Intriguing Future QB Recruiting News

in The Fisching Hole (Recruiting)
So was walking around Husky Stadium the other day and saw the lights were on at night and it looked like there was a 7on7 team or something in there.

It turns out it was George Whitfield (the QB "guru") putting on a camp at UW.

For those that follow recruiting and know Steve Clarkson, Whitfield is basically Clarkson on steroids. He works with a ton of elite QB's during the offseason, which also means he works with up and coming prospects as well.

Me thinks (Hardy Har Har) Chris Petersen might have learned a bit of a lesson this year in QB recruiting and made sure to get this guy on campus for future years. It could be interesting, or not, but I thought it was interesting.

    Really like that the big lockers are reserved for special teams ... plays made there often influence the outcome of the game ... not to mention that we haven't had a coach that valued them properly since Don James.

    Huh, know nothing about that guy, and don't generally care for the guru types. But that was a damned good little walk through of the facilities, showing things no one else has before.

    I can't stand the crap that Whitfield stands for. He profits on kids dreams to get to college. I wouldn't have a problem if he just worked with college and NFL QB's. Plus he is about himself, on College Gameday and all that crap.

    BUT, if you want someone to help deliver you a QB to your school, he would be the best guy for it.

    I don't have a problem with guys that are coaching kids up beyond what HS coaches can do (and let's be honest, most HS coaches are reasonable but not great) ...

    Where I draw the line and what I get pissed off about is when guys talk about and make promises about how if they work with you you will send them to college, etc.

    I mean, anything's better than losing the second coming of Drew Bledsoe from MFing Lake Stevens. Give this guy, Willie Lyles and Clarkson $5mil next year, get Fran Tarkenton and Yogi Roth hookers or whatever needs to happen. Call Obama and tell him a lion got shot so he can cry with Jimmy Kimmel from the oval office about it, give Ted Cruz another $3mil from oil companies, let Putin have Crimea; whatever it fucking takes—if we lose one more in-state 5-star kid I'm going to go mental and if it's at QB I will kill the OC, the HC and the QB coach.

    FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.

    Have you even bothered to ask Derek if he wants Crimea?
    I think that's the new name for the Tug Tavern

    Too many corny phrases around Husky Stadium, locker rooms, weight room, etc. Just play football and win. Is some kid going to play better at practice because he reads "Us vs. Them?"

    Really stupid, and very sark-like.

    Sometimes you've got to fight fire with fire. Or not.

    It's Petersen's system.

    Fuck you.

    Look, I'm not going to advocate for people to be censored (like the d-bags that ruined DM), nor am I going to lecture anybody. I will only say that this lockerroom has the opportunity to become a REAL and UNFILTERED alternative to DM.

    Idiot. Every good coach uses this shit. Shit, James used it! Your ignorance comes from never playing a team sport (Being on Obamas "TEAM" doesn't count/idiot).

    Ignorance is bliss...for you, it's what you've based your life on.

    How about something super gay like "Heat from the edge and pressure up the middle"?

    You've been a fucking douche for way too long...

    I know what you mean and I am very jaded and cynical about this type of stuff too by now after 15 years of unparalleled heartbreak and disappointment.

    But if Petersen with all his accolades etc can't do it, time to set the program on fire, sweep away the ashes of the program, and salt the earth.

    Or just use the money that UW has to hire another coach. If Petersen doesn't get it done, it's on him. Same for Sark and the crapola (we should just quit the bs and swear on this board) before him. I know we like to joke that UW is Minnesota, but it's not.
