If we're looking head to head position dick measuring (which is more important), I'd rank it like this
Offense QBs - slight edge Oregon (Garbers had the better season and has looked better in camps, Butterfield has more upside, the 2nd QB they took puts Oregon on top. As we know from the Yankoff saga, one of these guys will likely be gone in a year or two.) RBs - slight edge UW (I like all 3 but Adams+Sunday > the 1 duck guy) WRs - big UW edge (Oregon could add a 2nd WR but still wont be close to McMillan+Rome+Sawyer) TEs - big UW edge (Oregon has none, UW has Redman. If Oregon gets Yary, its even) O Line - Big UW edge (UWs o line class is one of the best in the country, Oregons highest ranked guy in composite is ranked in Mason West territory by 247)
Defense D Line - edge Oregon (they have 3 or 4 JAGs while UW will likely be taking 1 JAG. If UW somehow gets Princely, it's even) ILB - Big Oregon edge (only thing worth mentioning here is that I think Bruener is incredibly underrated and could end up being a stud. Also, not sure Sewell stays at ILB) OLB/Rush - slight edge UW (Oregon is solid here but not to Savell's level) DBs - slight edge Oregon (both have a 4 star and a few 3 stars per 247 but Manning is probably better than Covington. If Oregon gets Ringo it's a big edge to them)
Specialists (dont count but it is significant that UW has the #1 punter. Also significant because these guys kill UWs overall team ranking on the TBS sites)
So to sum it up, the classes are fairly equal in whole with UW having the much better offensive class and Oregon having the much better defensive class.
I don't see Noah Sewell being svelte enough for ILB. He's heading to the DL. Flowe is a great body. I'm happy with Togiai knowing that we have some big targets next year and that Lolohea is signed with this class. Basically Oregon and UW are keeping even with each other and it's ultimately going to come down to QB play.

The duckies will go to the transfer route for a QB - edge duckies. and they have the edge on coaching - the ducks play with an attitude which we? don't have.

Lake is not good until he proves he is
Its a no brainer for UW to go hard after Abbott Costello which is why they won't
A few of our players will get bumps (Garbers, Redman, Bruener?) and we may add a few more players before it's all over.
Murao will get a bump.
Some guys will slide down some though too. And who knows how Oregon's class will slide up or down.
Definitely too early for anyone to be declaring offseason victory.
Murao is a 5* football prospect, end of story. Fucking stupid that NFL draft projections determine that.
Eh, I like Murao a lot but you don't see a lot of five star linemen who are 6'1. If there's a guy in UW's class who should be a five star it's McMillan.

Agreed. It seems like it could still come for him. Maybe I'm wrong...

Gotta get some mileage out of this picture.
