David Marsh No. 2 Share Posted July 18, 2022 By 247 standards Oregon is at 2 5-stars I think I placed the over under at 3.5 for this year. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirklandduck Moderator No. 3 Share Posted July 18, 2022 The sheer potential of a Dante Moore/Jurrion Dickey passing offense is just too tantalizing not to speculate about, it's going to be a wild ride watching these guys develop! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Administrator No. 4 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Rivals will be updating theirs in the near future, and it will be interesting to see if he is a 5-Star there. I would think so! Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDuck No. 5 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I bet we land record number of 5* in the end... by a large margin. Some DL/OL/LB and the RB...Young, maybe others 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haywarduck Moderator No. 6 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Congrats to the young man. It is time to move on from the stars and ratings. He is a Duck, and it is about developing and becoming a Belitnikoff award winner, along with bringing a title to the program. I get the focus on stars, but not the attention on the minutiae. Does he have potential, then sign him, and develop him. Who cares about the star ratings as they become the Ducks. When there is too much focus on the star ratings a kid can become more obsessed about that accomplishment rather than the long game. Turning a 5* rating into college awards, and an NFL career isn't a sure thing. We don't want student athletes on the sideline sitting there saying, 'but I was a 5* recruit, everyone loved me when I signed!' I would actually like to see him lowered to a 3* before he comes to campus and be pissed off. I love it when you see a kid play and you can almost see the chip on his shoulder, it is so big. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck 1972 No. 7 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Hayward I agree with everything you said and when he get on campus believe me DL doesn't care how many he has. He will have to prove it on the field. But there is one thing that the star system of recruits does help. Confidence and national reputation. The more 5's than 3' we get help us in the national standings. Which brings better chances of winning since that's what it takes. Oh and getting other better recruits to come join the flock. So the more the better for the Ducks.

Who cares about the star ratings as they become the Ducks This time of year it is more fun for fans to see if we are "winning" the recruiting wars rather than the alternative of nothing as we wait for the season to start. I know for some fans they like the recruiting wars side of things more than the actual games. I for one cannot wait for fall camp to start. I am ready to see what our current players can do on the field. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haywarduck Moderator No. 9 Share Posted July 19, 2022 I suppose it just reminds me too much of other programs whose recruits magically received another star once they signed on to their school. The schools never did as well as their supposed star rating focused showed they should have. I just identify too strongly to the past, onward and forward, I suppose! I absolutely love Lanning and all he is doing, by the way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s also one of the best aspects of collegiate football. Kids growing into men. Mariota Herbert 3* recruits. 5* only got Kamatule in the door.

Charles Fischer Administrator No. 11 Share Posted July 19, 2022 The lesson is that stars indicate the percentage probability of success. A two-star can make it, but it is very low probability and you cannot construct a team of them and hope to be in the elite.
