From the photos of Thomas on the Register Guard web page, it looks as if he has bulked up considerably since arriving at Oregon. He is still only listed as 200 lbs, but he has lost that skinny as a rail look that was the trademark of Dennis Dixon.

Look for #1... He's about 12 images in.

Jeremiah Masoli-Showed pretty good grit and effort and he threw two touchdowns to no interceptions which is exactly what we need out of him. He'd have more rushing yards if the red jersey protection was taken off

Aaron Pflugrad-Looks to have improved his overall speed and agility. Really made a good cut and cut-back on the touchdown drive, which he finished with power as he bowled his way into the endzone. I thought he also did a nice job blocking down field on running plays.

Blake Cantu-Cantu was a guy he were being told could play as a true frosh when he got here and had the body to handle it. Then he hurt his shoulder. I think this guy will really do well in the fall.

Simi Toeania-Simi has been playing really well all spring. Maybe he's realized its his last year or coach Azz has whipped him into gear. Whatever it is, it's nice having a 6'4 315 pound mountain on the D-line.

Chad Peppers-Played really well on special teams in a bunch of different areas.

Walter Thurmond III-Lockdown. Holland didn't have a good game because he was covered by the pac-10's best DB.
Agree with all of em. I also thought Barner showed some serious potential @ RB. I'd like to see him get some more reps and maybe eventually make that his permanent position. Also don't forget Roper.
Ya it looked like Barner was maybe a bit small but definitely could play the position if needed. I really wish we could've seen LMJ though. And Gaines would've been an interesting player this Spring.
Yeam same, I wanted to get a little taste of LMJ, but I'm glad Barner showed he could be that guy if needed.

I also though the first team defense did a pretty good job slowing down the run game for the most part. Sure we have two RB injuries right now and the poor weather was probably a bit in the defenses favor, but our D line held their ground.

Since it is a flash photo slideshow, the only way I know how to do it would be to take a screen capture, open the screen capture in a photo editing program and crop it down to the photo. However, I am not a computer expert...maybe somebody has a more convenient way to work around the obstacles flash photos present.

Blounts catch was impressive considering

Littlejohns ability to close in on Cantu during that TD pass shows his speed
