Looks like UW is Targeting JC DL

CokeGreaterThanPepsi

Glad to see them trying to get some JC d-lineman in here, we are going to need immediate help next year from a numbers standpoint.

Anthony Fotu seems to be very much interested. Visiting next weekend. Great offer list. And his highlights explain why, really like him and could use a big body like that next year.

He looks great. I dig the gratuitous shot in the kicker in the first play. That's a hatred of people even Damoan can respect. The competition on the other hand doesn't look very good.

I just see a good size/speed/power guy. We need a guy like Evan Hudson that can control the edge, he seems like he could at least do that for us and allow us not to have to rely on Dissly or McGary as young players. Plus it is good depth, we could be VERY young next year on the DL if we don't get some JC's.

Fotu reminds me a bit of Qualls in the athlectism.

Evan Hudson does his job, don't get the hate for him around here.

Has anyone confirmed if McGary has moved to the OL? That would make sense as to why they are targeting a guy at E. Hudson's position. Tupou is the current back-up there but that's about it.

I heard it from a good source but there has been no confirmation.

That would be great and he gets 15 extra practices to work at OT before spring ball.

I hope we get Fotu...I'm not sure Tupou (or Turpin) are the full-time answers there.

I saw a picture of one of the GA's that works with the DL posted and it was with all the DL, and in the picture was McGary... It was after the OSU game.

Well we'll figure it out eventually.

I love that the staff is now going after a JC Defensive End Jeremiah Mitchell. It sounds like he has a lot of versatility as a big guy who can also rush the passer.

He's okay. I guess he does his job, but mediocre players also get us 5-4 and 4-5 records. Timu and Mickens are okay too, but I don't think we need to recruit more of them. We need guys better than Evan Hudson.

I like Evan Hudson, actually. It's just that he is totally mediocre. He's not 'bad', he is just the king of never making plays.

And on the rare occasion he enters the backfield, he appears either blind or like he is moving at speed and trajectory QBs can somehow immediately calculate to dodge him.

He needs to up his game to ludicrous speed to foil these tricky QB's.

Wait, what?

Evan Hudson was a stalwart on the best D-line in the conference -- maybe the country. He sure as hell is not the reason this team has a mediocre record.

He was also a walk-on. Cool story, though.

That's the point. We had a walk on starting for 2 years. He was not a difference maker.
