    Huh, a close friend is named Navarrette and has family in Norco. I wonder if there's any relation.

    What in the actual fuck is going on? Does this kid have parents? He's literally committing to whoever he most recently visited. So impressionable. So misguided. So easily conned by salesman selling him the moon. "Lifelong dream of balling out for Coach Cristobal". He's only been there a couple years kid and he hasn't done jack shit to warrant a talent like you even considering playing for him. What the fuck are you doing with your life? Some of these kids are so fucking dumb. How do they not see through Oregon's bullshit and buffoonery and look for shit that actually matters like education, winning, and NFL development. Some elite prospects are genuinely excited about the possibility of playing for and being coached by that clown show down there. What is wrong with that generation? I was not that dumb and superficial when I was that age. Not even close.

    And fuck Chris Petersen. This is bullshit. Why can't we be about both substance AND excitement in recruiting? Why does it have to be one or the other? It's fucking stupid. Why are we the only top-25 program in the nation that doesn't do a Spring game or have big recruiting weekends with a shit load of recruits on campus? We would destroy in recruiting if we mixed the Built for Life shit with some big recruiting events like a big Spring game recruiting weekend or recruiting BBQ. The fact that we're not adapting with the times just seems fucking pompous and like Petersen cares more about doing it his way than doing what fucking works and brings in the best possible talent. It's not YOUR fucking program asshole. The program belongs to us fans and everyone who supports it and we want a fucking Spring game and fast twitch black kids who can rush the fucking passer and we don't care what you have to do to get them. Just get them on the goddamn roster and the team culture will do the rest.

    Uh maybe Petersen doesn't do a big Spring game event because our shitty fans don't support it. How bad a look is it when 9,000 people show up in a 70,000 stadium? I think Petersen really needs to up his recruiting technique but lets face facts. Our fans don't remotely compare to real football hotbeds. Shit, the fucking Ducks probably draw more for there Spring game than the rest of the Pac 12 combined.

    SAC - he’s being coached directly by Avalos at the stud spot. Just like UW will get theirs at DB, Avalos will get OLBs. That’s the DC’s baby.

    Who? Avalos is some nobody who has done nothing. Jimmy Lake's one of the best DB coaches in the country. Doesn't equate at all. At least Pete Kwiatkowski coached Demarcus Lawrence and Hau'oli Kikaha and is one of the best and most proven DC's in the country as well. #1 defense in the conference past four years in a row. Most draft picks in the conference since Petersen's arrival. Kid needs to do his research.

    That’s not my point. The defensive philosophy highlights the OLB vs Lake with safety/nickel.

    38, 26, 29, 22, 16, 16. Petersen HAS upped his recruiting technique. Just because whatever he's doing is not visible to peons like ourselves does not mean it isn't happening.

    That being said, there are some aspects that still need tweaking in order to land top-flight out of state recruits. I'm not sure a Spring Game is that tweak, but maybe spice up that weekend in other ways. I totally understand Petersen's view on potential Spring Game injuries. Just think about how mad you would be if Adams, Harris, Levi, Ahmed, Taylor, etc got hurt in a Spring Game. Might make ya think twice. I don't care that other programs do it. They're all dumb. Pete thinks he's smarter than everyone else because he is.
    You practice scared, you play scared. Football players need to play football. Otherwise, you have a shrivel dick team that plays scared which we do. We have a shit load of guys on this team who haven't played real college football yet that we will need to rely on this season. There's massive value in having those guys play in a live college football type scrimmage, in front of fans, in the big stadium, prior to the season so they can get acclimated to college football and it doesn't feel so daunting to them and bigger than it really is when the season rolls around.

    This team plays tight. They play with a high anxiety level of not wanting to make mistakes. A live Spring game would help alleviate that anxiety and build team confidence. The risk of injuries is so fucking minimal. You almost never hear about key players at big name programs getting injured playing in their Spring game. Guys can get injured in non-contact drills in practice or playing pick up basketball in the off season. Decisions can never be made based on being afraid of injuries. It's football. Guys are gonna get injured no matter what. Plus, they already limit the live hitting now-a-days in practice more than ever before. The benefits in team psychology, confidence building, and recruiting outweigh the risk of injuries.
    Ohio State doesn't tackle in their Spring Game. TCU cancelled theirs. Stanford curtailed theirs. LSU lost an RT to a leg injury in theirs.

    A full-blown Spring Game is not the answer to all our on-field deficiencies like you say it is. It's an event for the fans. If not having a Spring Game is what makes us a shrivel dick team, we have big problems. Hint: It's not.

    Guess that’s why I keep seeing all those big-time Oregon OLBs in the NFL draft...

    How the fuck would you know? You don't. The majority of the college football world agrees with me. You're taking the side of the minority. Let me know when Bama, Clemson, and Georgia stop doing their Spring games. The teams that are winning aren't scared to play real football in the Spring and they see the value in it. How many more years of watching this team look like a bunch of pussies in their bowl games do you need before you say "maybe they need to switch things up" or "maybe Chris Petersen needs to stop being a stubborn asshole and do what the successful teams are doing because it seems to work for them."

    We do have a Spring game. It's just usully played in late August or early September. This year I think we have invited Eastern in to participate with us.
    Except they've almost beaten us multiple times in recent years. Not so much a scrimmage when they have nothing to lose and come out with a chip on their shoulder while our pussy ass team comes out flat with a bunch of young guys super nervous to be playing real minutes for the first time.
