“ On Monday’s “Recruiting with Andrew Nemec" on 1080 The FAN, FSP CEO/head coach Tracy Ford joined the show to talk about an Oregon visit that went “above and beyond” even what his program has seen at Alabama, the growth and development of Ducks commit/FSP linebacker Keith Brown and Oregon’s (fast-rising) chances to land five-star wide receiver Troy Franklin.

Ford on Oregon’s energy compared to other top programs:

“Man, honestly I think they are probably a step above and beyond as far as the whole atmosphere that they bring and that energy,” he said. “You’ll be in a place like Alabama, a lot more... kind of just routine. You go to Alabama and it’s kind of routine, it’s kind of what you do. ...You come in and you see jerseys on the wall and they say, ‘Hey, the only thing different with these jerseys is these guys went first round.’ But you got to Oregon and they are just in your face, hooting and hollering. A lot of people originally thought, especially when Mario’s staff first came in, they were all fluff, all talk, not really no action. But when you rack’em and stack’em and see what they’re doing, it’s like, ‘These guys just won the Pac-12. They just won the Rose Bowl.’ So whatever they are doing it isn’t fake, it isn’t smoke and mirrors.”
