Seems like a pretty even spilt on Lake. DC = retention and elevated to top defensive recruiter.
Jimmy doesn’t whiff. -

Yeah, Legg has a bigger frame too. We should just offer Legg and get it over with. It's not like we couldn't deal with having a Liu-level OLB guy in a class.NorwegianHusky said:He's a little more quick-twitch than Justus Legg, but he's still kind of meh. Let's hope he has a similar improvement in his senior season as Dom Hampton, since this is probably the only buck we have a legit shot with that we've offered so far.
If we offer him and get him in the boat early, we can swing away on all the guys we won't get like Jeremiah Martin and this time when A&M pays whomever we want'smomBARBERat the last minute we will actually have a player to put out at OLB rather than a walk-on. -
I am proud of our optimism, but it is not at all clear to me we will be able to convert on BUCKs. The #1 factor in recruiting is a position coach's influence. Unless Jimmy starts to coach BUCKs, I think we could easily see a situation in which we get a lot of people on the hook, but ultimately our Jimmy-hand-off-to-Kwat strategy goes well up front, but fails on key guys.DawgFader said:Seems like a pretty even spilt on Lake.

It's an empirical question and I'm interested in whether it's going to work or not. I just don't think it's the same situation as him recruiting his own position. -
Agree on this 100%.Dennis_DeYoung said:

That being said, we've seen Pete (the HC not the former DC) have some success closing kids that their position coaches were never going to close (Sirmon/Morris at QB, Kaho at OLB). Perhaps Lake can keep us in the running at BUCK and the Pete/Lake combo can close them without a ton of assistance from Kwat. That's my hope anyway.
But there's no reason to be confident in that strategy yet, it's definitely a risk. -
If Jimmy is a Power 5 HC canandite in a few years. Part of that is being able to connect with all potential recruits and close.Dennis_DeYoung said:

Naw fuck that all ya low expectations bitches. No balls is getting paid 7 figures now the DC of a legit top 10 team. His ass better get us some fast twitch bucks. No excuses, his family gets to stay in Seattle and he is flushed with cash. I want some big, fast, and black bucks.
