Overland Park Husker Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 committed to Oregon shakes head in amazement I read somewehere (don't know though) that he wanted to play early. If he came here he'd have to earn it playing behind 3 good backs already, all with game time experience. Quote Link to comment

Blackshirtsguru Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 committed to Oregon shakes head in amazement I am with ya on that one! It's not like Oregon didn't recruit any other RB's in this class. They already have two on board prior to James commiting. Strange indeed! It must be the 75 different "outfits" Oregon can wear in their games. Quote Link to comment

They have all caught up. Granted Nebraska is still in the top Ten and probably always will be but, Oregon's facilites are pretty cool, as is the stadium, small but pretty impressive. Plus they have culture out here, you say culture aroud lincoln and eveyone thinks you are talking about something having to do with cows. Quote Link to comment

T_O_Bull Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 The only reason to go to Ore. over UNL would be that he has incredible poor taste in clothing and uniforms. >>>T_O_B Quote Link to comment

Plus they have culture out here, you say culture aroud lincoln and eveyone thinks you are talking about something having to do with cows. Have any of you guys actually seen Oregon's facilities? I played football at Northwestern (Big Ten), and have visited Oregon's campus. I can say they are at least on par with NU's, if not better. Phil Knight (founded of Nike) sinks millions and millions of dollars into their athletic program. In Oregon's locker room, each player has his own recliner and flat-screen TV for watching game film. The entrance to the football complex looks like the lobby at the Waldorf-Astoria, complete with a waterfall. In addition, all of their equipment is top-of-the-line Nike gear. Because Oregon is one of the few schools in the nation with Nike "Experimental Status," Nike debuts all of their football equipment prototypes at Oregon. For example, Nike developed a cooling/heating system within a player's shoulder pads. On the sideline, the players would hook an hose into their pads and cool/hot air would filter through a system in their pads and regulate their body temperature. I can understand why kids would choose Oregon if they put a lot of weighting into a school's facilities when deciding. NU does have amazing football facilities, but I don't think any program can match the "wow" factor of Oregon. Quote Link to comment
