Terrible Winter Storm

Watching the national news tonight I saw that California is largely buried from a massive snow storm. I hope everyone on the board is out of harms way.

If you are in one of the buried areas, stay home if you can. The Sierras are non traversable. I heard that Sacramento was hit ( pretty low elevation to be snowing) .
The heavy snow storm extended into the mountains of southern California. Power is out in many areas.

Oregon goes in-home with Dowdell

As both Scott and Adam wrote about today, the feeling is that Oregon has done enough to secure a signature from four-star RB Dante Dowdell next week. But, in recruiting nothing is ever a sure thing, so the staff made sure to make a strong impression by having an in-home visit with the star running back tonight. Dan Lanning, Carlos Locklyn and Will Stein all made the trek out to Mississippi to meet with Dowdell and his family. As you can tell from the tweet they were able to bring in Dante Moore on a FaceTime call, which seems like an all-around good thing for both Moore's future and Dowdell's future with the Ducks.

Visitor list: Dec. 9-11

The Ducks' coaches have been busy this week criss-crossing the country meeting up with prospects ahead of this weekend's round of trips. Most programs are building up to a big weekend next weekend just before the start of the early signing period, but Oregon has another strong group of visitors highlighted by some of important commits including Rivals100 cornerback Caleb Presley.

Here's a look at the group with a little breakdown of each situation.

If you haven't seen it yet, make sure to check out Scott's writeup on each of the visitors. He did a very good job summarizing the situations with all the recruits on campus this weekend.


One other note, behind the scenes it sounds like Oregon is becoming one of the top schools for Arizona transfer receiver. Early on it sounded like USC was going to be a factor for him but as the week has played out the Ducks have started to gain some serious momentum. He led the Pac-12 in receiving yards this season and has had quite the journey from a walk-on player for the worst team in the conference to a top receiving threat in the league.

Arizona starting cornerback Christian Roland-Wallace has just announced his plans to enter the transfer portal after four seasons in Tucson. He has been regarded as the best defensive player at Arizona for the last few seasons and has been highly productive in his time with the Wildcats. Demetrice Martin found him tucked away in the high desert out in Southern California and kept him away from Donte Williams and USC despite a really strong push from the Trojans late in the process back when he was coming out of high school. Says a lot about their relationship and Martin's ability to recruit.

I could see it coming down to those two coaches again this time around. The word, quietly, has been that he had hoped to make a move closer to home at some point but I do think his relationship with Meat is important should the Ducks decide to pursue him.

He's started every game at Arizona the last three seasons and has 169 tackles plus 18 passes defensed to go with two interceptions. He's been a very good cover corner who was probably the defensive player with the most NFL potential at Arizona over the last few years.

Mike Leach passes away

It is official that Mississippi State head coach Mike Leach has passed away at the age of 61. A very sad day for Mississippi State and college football fans. Most importantly, condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues as this was far too soon.
