2025 Preseason All-Big-10

I hate doing this for a giant conference and with programs that I don't know as well as the Pac-12 and with transfers. Here were are though! Seeing some Huskies actually in here is a good sign for improvement in 2025. You can easily make an argument to put Coleman and Boston on first team and Tacario, if he returns to 2023 form.

RB Nicholas Singleton Sr. Penn State & Makhi Hughes Jr. Oregon

If our OL takes a step forward to being average to above average, Demond may end up 1st team. If Allar and a QB from fucking Illinois are the best this conference has to offer, that’s pretty weak.

It's wide open for Demond to be the best QB in the conference of one of the other younger guys with potential who are at Ohio State, Nebraska, Michigan, Oregon. You kind of have to put those guys 1 and 2 for now though.

Too bad this guy’s dad didn’t like it here.

when you have a chance to play home games at soldier field, you don’t pass it up

I actually didn't realize that guy was Olin's son until I was doing research for this. I think he was a low three star and out of region so I guess it's not that shocking he wasn't even brought up in recruiting at all when he was in high school. He has another son starting at OLB there too.

I remember my dad saying in the late-90s that supposedly Olin had told kids in Hawaii not to go to UW for unknown reasons. Any old timers remember any of that? I know Olin has a rep for being a super combative guy.

Seems like Lambo soured a lot of relationships back then. Not sure if that was why. Didn’t he badmouth Dillon to NFL scouts cause he was pissed at him for leaving?

I appreciate you trying to be even handed but I wouldn’t fault you putting Demond 1st team. Allar only looked good against tosh and altmeyer is not good.

also Sadiq is going to put up insane Tyler Warren-type numbers because he’s an athletic freak + oregons wr group low key sucks.

missing nick marsh, too. Probably second best wr behind Jeremiah smith.

dirtysouwfdawg

fuck Vega from street fighter and Raphael sadiq. Both should’ve been dawgs.

I’d put money on udub doing better than this.

Vega is one my most painful at least recent local recruiting losses. He was fucking committed to the dumpster fire that was Jimmy Lake. While Penn State is certainly a huge program, feels like there should have been a chance to keep him. One of the too bad things about Petersen not sticking around is Idaho has produced some good talent in recent years and people from there definitely had an affinity to him. Colston Loveland is one that I would think they had a great shot at with Peterson

Nick Marsh looks like a beast. Getting a good laugh of trying to think of the best season a WR has had with Jonathan Smith as an OC or HC though outside of 2016 with Tedford.

Tony! Toni! Toné! has done it again.

UW has some good opportunities to do better DSD.

Coleman/Boston are basically first teamers. Anyone who actually has watched him play knows Demond has a great shot at being QB1 once games start.

TE is a joke after Klare and Sadiq. Moore or DeGraaf could easily get in the mix for honor.

OL is mostly about 25 games who are the same. Willis could be a first teamer though I hope they can find a way to keep him at RT.

DL falls off a cliff after first team. Healthy Durfee/Pepa or someone like Ward or Davis II racking up sacks could get them up there.

LB is JAG city - Al-Uqdah is he can keep being a turnover machine is a candidate.

Prysock will easily get consideration at DB if he improves even just a little bit.
