30Duck No. 1 Share Posted January 6, 2022 It would just be the right thing to do, look what happened to "Softy". With all the talent in the state up north, JTT last year, Josh Connerly this season, Under Dan Lanning, Oregon must recruit the state of Washington better. Matt Prehm 247 sports Bobby Moore, Jonathan Stewart are from Washinton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Administrator No. 2 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I think Matt makes a great case, and has superb information to support it. But darn....aren't the State of Washington kids taught early-on to "hate Oregon?" Seems hard to overcome, but perhaps the energy of Lanning and the further decline of the Huskies can do so?

Steven A Moderator No. 3 Share Posted January 6, 2022 How many years of genital licking does it take to change a mind? Just asking. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

idontrollonshobbas No. 5 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I always feel that Washington recruits are overrated. Aaron Fentress on Talkin' Ducks this week basically stated that recruiting rankings are garbage.....that SEC 4 stars are not the same thing as Pac-12 4 stars. Back in the day, the Dawgman.com moderator evaluated the King County talent and all of them were 4 and 5 stars. Cody Bruns was that camel's final straw.

Yep, the owner of Scout.com was a Husky and Oregon verbals often lost a star and Washington verbals mysteriously received an upgrade with another star. It is why I do not use 247 Recruiting Rankings (who bought Scout.com) over time because the bias in the rankings for so many years. 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Marsh No. 7 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Ok... I did write about Oregon's failure to recruit the state of Washington last summer right after JTT decided to go to Ohio State instead. I just feel the need to do a little victory lap while also shamelessly show off. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haywarduck Moderator No. 8 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Might as well, the dawgs are doing their best to turn Washington recruits into anything other than huskies. Wasn't there a song written about that. Momma's don't let your babies grow up to be huskies. Don't let 'em lick there, and wear purple and yellow Let 'em be Ducks and Students and such. Momma's don't let your babies grow up to be huskies! 2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Log Haulin No. 9 Share Posted January 6, 2022 These kids want to win, chase girls and get to the league. If Lanning becomes what we all hope he becomes, the best of the best will flock to Eugene regardless of where they are from. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck 1972 No. 10 Share Posted January 6, 2022 As far as I know we recruited JTT as hard as we could. We were in his and many others across the country top 3. Usually the best man never the groom. And so the story goes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
