McCoy's dad said they got in late last night but had a great time. Said they love coach Pete and the game atmosphere was great as well. We'll catch up with McCoy later today/tonight for a full trip recap.
A few more notes here, pops said Sean McGrew and Jacob Eason were Bru's hosts and showed him a great time. They played late Friday night and he didn't even get to sleep before heading to the airport Saturday morning. Then got about 3 hours of sleep Saturday night and another full day of activities Sunday. This quote stood out for me, "Petersen has built an unreal culture of great football players and better young men. UW is one of the few programs out West that has the resources and coaching to compete for a National Championship."

Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei five-star athlete Bru McCoy took his second official visit to Washington over the weekend.
"Coach Petersen is on a different level," his father Horace McCoy tells 247Sports on Tuesday. "Not only does he have a great culture, high-character kids/coaches. He cares about them as men. Every day they spend time on working on being better young men and not just football players. As a father that is most important to me. My son is more than just a football player. Football will end one day, hopefully no time soon, and when it does I want a better man when the game is done. Coach Petersen has left no doubt in our minds in his ability to achieve that goal." -
I shouldn't get my hopes up, but I am dooging after that report.

Tell those guys on the usc boreds. They love being reminded that they could have crushed the west coast for two decades or until Peterman retired.UDubHusky23 said:
God could you imagine if Petersen took the USC job.... recruiting would have been on another level for himDomicillo said:Petersen to USC confirmed.
Thanks be to Allah to Saint Haden. -
I know he wants to play WR and he's a very good one, but Smalls and McCoy at Buck/Sam, a bunch of huge Poly's on the DL, and the loaded secondary that we are guaranteed to have would be a championship level defense.

I have managed to stay completely realistic about our zero chance at this kid until these comments from his dad.
Now I’m going to be broken when he goes to USC like I knew he would all along.
Damn this hopeless doog inside of me. -
I imagine him being a two way player if by some miracle UW lands him

To give myself some credit, though, it's because it just makes no sense to me why these kids would choose to go to USC. I get family, location, etc. This isn't fuck around at practice as a little kid time any more, though. This is about your LIFE, and hopefully, your JOB. Why would you CHOOSE that record of proven underperformance and unsettled coaching situation when this is your LIVELIHOOD in question?
The other day there was a thread talking about Myles Murao, the great OG prospect from Mater Dei. "Yeah, too bad he's going to USC" was the wrap-up. WHY?!? Quick quiz: How many guards has USC had go in the NFL draft in the last TEN years? Answer: ZERO. Not one. Why the fuck, if you are a guard, would you put your future in the hands of people that couldn't get one fucking guy drafted at your position in the last ten years?! (Probably includes at least one 5-star and ten 4-star prospects, by the way).
Know how many running backs USC has had go in the first two days of the NFL draft the last ten years? One. A 2nd-rounder. This is "tailback U" where they've probably had several 5-star guys recruited in that time frame.
To be fair, they have some success with WRs. But not enough. Guys like JuJu and Robert Woods are doing great in the NFL. So why were they 2nd-round draft picks? They have all these 5-star recruits. 5-star recruits should be turned into 2nd-rounders, they should be 1st-rounders. At USC guys basically stumble their way into the draft and then the NFL finds out if they can play or not.
