Was Vita a Sark recruit?

uziuzi Member Posts: 1,298

My buddy (former player that doesn't post) is predicting a drop off on our D after all of the Sark recruits are gone.

He cites Vita as a prime example of the kind of D guys we aren't getting anymore, because some of the best players aren't OKGs...

I'm not even sure. Was Vita a Sark recruit? Who else?

All of the consternation about our DL recruiting has me wondering about this guy's prediction that some of the best players aren't OKGs with great grades from stable families.

    Isn't Kim. It is a buddy of mine that was on the team in the early 80s (walk on), and has been a season ticket holder ever since. He loves Pete, but is contending that the OKG dynamic is going to lose us some great talent, and that Pete should ease off of that a bit.

    Anyway, I was just trying to figure who from the current D were Sark recruits, to see how this theory plays out.

    55 you numbnuts. Huge dropoff in '18. You counted interior ol-dl recruiting under Pete? Horrifying. Still thinks hes in mwc. 2 Dts in 2 years. Levi o could serve there he has to. Peter should call Dick Baird and ask how to recruit properly in Pac.

    And im the only pete fa n here. Maybe CowHen can patch me thru to petes cell, ole Pup can have a word with him

    Devs? Seriously, is there a way for me to close my question after it has been answered?

    Some of these responses are getting out of hand.

    It's still better than Sark's OL and DL recruiting. The bar has been raised and it needs to, as well as should, be better, but it's not that bad. Harris will be good and hopefully Roberts and Wattenberg turn out to be players.

    Interior OL isn't as worrisome as the tackles. I agree we need some big boys that can play interior DL.

    Levi is up 16lbs this year and listed at 290.

    I don't think he is retarded, but he does have big ego. He was one of the top athletes coming out of Lakes in 1980, but had to accept a walk-on spot at UW under James if he wanted to play at UW (his schollie offers were to smaller programs).

    Maybe guys with big egos, aren't as impressed with Petersen's OKG thing, because it doesn't reward having a big ego -- as this very timely ESPN article indicates: http://www.espn.com/blog/ncfnation/post/_/id/137863/why-chris-petersen-believes-washington-can-have-it-all

    I'm fine with the OKG thing, as long as we keep getting recruits like Vita, who I thought was a Sark recruit when I posted the initial question -- but later learned was a Petersen signee.

    Though, I would have preferred to keep guys like String and Peters on the team -- but I guess they weren't OKGs.

    Any idiot can see Vea committed to Sark along with Sidney Jones and Budda Baker on July 6th.
