'24 AZ EDGE Elijah Rushing (Oregon commit)

lol no. Several of their losses were close and to good teams. Lost to Washington by 10 on the road. Lost by 8 to USC. Lost to Wazzu by 11. Beat UCLA when they were top 10. Outside of Cal, all their losses were to respectable teams (Mississippi State, Wazzu, and a 4 game stretch of Oregon, Washington, USC, and Utah). UCLA was the 5th game in that stretch too. Had a top 25 offense already. Going from winless to 1-11 to 5-7 in two years and competing with good teams is not nothing
Let’s look at wins. Beat a below average team in SD St, beat an average team in ND St, beat a terrible Colorado team, beat a good but not great UCLA team and barely beat a terrible AZ St team. Don’t see a lot there that makes me think they are going to be good.
 
So what I’ve been able to figure out:
- the kid wants a surprise
- Oregon seemed to think they were in great shape until yesterday. They’ve always felt Arizona was their competition and when it seemed shaky they pushed and realized it wasn’t. Seems like they took their ball and went home. Oregon only knows it’s not them and not that it is Arizona which is what it seems like everyone is running with.
- not sure why the Oregon beat guys are so dismissive of Tennessee but it’s not coming from the family and isn’t true. They might be right ultimately but their dismissiveness is wrong
- 24 hours ago I wasn’t particularly worried about Arizona and knew Oregon was fading, which is why I said I’d lean Tennessee. If you had given me any situation where Oregon was out, I probably would’ve wagered a large sum of money on Tennessee. I don’t know if something actually changed with Arizona, I had bad info (don’t think that’s true as it’s mostly lined up with everyone else sans Oregon’s beat reporters) or if I should just trust what I did have and stick with Tennessee. I do think Arizona put quite a foot forward with NIL and having the brother on scholarship there obviously helps
- we’ve been in touch since all this went on
- most confusing last 24 hours of a recruitment since Francis Mauigoa. We’ll all know the answer in 22 hours

He said they were becoming a better program. What’s the point of posting past results?
He said a “solid program.” The point is to showcase they arent progressing to anything, but below par results. Not qualifying for a bowl on a consistent basis doesnt qualify as becoming a solid program. Using the word “becoming” in this context is referencing “past results.” Do you have more questions to ask?

Arizona currently has 17 commits and one 4 ⭐ (barely at .90). I'm not disagreeing with any insiders but it's hard to imagine a scenario where he ends up there based on the perceived talent in this class
