"I think it's important for people to handle their own journey," explained Mario Banchero, which suggests he subscribes to this theory. But just because there's no pressure from the family to stay home, or from Banchero's friends to stay home, that doesn't mean there isn't pressure from fans to stay home. As Mario Banchero put it, "Seattle is a pretty polite city on the surface — but Twitter is rude everywhere."

For example ...

"There's a kid who is [a 5-star prospect] in the Class of 2020 for football [from the Seattle area], and he said, 'I wanna go away from home for school,'" Mario Banchero said. "Then, immediately, the less-desirable of our Husky brethren, they're like, 'Oh, he's a diva!' They turned on him. Then, two months later, he retweets a picture that has Washington in it -- and the same people are like, 'Oh, we love him!'

"It's so fickle," Mario Banchero added. "So you just can't pay attention to it."
Smalls is a diva.
hahah trying being top 10 recruit and not be a diva

But still...

Seriously, is this the final straw to where people understand that these kids are going though shit and don’t even know what their gonna have for dinner let alone decide on a 40 year decision? If they say some stupid shit just chalk it up to being 17. We need to give recruits the benefit of the doubt like we do a Clay Helton, they always need more tim.

Go look up Chris Herren’s story (you don’t have to actually just sounded cool). A huge part of where his initial insecurity that lead to insane drug use despite playing in the NBA, was Rick Pitino and Billy Donovan showing up to watch him and offer him before he turned 15. They don’t know who they are let alone what “culture” they will best align with. Especially when Millionaire coaches target outgoing kids that do not live with their biological fathers.

Why would Sav’ell see Willie as a liar greasy salesman when he envisioned someone like willie being his mentor or role model as someone from a less than ideal background who used football to ensure his family of millions of dollars.

I gotta check myself here and prolly stop smoking so much weed and stop getting comically excited about something I’ve literally never seen before, UDUB being the premier destination for the best west coast recruits.

My last piece as the most millennial doog: Savell Smalls is coming here or all that love he desires is going to Sam & JT. No teenager wants to miss out on the cool shit. Get Banks, Esteen, Covington, Latu, Another 21 and close this Baby Khalil Mack

I really don't understand the transfer to Kennedy if he's not interested in being a Husky. You're telling me he's going to catch passes from Sam Huard all year (assuming he plays both sides) and then give UW a big middle finger? What a weird move if that's the case.

I hate to say it... but man, if I were Sam Huard I'd be pissed. I'd be thinking why tf are you coming here if you don't wanna build something with me down the road?

Yup.

I don't know the details but he may have been feeling it at Kennedy because Garfield became no-go ... then he soured and now it's too late to change schools. Whatever.
