    A few interesting tidbits from Shipley's commitment article from his hometown paper.

    "The area around Eugene, they don’t have their NFL team. Their NFL team is Oregon," he noted. "Everybody in Eugene just bleeds that green and yellow. It’s a great, great vibe to that city. You’re like a celebrity there if you play football at Oregon. I actually like a little town like that, so it’s a great fit for me.”

    Coaches at Oregon are expecting Shipley to play defensive end and told him that he'll have an opportunity to start as a true freshman. Playing early was important to Shipley, so even if he doesn’t start during that first year, that the coaches envision that as a possibility carried some weight with Shipley, he said.


    I'm confused, I thought it was the UW coaches who shamelessly promised playing time in order to get recruits to sign

    There was no promise. There is an opportunity for sure.

    A depth chart is pretty easy to figure out. There is definitely early playing time available in 2020.

    Quality recruits don't worry about depth charts.

    I haven’t watched the video so he could be good ... who knows

    But the vibe I get looking at his pictures and interviews is that he’s a dude bruh type that fits the Sark, Cristoballz, etc side of the world.

    Best of luck to him but he’s probably a JAG on the UW depth chart and figured that out

    TL, DR: WDWHA

    You have to be kidding. Outside of the program’s prestige and location, it’s the biggest draw for a program.

    Coaches are a much bigger draw than depth chart
