    Banks is the final key that unlocks the Smalls treasure chest for UW. That's someone Smalls can click with and be close friends with during his time at UW. An Azeem + Keishawn kind of brotherhood except with Banks in the middle and Smalls on the edge.

    Why is this? Have they even met each other? They're both high priority defensive recruits for the Huskies, but what else do they have in common?
    They each get to decide whether btp keeps a full complement of fingers.
    @FourFingeredFudgieDawg, true??!1!?

    It's the same thing with Poly recruiting.

    Same thing when McGary was worried about there not being a lot of "guys like me" on the team when he was being recruited by UW and almost chose Nebraska over us.

    Guys wanna feel like there will be other guys on the team they can relate to culturally and easily be friends with. We want all the guys on the team to be friendly with each other for that family feel but the reality is a guy like Savell is not likely to be best friends off the field with a guy like Kaleb McGary. People naturally gravitate towards other people who have a shared culture and interests. McGary had Boomer as his best bud to go hunting and do white guy shit with. Azeem had Keishawn. Now Tuli and Taki are known by the team as "the twins". If we hadn't gotten Taki we probably wouldn't have been able to flip Tuli. I think we need to get Banks and for him to help peer recruit Smalls.
    So my hunch was correct. Roger...
