One lackluster recruiting projection.

So, apparently "247sports" (Is that ruth's network?) ranks our recruiting class #50 right now. And it seems UW has an "excellent" shot at landing 2 more four-star recruits. Only 2 more? And it's July? I feel better, however, because eklund is apparently "hearing things" and kim said "there is a good buzz about the program right now."

Link: blogs.seattletimes.com/huskyfootball/?from=stnv2

Under the category of "Already Making Excuses," Greg Biggins was recently interviewed on KJR. He was specifically (and conveniently) asked: "Which position is the thinnest on the west coast this year?"

Biggins' answer: "Offensive linemen."

So everybody just needs to chill out. How can we expect to recruit elite OLs when it's not only a down year in-state, but also a down year on the west coast?

    The problem is it wouldn't matter if it was the best OL class in 40 years since they'll all want to go to schools with programs that develop OL and win games. Hmm, schools with great offensive lines seem to win more games, hmm I wonder if.. no must be a coincidence. Sarks a genius and UW has the best coaching staff in America never to win more than 7 games and a shit tier bowl.

    I don't know about you, but I hear New Mexico is nice in December

    Let's just hope we don't get linemen from the Eastside. We all know they are garbage.

    I recall many moons ago when I subscribed to Drivelman.cum, I was told many times to pipe down because Sark tried hard. Orange slices, etc. We are fucked.

    Anyone thinking we might get a 2012 UCLA like OL haul is more likely to be killed by falling commercial aircraft parts than see it materialize.

    I know Mora is a popular guy on this website. I'll join you when he wins a conference championship.

    Not tough. 4 years of Cozzetto is all the objective evidence any sane person needs.

    What about winning 9 games and going to the conference title game in year one?

    Agreed, but I'm looking for sustainability. Don't forget that Sark took an 0-12 team and went 5-7 and then 7-5 and bowl eligible. I think some multi-year perspective is needed. That's all I'm saying.

    And in retrospect, UW should have fired Sark then. He had already peaked

    Don't worry guys, we have already offered 3 in state tackles for 2015, and one has already committed! Woof!

    Besides, we don't really need a good OL. Sark can work around it. There is a reason Herbstreet named him one of the best playcallers in the country,

    Remember, Kim says that this year will be a top 10 recruiting class even though he only expects us to take 16 guys. I believe this is close to a statistical impossibility since we have already taken 4 mid-level 3 star guys.
