    Yeah sure nobody knows yet. I know. Taggart's hired assistants with good track records, he's turned around Western Kentucky and South Florida, yadda yadda.

    He's recruiting great. Let's see who signs, and what Willie and his staff (LOL!) do with em.

    I go back and forth on Oregon because you have talent, but Taggart does seem like a retard to me.

    Your old assistants were pretty good too, DC withstanding. Leavitt is a huge upgrade even if he sucks.

    Cut the heads off the snake and punking a 24 year old wannabe journalist is some little league shit. Losing good in state recruits to UW has to hurt too. Not trying to rub it in, but you know that's not good.

    A somewhat tough team that plays hard should be able to win 8-9 games with Freeman, the other RB, Herbert, and Carrington. I'm still surprised it fell apart so quickly.

    The only reason Oregon fell off so quickly was because of the move from a very mediocre defensive coordinator to one that literally didn't know how to coach a defense, at all. The offense still averaged around 35 points per game.
    Which is amazing considering how bad O line play was. Getting Carrington back was Yuge.
    Really, why? What has he done?

    Dude is Jaydon Mickens South.
    Are we talking about the same kid? I don't think so. Following up on another thread, I've read publications projecting him as a second round pick. I doubt that will happen based on the point you made earlier, but Jaydon Mickens? I don't think so.

    Ask the Ducks if they consider Carrington important to their offense.

    Again, this is the guy who more or less lit up Washington's defense in Seattle for 2 scores and 125 yds. receiving. Where were you?

    The only time I remember him disappearing was in the national title game, because he was suspended, and they could have used him.

    He's been a fairly big-play receiver for them.
    The biggest strike against him is he was better as a freshman than he was as a junior.

    That shits always scary.

    He needs to have a huge senior year if he wants to get picked.

    I think that has more to do with quality of QB play than anything else

    If so he'll have a chance to demonstrate that this year. I expect their QB play to be better than it has since his frosh year. If it isn't that's a blackeye for Taggot, IMO.

    His sophomore year, in which he missed the first six games of the season, he had 32 catches, over 600 yds and 6 TDs. I'd say his sophomore year, on a pro forma basis, was better than his freshman year. It is abundantly clear to me that whatever happened last year has to be viewed in context ... the entire team was broken, and QB play was compromised. I will always believe that part of what got Slingblade cooked was his inability to see the obvious that Prukop was a disaster and waited to play him until #5 Chip-on-Shoulder Washington came to town with their best defense in years. Duh.

    The other thing to keep in mind is that, even last year, Oregon has choices in terms of skill guys. Carrington is good, but he's not so great that he's going to get all the touches.

    I think he plays like he did his junior year and can show some durability it's good enough to get him picked by someone. 6'2" guys who can run and show body control and good hands are like candy to the NFL.

    Then again, Stacy Coley lasted until the 7th round ... around the same size at 6'1", faster and a little more athletic than Carrington and more dangerous after the catch. But like Carrington, he's a little on the skinny side and somewhat injury prone.

    Who knows.

    Agreed. Herbert's a good QB who now has sufficient snaps under his belt.

    Much depends on what they've been able to do with the O line.

    This exactly.

    Misses the biggest game of his life for weed and production drops from freshman to junior year.

    I called him Jaydon Mickens South because he is hyped by the quooks/doogs, makes a few flashy plays, doesn't get any better ever, and overall doesn't put up the numbers to meet his hype.

    I remember when Sark pulled this off 4 years ago. I think 3 of the 8 guys actually signed with UW, and only 1 of them (Qualls) lasted past the 1st year.

    Qualls and Lavon.
    So it was a good day

    doesn't get any better ever

    this is simply not true.

    Season; catches; yds.; avg. per catch; TDs and gaymes played
    2016 43 606 14.1 55 5 12
    2015 32 609 19.0 47 6 7
    2014 37 704 19.0 64 4 10

    In 2015, as you can see, he played in three fewer games and was nonetheless within 100 yds. and 5 catches of a pretty solid freshman year ... and scored two more touchdowns. Getting better.

    In 2016, catches went up, yds. were flat and TDs were down 1 and avg. per catch was down. Prukop played the first 5 games of 2016, and if you didn't watch, he was an unmitigated disaster. They made the switch to a freshman who can throw just in time for Washington to roll in with a giant chip on their shoulder and their best defense in years. Oregon, by then, had mailed in the season. Not sure I'd read too much into 2016 for any Duck.

    Keep in mind the guy has been sharing space with a lot of other good skill guys ... he was never going to put up gaudy statistics, particularly with the emergence of Nelson.

    and overall doesn't put up the numbers to meet his hype.

    I'm not sure his hype is all that hype as you suggest. He's a dangerous receiver; he's not the next Jerry Rice. Nobody I'm aware of will say anything more. Oregon was, and should have been, happy to get him back.

    He'd start at Washington.
