Don’t forget about the two 5 stars that left the team. How can UW survive without themYellowSnow said:Looks like we're down to 27 x 4 Stars "In Progress"

Only Clempson has won the whole thing in the CFP era with less than the magic number or 40 (they had 39 in 2016).
TCU has 17 last year. I don't recall were Oregon was in 2014 but it was low 30's, right?
Can UW be the first to do it with well below 40? We had 21 in 2016 including 4 star QB Jake Browning. -
Completely forgot ASJ.WoolleyDoog said:
Shaq and Reggie are the only clearcut 5-5 guys signed by UW. Was ASJ a 5 star in the end? If so I think he can be added.DoogmanRefund said:
Shaq played like one. Good call. Those teams were mostly forgettable. Could have used him during the Manu/Wellington era.YellowSnow said:
Shaq was and generally played like one. I think Reggie was.DoogmanRefund said:
Was Reggie Williams the last 5 star who went to UW and actually played like one?YellowSnow said:

And I assume any 5 star we get (from WA state) will probably suck.
Instate during recruiting rankings I feel like a lot haven't panned out or at least underwhelmed:
Heaps - Bust. Original JT Daniels.
Max Browne - Massive bust
Eason - Underwhelmed.
Jonathan Stewart - 5*-5*
Reggie - 5*-5*
Emeka - 5*-5*
Kavario - Bust
ASJ - 5*-5* but still kind of underwhelming
Schilling - 5*-4*
Garnett - 5*-5* I guess but I'll stand by that he was kind of just decent and McCaffrey was making plays and with Stanford's OLine pedigree at the time he slotted into a bunch of accolades then Chipper reached for him like way before anyone else would have.
Sarrell - underwhelmed big time
Taylor Mays - 5*-5*
JTT - Jury is out. Let's see how the next 1-2 years actually go
Sam Huard - Yikes fucking yikes - has there ever been a five star recruit and that high of a five star who ended up in FCS, and that quickly?
Smalls - More yikes - can't crack the two deeps on Colorado's atrocious Line
Locker and Budda should have been 5*-5*s -
Well, technically speaking, this metric is about 4/5 start croots.NeGgaPlEaSe said:

So, we still need better players across the bored?Canadawg said:
You want as many good players from all avenues. Saying that the portal is more important is unsustainable. Coaches knowing what their next season is going to look like for getting a couple of players is much more realistic than every single year hoping they hit perfect in the portal.Baseman said:This is pro-football. Hth.
The portal>recruiting. Never would have thought it would have come to this but here we are, Recruit the top kids, keep in touch if they sign somewhere else. Roster mgmt.
Penix, Muhammad, Bernard (took him back). Keep winning and there will be more kids--college game ready--desirous to plug in with winning coaches.
Looks like we're getting top WRs. Huff's recruits--hard working athletes--keep the QB upright. Defensively the coaches have upgraded where needed.
We still need better players across the bored but don't see the holes --LB, QB, and most of the time WRS-- the Peterman (FTG) teams had
Two kicks at the can > one -
jesus....are we really impressed with their star?

penis is a 6 star QB....last generational QB was Tui

He’s at least a 7 star, on par with 2010 jack locknerFireCohen said:penis is a 6 star QB....last generational QB was Tui

Not an in state guy but another 5* guy UW landed was Donny Mateaki and he played the equivalent of Cameron Elisaras career which was like a a Damian Turpin careerWoolleyDoog said:

I personally am a fan of the 2019 skwaad that was loaded with DDY 4s and DDY cum
Great fucking sqwaad -
The portal has completely changed the game. Saban hates the portal for exactly this reason. I remember a time before scholarship limits when schools like Alabama would use excess scholarships to take kids off the street, basically cut out the competition. Can't do anything remotely close to that now. Now, a school like UW can instantly grow a 6 star Penis. Good times I say.FireCohen said:penis is a 6 star QB....last generational QB was Tui
Edit: By the way, the best player to ever play at UW, IMHO, was Stan Empterman. That guy was a fucking beast and a number one overall NFL draft pick. As a D Lineman. And as we all know, he was a three star recruit!!!!111111!!! Stars matter to some degree, fuck you up kick ass on the field eye test play matters more.
