Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Can one of you Einsteins explain the connection with 247 Sports, FSP and Heir Academy
Talked a while back with a coach who recruited WA while at a Mountain West school.
I asked him about a couple prospects who came through the state who were highly ranked big-name prospects.
He said something to the effect of "take those rankings for a grain a salt. He said the people who them together are tied in with Tracy Ford and the guy at Heir (don't remember his name) and those kids tend to be ranked too high because of some buddy-buddy shit." He just kind of laughed about it.
What made me think about it is seeing Julien Simon's name in the transfer portal. He was a Top 150-ish prospect nationally coming out of Tacoma according to 247 but was buried on the depth chart even with USC's shit defense.

Emeka at Ohio State has probably been the best
Willing to bring some guys back to see though
2021 five/four stars from Washington (11): JT Tuimoloau (2), Emeka Egbuka (9), Sam Huard (23), Owen Prentice, Julien Simon, Clay Millen, Lonyatta Alexander, Jabez Tinae, Jacob Schuster, Josh McCarron, Will Latu
2022 five/four stars from Washington (7): Josh Conerly (8); Tobias Meriweather (80); Ryan Otton; Dishawn Misa, Tristan Dunn; Dave Iuli
Some those guys from the 2020 class already appeared destined to portaled out to MWC/Big Sky type programs
If 247 (or these other places) were decent evaluators, they'd have a job at a school instead
I trust the coaches
This article basically shows how heir formed from rise.
