    I find it funny how we recruit better in Arizona and Utah than in Washington lol.

    Cuz no one wants to stay in state anymore. My generation wants to get out lol.
    It's because your generation doesn't know what you're doing. I've lived in other places. Some good places, but also a lot of places populated by morons, and where opportunities are scarce.

    Western WA is better than most.

    Why would he ever want to leave Tucson?

    The only thing that would make this pic better is seeing eletise's sad face
    Losing Eletise was a blessing. Nick Harris got an offer right after Eletise committed to AZ. Abundance would be best, but Nick Harris will be an all conference player.
    I like Harris but he was outmatched at times last year. Would have LOVED to see eletise develop under this staff and what Socha could have done with him in the weight room. Plus we need more islanders on this team... I believe we only have 3 or 4.
    he was outmatched at times as a fucking true freshman? alert the media. come on man.
    did he not get replaced by andrew kirkland in a couple of games??? Not just USC and Alabama
    He was a goddamn true fucking freshman
    So when he's playing he's a fucking STUD... but when he get's replaced he was a true fucking freshman? I think Harris will be solid, I just think UW can do better on the OLine.
    I never said he was a stud. I think he's good and will get better and become really good. The issue was always Strausser not being able to recruit and that forced Harris to play as a true frosh. He went way above and beyond expectations last year but he was far from a great player. OL is probably one of the hardest positions to jump into straight out of high school just due to size/strength and learning proper technique.

    Harris will be on our? Starting line the next 3 years and has a good chance at being an all PAC player. Cherry picking the Bama/USC games to say we would do better is the same as cherry picking the Utah game to say how he is already one of the better PAC linemen.
    All Pac-12? He was only good at one thing last year. Lets see what kind of improvements he can make this year before proclaiming him an All-Pac-12 player. Plus I believe he was benched for more than the USC and Alabama games. I think he actually started against Bama but our entire Oline seemed to struggle against their DLine.
    I said he had a good chance and I didn't mean this coming year he would reach that.

    Our line struggled against Bama because it was one of the best defenses in CFB in the recent years.

    No shit man. I just think UW should be recruiting at a higher level across the OL. We'll see how good Huff is.

    I agree with that. I just think calling Huff a shit recruiter when he hasn't even been given one recruiting cycle is dramatic. It would be the same thing saying he is a great recruited just because he got Mele.
