    Or how about Ruth who stated a few weeks back that she was very confident that Troy was going to be a husky. Bet you she will say that Oregon used negative recruiting against Troy and pressured him to commit.

    Seriously does UW have anything good going on? Or is this program the dead stick it appears to be?
    It's dead. Been saying for the last couple of months, it's going to be a very ugly summer. Just hope there's football in the fall, hope they allow official visits in the fall and that Jimmy doesn't shit the bed in the first four games. That's our last hope to salvage this class.
    Is it fair to lay the majority of the blame on the recruiting, particularly on the offensive side, on the WTF hire of John Donovan and how easy it is to negative recruit against that?
    Some of it yeah but fact is most of these guys can't recruit. Say whatever you want about Mario but the guy knows college football is all about recruiting and he assembled a staff reflecting that.
    But Junior has proven himself to be a good recruiter through 1.5 cycles. The fact that we got blown off by Troy and Emeka even with Sam in the boat leads me to believe it's purely cause of Donovan and his awful track record.

    For Troy, yeah that was a huge factor. I meant in general for all the recruiting misses Washington is having.

    If our offense is decent (30ppg, Sirmon throws for 3000 yards/20 tds) and McMillan or Rome are solid contributors, do you think there's any chance Troy reconsiders?

    Is there a chance sure but I'm not getting my hopes up. I have heard a lot of bad things about this staff from neutral people about how they are recruiting. Jimmy is basically screwed for the next two years if they guys can't coach
