I was thinking of Kentrell Love, back to the original point, King would still be recruited by Pete. Finding out he went to O'dowd only weakens the argument that Pete wouldn't.

I don’t know what’s gentrifying faster, the East Bay or Wikipedia 🙄AEB said:Kevin King is from San Leandro, a modest East Bay community south of Oakland, and went to O’Dowd. He was/is a good kid and a legend in SL.

The problem I have is when there is a suggestion that we aren’t recruiting McMillan for a reason tied to race or whatnot ... it’s just dangerous and IMO lazy to use that as a reason
1) We don’t know what the final class looks like and whether he will be in or out
2) If he isn’t at UW, we don’t know where he’s going to end up so let’s see if that materializes
The goal is to compile the best 85 on scholarship as possible ... I don’t honestly care where they come, what their skin color or religion is, how many moms/dads, etc they have. What I care about is that they buy into what Pete is selling and represent the UW well -
Obviously. Again not about not talking about Dontae. Talking about overall strategy for the third time.Tequilla said:The problem I have is when there is a suggestion that we aren’t recruiting McMillan for a reason tied to race or whatnot ... it’s just dangerous and IMO lazy to use that as a reason

We haven’t been recruiting because we’ve had other priorities. Period. We all know that. -
Without question, figuring it out? It's hard. Before recruiting blasts off and away we go, it takes a minute.

But since we’re on the topic, but ummm why did we take Mosiah Nasili-Liu again?Tequilla said:The problem I have is when there is a suggestion that we aren’t recruiting McMillan for a reason tied to race or whatnot ... it’s just dangerous and IMO lazy to use that as a reason

Most likely because we realized he was good and we aren’t exactly killing it in DT recruiting at that point.LaMichael_Corleone said:

He puts in a lot of work, he got that award or whatever for hardest workerLaMichael_Corleone said:

Thank
I doubt LMC disagrees, he’s just referring to the narrative that we only took Liu to start the Poly movement. It’s an interesting theory but I think the simplest explanation is we evaluate better than anybody and realized he was underrated at a time we weren’t hitting on our top guys. His race was a bonus if a factor at all.Neighbor2972 said:
