He was never going to he the guy.

But Lanning should have encouraged him to transfer last year. Kid deserved better than this.

    I guess we don’t know what kind of conversations they had.

    Maybe TT wanted the challenge.

    He had his 15 secs of fame when Cook sent Nix to the sideline in Autzen last year.

    Sadly, correct.

    We're any of the Ducks here wary of the hype on Thompson? I remember him being a low four-star early in teh cycle then he was a five-star by the time he signed? Definitely looked like a big athlete with good tools but those kind of ranking explosions always gets my tin foil hat tingling.

    Greatest QB recruit of all time!!! How many of you ball washers jerked off to him? More than the amount of Doogs that jerked off to Huard.

    I think the last recruit I jerked off to was Haloti Ngata. Maybe Jonathan Stewart, partly because it pissed off UW. Since then, stars are nice but let's see it on the field.

    When he stepped onto the field for the first time years ago I wrote to the fellas via text, this guy is not it. Massive stupid looking helmet. Never remember anyone with a giant dome being a good QB.

    Also looked like he’d never played football until this year which still felt overly mechanical and stiff.

    Either you look the part or you don’t. And he didn’t.

    You suck at this.

    The helmet thing is something I never realized until I read this and actually laughed out loud. I think there was plenty of pessimism about Huard among the non-doogs so I was curious about Thompson. The Twitter fluffing was pretty unbelievable.

    As far as any Oregon recruits I can ever remember the one I remember seeming like it was a giant deal was De'Anthony Thomas. It seemed he at the very least would be a dude who gets a few highlight reels plays a year even if he was just a corner and a returner and it had to sting USC bad.
