Oregon looks good for 5 ⭐️ CB Finney keeping his commitment , Ducks are crushing it again.
UCLA will have a hard time holding on to the DE Epi, Ohio State and USC are coming hard
My Trojans:
5 ⭐️ Dline Stewart never showed up to Ohio State and was “dissatisfied “ with Oregon’s offer, LSU is not confident. Good guys looking in fine shape
4⭐️DT Sharma, once committed to Oregon, now Texas. Supposedly USC came in with the biggest offer. 😳
5 ⭐️ CB Dijon Lee, USC trying hard but Bama isn’t worried
4 ⭐️ Ath Dale Penson committed to Ga Tech but USC is trying to flip
4⭐️ LB Faraimo looking real good here, favored
If all this comes together it’s a top 12 class maybe top 10.
Then the portal.
This is a mid/meh day
Not enough LB or OL
Not enough California players
Lost our best assistant coach
B- at best, probably a C+ day overall.
What a lack luster NLI day. No DL Sharma, No LB. M. Faraimo, No DB, Dijon Lee. Good get in DL Stewart, but USC over paid. USC needs a GM with NIL valuation expertise. All the rumors and flips that were supposed to take place did not happen.
The Big 5 killed it again, Texas, Ohio St, Oregon, Bama, UGA. These teams just keeps adding more top players to their roster. USC is falling way behind, can't win without top players.
I hope C. LR rips it in the TP, cause the FB team needs a lot of help. Need LB's & DL.
Just a Wipe Out NLI day...
12/04 update
#1 Dline Stewart $6mill over three years to come to USC. We are his biggest offer maybe by a lot. Looks like he’s coming.
Penson is sticking w/ the yellowjackets
Ingram looks very possible.
Sharma 50/50 w/Texas
Stewart, Ingram, Faraimo look to fight on
Bama couldn’t flip RbDalton , he signed
Good report. It’s looking like Cal is going to keep 4* QB commit Sagapolutele. Ducks went all in to flip him. He took another trip to Cal and confirmed he loves the place and values the Cal degree.
It’s neck and neck for 5* TE Lincoln Cure out of Kansas. Long time commit to KU. Ducks gave him the full presentation at the UW game with a big NIL offer. He got a flip from Wiltfong, but he says it could go either way on Wednesday.
Ducks just flipped 4* LB Gavin Nix out of FL. Was a Miami commit since July. Ducks kept on him. I think the shitty Miami D this year made him cool on Miami.
Looks like Ducks will hold on to all their top commits. Including their #1 commit. Dekorian Moore. He confirmed today he’s all Ducks, enrolling in Jan.
This is where rileys performance hurts. Would you put your future in his hands? Me neither.
Yep, believe it or not Phil Knight (err...."Oregon") has a budget. Stewart wasn't as good of an investment for my quacks. But sounds like he's gonna be a great one, no matter the price! Congrats, Trojans.
Oregon is sitting at number 6 right now in recruiting for 2025. May lose 5* WR Dallas Wilson, but looking good everywhere else. 4-star LB Gavin Nix just flipped from Miami to my quacks today. Very possibly will flip 5* TE Linkon Cure from Kansas St.
It's SUPER early but Oregon at number 1 in recruiting for 2026 with two 5* and five 4* recruits. That's really where this playoff run (and I HOPE it's a run....) will pay dividends, not in 2025 so much.
Word is Oregon is probably gonna have its pick of the portal. Right now everyone it seems wants to play in Eugene for Lan Danning....for a price, of course. Part of the reason they don't want to overspend on J Stewart - better to get someone proven from the portal than take a chance on someone with potential like a Bear....
Win now works for this quack. And likely for good ol' Phil as well... 😎
Thanxs Ballss for the update. The staff are working hard. Good news overall. We need good players. Hope the team land some top players in the TP as well. Cheers.
