    He’s good. Good pull.

    Not an OKG. Strongarm didn't want him.
    I didn't want him, UW didn't want him, and USC didn't want him. But great pickup for Oregon no doubt. If you're in a position in which you have to take overrated guys that are soft and don't consistently play hard, Thibodeaux is the #1 guy available for a school like Oregon to get. Elite talent but the intangibles you're looking for like work ethic, effort, and attitude aren't there. You can bring a thorough bred to water but you can't make him drink. What's the over/under on how many years he's at Oregon before transferring to FSU?
    It's even dumber than I could have possibly imagined
    How'd Jalen Hall work out for ya? When an elite West coast talent isn't recruited by SC or UW you should probably take notice.

    Elite spin zone artist right here.
    That's all straight up fact. UW and SC didn't want him and stopped recruiting him a long time ago. Did you miss the epic trashing of this kid on the Duck board by Biggins? He said he doesn't play hard, take entire halves off in games, and Kayvon's uncle said to him "I don't know what it's going to take to get this kid to play hard".

    No one can squander his talent like Oregon will. Rejoice.

    Great pull. Iron sharpens iron and having tosh raiding California is a seriously terrible development for the conference.

    I just hope this doesn't build Oregon momentum that pulls Ford to Oregon

    I don’t think so. Oregon is targeting Chris Steele and Ishmael Sopher. I think they are done at WR, and to be honest, I don’t think they were really in contention for Ford. Ford is a USC vs Washington battle. If he goes to USC, they’ll probably blow his talent. If he goes to UW, the kid will be special.
    This is best for Sopsher, no way Saban lets Oregon outbid him twice.

    Unless Phil is stuffing the bag, I think you’re right
