Light rail and 35000 guaranteed renters makes for a investor gold rush in housingNEsnake12 said:
The reality is that it’s become prohibitively expensive to live in the U-District for a lot of students. Only those whose parents can afford to finance it. The light rail opening in 2021 will only make it worse, because all of the real estate developers are going to target downtown commuters instead of studentsdhdawg said:To their credit UW does accept a lot of instate students but many of them are commuters and again don't give a shit about football
UCLA and USC buy the parents homes to overcome this in LA -
I'm just impressed how he was able to fit all of this on the postcard.StrongArmCobra said:This is fucking unbelievable and an embarrassment to the program. Oregon coaches, players, and fans are fucking laughing at us. How the fuck could something as innocent and corny as "OKG" be blown up into something negative. Like, our team is not even a bunch of boy scouts. The black kids on our team are not a bunch of Carlton's. Culturally, there are kids on this roster just like Smalls. He hasn't even been around the players on the team enough to get a feel for them to see what it's really like. This reminds me of McGary almost going to Nebraska because he was afraid of being a white sheep here among a shit load of black and poly players. He got here, and realized how stupid he was for thinking that. The thing about recruiting a bunch of good dudes is that no matter what culture or background you come from, everybody gets along, there are no cliques, and it becomes a real brotherhood. Everybody and anybody can feel comfortable as a member of this team. It's the most diverse roster in the country.
This off season has been an absolute dumpster fire. Neither Haener or Eason lit it up this Spring. Haener threw a million picks and yet still got first team reps. He could do no wrong. We have no Spring game. The Spring preview is an embarrassment compared to our rivals Spring game and the Spring games of high profile schools across the nation. Two out of our top three most physically talented QB's entered the transfer portal. And now this? It's fucking May, UW hasn't even gotten their recruiting efforts really going yet and the biggest recruit in the state of Washington, who's from Seattle, has already eliminated them from consideration because of some venom and lies whispered into his ears on a visit to Oregon.
And is it just Small's that this venom from Oregon and other schools has affected? Why do we have zero black commits right now? Why did Kelee Ringo, who's also from Washington, seemingly already eliminate UW as well when he was all over us early in the process. What the fuck is going on? Are these recruits actually dumb enough to think Chris Petersen is racist or elitist? He's been a head coach for 12 years and has coached countless black and poly players. There has never been a single player that he's coached who has had a bad word to say about him. They all love the guy. Elitist? When he was at little podunk Boise State he was selling the same OKG shit while turning down big job offer after big job offer. Does that sound like a guy who's not down to earth? Sure, now that he's at UW he's selling better academics, but since when are good academics "elitist" and a bad thing? Smalls has like a 3.7 GPA or something like that. Why would he waste that intelligence at an SEC school? I thought he cared about going to a good Business school? Instead of being exceptional he all of a sudden just wants to be one of the guys at a mediocre academic school? Makes no sense.
This shit is so retarded. I think Jimmy Lake will be our head coach sooner than we think. I don't see Petersen putting up with this kind of bullshit for much longer. These fucking teenagers are so immature and stupid these days it's unbelievable and I just don't see him wanting to play these types of bullshit recruiting games much longer. Maybe I'm wrong and he just doesn't give a fuck because he believes so much in what he's doing that he's fine with Smalls going elsewhere because he thinks he can find some Joe Tryon 3-star kid elsewhere. But that's not gonna fucking happen. This is a colossal fail. Total dumpster fire right now. I'm not saying I want Petersen fired but if he decided to retire because he doesn't want to put up with shit like this and doesn't want to change his recruiting strategy, then Jimmy Lake as the head coach while retaining most if not all of the staff sounds pretty good right now. We need to combine the Built For Life shit with some JUICE and SWAG and EXCITEMENT! Otherwise we look like a fucking boring, limp dick program. I know that isn't the case behind the scenes. The players seem to really enjoy their time here and are really sad to leave when their time is up. But that's the perception on the outside because we don't have any weekly vlogs to show recruits the culture and the fun the players have inside the program. So they don't know. We have zero transparency and zero substantial media for the fans and recruits to get an inside look at the program like every other major program in the country does. It's so annoying.
Jen Cohen needs to step the fuck up and force some changes. Petersen having complete control over the football program is not going to work long term. She needs to force him to do shit he doesn't want to do like a Spring game and more access to his program. It would be so fucking easy for UW to destroy in recruiting if we just got with the FUCKING TIMES! Who the fuck wants to go to Oregon's big recruiting weekend in shitty ass Eugene when they can go to UW's big recruiting weekend on Montlake in sunny Seattle in the Spring or Summer? Build that excitement. Create that sense of urgency and competition for recruits to lock up their spot. Jesus, it's not that fucking hard. Just let the kids be kids and get them excited about being WASHINGTON HUSKIES! The program and the winning and the draft picks will do the rest. MAKE WASHINGTON FOOTBALL FUN AGAIN! -

