Great News. Hope we get him. Hoping for a quality DT. Make things look ok for defense as far as the class goes.

I believe we're still "in" on Tim Jernigan. Question for anyone to answer: Is Hoke or any of the coaches "pursuing" Darian Cooper? Wasn't he "high" on us not too long ago?

But I'd guess this was a courtesy call given they were out there to see Countess

When I clicked this thread for some reason "raven" popped out and i thought we were having someone officially visit from the ravens because of mattison. Needless to say, I was slightly confused.

Wow, that video almost made me giddy thinking about the possibility of getting Floyd. The primary things that really stood out to me were his instincts and speed. He demonstrated that he can efficiently pass rush as well as drop back into coverage to read the quarterback (something we've significantly lacked the last few years, save a couple plays from Mouton). In plays that start from the opposite side of the field, he's there within 20 yards. Finally, he has a great tackling technique.

I wouldn't get too excited about Anthony Wallace yet. He told Oregon he was he done with visits, and Chip Kelly is very strict about that stuff. I'd be really surprised if he visits, because it would get him in some trouble with the Ducks.
