I know Doogs and Quooks will say they prefer their team's class over the other but even if I were to try to be objective, it's hard to say Oregon's class is better than ours. Their higher rating is driven primarily by larger numbers (26 vs 22 signees) and Thibs but when you look at position by position, the only areas the Ducks beat us straight up were at WR, TE, and on the edge. Our class is stronger in the trenches on both sides and in the secondary.

UO: Cale Millen (3*)

You have to bury Oregon in Seattle next year to keep your job.

With the addition of Puka, I'm calling it a tie for WR recruiting. Yes the Ducks got four WRs including three 4* but I think among the six WRs signed between the two schools, Puka and Davis were our top two. And if the recruiting analysts are to be believed, we passed on both Pittman and Delgado.

Position by position UW wins 6-2-2 with the two losses at TE and OLB/BUCK.

Puka is the best out of the group.

By a mile.

Nacua was a huge, huge addition and raises the overall grade of the class way more than a WR normally would. The need for dominant WR, in terms of taking that next step, is really glaring and he's that kind of talent. Pittman and Delgado are JAGS and not even comparable to him.

Rather easily.

Davis isn't #2 though.
 
I hate Dooging as much as the next person, but this is all true. There are like 4 guys total in Oregon's class that we would prefer to the same guy in ours. That doesn't mean theirs sucks, tho.

But it does mean their class isn't better than ours. And it isn't.

Is Cale Millen one of the 4?

Not in the rankings but I think he was higher on the coaches' board than the other guys. Didn't we accept his commitment around the same time we started to "cool" on Delgado and Pittman?

Yeah - I think the way we had WRs ranked, Davis was higher than Delgado or Pittman for us. I personally like Pittman better, but I always thought Delgado and Dollars were really not that good.

I think the guys OUR STAFF would swap go like this...

I think we'd take Jonah T as an add on, not as a swap. Kayvon and Ma'ae we would've taken over Trice I think. Though Ma'ae is a little confusing. Funa we liked, but he doesn't really fit our D - would we take him over Trice? Probably? Maybe.

Mykael Wright we would've taken over KamFab, pretty sure about that.

So, Kayvon's a weird one because of OKG shit, but if we could just have him, duh we'd take him.

I'd say the final verdict is that we would've taken Jonah, Kayvon, Maybe Funa, maybe Ma'ae and Wright.

Talent only considered Kayvon no question.

All the other baggage? It's all speculation that none of us are ever likely to know for sure.
 
I think Oregon got more substance in this class than what they've had in recent years (Taggart/Helfrich)

Oregon's recruiting is going in the right direction. Did they beat Washington?...in some areas. Did Washington beat Oregon?...in some areas. I think you are greatly underestimating how good some of Oregon's recruits are. Players like Eaford. I think Eaford is a stud. We can talk about Pittman, and Delgado, but the WR I'm actually most excited about is JR Waters. He tore it up at Oregon's SNL practice. He isn't highly touted, but he's 6'3" and very athletic. He has the most upside of Oregon's entire WR class. Cale Millen has also proven to be better than originally thought. He wasn't even a top 600 player when he picked Oregon, but is now around 300.

Even with all this what are we arguing about? Both teams finished roughly in the top 10 in recruiting this year, and had more 4 and 5 stars than the rest of the conference combined. I actually celebrate this, because we finally might get the rivalry we have all missed since the very early 2000's. Comparing everybody else west of Texas, we are comparing one Magnum vs another. I think it's close enough that we leave it to the field to decide.
