Who are the recruits we missed out on that you really wanted

Post by duck92 »

My top 2 are https://247sports.com/player/blake-nichelson-46115764/ and https://247sports.com/player/riley-williams-46112989/. Honorable mention goes 2https://247sports.com/player/micah-banuelos-46115029/ and https://247sports.com/player/david-peevy-46113638/ https://247sports.com/player/jayden-wayne-46085119/. Losing Bowen, Hicks and Moore hurt but those type of guys are hard to find every year. Imo, the ones I've mentioned are the type of players we built the team around.

I don't disagree with your selections. Besides Peevy (IMO), the rest of those guys would have made the roster incrementally better.

For me, it was:
1) Riley Williams
2) Spencer Fano
3) Micah Banuelos
4) Jasiah Wagoner
5) Caleb Presley

For me it was Peyton Bowen. His highlight tape is spectacular and I think he could have come in and made an immediate impact on Oregon's defense.

Not to attack anyone. But people only wanted Riley because he is from Oregon. He isn’t better than Sadiq and he wouldn’t make us any better.

Hicks and Bowen are the only two we legit had a shot at that would have made an impact this year.

Agreed about Bowen, looking at next year secondary seems like the biggest weak spot by a large margin. He looks to be starter day 1 and would’ve contributed right away. Sucks that his selfish mom is controlling him. At some point in life he’ll learn if he wants to be successful you can’t just let mom get her way, he needs to make his own decisions. For his sake I hope he doesn’t learn that valuable lesson too late.

And being that next year the pac12 will have the best group of throwing qbs of all conferences, it would have been nice to have gotten bowen. Hope we get some stud dbs in the portal like we did last year with gonzalez.
