I’ll need to see UW diplomas

Yeah, we're not getting Fowler if this is an actual offer. -
obviously Pete tried to hide all his diamonds in the rough until the final weekend and now the programs who have spots are going to throw offers at our late visitors. Taken as a huge compliment obviously, but kind of sucks...except in the case of USC where it's LOL that they are throwing the offer to our visitor while he's on his visit to UW and they've probably never talked to him before.

Pretty sure it’s a PWO, otherwise it’d say “blessed and honored to receive a scholarship”BlastDoor said:

"I mainly met with coach Harris, but coach Lake came in and talked to me too, and they both said they saw me as a player with a lot of potential and room to grow," Powell, who measured in at 6'1" and weighed in at 200 pounds on his visit, noted. "They see me starting out at corner and then we'll see. They like their corners to be longer and they feel like I'd be a great fit outside.
"They actually said I was a year too early in the recruiting process. They told me if I was a 2020 guy, that I'd have an offer, so they definitely showed me a path to getting a scholarship, but they aren't just going to hand it to you, you have to earn it.
"That's something the players said when I was talking to them. The coaches expect you to work hard and bring it every day, not only in games, but also in practice and even when you're not practicing. The expectation is that you give your all to everything you do and that's something I really liked hearing. The best players play, no matter whether you have a scholarship or if you're a walk-on."
His visit to Montlake completed, Powell said he's got some thinking to do and with offers from Air Force, Columbia, Cornell, Eastern Washington, Georgetown and Yale he has some great options to mull over.
"There's a lot to consider -- education, location, my opportunity to play -- so I have some thinking to do," Powell said. "It's an exciting opportunity there at Washington and they have a top 15 business school which is what I want to major in.
"The Ivy League schools always tout their academics and they should, they are pretty amazing, but Washington's academics are great too and their business school is even better than most of the Ivy League schools', so that was something that was pretty impressive when we were going through the presentation."
As a senior last season, Powell totaled 61 tackles and five interceptions while helping to lead the Irish to an 11-2 record.
We'll have more from Powell in the coming days as he nears making his decision and we will update news on him as it breaks.
