    We? offered Gabers to get to Redman, right? Basically waisting a QB slot...So PP still has training wheels on until he lands Moliki IMHO...

    Pete won't offer Gee Scott Jr to get Sam Adams, Ayden Hector and JT Tui but he's offering Garbers to get Redman?

    Fuck outta here.
    If you whiff on TE for the 19 cycle...yup

    Some of you just don’t get it with BBK

    Dude MASSIVELY improved from his junior to senior year and had a knack for making plays

    That being said, if you watched the film closely you’d still see some of the things Dennis has talked about showing up.

    It’s not about BBK being an excellent P12 LB ... he was DPOY for a reason

    The point as it is and will be for every player is how does that player compare and help us beat the Bama’s, Clemson’s, etc

    I don’t know if Wellington will slide in seamlessly ... the fact it is being suggested is a bit telling to me

    The reality is that the leveling up in LB is the guys we got in the 2019 class with the 2018 class on the whole being about a half step behind that.

    IMO, I’m not sure that BBK or Wellington would have been part of the 2019 class if they were HS players

    Our biggest recruiter for Matavao is Justin Tuitele. That Poly patriarchial influence supersedes everything. Matavao dad and Tuitele don’t fuck around and won’t let their boys make a senseless decision.

    All I want is a BBK replacement that plays as well or better ... but at 2 inches taller and 25-30 lbs heavier, naturally.

    Couple with our levelling up in our defensive line/edge play and we're fucking rolling!

    Danny Hammer? Botelho? Ah You? Calvert? Tuputala? ....

    Wellington has the physical tools but has always struggled a bit with size which has led him to injuries

    Who would Wellington have been taken over in the 2019 class? I’m interested in names.

    It's not a matter of who we would have taken him over, he committed a year or more before signing day. He likely would have been our 1st commit in the 2019 class as well
