We still haven't begun addressing the offensive line yet, so that's the number one thing I'm paying attention to. As of now, our starters next season would be Fox Crader, Kawika Rogers, Poncho, Dave Iuli, and Gernorris Wilson. Not terrible, but not national title contending.
Any chance Iheanacho starts?

I wouldn't know what kind of probability to give it, but him and Tommy Tofi both have a shot. They're both absolutely huge humans. If they did, I would think they'd start inside at guard.

Olesh for Ploog is a win.
Losing Purchase suuuucks. And insane how many DL were losing but it makes sense since everyone is coming back. I hope Aydin Breland and Elijah Rushing stay. Really bummed on Purchase.

EDGE Tobi Haastrup has entered the portal. Ducks taking a lot of hits in their deepest positions this offseason as DB, RB, DL, and EDGE are being hit hard.

Geez. At this point I'm wondering if some of these kids are being told there's no room for them.

I guess we won’t have more recruits over transfers anymore LOL

Would anyone be surprised if several of these DL end up at Cal with Tosh?

That is certainly plausible. Ducks could also be getting out-bid. Hope this doesn’t have the same effect that Altman’s hoops team faced…paying so much to keep a few dudes, while having little quality depth left over.

Wow.. we're going to regret Tobi Haastrup not finishing his career with the ducks. The thing that took the sting off of Purchase leaving was figuring Tobi would get more reps. I guess not.

A defensive line of Tobi, Jericho Johnson, Sims, and Purchase is a Big 12 starting line, at least.

Gosh. Hard to think so. I think the roster is down to 73 at the moment, if counting the new class.

(Not counting the invite/walk-on guys like Quinn and Wiepert)

Honestly, I was already checking out on recruiting, but now it’s just completely pointless. 80% of the guys that sign will bail by year 3. So many dudes giving up after a year is frustrating. They seemed to rotate the DL quite a bit, so I don’t understand the entire backup DL bailing.

DL Tionne Gray is hitting the portal. The losses along the DL are just sickening now.

This kinda feels like something weird is going on. Sure seems like a lot of players are leaving Oregon right now compared with most of the other big programs...

If I'm Cal/UCLA/Colorado/etc., I don't think I even recruit high school players. I wait for 2nd-4th year players from Oregon and similar teams to hit the portal and get my 4* and 5* secondhand after they're physically and mentally matured.

Economics. We have a lot of guys who could be starters elsewhere, and starting roles pay well.
