The other great part is that Loy has been telling them for months that Gordon is the #1 defensive prospect on their board. That coupled with his original crystal ball of Gordon to ND has created an awesome scenario for this meltdown.
A few more for you poors out there. All of these are from the latest Gordon thread. Our ND poster is downplaying it a little bit, they are more upset than he says. However he is also correct in saying that it is not the top news of the day.
1. "Too many misses by ND every year late. It's a good class but not great. It's a 7 to 9 win class."
Little over the top if you ask me.
2. "If Jimmy Lake was such a great recruiter he would have gotten Patrick Surtain of Louisiana or Houston Griffith of Chicago to come to Washington not some local kid who was a sure thing from the beginning. Todd Lyght almost stole him away and that makes me think that Lake barely averted looking like a fool."
Lol.
3. "Script look at bracy and Wilkins offer list, ND was by far their best offer. It's not close, Lyght should be able to close guys when we miss an entire year and the guys he closes have pretty underwhelming offer list but sure he crushed it this cycle...."
4. "We have an 8 win coach, that's the bigger issue. A single recruiting class won't change anything."
Refreshing honesty. Yes you do have an 8 win coach. Good luck!
5. "Yup. If our guys recruited like Lake did in this instance Gordon would’ve canceled the UW visit. Hats off to Lake in this case."
Fair.
6. "Washington pays more than we do?"
Sadly I think we left our coffee cup days behind us with Sark.
7. "Exactly, Washington was in the playoffs 2 years ago and is in another new years 6 bowl this season. Notre dame has had 12 losses the last 2 seasons, maybe win a little more."
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. This guy gets it.
8. "Jimmy Lake has ONE signed DB, 3-Star CB Dominique Hampton from Peoria, AZ. Let’s hear a big round of applause.

I love how these ND fans take time to dislike a DB coach from Washington

Too much attention paid to "stars" by some in that exchange. Riddle me this, which program has put more DBs in the NFL since 2014?
Am I the only person who thinks there is a chance Gordon goes on local tv and picks ND? He is a 17-18 year old kid, he may not get how shitty that would look. It could be a "take my talents to South Beach" moment.

I sure hope he becomes a Husky
I think there is still a very real possibility he picks ND. Maybe I'm just being pessimistic but I'm not quite sold that this is a done deal. Everything would point to him being a UW lean, but he's been extremely quiet over the last week, who knows what he's thinking.

7-Day Free Trial.
Most are upset over Irvin.
And the others are actually wanting Boykin more than Gordon, because Boykin is 6’2 & ND needs length at CB.
The vibe among ND fans was get Irvin & Boykin & be done. Now they are all bummed about Irvin.
Then two idiots shoplifted & got kicked out today also, including ND’s fastest & most dynamic WR.
So what I have seen today is about 1% Gordon talk since they know he is staying in UW.
