Boyd to make decision Tuesday

PrintAccording to rivals Tajh Boyd 4 star Quarterback out of Hampton VA has a press conference set for 5 pm eastern time where he will make his final choice. He has boiled it down to Oregon, Ohio State and late arrival and maybe the Duck's largest threat Clemson.
At this Point I'd like to say i'm confident He will choose the green and yellow. But i'm a little scared the distance may be too far and Clemson may have just stolen Boyd. I honestly don't see him going to OSU and playing 3 years behind Pryor, seems counter productive for a guy who seems to want to play right away.

probably clemson
I think he’d be doing some waiting here, too. Behind Masoli and Thomas. Sure would be nice to have him though.
Thanks for the post.
Have fun storming the castle!
And whats the deal with the one of three ad's on the side being "click here to play duck hunt"
I was on the Dawg pound and BTD and i just thought it was a joke.. Nope its all over SBnation haha.
oh, so maybe
he will cast his lot with us considering our recent history of needing so much depth at qb.
Very exciting.
Have fun storming the castle!
Honestly?
I think he takes Clemson.

I second that, I read that Clemson is his Dad's choice.
Not always a determing factor but something to think about.
To go out and ruin somebody's dreams like that, it feels real good," Oregon receiver Jaison Williams.
If he comes great if not oh well
If he goes somewhere else because of the depth chart he is a girl anyway. I have read some of his quotes and he says he could compete anywhere he went. I for one do not care if he shows up. I do think that he could be a good qb in our system, but he seems to have the im such a badass attitude. Besides his dad seems to love what Clemson was selling. First I read that his dad said distance was not a factor because he would move the family. Today after the Clemson trip his dad has changed his tune by saying how expensive it is to move. I agree it is expensive and unless they get hooked up with the folks that set up reggie bush’s family it would cost them alot to move across the country. I just hate the kids who think that they should be qb 1 right out of the gates. Oh yeah i read somewhere that Bryce Brown was not happy about the OC choise at the U. Anyone know any truth to that?
A little more on Brown.
A Scout.com article today had Bryce saying he was waiting to see where some of the non-committed OL recruits were going to land. One of the five he specifically mentioned, 3-star OG Malcom Bunche gave a verbal to Miami today.
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
I don't have the best feeling about Boyd
but that’s a completely out of the loop opinion. Just a guess.

my gut agrees with your gut
Ducks Go!

I really do not understand Browns reasoning
I understand that he wants to go were his brother is, but how is Miami doing running the ball recently? Common Jared spit some stats out for me. Oregon is among the best in the country the past two years with our stud OC and he is locked down for years. If I were his brother I would want him to go where he can make a name for himself right away.
Yeah...
Miami has been pretty mediocre. Over the past few years, they have not averaged better than 145 ypg rushing the ball (last season), and have averaged around 125 or so. They have been no better than 65th in the nation ranked against other teams.
They have also not had a 1000 yard rusher in the past 5 years. They best was Frank Gore in 2004, and he had 945 yards in 12 games.
Honestly, if you want to become a high draft pick, going to Miami would be a terrible decision.

I thought I read...
…not a great way to start a comment, I realize.
A couple weeks back I think I read some comments from Brown’s brother saying he wanted his brother at Miami, but he had encouraged Bryce to go to whatever school was best for him. It didn’t sound like Bryce felt compelled toward Miami simply because his brother was there.
College football aside… The Eugene scene versus the Miami scene?

Eugene vs Miami
Yeah I see that, but it also could be a first or second round pick compared to a sixth or seventh round pick.
who'd have seen this logic coming ten years ago?
Eugene better than Miami for going pro. How things change.

No kidding. It does show how quickly programs can both rise and fall.
It wasn’t all that long ago, some columnists, albeit stupid ones, thought Miami could challenge some NFL teams in a match. Ever since Miami let a Ohio State freshman run over them in the national championship game, they dropped out of the spotlight.

