There’s a lot of doom and gloom around here considering HH never thought Tuitele would come to UW, or we? would get serious consideration from McCoy or To’oto’o, so take a minute and remember that we? signed the best DT in Cali last year, have a commitment from 3/4 of the best DT this year (again one being the best in Cali, and one the best player in Hawaii,) we? have the most outrageous DB room in the country, the OL recruiting took off, and we? are still in play on some of the top players in the west who are all planning on committing later in the season. We? will never sign a buck, but in all seriousness if we? land a surprise like Latu or To’oto’on it wouldn’t even be that much of a shock considering how strong the class is, and how we? finished last years recruiting cycle. At this point in time, I’m more concerned with the product on the field, because that will sell the last few holdouts better than being better salesman than Oregon.

We have 3 recruiters that fuck on major level. Unfortunately they don’t recruit WR, LB

If you had to pick what positions you wanted your best recruiters I think we have them at 4 of the 5 most important spots. You'd probably rank them something like this (with 2-4 being somewhat interchangeable).

QB
DL
OL
Edge
DB

WR, ILB, RB and TE would all come after those 4, IMO.

No one is arguing we shouldn't get more, I was specifically addressing WAC's point that we have 3 recruiters who fuck (actually 4) but "unfortunately they aren't at WR or LB". Given that amount, we have them where we want them. Of course I'd like more recruiters who fuck.

Try to read for context once in your life instead of just jumping to canned DDY rant. kthxbye.

This bored is Some poasters are bi-polar. When we get good news (Buelow makes it official!) we talk about the potentially greatest UW class of all time. When we get bad news ("The storm is coming" never materialized) we talk about how we'll never sign a decent BUCK, ever.

Later. Rinse. Repeat.

Things haven't changed with me. I said this would be a monster class. It's going to be. My only concern now is that we whiff on Buck again like last year.

Agreed, it's going to be a great class. I think it will be a tick under last year's (though probably right there with it once you subtract Kaho, RIP), though if we pull a miracle with Bru or Ford it could surpass last year even.

This whole situation with the BUCK position reminds me when HH was worried about the lack of recruiting DTs over the pass couple of years.

In the end, Gaines decided to stay an extra year and the DT recruiting picked up and HH is not worried anymore.

I have a feeling the BUCK situation will resolve itself in time.

The BUCK issues are a much longer trend than DT was.

I don't think this is an overreaction like the DT panic was.

I have full confidence Ariel Ngata is going to become a stud. He's already showing flashes of what he can do.

Disagree! DTs we had a big issue for a year in crootin, while we had Gaines and Vea destroying everyone...and the issue was resolved in a major way in the next cycle (last year), and looks to now be a future position of major strength (this cycle)....DL looks like the DB room going forward...we are now on year 4 of no major Buck signings except maybe Ngata, but that is being generous because he wasn't some all world kid, and Tryon, who we lucked into and may or may not be great. Buck recruiting is without a doubt the single worst spot we have recruited at, and it has been going on for years....hell, even with all our OL crootin sucking for 3 years with Strausser at least the product on the field was pretty good...we have had some decent players the last few years with Feeney and Littleton and of course Jamora, but overall I'd say pressure from the edge has sucked ass for a few years now....and we have NOBODY in the pipeline to fix it if Ngata or Tryon don't pan out.

It's fucking abysmal...and we have once again recruited NOBODY this year, so no help is on the way when Ngata and Tryon are upperclassmen and LEAVE!
