Outsider’s Thoughts on Junior Adams

Q: What have you heard about UW's new receiver coach, Junior Adams, from a recruiting perspective? Why do you think Lubick had such troubles with guys like Ford, Ngata, etc? How does Adams stack up against some of the other receiver coaches in the pac12 on the recruiting side?


Huffman: A lot of high praise for Junior from his time at Boise State. He's well thought of and well respected in the Northwest. A lot of personality, which is what I think ultimately slowed Lubick, not much of one there. Recruiting wise, I think Adams can be in the top half, but he's mostly been recruiting to Group of 5 schools so it's different animal now.




This isn’t the WAC anymore poast of the day.

Major LOLOLOLOL at the Lubick lack of personality comment which is the main reason I posted this.

    Great stuff from @DoogCourics per usual.



    But let’s not act like Junior Adams is bubbling over with eccentric values or whatever. Try to watch his interviews without falling asleep. He’s recruited 2 people before. 2. Now we’re in on 2 out of the top 5 WR’s in the country. Someone hold me during this dark time.

    It’s not like Ikaika is impressive during interviews, but he fucks on jimmy lake level
    Ikaika doesn’t look stoned in all of his interviews either. Of course I want him to and expect him to get the job done and fucking close but when people’s only defense for him as a recruiter is “well Joey Thomas likes him”, we should all be a little worried.

    When one of the greatest coaches of all time and a true molder of men has your back, that's good enough for me.
    Same guy that hired Pease? Paopao? Lubick?

    Personality matters in sales? Who knew? It is rarely brought up here

    I'm an introvert. I'm shy. And I'm an asshole. But when the lights come on I can get you to sign for anything

    Being a sociopath has its advantages

    Deadly in any sector. Not enough chins to throw your way.

    Assholes win.

    Wasn't Lubick regarded as a great a recruiter until he wasn't?

    I think our duck friends warned us about him. I seem to recall that he looked good there at first too, then disappeared. I'm paraphrasing from memory here so don't expect any semblance of accuracy, but much of what they said seems to have come true. He's a capable coach and recruiter but doesn't work hard.

    The consensus was he could coach wr’s and recruit but they hated him as OC.

    He recruited very well when he got started here. He definitely had it in him. For some reason he just kind of quit.

    As far as UW is concerned he’s the Bizzarro Malloe.
