    The logic is you don't have a single receiver graduating and not likely to have much in the way of couch sales at the position (would love to be wrong on this part). Not to mention you have too many schollies dedicated to the position as it is.

    As DDY has relentlessly pointed out we have virtually as many WR as OL on scholarship. That's a massive problem. We dedicated 6 schollies over the last two classes to fix the issues at WR and another in this class. If those 7 can't get it done then there's something wrong that's not going to be fixed by adding Darien Chase.

    I don't disagree but this also seems like a situation of "as long as we get X number of good receivers in the next class then it doesn't matter that we only sign one guy in this class."

    Chase is on par athletically with the guys we have recruited at that position in the last two classes, has position flexibility and is a slam dunk as far as the effort needed to get his commitment. If he was a JAG I would be OK! with passing on him but he seems like a very good prospect.

    I guess I am sort of defaulting to "take the athletic, in-state kid at a position of need."

    I just don't think it's a position of need, otherwise agree.

    I won't be at all upset if they take Chase. I don't want them to take another receiver unless he's a clear cut #1 guy, which none of those guys are coming here.
    Per the "big recrootin" bored they only had 3 WR targeted this cycle but a lot more for 2019. We already have 1 and struck out on another so I suspect they are done barring a big surprise. Will see more guys next year with the projected roster turnover.

    IIRC line players in the west are thinner next year as well. Better to load the lines this year to make up for some whiffs and lack of depth so we aren't trying to fill that out in a down year.

    Considering we’ve struck out on all our WR targets shouldn’t we be going after this guy? In state kid, athletic, could switch to DB if we somehow flip/land some other guys out of nowhere.

    I don’t really see a good reason not to take him.

    Lubic needs to be fired now
    STOp. If we learned anything from Malloe it's not to overrate anything that happens in one class where we have only one or two schollies at a position. If Lubick strikes out next year sure send him door ass out. If we had fired Malloe when everyone wanted him gone (including me) we would have done ourselves a massive disservice.

    LIFPO on Lubick.
    There is world where we would be better off without lubic. Damaged goods
