UCLA and Louisville as well. Listed at 21 offers, but who knows how accurate 247 keeping that section.

Did he actually walkon over utah? Or did we just give him a scholarship last minute when we whiffed on everyone?

Wow. To turn down UCLA and Utah to pay for your own school and go to UW where in the last two years they have signed Sirmon, Tafisi, Heimuli, Calvert, Ah You, and Tuputala.

That takes stones. And this kid is good. Great pick up.

Kid clearly shits gold and pisses purple. Love it.

For the "we only want guys who want to be Dawgs" crowd on Doogman and Doogpound, this is your guy!

Sounds like he's at least going to get paid for hosting all the future PWO visits

The success of the walk-on program will only continue to feed itself. When kids can look at the current roster and see a handful of guys who earned scholarships and heavy playing time after being a PWO, it only helps the argument that they can forego a scholarship at another school for one year with the goal of earning one as a PWO at UW.

We should be stoked about this. We don't need to compare him to Tootoo. He's not taking a scholly spot. There is no downside to this. Fowler is a legit 3* with offers from UCLA, Utah, Oregon State, and Louisville and we fucking got him to walk on. Utah wanted him as the next Chase Hansen. Fuck, I'll take one Chase Hansen, please. Pour it stiff. Fowler will be 6'2 230-235 by the time he hits the field. I'm underrated fired up about this.

is it a confirmed PWO spot?

By Doogman yes, so probably not. Maybe they gave him To'oto'o's scholarship. Either way I love the pickup.

Our walk on program is the tits. Not going to doog about it though when our bagman program sucks.

This is so important to have a great level of depth in the program particularly in PWOs ...

We liked to talk about how shitty special teams were this year ... well a large part of it was because we had terrible numbers at LB and in the secondary ... an area where a lot of your ST players come from.

This kind of added depth pays dividends in so many ways.

If you view the kind of talent that we brought in this year as being guys that are 3-4 year players and then you have a guy like Fowler that is almost assuredly a 5 year player then you are setting the foundation of having a guy that will contribute in his first couple of years on special teams and then a rotational and/or starter his last 1-2 years depending on development.

The reality is that we've shown that if you're able to play, we don't give a crap if you are on or off scholarship. You're good to go.

"I appreciated all of the opportunities from the other schools, but I believe in destiny and when you have Washington there with all of the great coaches and their program is on a trajectory toward greatness, I just wanted to be part of that. I grew up as a season ticket holder and I have so many connections there, I just knew it was where I wanted to be."

FireCohen

Really impressed with bob in recruiting side this year. Still want him fired from the ST coaching

Kid reminds me of John Fiala.
