Yes, UW hasn't had a top 20 class since 2020 (#17). UW had two great recruiting classes back to back (#15 in 2019) before Lake shat the bed with the 2021 class. Then the 2022 class was not very good (or deep).
-
if they get one this year it’s because of quantity. Overall star rating will not be top 20.
-
Never understood this. You have a top 20 class by average rating. Then you add a 0* LS. Now, it's below top 20?
Better way is to look at the top kid at each position group and average that.
-
Definitely needed quantity after the 2021 and 2022 classes were so bad and there's not one guy I think was a reach (maybe the Kennedy OL but his brother is such a stud that it's worth taking a flier on him).
-
The offer lists are solid for almost every kid committed. It’s reminiscent of the early Pete classes. Not a huge number of 4* kids but everyone had good offers and more importantly offers from programs that always seemed to find good, tough football players. This program needs an infusion of toughness.

100 percent this.
Football players make Football plays - Chuck Knox
As discussed ad nauseum, once you get past the can't miss guys you need to go watch these kids play and get guys that love the game

Bingo. One of my worries about Jedd is him never playing at any level and having country club rich guy vibes and his coordinators being sons of rich coaches is the team having a lack of toughness.
-
TBD Jedds last team at Arizona won low scoring games, won and lost shootouts and blew teams out. Winning multiple ways suggests a level of maturity and toughness. Tim will tell.

Jedd left and the Wildcoots got gang banged in a conference that was far worse than the 2023 pac 12
The team was tuff at home. On the road they were not.

Everyone appears to be signed except the punter and long snapper. Must have told the punter TBNT, we’ve got an Aussie now.
