Everyone who flagged me doesn't get this place AT ALL and should probably kill themselves as penance. You bunch of sissy faggots. And she does look 14, which is almost too old for me. She just made the cut. Lucky her.

If you read Sarrell's latest comments, he's basically trying to justify going to 'furd, in his own mind. His decision to commit in the next month is not a good sign.
Yeah, Stanford "education" is still trending steady as always ... but Washington is no slouch academically ... and football is moving forward like a bullet train.
By all accounts he's a smart guy.
This is what i'd do:
- watch the rest of the season. - if Stanford recovers and their O-line performs as "expected" and MCCaffery runs roughshod ... then make your choice. - this is the big question. - watch what UW does, the expectations is that UW under Petersen's leadership will be moving forward and maintaining the high level of excellence that we've seen emerging this year. - if that remains evident then make your choice.
I'd love for the best talent to come to UW, doesn't always happen ... but from this year forward it's my expectation that whatever talent comes to Washington will be coached up and moulded into football players that will carry UW to the highest levels. That's exciting stuff.
Does FS want to get on the elevator that's almost reached the top floor? Or take a chance on the elevator that's having performance issues, perhaps reliability problems ... and may not stay at the penthouse that it used to be accustomed to staying the last while?
I think he really wants to go to Stanford but hasn't committed because Washington's OL plays better and Stanford is a dumpster fire. No one likes jumping onto a sinking ship. Now he's just trying to convince himself why he needs to go to Stanford.
you go to stanford, you major in science technology and society (which is the jock major at stanford that lets everyone know you're a jock who didn't get into the school on your academic merits). maybe you play in the NFL, maybe you don't. in the bay and at stanford -- you're the pariah. kleiner perkins isn't hiring you. google or facebook aren't hiring you. you will have an asterisk next to your stanford degree for as long as you live because you're an athlete, especially a football player. i've sat in countless hiring committees and repeatedly watched hiring managers laugh and then scold their recruiters for bringing them "pseudo ivies" aka scholarship athlete stanford/ivy people.
at washington, in a city lorded over by uw people, you will forever be the hometown hero. people will crawl over each other in an attempt to get you set for life and networked. you go to an elite school, represent your hometown/family/friends, nfl or not you can go any direction and get recognized.

yeah, I don't post much. I think that was post #10 in the last couple of years. I've been around the husky block since the Don James era ... and i'm almost embarrassed to say that I still enjoy teen boy stalking, as it pertains to the health of UW football/basketball/whatever.
I love the Fultz, Porter Jr talent infusion/recruiting trend with Romar ... that's exciting.

seriously, that is the worst pitch i've ever seen. you sound bitter, "lived here" for a couple years then couldn't hack it (get it, "hack"...har har har) and really think he won't get hired at facebook but would be a fucking hero in seattle. and regarding a stanford athlete, pics or it didn't happen dude because if it's not Logan Tom or someone who looks a hella lot like Alison Stokke then sorry, steak knives. hit the bricks.

Absolutely correct DG.
I went to the Notre Dame game at Stanford last year. It was Stanford's final home game and they introduced all of Stanford's seniors. Around 25% of them majored in "Science, Technology and Society." I researched that degree and concluded that at just about every other University the degree would be called "Interdisciplinary Studies," meaning sufficient credits earned in various lower level courses to graduate but no emphasis in anything worthy of a degree in a particular area of study.

He's clearly got some reservations.
Like Boise St during their heyday ... but using Pac12 level talent and athletes. This is going to be awesome to watch for the long haul.
While all this is happening in front of our eyes you have Stanford trending downwards and people asking writing articles wondering what's happening?
