    I wonder what ever happened to Potasi Moala or whatever that kids name was who jumped ship as soon as he got another offer
    Moala is a backup OL for UCLA.

    It's nice. Hopefully these kids stick. 5 4-stars in 24 hours is kind of unprecedented for us? even when we? were good.

    One thing I've heard is that this is part of the reason Taggart cleaned house, was because the old staff, and everyone connected with all that program continuity approached recruiting with a "aw shucks we're little Oregon, and we're just happy to be a hat on the table" attitude. Taggart's approach is that Oregon is a blue-chip program with blue-chip facilities, blue-chip donor support, and blue-chip coffee cups.

    Taggart brought 30 4* and 5* guys to Eugene for the Spring gayme, on unofficial visits. That in itself impresses me. Now he got almost a quarter of them to commit, same day, impresses me even moar. I know Leavit and Cristobal can coach. So, this has me feeling pretty happy.

    A Doog/Quook is anyone that says something along the lines of "This shows you how good of a job Coach X is doing and recruits better jump on fast or they will lose their spot!" after one good commit verbals.

    Smart people realize that if you have to get overly excites about recruiting then your coach is either brand new or not very good.

    I don't remember following recruiting at all when Chip was the head coach. He would sign 25 kids and develop them.

    I remember these comments from Sark's first year. Holt has the D looking really sound! Man, this young staff can really recruit!

    Enjoy the wilderness, quooks. Pete will pick the score when you visit this year.

    Good for the taggot, looking forward to Oregon football being the UW bball recruiting juggernaut.

    Yeah sure nobody knows yet. I know. Taggart's hired assistants with good track records, he's turned around Western Kentucky and South Florida, yadda yadda.

    He's recruiting great. Let's see who signs, and what Willie and his staff (LOL!) do with em.

    1/6 = almost a quarter?

    The only fraction we trust in Oregon is 9/10th of a cent.
