CB David Long (Stanford Commit)

bananasnblondes

Biggins says Long will officially visit UW this weekend or next weekend and will set up an in-home with the coaches soon afterwards.

UW was his clear 2nd choice when he committed to Stanford. If they can flip him, a DB class of him, Gilchrist, Love, and Rapp would be tits.

Biggins also said, UW has as good of a chance as anyone of landing WR Javon McKinley. Earlier in the day, Eklund said UW was all but out of it for McKinley.

Eklund has been throwing darts blind for 2 years about Pete's recruiting. I really like McKinley. Watched his game vs Mater Dei this week. Eklund quit doing position breakdowns on who Dawgs were recruiting when he did a full list of wr's we were after........ 2 hours later Aaron Fuller commits Who was of course not on the list. Although Scout reporter from Midlands area should have had a clue.

McKinley would be HUGE.... But I just don't see it happening, he is big time and we haven't really landed a big time WR with this staff yet.

Long I would love too, but I think Michigan might actually be the team to beat now.

Weren't we recruiting Long as a WR?

I think that was Byron Murphy. Long wants to play DB and special teams

Javon McKinley sounds too much like Jaydon Mickens. I don't know if I could tolerate hearing anything close to that name for another 4-5 years.

Long is not visiting this weekend and is instead visiting in January. He's checking out UCLA instead this weekend. Hopefully UW can get him up that weekend when Eifler and all those other guys are visiting.

Ektard is your source? I think he'll visit and commit this weekend.

Cook it!

I'd love to get a DT in this class (Boss T?).

I'd love to get a top WR...should be attractive for one after Browning took his lumps as a true frosh (and so did Trey Adams and McGary as a RS-Frosh).

I'd love to throw tons of coffee cups at Eletise too but maybe he drinks tea.

Would love to DOOG OUT and get Eason too. Would he be willing to RS though? Probably not and Georgia still makes the most sense for him in terms of PT fast. Florida could also be attractive but Harris will be a JR and Grier will be a RS-Soph. Not much better than Browning as a true soph and there's always a chance Browning leaves after starting for 3 years so Eason would be a RS-Soph who could leave after starting two years (if the production matches the hype).

UCLA just dropped a DB commit, I am worried about Long and UCLA. I think that is our main competition for him.

He gets a good education at either school. If he wants to play in the NFL, UW is the better place.

You are just worried that Coach Meat is going to get his claws into him

Ya but coach meat speaks Ebonics and is hip. This isn't the wac. If he canceled his visit and doesn't come before the army game he gone.

I hope Kentrell Love stays on board. Those 3 guys would make for a pants tightening CB class.

Jimmy Lake can easily show footage of Jones, King, Gardenhire and Baker all excelling on the field at the same time.

When did michigan come into the picture?

They've always been there. Harbaugh at Michigan is going to be pretty annoying for UW. He has a lot of roots in the bay and the competition in the area is going to increase. Already a lot of top 4 lists with UW and Michigan fighting it out. Petersen needs to take the next step on the field to legitimize what he's selling.

Michigan was my concern, as you can see above.

Good news is he has already visited Michigan and he has not visited here. We are in a terrific spot.
