Numbers, Going Forward, This Class, Etc.

I'd be really surprised if Sosebee leaves.

I'd be somewhat surprised if James leaves just because if Nick Harris doesn't work out at Center for some crazy reason or gets hurt I think he'd still be in front of the Viking. He's a Sr. and I think they have plenty of room scholarship-wise.

I expect Lenius to grad transfer out and Manu to transfer out. Burleson could transfer out, but if I was him I'd wait until I had my undergraduate degree (don't think football is going to be his career...). Dotson may grad transfer just to get PT...heck I half expect him to head to the Beavs and maybe even move back to RB there.

I'm sure I'm wrong but I'm still kinda surprised on the Eason talk...he just seems like he'd clash with Peterman. But it would be sweet. I assumed Sirmon and Yankoff came in and one would win the backup job and play next year just to stagger their eligibility.

I half expect Scrempos and/or Neal to take medical retirements...they have been hurt most of their time at UW.

I think/hope Rice sticks around...if Potoa'e adds another 10-15 lbs in the offseason I think he'll move inside (esp if Gaines leaves) and Rice competes with Ryan Bowman and Joe Tryon at Buck.

As far as recruiting, I think the staff will start a bunch of 2019 recruiting to get their foot in the door early with the top recruits, and full-court press the couple we are still after (Irving/Martin/Aashari Crosswell(?)/Cravens(?)) after Gordon and Trembly decide.

I basically agree with all of this.

On James, he could grad transfer to be able to play somewhere for a year. Sure, Harris could get hurt. Even then, I'm not sure he'd be our second choice. Again, I don't know for certain.

Feel the same on Sosebee. I'd be a bit surprised, but crazy things happen.

What I do know is this - Huff thinks a lot of those guys suck and should move on. So, I wouldn't be surprised if one or two left.

Croswell has to be a guy we will look at. I think that's a good call.

So - I'm going to hold off really posting about this class until Kyler decides. At this point I have every reason to believe he's coming to Washington, but it's not final until it's on vinyl as they say and it's not on vinyl yet.

One interesting thing going on right now is a discussion of numbers. Especially after Pete's presser yesterday, it sounded a bit like we are expecting some more guys to leave.

At present, if two of our guys enter early (Vita, Gaskin, Greg, Kaleb), we are currently full given that we take Eason and Kyler. However, given what Pete said and our roster, I expect we might add 3-4 more dudes, depending.

Here are our numbers for next year (without Vita and Gaskin; adding in Eason and Gordon) and I'll bold the guys I think are in line for couch sales. I also have listed next to the numbers, the average amount of scholarships per starter (i.e., we have 4 RBs and generally start 1, so that's a 4; I listed WR as 2.5 and TE as 1.5 starters to make it make sense).

QB (6; 6): Browning, DBG, Eason, Haener, Yankoff, Sirmon
RB (4; 4): Ahmed, Pleasant, McGrew, Newton
WR (12; 4.8): Dickey, Baccelia, Fuller, McClatcher, Pounds, Chin, Jones, Bynum, Cook, Lowe, Osborne, Spiker
TE (7; 3.5): Sample, Neal, Bryant, Kizer, Warren (H-Back), Otton, Culp
OT (6; 3): Adams, McGary, Burleson, Hilbers, Kirkland, Mele
OG (6; 3): Sosebee, Roberts, Wattenburg, Bainivalu, Ale, Curne
C (3; 3): James, Harris, Norgy

DT (10; 5): Bowman, Gaines, Johnson, McCoy, Scrempos, Onwuzrike, Bynum, Liu, Taimani, ZTF
BUCK (4; 4): Potoa'e, Rice, Bowman, Tryon
SAM (4; 4): Bartlett, Williams, Ngata, Kaho
MIK (4; 4): Beavers, Manu, Eifler, Sirmon
WIL (3; 3): BBK, Wellington, Tafisi
CB (9; 3): Miller, Dotson, Bryant, Joyner, Murphy, Molden, Taylor, Gordon, Hampton
S (5; 2.5): McIntosh, Rapp, Gilchrist, Love, McKinney

P/K (2): Whitford, Soderberg

That is 85 right there. With 9 guys who could sell couches.

As such, I think it's going to be pretty plain that we have room to play with in January.

So from looking here the scholarship per starters numbers organize like this:
QB - 6
DT - 5
WR - 4.8
OLB - 4
ILB - 3.5
TE - 3.5
CB - 3
OL - 3
S - 2.5

So, where do you think we might look in the Jan period?

One is obvious to me: S.

Outside of that, I could see us trying to add special guys at DT, BUCK, ILB and OL.

Who would be the guys?

S - This is tough. Irvin is the only decent player left and he's going to USC unless there's a miracle.
DT - Again, it's kind of hard to tell right now who we would go after, but if we could get a guy who could play immediately we would.
BUCK - Jeremiah Martin is obviously the big target here. I think he could start next year, basically.
ILB - I think this is a lower priority, but I expect us to push for Tuliaupupu who would not redshirt (Sirmon and Tafisi will).
OL - This is, again, hard to completely tell who we will be after, but it wouldn't surprise me if we got in on someone.

I will be twitter stalking all weekend to try to understand this. Add your thoughts below!

This list is worthless without Eifler.

I'm hearing he's a real disappointment and needs to LEAVE.

I heard your mom has a ginormous hairy wiener.

Some key dates on Skinny...

UGA plays OU on 1/1 - if they win, they play on 1/8

UGA's winter semester starts 1/4, which is a Thursday.
Skinny could easily not show for class those days and still be eligible for a 1/8 game.

UW's winter Q starts 1/3. I doubt Skinny is ready by then, but we shall see.

The KEY date—in my opinion—is 3/26 which is when UW's Spring Q starts.
