    Henry is the bigger get, but Puka might be the bigger impact for our team.

    Disagree

    Turner and Hammer would have me content with the close and pleased with the class overall.

    Those two plus Nacua and I'm thrilled with the close and the class.

    The first two plus Tootoo, no Nacua, and I'd be equally thrilled.

    The first two plus both wildcards and id too stoked to actually admit how stoked I am.

    Pretty much how I feel, but would prefer To’oto’o over Nacua if I had to choose: I’ll take a stellar LB over a stellar WR 90% of the time.
    Assuming Heimuli is in (and I like to do that), To'oto'o would make a seventh linebacker in a single class--five inside. Following a year of four linebackers (counting Ulofoshio, and I also like to do that). And we're not just talking linebackers, we're talking potential-to-dominate linebackers across the board. On the other hand, it would be easy to argue that Nucua would come into the program with a combination of speed, size, and ball skills that nobody on the roster has. Either addition creates a roster balance at the position, at least temporarily, but the four receivers leaving the program in the next year makes the overstaffing at that position a much more temporary situation.

    To'oto'o is a don't-pass-under-any-circumstances player, but I'd have a hard time arguing he'll have a bigger impact than Nacua, current roster considered.

    For class and roster balance prefer an elite WR right now. Puka is elite.
    OTOH, TootToot is elite as well and I honestly think LB is a bigger need right now thanks to all the couch sales (Eifler, Beavers, Kaho, Amandre).

    I love Nacua's film but I felt heading into the year that we only needed one WR in this class. I hope we add him but I don't think WR is a major need. LB is definitely a big time need.

    I'll gladly take either and kill for both but I think I'd take Henry by a nose.

    Probably doogish but I also think beating Bama and UT is more significant than beating Oregon, Utah and SC fwiw.

    Sinceredawg said it for me. I think an impact WR is the bigger need right now. Normally I'd completely agree with you.

    I hear that but I could never hate another organization so completely in all respects like I hate Oregon. It's understandable to lose to Alabama. It's not okay to lose to the Nike corruption flagship.

    Elite skill players are faaaaaaar more available than elite LB’s. As nice as Nuca is his position is way easier to recruit in relative terms.




    Toot toot all day long.

    It's recruiting, who cares? It's not real life, like playing a walk-on against JJ Arcega Whiteside
