    Here's what I herd: Oregon turned down a 4-star WR commitment after the Spring game. They told another to commit at the Summer recruiting event, the one where a few thousand people show up to TBS them on a July evening at Autzen while they run around in shorts and t-shirts.

    Not taking as many WRs as last year. And for all the shit that was talked about Josh Delgado on here the coaches have a massive hard on for him and he already sucks less than Johnny Johnson or Brenden Schooler. I know SAC's recruiting analysis predicted Delgado would be a major bust, so I'm shocked as anyone.

    If you do want some bad Oregon news, Bryan Addison is always injured and the only thing he's trying hard in is to be a bust.

    Okay, all this bullshit caused me to go watch his film. Think we can split the difference here. I like him but I don’t love him. Certainly can help a team, but for us, might rather have Roman Wilson than Johnny Wilson. We’ve got the big guys that aren’t real sudden. I’d prefer the speed.

    Lol. S/O to the Oprea Singer Mr.4.3!

    Because a 6”6 guys running a 4.59 as a junior is definitely not fast enough.
    What was gee jr’s 40?

    Fast enough for what?

    Difference is that Baccellia is maybe 5-10, 170, while Roman Wilson is probably going to play at exactly the size Dante Pettis was, 6-1, 185. With the same kind of quick breaks as Dante. You don't want another Dante Pettis?

    Back to my original question. Fast enough for what? Because we're not measuring total overall athleticism. I would agree with you that a 220-lb. athlete running 4.59 might be more impressive than a 170-lb. guy running 4.45. But at the end of the day the 4.59 guy is still not outrunning any CBs. And honestly doesn't really leverage much threat of the go route. So he's a jump ball guy. I'd generally rather have the guy that gets open.

    Last 10 years I checked guys 6-2+, 215+, 4.55 or slower. Basically three guys with any success (NFL): Allen Robinson (great), Devin Funchess (decent), Kelvin Benjamin (fine for one year, then bad).

    What does 2016 film have to do with anything?

    I think it’s pretty funny that Oregon sells WR’s on their usage in the offense as if they haven’t asked their receivers to run the same 4 routes since the end of Belotti. First hand, I know Dillon Mitchell wasn’t happy about his role/development and that’s while playing with a talent like Herbert and plenty of specific formations to get him open as the first read. I wouldn’t be happy either if I was a legit 6’1 at the combine, ran a 4.4, had good film against Cal, UDUB, & Utah, and still got taken in the 7th round.



    Go hose Wilson the fuck off, turn on some 2016 film, tell him he will never play with a QB as bad as this, and with Puka (and Jalen McMillan but I don’t wanna Doog), you’ll see less double teams than Kevin Durant does on the Warriors. I’m hoping to get the last visit, but that July 27 Oregon date is looking pretty scary after our yearly winter/spring homage to Keith Gilbertson’s recruiting strategy.

    Don't know why this matters... Uw isn't recruiting him apparently.
