Transfer portal 2023 & 2024

so you’re telling me that going to Kansas over udub didn’t work out… I’m shocked.
-
This year's edge play was frustrating to watch. Kaufusi hasn't impressed thus far, and though a few of our DL recruits look somewhat promising, we weren't in realistic contention for any big fish. Caleb Smith is a head scratcher; looks like another JAG'y Anthony James.
We need a portal stud at DE and DT, minimum.

Kaufusi is probably #1 on my list of coaches to improve upon in terms of seeing how 2025 goes. I'm sure Chun would give the go ahead to boost the salary there to get a killer.
-
Kaufusi is probably why we've picked up some of the poly linemen on both sides. The Kaufusi's, even the one that tried to murder Keith Price in the bowl game, are very well connected, huge family with a lot of connections, especially in Utah where more talent is being produced per capita than WA.

What Poly recruits has he brought in on the DL?
-
I understand the angst but this dude was given a second team all BigSky DT, a converted OG and Bandes. Durfee and Davis couldn’t stay healthy, Wayne and Lane are young and Voi is best suited inside but had to moonlight at the edge because of lack of production. Trice didn’t really flash until his redshirt junior year. Next year will be telling on whether Kafusi can develop the players that are here. These young guys on the edge should be ready to pop if he can. He needs portal DTs because you can’t bank on the Parkers. Davis flashed a bit, Kahn should be in the rotation but they need upper class, front line starters badly.
-
That's fair and I should reiterate that I wasn't calling for him to be replaced after this season. He definitely needs portal help so as not to rely on the coming-off-injury Parker twins, RS-Soph Elinneus Davis (who I like a lot) and RS-Frosh Khan. Bryce Butler may also be ready to contribute more in 2025.
-
Ok well if they didn't have any talent then we should go after whoever's responsibility it is to coach them up or recruit the portal for better talent. Ope
-
Is the Kaufusi Advisory Council lurking on this board or something. I didn't see anything promising out of that unit at all this year and nothing recruiting this year or next year either.
-
Speaking of Butler, he played great against UCLA and then didn't show up for the Oregon game. Strange situation with him this year.
The development of Butler, E. Davis and Wayne next year should indicate whether Kaufusi can develop his guys, because there's plenty to work with there.