Boyd
I read somewhere that Boyd is going to get his knee worked on this summer and will surely redshirt next year. With that said, he was looking at the best possible place to rehab his knee and that is Oregon for sure. He raved about the facilities and if all is true, I dont see any other school knocking Oregon out of the rehab loop.
I bleed grellow. Maybe I should get that checked out.
Eh fuck this
We need receivers and O linemen.. we need a lot our Class is looking really mediocre at best
We have a crapload of O-linemen...
We’re getting some great DBs, and have one of the best LB hauls we’ve had in a long time.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
yeah, I’m not sure we needed them much. Receivers perhaps one or two top-notch guys would have helped (we are still in the running for a couple) but QBs are pretty full (Costa, Roper, Thomas, Masoli, Pestal) and RBs are stacked (Crenshaw, Alston, Blount, James, Lewis)

Do we EVER actually have good LB's?
we could recruit the two best LB’s in the nation and Aliotti would find a way to make them underachieve
That's pretty ridiculous...
We haven’t had high level talent at the LB spot in years. But that’s what happens when your team is offense oriented, and buries the Donte Rosario’s of the world on the depth chart.
As far as other LBs…what’s Aliotti supposed to do with Brent Haberly. John Bacon, etc. Over the past few years, we haven’t had talent at that spot, yet the play is usually at least adequate, with players like Anthony Trucks, Blair Phillips, etc. stepping up.

--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
I agree.

not to mention last years class
Stuckie, Kaddu and Alonso. They have not played any real min. But they are big as hell and were big recruits.
Ducks Go!

Casey Matthews is a beast. That guy is all over the field. I love that kid’s intensity. As for WR’s, I maintain that Harper, if he stays at WR, is going to kill it this year. More of this please. With Terrence Scott and Jaison Williams gone, he has a real opportunity to excel at WR.

it’s too bad Matthews isn’t just a little bit faster.

We aren’t bad off in the receiver category either. We lose Scott, J-Will, and Krout. We still have Maehl, Holland, and Drew Davis (who beat out J-Will for the starting job last year before he tore his knee up. We also have a slew of Freshman that you haven’t heard much out of.

Jordan and Lewis
On the goducks.com page, Jordan is listed at 6’7"!!! He was a 4* recruit too! Malachai Lewis will be another good target when he gets playing time. He had a pretty good spring game last year.
May we hand you your taints on a silver platter...
Ed Dickson
I am one of the guys that gets miffed when the offense does not use Ed Dickson more. I love that guy and use him all of the time on video games. He’s got hands and size, not to mention a good football mind. I want to see the ball go to him a little more next year.
I bleed grellow. Maybe I should get that checked out.
Agreed...
I loved seeing him finally get into the action during the Arizona game. I have a feeling we’ll seem him down the middle more next year.
--AddictedToQuack, SBNation's Oregon Ducks blog
Yeah.
Ed Dickson is totally the man. I think Chip Kelly knows as well as anyone how to get the ball into your playmakers’ hands, and I bet he sees that in Ed as much as we do.

I think it’s more of Masoli getting comfortable and getting through his progressions. (Last TD pass in the Civil War anyone?)

+1 for comfortable
i feel like that is the reason for all his progression last year. getting more comfortable.

Common every one
Ok the stars next to a player name do not always matter. I may be wrong, but wasnt Unger only like a 2 or 3 star player. Im sure no one jumped for joy when we landed him. Sure there are the Haloti’s and the Stewarts out there that are 5 star guys that pan out, but there are also the 2 and 3 star guys who come into there own when the get better coaching in college. Wasnt Cam Colvin a really high recrut for us? I dont think that he met expectations at all beings he was a 5 star guy. Just saying that we dont know how our class is until they get on the field and play football. Besides Clemson blows and boyd is a dumb ass.
Chung was a 1 star.

While the stars don’t always get it right, statistically speaking, the better rated the recruiting class, the better the school performs on the field.
Is it a flawed system? Yes, but it’s the best system one could probably make.

I’m waiting for VD to come in and start ranting about the stupid star-rating system.

Me too. VD’s shenanigans are cheeky and fun. The other guy’s shenanigans were mean and cruel. Eeeevil shenanigans.
