Germie Bernard in the portal

Players in the portal have to want to come to UW
So if guys like Germie want to come then that is who you target
Like DeBoer used his connection to get Penix here instead of his connection to get Haener
Good call IMO -
The kid is obviously going to come back to UW unless the coaching staff tells him that they don't want him... The kid fucked up and now he wants to fix it...

Teen boys are getting pushed and pulled by a lot of salesmen with real $$ and real implications for their long term well being at stake. A lot of them are going to make wrong choices. I wouldn't say they should get second and third chances, but they might as well.TheRoarOfTheCrowd said:The kid is obviously going to come back to UW unless the coaching staff tells him that they don't want him...

Loyalty doesn't exist in the industry from either side.. Players get nudged out the door to make room for better ones, and most coaches are ready to bolt for a better salary at any point. Kids are going to make bad choices left and right. Hell...adult players with well paid representatives make bad choices all the time. -
This seems like a pretty low-effort "recruitment" by the coaching staff and a very high potential reward. I understand the feelings towards him after he bolted last year, but if he enters the portal with the "Do Not Contact" designation, as has been stated, and he's a lock to UW, then take him. It sounds like it'd require little to no effort on the coaching staff's part.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

That's a great point, the portal exists. Maybe we should use it to go get another WR. Perhaps one from East Lansing, MI?PostGameOrangeSlices said:
Yes, we run a similar offense to Petersen, and the portal doesnt existGreenRiverGatorz said:

You do realize he and Rome are tight?PostGameOrangeSlices said:I disagree. I think it sets a bad precedent.
We want dudes who shit gold and piss purple. Give me SEC transfers, not soft B1G transfers
I bet you he doesn't end up here. And I'm usually right.
WR is the least of this programs concerns.
2018: Ah fuck, Aaron Fuller is still starting?
Or not
Ones that didn't show up on campus and then leave?
There is no shortage of talent in the portal. We can go find actual 4 star receivers, not 4 star potential -
pgos I don’t understand the downside to taking him

Well with this angle in mind, TeamPGOSPostGameOrangeSlices said:

You're making it plain that your original take was shit, you realize it, and now you're doubling down. It's a vintage PGOS move, so I'm not telling you to quit doing that - so don't twist.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

But yeah, by all accounts Germie had a strong true freshman year, played in all 12 games, and 100% lived up to his 4 star billing. MSU fans expected him to be a starter next year and are not happy to see him go. We all know you don't watch film or have the first clue about evaluating college receivers (and neither do most of us, though fudgie pretends to) so that should be all the indication you need to want to go after him. -
If DeBoer wants him, we will get him.GreenRiverGatorz said:

But chances are DeBoer doesnt. Ill be first and right. Or not.
My takes are fine in this thread, people just have weird attachments to certain recruits. Doogs gonna doog.
Two big ones are:
1) people have no clue how good our backup receivers are. Comparing the situation to 2018 is FS.
2) Id rather go out and get a WR in the portal who has put up big numbers as a starter, than a more or less unproven backup -
I mean sure, if there's another Jordan Addison in the portal go get him. But all the guys who have already put up big numbers and are entering the portal aren't also guys who still have four years to play three. Take the one year rental who's proven, and also take the true freshman who still has a full career ahead of him.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

As for attachment? Fuck Germie, he was a sniveling pussy who followed a shit WR coach. But he's talented and this is an emotionless business, so welcome his ass back with open arms if he wants in.
