    Gee comes off like a complete douche but I am open to the idea that I do not in any way understand his perspective or where he came from. The guy went from washing Seahawks' cars to a career in local sports journalism. He has hustle and some kind of talent.

    Yeah, he clearly has a bone to pick with CP and is overinvolved in Jr's career, so what? This isn't a fucking peewee team. Helicopter parents shouldn't scare us away from an elite talent. This is NCAA big boy football, CP should be able to handle Sr. without any effect on his program or its culture. In fact, having Sr. on your side promoting UW on twitter, etc. could actually be a good thing. If it isn't working out for Jr. he doesn't have to remain an unhappy member of the team in today's culture- he can just enter the portal.

    It would be a different story if Jr. was uncoachable but ummmm he is lighting it up with FSP with no issues with teammates or coaches. He hasn't transferred high schools a single time. Never been suspended or benched. Apparently yelled at his coach- and that coach is now gone. Get over it.

    Offer him.

    Agree with most of this except for Gee Sr. having some kind of talent, but he can hustle. I'll give him that, but he was clearly originally hired because of his connections with Seahawk players. Did you ever listen to him talk sports on 710? It was fuckin painful. There's a reason he's now on KIRO at 7:00 PM talking politics.

    It’s not we are leading for or in a good spot for two superior prospects in Johnny and Jalen

    Take all three and Hobert in the slot.

    Level up.

    Superior is questionable. Gee appears to me to at least to be in the same class.

    "Leading for" and "in a good spot" are wishy-washy doogman bullshit.

    What do you estimate as our actual chances of landing Johnny? Jalen? We have to go head to head with all the big boys on both.

    Meanwhile we had this kid in our backyard that would have committed in a second. We fucked up. Lets try to save it.

    Best guess we get Jalen and not Jonny. But I think it's more likely we get both than neither. We are in a very good spot.

    I’m more confident on Johnny than Jalen and I’m pretty damn confident on Jalen

    With how much shit Sr. has spewed, why would anybody think that Gee Jr. is more likely to commit than than Wilson or McMillan? Seems that bridge is burned and it's time to get over it. Closer proximity to UW campus does not mean fewer barriers to overcome. For instance, he's already committed to aOSU.

    I don't think he's more likely at this point. I think he would have been more likely had we offered him when we could/should have.
    Exactly.

    And I think we are all pretty much on the same page regarding Johnny and Jalen.

    We might be in a "good place" but one is more likely than both.

    I am a little more pessimistic- I think 0 is also more likely than both.

    I trust Petersen more than FremontTroll’s evaluation. Must be a good reason we aren’t offering him.

    There is a reason. Doesn't mean its a good one.

    An offer would be a waste. I think the Scott’s laughing at it and rejecting it out of spite is more likely than anything else. The bridge has been nuked at this point.

    If Junior was going to Wazzu or Oregon State maybe, but I think some of you are dooging just a little hard if you think JR is going to back out of his OSU commitment with a late UW offer. Especially when UW fans have gotten into it at times got into it with SR on twitter. He seems like a pretty stubborn guy.

    Yeah I see this as most likely as well. At this point Sr wants the offer so he can reject it.
    If he did get an offer from UW I could totally see his Dad tweet some lyrics of the great Rap artist Mike Jones, “Back then hoes didn’t want me, now I’m hot hoes all on me.”
    Got a lot of haters and a lot of homies, some friends and some phony
