Future Oregon Stars: Tonio Celotto
Celotto transferred to Piedmont High in California to help himself with his grades and to overcome a learning disability. On the field, he tore it up every week and wound up with more accolades than I thought he would, showing up in a new program, in a new place.
He's six four, 240lbs. and runs a quick 4.7 for a defensive end. Wish they could stick him in at middle linebacker. Probably won't happen though as I'm not sure he's got the lateral quickness to play that spot.
Qualifying: Was an issue back in December and January. i don't believe he's in yet, but we'll see. The learning disability should give him some leeway with the NCAA clearinghouse and we'll see where his scores are anyway. He might make it despite that on the first go-round.
Playing time: Again, could play early for the Ducks. Probably not his freshman year but with all the DE's and DT's leaving in the next two years, he's clearly a guy the staff is counting on to step up and play big minutes for at least three years in a row at Oregon.
