The pickings are slim for Oregon high school football talent in the class of 2019, forcing the Oregon State Beavers and Oregon Ducks to do a more thorough deep dive of the state in order to find potential options.
As the spring evaluation process heats up, Banks tight end Blake Gobel is beginning to heat up as a commodity.
The 6-foot-7, 215-pound tight end doesn't yet have a scholarship offer, but has popped up on the radar of several programs.
Over the weekend, Gobel took an unofficial visit to Oregon State and came away anxious to build the relationship further and to put on his football pads again.
