I'm all about getting great in state OL to stay put. It's a position that requires selfless team pride to be successful. I think guys that are local would gel better as a unit as long as they can hack it. Imagine Elder, Kalepo, Davidson and even Thomas after the redshirt year that they'll probably all get to develop their strength, speed, and technique. Own the state.
I want Davidson bad. He will be one that we regret if we don't land him. Who cares if he 6'1" or 6', college is different. Idc if hes a pro prospect, I care about perform for UW prospects, and he will be good. If he goes to Stanford and is all pac two times then someone better bump this

It does look like Stanford is interested as is Cal and WSU apparently. I doubt anyone could compete other than Stanford in that field. I will say I have seen him and Kalepo compete side by side and Davidson is the better lineman but Kalepo likely has the higher upside. They both got lineman MVP at NW Elite. Kids a stud and you don't start for four years on a team like Richland without being a serious competitor and driven. That said, I'm sure UW, now that they can recruit nationally, is being selective here.

Tom Lemming seems to feel this guys a solid recruit and UW appears to agree. And I agree with Lemming in that he could be a 4 star this time next year. So could Elder.
Whoa he's one ugly bastard.... I want him even more now. Imagine him and Jaxson K trying to get laid, being stifled, and taking it out on whoever they play next.
Bailey Elder vs Spanaway Man, this kid can move for his size. He has to have invested some serious time in mobility this off-season.
Nathaniel Kalepo no film (forfeit)- Saw him at the Fresno state game though, good grief that kid is massive and getting bigger.
Davison is a nasty kid.
Also - fuck, what did I just see? Is that good film from Cole Thomas?!!? That was impressive.
A lot of these young, rich and white kids are late developers... His power has really improved. You don't see him run around much in that film, but he looks pretty god damn good.

The first part of that sentence might get you on Chris Hansen's radar. I agree though, Thomas is starting to look good. I still don't think he projects as a UW player but could still play Pac-12 if he keeps improving.
Davison is looking mean and athletic and I love the fact he plays defense (and plays it well apparently). I am wondering, due to his size, if he might morph into a D-line recruit. Kid is fast and can move laterally well.
I am still convinced there are things behind the scenes that are preventing Elder from getting some early offers. Kid is good, large and mobile.
Elder continues to look good but you can tell his previous opponents are probably freshman or sophomores in many cases. Bonney Lake had better athletes than he is use to I think.
Davison may wind up being a DL recruit at some point although I still think he projects better as a nasty center. His opponents are less than impressive as well so it will be interesting to see how well he does when he is deep in the playoffs against some solid players.
Kalepo's film this week is, well, less than impressive and should help folks understand why he might not be the best OL on his team even though he is a 4 star recruit and projects well.

Bonney Lake is known for clock control on offense and great defensive effort. They have guys up front. That's how they've surprised a couple of opponents and made it to the state quarterfinals over the past couple of years

Aric Davison vs Kennewick He is really starting to play nasty.

This has probably been covered but buy a fucking vowel
