    For those that like to say 1 in 3 recruiting is good ... I'd also like to point out that where that came from was that IF there were 3 elite prospects out of SoCal, the idea being that USC would get 1, UCLA would get 1, and UW would get 1 ... and that the reason the UW prospect would be better was because he'd get better coaching and have more of a chip on his shoulder. 1 in 3 never applied to local kids.

    As it pertains to OL recruiting and the 1 of 3 ...

    Bainivalu SHOULD have been a slam dunk given location and that he was more of a PAC recruit than he was a national recruit.

    Fozzy being an in-state kid SHOULD be a minor favorite to UW but going nationally isn't a complete shock historically ... the big miss here (assuming that he goes to Stanford) wasn't that he left but that there was at best a very small window where having any expectation that we could be in the lead was reasonable.

    AVT wasn't a SoCal kid ... he was a NoCal kid. Because of that, the USC/UCLA pull SHOULD have been less ... add to it the fact that he goes to a school that not only have we recruited reasonably well as of late (see Camilo Eifler), but the HC of that school is probably on the short list of all-time Husky Legends in Nip ... this is a kid that we should have been able to win over with high end recruiting ... instead he chose USC BEFORE they had even turn things around ... that's a FAIL by us in recruiting.

    He was being crooted by Michigan lol STFU
    Also pretty sure Michigan was full on the OL and he may not have had a commitable offer ... Dennis or Pepsi can probably speak better to that

    Tequilla, Nobody cares. I always said I would love Pete if he won. I like discussing Husky Football because I've been a fan my whole life. What a confusing concept.

    To you and many other dumb ass doog's surprise, I enjoy it when UW is good.

    Sounds to me like you are a bandwagon front runner to me

    So we should go ahead and add Bainavalu to your list of husky o line recruits that don't actually count?

    Go find any place where I said that ...

    What I said was that you need a strong and deep class if competing at the national level ... if he is your 3rd or 4th OL that's a GREAT class ... if he is your best probably not deep enough ...

    Wait if Bainivalu is your best online recruit that's a problem?

    Just stop talking.

    According to 24/7 Bainivulu is the highest rated OL Petersen has ever gotten. Higher than Adams, McGary, Roberts, and Wattenberg.
    And how many OL do you start?

    You need more than 1 elite high end guy per class ... I know that's hard for you and a few others around here to understand.
