    No, i actually don't ~ but i do think that the triad of UW/ Mich, Oregon / OSU and UCLA / LSU games will influence perception regarding the 2021Pac 12 hierarchy which may impact recruiting for a percentage of recruits
    Lol. Oregon could lose to Ohio state 100-0 and UW could beat Michigan’s ass and Oregon would finish with a better class.
    Christ. You're not usually such a quook. Or did I mix you up with someone, say trueblue or DJ?
    I mean, oregons gonna get our ass beat in Colombus so it’s not that unlikely. It’s more of a knock on that kids are fucking stupid and don’t really care about the trajectory of programs. Relationship with the coaches is always #1. Barring Mario going to Miami, there’s not much that I see changing that
    When Oregon gets butt slammed in Columbus, other schools not located in Eugene will negatively recruit hard.

    Meat won't be living off his senior Wiscy rose bowl schtick anymore.
    Yes. The rose bowl was the last game Oregon played in

    Yep. This year's results will have a lot to do with next year's recruiting class, as always. Very little impact on this year's class.

    @sonics1993 @DerekJohnson @fudgie @AnyoneThatKnowsJack have any feeling for this? The early targets seem to have
    been fulfilled with the exception of a couple of guys that haven't committed yet is the way that this feels and otherwise
    this feels quiet.. is the feeling that the coaching staff is willing to wait to have a a shot at some talented guys that would
    look at us more seriously after the Michigan game ~ assuming that we have a good showing in the big house and as
    expected Oregon and UCLA get crushed in their out of conference games in the pre season?

    The other question, is there any concentrated effort to put together a composite of a booster supported packaging system
    to deliver serious level payments to existing and prospective students? That would be real inside information that probably
    only a stellar few entities like @ballz, @puppylove_sugarsteel and @DickWad would know, but hey, maybe someone has some
    knowledge that they would be willing to share.

    - If Tafiti and Otton commit, that gives them 10 commits leaving five spots open. The only other players they are recruiting are Kanu who they have a slight shot with, Jahil Tucker who isn't considering them right now, and Florence. I expect some more offers to go out in the fall after the first few games as there are players on the board that they want to see more game tape from before offering. But honestly, I don't think they really have a plan on what they are going to do with the five open spots.
    Conerly seems like the focus for all five spots.

    What about Iuli?

    And what about Morrison? Are we 100 percent out of it? Seems like he's wavering. Yes, I know water is wet and Harris sucks at recruiting blue chips.

    Found this mention from a LA-based high school coach, who kinda starred in the article with his comments, of Harris quite shocking:

    Which assistant coaches on the trail have impressed you the most?
    "I love Al Washington, the linebacker coach at Ohio State. Coach (Matt) Barnes, the DBs coach at Ohio State. (Ohio State DC) Kerry Coombs. Brent Venables, the DC at Clemson. Coach (Brandon) Streeter at Clemson. … (Defensive backs coach) Will Harris at Washington. … (Director of player personnel) Ethan Young at UCLA. Even though they’re slow, he’s thorough. Jeff Martin, who’s at USC now (as director of scouting and player relations), was really good. (Analyst) Collin D’Angelo at LSU. (Cal outside linebackers coach) Keith Heyward is a beast. Oregon, watch, they’re not going to land as many guys without Keith."

    I gotta say, as a friend of will Harris, I really hope he turns it around. Super charismatic, funny guy. Not sure what the issue is so far.

    The issue is a familiar one. This board hates coaches.

    I'll take your first hand report since it is classic confirmation bias that we? really aren't headed for Owen12 again

    Just a gut feel, but does anybody else think our best DB coach by far is buried on the depth chart?

    Is he getting friend-zoned by kids?

    Maybe he needs to start negging. Negging is an act of emotional manipulation whereby a DB coach makes a deliberate backhanded compliment or otherwise flirtatious remark to a DB recruit to undermine their confidence and increase their need for the DB coach's approval.
    Negger please
    No trigger warning for @Ballz?

    I didn't downvote the nice guys finish last analogy; I downvoted the "I didn't get laid in junior high till I turned into an asshole" bit. It's hard for me to picture a more Kirkland Junior High thing to say. They put out a lot of toolsheds. Go Royals.

    That's what I'm hearing as well... Portal activity is expected to hit terminal velocity beginning in 3-2-1...

    and, as a side note, the OP really has aged super well.

    You think recruits care about the results of individual games?

    No, i actually don't ~ but i do think that the triad of UW/ Mich, Oregon / OSU and UCLA / LSU games will influence perception regarding the 2021Pac 12 hierarchy which may impact recruiting for a percentage of recruits
    In review, I was right on the money regarding this OP analysis ~ the pecking order has clearly been established coming out of these 3 games ~ its just not exactly the order that i was necessarily expecting at that point...

    Lol. Oregon could lose to Ohio state 100-0 and UW could beat Michigan’s ass and Oregon would finish with a better class.
    Christ. You're not usually such a quook. Or did I mix you up with someone, say trueblue or DJ?
    I mean, oregons gonna get our ass beat in Colombus so it’s not that unlikely. It’s more of a knock on that kids are fucking stupid and don’t really care about the trajectory of programs. Relationship with the coaches is always #1. Barring Mario going to Miami, there’s not much that I see changing that
    When Oregon gets butt slammed in Columbus, other schools not located in Eugene will negatively recruit hard.
