1 hr No. It’s the best decision for the young man’s career. Oregon’s RB room is stacked and 2 true freshman appear to be the most talented of the position group. I wish Makhi Hughes the best and hope he can find someplace to star.
1 hour ago1 hr No. Smart decision. But I don't see any mention that he is for sure going to transfer. Sitting out a year to develop and learn the system and then make the decision at the end of season what is best for him.Hopefully he takes this as a great opportunity and steps up to the best scout team RB for the rest of the season.
26 minutes ago26 min No. No it at all surprising. In truth I wouldn't be surprised if Hill and Davidson start taking over the RB room and rotation. They were by far the most effective backs against PSU.
23 minutes ago23 min No. If Hughes does transfer out, which is likely, it is an incredible recruiting pitch for Lanning. When he says "if you're good enough, you're old enough" he absolutely means it. I don't think it would detract from transfers because we have seen so many transfers become major impact players and boost their draft stock. But for prep recruits... They have proof they can make a major impact as true freshman if they have what it takes.
19 minutes ago19 min No. Not sure, but I suspect that it’s not as simple as saying “I am going to transfer.” He needs to have a place to go that wants and needs him. If I recall correctly, lots of young players put their names in the portal and there are no takers.
