To tell you the truth the message "Come here if you want to win"animate said:Man, getting kids to buy into winning as a team is still harder than it looks I guess. Even with Washington's recent success and Petersen's long history of same.
resonates with kids in about 3 programs: Bama, Clemson, and OSU.
Until you are a big time consistent winner over a number of years,
that is not currently a sales pitch that will work at UW. Put together 3
or 4 more seasons like the last two then you got something. Those
above three programs can sell "win it all with us". We're not there yet. -

It seems like 4 factors drive recruiting more than anything else.
-location (see texas and USC)
-flash (this is how used car salesmen like taggart are able to succeed)
-winning (we're getting there, but not there yet in terms of reputation)
-academis (fuck Stanford)
the kids we get seem to be very similar in that they're looking for a solid combination of those things. but where the struggles come from is that UW is not elite in any of those categories.
Chance to get to the nfl may factor a bit, but teams who have Terrible records of doing that are still big time draws so who knows

In ruth's latest he claims he forgot to mention uw as one of his favorites.
Says he's visiting in January -

Winning contributes to branding, payments and sleaziness contribute to salesmanship. -
Washington is the lunch pail blue collared type of salesman trying to sell on value right now.

He has a bunch of cbs to USC but right now 247 says Oklahoma and A&M are leading. Hat on the table for him will be special. Did USC cool on him?
-
Lol his hashtag changed to a Georgia hashtag because CFP. Fuuuuuuuuuuck!
-
The 247 thing where it says warm/warmer can be a joke. A&M will be interesting with Jimbo now, He's USCs until he isn't probably. I think we have a small chance with him.Edwin_Bambino said:He has a bunch of cbs to USC but right now 247 says Oklahoma and A&M are leading. Hat on the table for him will be special.

How many times have you seen recruiting pics of kids with their arms around Coach K making him look like a dwarf ...FKA_Mousecop said:
Time to start that official count ... -

McClain to USC open up a crack in the door with this guy? He has a visit scheduled to UW in January.

I'd say it increases our chances marginally but they still aren't very high.Edwin_Bambino said:McClain to USC open up a crack in the door with this guy? He has a visit scheduled to UW in January.
It does help that we can narrow nearly all of our focus on him, but it's an uphill battle for sure. We need him to have an amazing visit. -
The high of all of our kids signing today I guess has worn off because here I am again twitter stalking our remaining offers.

Need to confirm a few things but you guys will be the first to know as soon as I do. Basically hearing Martin is a UW lean but he also really likes USC and is also considering other schools heavily.bananasnblondes said:

So he's a heavy lean to UW but you wouldn't say they are the favorite to land him.CuntWaffle said:

I'll get my edit guy on this, see if we can figure out where he is going

Correct. If I had to guess I think he ends up at UW but there is also a very good chance he doesn't. We will see, either way it will be interesting.bananasnblondes said:

If Kawasaki lands him. I will stop posting for a month.

I'm hearing he may become an ax murderer, or perhaps a best selling author of children's books. But then again he may do neither.CuntWaffle said:
