    Oregon is dirty. They can easily paint Pete as an elitist image and skew his recruiting tendencies.

    It certainly can't go ignored. Chrystaballz would probably give up a family member for a recruit.

    Rivalry continues to bubble.

    I don't think Pete is a racist. But it's like saying 'i don't think Pete actually wants his dog to bit people' - if the dog bites people and Pete explains it away every time as a product of unique circumstances, you have to be like 'does Pete REALLY want the dog not to bite people if he's not doing anything to prevent it?'

    Yeah, there may be an issue of bias and you didn’t throw the racist term around but more referring to the negative recruiting. Btw, I heard it was a player saying this and not the staff at Oregon. That was the insinuation at 247, I was told.
    I actually heard from a relatively reliable source that it was a concerted effort by the staff. I don't know specifically who.

    But honestly, the data is damning. So, it's an easy point to make. If I were Oregon, the first fucking thing I would say to Sav'ell's parents is - 'we know you want your son to play close to home. How about playing somewhere that isn't using him up and doesn't respect him or his culture? Almost all players on UW have one white parent and usually the white parent was dominant in acculturating the kids. It's a white washed program. Here, we don't think there's anything wrong with being black, and we aren't trying to turn Sav'ell into a white guy.'
    Denny, Baze has more cred here than you...and he is absolutely the bottom of the barrel. That puts you in on a very cold planet

    Their coaches know they are inferior to UW's and that UO sees itself as some national power. They aren't getting a 5 year rebuild. Does Leach/Shaw do this kind of shit? They aren't exactly dirty, just really desperate.

    This baze guy is sitting by his phone 18hrs a day, pounces immediately on every post Pup makes, within 5 seconds. Baze, this is weird shit dude. Ridgeway at least waited a day to commit his hanus crimes. No wonder you didnt get a date in HS. Chicks have a 6th sense

    You are really starting to get boring.

    While we are on this subject I think it is pretty disturbing we have no 1st Nation representation around this bitch. Surely they can find one kid who isn't drunk and can play football.

    I bet they can find one kid that isn't drunk and play a mean game of lacrosse!

    This thread is fucking embarassing.

    I'm actually surprised at the level of reasonable conversation. Impressed that even ballz didn't go aids on the thread. Disappointed caps lock DDY hasn't made an appearance though.

    This thread is fucking embarassing.

    How's that any different than any other thread here?



    Strong argument.

    I am a Duck fan and this is part and parcel of the “everything is racist” cultural milieu.

    That's because you're white and see things through the white people lens.

    Oh, we just happened to not recruit Tre'Shaun (Sav'ell's friend) and we are just happening to not recruit Gee Scott and DJ Rodgers (insert white people 'case by case basis' excuse here). And now Justin Flowe, Kayvon and Darnell Washington are all guys that haven't really been on our radar.

    And, under Pete we have gotten one white parent or African parents on almost everyone... white people are like 'this is nitpicky' because they don't understand how stupid that sounds to people who live in black culture (which is not a monolith). This is like a little kid thinking that them saying they didn't eat a cookie when chocolate chips are all over their face is convincing.

    White people are like 'HOW DARE YOU ACCUSE ME OF RACISM' and black people are like 'uh, look around'.

    I don't think Pete is a racist, but I think Pete defines OKG in such a way that it so heavily slants toward slow strategy 'at least one white or African' parent, private school light skin u kids.

    If you don't understand the difference between Kevin King's household and Aaron Fuller's or Ariel Ngata's then you just aren't really familiar with modern black life in America on any level.

    This is dumb. Rogers and Gee Scott are half white, so your "we only recruit players with 1 white parent, polynesians, or black kids with African names" schtick doesnt really apply.

    Ive said it before...our recruiting is impacted by demographics. We dont have as many black players because not a ton of black people live on the west coast. Also, you dont see a ton of polys and a chinese american safety at fucking Iowa or Kentucky.

    This shit is actually really embarrassing for some here and is very flawed
    This is fucking retarded. Seattle is way more diverse than Eugene. Demographics have nothing to do with it. Oregon is pulling in kids of all races from all parts of the country. You can get anyone to go anywhere with a good enough sales pitch. We're just using a sales pitch that only appeals to slow strategy try-hards. Oregon's staff could have persuaded Thibodeaux to live on the fucking moon before our staff could have persuaded him to live in Seattle. Not saying I want Oregon's staff, so don't twist, but it's all about the sales pitch.

    It's hard.

    It takes a minute.

    It's a process.
