Probably not the best news people want to be hearing with Dowdell openly saying he's torn between Oregon and Ole Miss now.

I get there’s plenty of reason for him to stay home by why a back like him would want to play for Leach is interesting to say the least.

Oh duh. Mississippi State has been after him too, and recently did a home visit, so when I saw Miss I immediately assumed Mississippi State.

So is why ink on paper is the only thing that matters, for both recruits and OC’s or?

RB is a position I'm not worried about. Bucky and Noah have two additional years of eligibility remaining and Jordan is a True Freshman. I get wanting to keep the pipeline going, but there's just not a whole lot of touches available for more than three backs.

He'll probably sign with us, get homesick and hit the portal.

Things looking more solid with Dowdell now.

Looks like Dowdell is now all locked-in to Oregon after the home visit from Locklyn, Lanning, and Stein.

What kind of RB is he? Who would he compare to?

He's big and somewhat fast (4.6ish)...but IIRC didn't play against the top top competition

Hard to bring down once he gets going. Maybe a comp to someone like Blount or Freeman although he's lighter than Blount right now

Maybe he could develop into the second coming of Mo Morris or Reuben Droughns.

The Ducks could do worse.

Personally, let DD become the BEST version of himself.

That will likely be sufficient to the cause.

Watching his SR year Hudl I'd say he looks very similar to Royce Freeman with a touch of Bucky in his "suddenness"

From the little highlights I have watched these are all good comparisons the past RB’s mentioned. He is big, 212lbs as a high school senior, he will get bigger. Against other high school players he is a powerful runner with size. I expect he will get plenty of reps next season.
