longtimehorn63 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 While I am glad there is interested because we are short on DT. What is he ranked? What do we know about him? I see people getting excited (on other boards) but nobody has even listed his height/weight much less his general ranking. According to the Statesman the other day we are already 6 over the limit (including the latest decommitments), how are we going to fit all these guys? Who is leaving/transferring? Obviously Daje and Overstreet maybe flunking out, but that is only two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horn46 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 I'm sure they know where they are as far as numbers. I'm also sure there will be more leaving then we know about and that may be a good thing. Like CS said the other day, don't get too caught up in rankings, if a coach knows what he is doing he sees things in players that he can build from. I'm tired of getting all these 4-5 star kids that don't know how to work because everything has always come easy. Give me some some guys that want to out work everyone else and have a drive to improve. If we get a roster of those guys our team will be better.

Hornitos Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 http://247sports.com/Player/Poona-Ford-27451?Institution=19860 Should be a 5 star. Surely he gets an extra star from his name alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think Strong is going to put the team through a really tough spring to see who really wants to play. Some of the older players that have been riding the bench may decide its time to hang the cleats up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously Daje and Overstreet maybe flunking out, but that is only two. Watch the video provided. He doesn't just make tackles or blocks anyone, more like crushes them. He's kind of on the short side, but he is super mobile and makes plays from sideline to sideline. Hard to totally tell from highlight videos but he looks awesome. If you must have star rankings, he is a 4 star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Vader Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Im starting to think every kid is going to visit Oregon just to see the Nike facility. Pertaining to the player: Yeah, this guy is a bad ass. Uses his hands the right way, gets off blocks, elite first step. Want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buice77 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 This kid is really good he's listed at 6' tall but who cares he play's a lot bigger then that he is ranked in the ESPN 300 and the # 23 DT I sure like to see the 22 in front of him to see if they look as good as him.