Oregon has walk-ons too. Black and white ones, even. Crazy, I know.FremontTroll said:
From the perspective of a 5* recruit? No, not really.CallMeBigErn said:
Are walk-ons not real people?FremontTroll said:
You included walk-ons.CallMeBigErn said:
Well it is. A fucking flea could see that there is hardly a difference in roster composition. Charts and stats? Get the fuck outta here. I just busted through the rosters in 5 minutes. If Smalls is swayed by this, that is absolutely insane. It also should be an easy hose off if that truly is the reason he's eliminating us.FremontTroll said:
I literally told you that this was what is happening and that it is totally logical.CallMeBigErn said:
This is insane. Oregon's total roster is 48% black (50/104) and UW's is 39% black (40/103). Yeah they have a few more, but nothing significant. UW has a few more Polys, but nothing significant.tysenallumbaugh said:CallMeBigErn said:The word from Sonics1993 on Dawgman is that Oregon is calling the OKG system elitist and racist, and they're in Savell's head. Sonics1993 says it's working. Sonics1993 would be very surprised if Savell signs with UW.
“Yup, coaches had stats and chart about the lack of African-American players on the roster and there coaching staff had KT and Delgado in his ear the whole trip about this. The whole “wanting to leave home for college” is a made up excuse as far as why he is eliminating Washington. Real reason is he views the “OKG” elitist and doesn’t believe he fits it.”CallMeBigErn said:The word from Sonics1993 on Dawgman is that Oregon is calling the OKG system elitist and racist, and they're in Savell's head.

I'm about ready to turn Eugene back into Skinner's Mudhole.
And now that it is confirmed that Oregon was using the difference in roster composition against us instead of questioning your prior assumptions like a logical person would do...
you double down on being right and decide that the world is just insane.
Good luck with that.
Now look the 2018 and 2019 kids that will be Savell's teammates for the three years he is in school.
14/43 black kids signed by UW.
32/50 Oregon
And oh by the way UW has been eliminated by most of the top black West Coast recruits in 2020 already.
Do you have any factual response to my numbers or are you turning to "humor" because the argument is over?
Your numbers are correct. Oregon had more black recruits the last 2 classes. Now carry on. -
You should see the apartment complexes they are building. For a single it's like 1500/month minimum. No student can possibly afford that.RaceBannon said:

I am in no means saying that savell didn't like UW because of the area or it's academic culture, but there is a lot about UW that is very off-putting -
Not at all. Smalls appears to be malleable if this type of shit works on him. Bring out the fire hose.BeerThirty said:does anybody think this is really over?

Westwood is full of that -
But I'll agree that Seattle sucks
So does Tallahassee -
Do ya think if my numbers are correct (64% black fresh/soph for UO, 33% for UW) that that might be something Oregon could use against UW on black recruits? Just maybe?CallMeBigErn said:
