Army/West Point Recruiting and Roster Questions

Here's the Army FB com list.

https://army.rivals.com/commitments/football/


Here's the BB team roster.

So how does it work? Pardon my ignorance, but are the some of the BB players prep players, and/or JV team members?

As for the FB com's, I guess these are non schollie players so they don't limit their overall roster?

Here's the FB team Roster, which lists HS players. So again, are these prep academy kids? Just curious.

A Great Interview

Not sure if this has already been shared on the board but, this is one of the better interviews I have seen. I'm not posting to stir the coals. Honestly, I didn't know much about this guy until he was mentioned on the boards. In doing my research, I came across this.

IF, we decide to go in a new direction after this season, this gentleman shoots to the top of my list. He's passionate, educated, knows his football, takes pride in thinking outside the box, and seems to be a very good communicator. I love his history and pedigree.

It's a long interview, but fantastic nonetheless. Apologies for not knowing how to link in the forums.

MAD AS HELL: Terrible Defensive Technique Taught at Oregon

This is not a feel-good article as FishDuck is pissed.


If you want to see a little about why our defense sucks, and why a change of defensive coaching has to happen—then you will appreciate the information in this editorial. For some of you....you may learn a little more football while you’re reading.


Read over there, and comment here please; I’ll be checking in through the day. Thanks to all Duck fans whether you agree with me or not.....

Rankings Track Recruiting Classes

This morning I heard a brief review by two track recruiting analyst.

Keeping in mind that this is just the end of round 1 in the track recruiting story, the analyst gave what they considered a progress report of what schools performed the best.

They broke recruiting into three groups..Bubble Schools, Mid Tier Schools, and Top Schools.
They defined bubble schools as those school that are only a top recruit or two alway from being in the running for the top. Mid Tier was defined as schools that are "in the hunt" to be the top class, but not quite there now. The top schools were their opinion of the one best recruiting class in the country.

Each analyst gave his pick for the three categories.

For Bubble Class one analyst picked Wisconsin. The other picked a tie between FSU and Alabama.

For Mid Tier one picked Texas and the other Texas Tech.

For the "top class" they didn't agree . One picked Oregon.The other said that he wasn't "so impressed" with the Oregon class, and emphatically ranked Stanford as the being the top class at this point in the recruiting cycle.

Hmmm, this could be an interesting competition before it's all over.

Track NLI Early Signing Wednesday

I just thought that I'd give a "heads up" regarding the NLI early track signings tomorrow
.
Track recruiting will continue into the summer, but tomorrow will be a significant date for most of the top track programs.

As for the Ducks, we know that Lauren Rain Williams (the top ranked girl's sprinter) and Casey Clinger (the top ranked boy's distance runner) will be delaying their decision for a week or so, and that Oregon is still in contention for both of these exceptional talents.

I don't know if Alyssa Wilson ( #1 ranked woman's thrower) will be signing tomorrow or not. Oregon is one of Alyssa's top choices.

I don't know how many will commit to Oregon tomorrow. Four boys and two girls have verbally committed and are expected to sign tomorrow. Let's find out if there are more! There will be rankings of the early signing classes but the track program will continue to attract and sign more athlete's throughout the year. So, in the words of Churchill....".It is not the end. It's not even the beginning of the end, but it is perhaps the end of the beginning"

Go Ducks!
