Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
WR group - Isaah Crocker standing out
The WR group in general is deep and Crocker adds more depth. Oregon needs a star to emerge though.
Hopefully the coaches split out Webb and Devon Williams takes the next step.

Maybe you might actually have something to add about the Harmon post. All Benny gave a shit about was whining about the writer. Now you come along and whine about me. Grow up........”DUDE” my ass. This shows what a juvenile you are. HaHa ha ha ha
You need some new material. 😂😂😂😂
Just another superfluous post to childishly attack rather than have a substantive conversation about the subject at hand.
It’s so easy to get under the skin of ignorant morons. Ha ha ha ha
From Oregon’s Troy Franklin to Patrick Herbert, 10 Ducks underclassmen who are turning heads this spring
“He (JJ3) )proved himself long ago, and one would think he has earned some peace in the final spring of his college career.
It’s just that the kids aren’t having any of it.
“They’re hungry,” Johnson said of the underclassmen wide receivers he’s going against every day this spring.
He has embraced the challenge of leading an improving roster of young receivers. Devon Williams, Mycah Pittman, Kris Hutson and Josh Delgado are underclassmen returning who caught multiple passes in 2020.
And Johnson isn’t the only veteran fending off a youth movement this spring. The fruits of Oregon’s recruiting classes are showing up in the secondary, along both sides of the line and even at quarterback.
But it’s the two gems of Oregon’s 2021 recruiting class at wide receiver that lead off this list of 10 underclassmen turning heads this spring.
Troy Franklin, freshman, wide receiver
Dont’e Thornton, freshman, wide receiver
Johnson, who started all seven games in 2020 at Z, certainly saw enough early this spring to get a feel for his new teammates.
“Troy’s popped out a lot,” Johnson said. “His hands are second to none from what I’ve seen.
“Don’te’s been doing a great job. He continues to get better, and he’s making plays for us.”
With Oregon’s depth at the position, a slow start could leave any newcomer behind. But Moorhead said both Franklin and Thornton have taken advantage of enrolling early and are learning quickly.
“They’re continuing to push each other,” Moorhead said. “The older guys are helping the younger guys, and that speaks to the culture of the program to have (players) competing but still working to be good teammates.”
"A couple of guys have to be pointed out, number one, Isaah Crocker today made some unbelievable plays and has had a really good spring. There is a lot to look forward to with him," said Cristobal.

The Atlantic article is from the 15th. I think Crocker continue to stand out since that time. Kris Hutson is the other that keeps breaking off long passes. These two should have a legit shot at increasing their impact next season. Franklin and Thornton only have to break the rotation if they’re truly special.
Going for the 3 peat this year 😁😁
as third in the north.
Might want to be the best team in your own state first
