    He's already on campus and at practice right now. You think he's feeling a sense of urgency after Redman's commitment to get that last TE spot? He sure got his ass up here quick after that. He's from Bellevue originally. I'm locking in my crystal ball for UW. I think he commits this weekend or sometime next week. WTE's baby! We're loading up. Can't get enough of them. Redman, Yurosek, and that walk-on Carson Smith who looks like a Pac-12 competitive talent as well. Real hard hat, lunch pale kind of guys who work at Ace Hardware and don't care about any recruiting hype or bullshit. They just commit and go to work and block people into the dirt. Yaaaay white guys!

    This visit has been scheduled since early March, but yes I think it was made very clear to him when he was offered, how many spots they had and how soon they may need an answer.
    Correct, this visit has been in the works for awhile and Redman didn't expedite it, but SACtown is likely correct that it is a reminder to expedite the decision. He's also right about the rest of it.

    No chinside knowledge here at all but I'm guessing his offer isn't committable at this point.

    Actually, it’s Wednesday. He wasn’t supposed to be here til this weekend. I amend my original statement and now back SAC. He expedited his visit.

    It’s well known we’re looking at the possibility of getting 2 TEs and we’ve offered only 2. Why would his offer not be commitable?
    Just guessing he was the Redman backup and that spot is now off the bored. I supposed they could see Redman as the BTE and Eurosex as the WTE, in which case it could be committable.

    Could we possibly Stanford it up and get 3 TE this year?

    We ran a lot of 3 TE sets against Wazzu (including 3 of our 4 TDs) where we had Sample, Otton/Kizer, and Bryant in bunch sets that Gaskin ran behind. Looking at the scholarship distribution, we have 4 on scholarship and 1 committed. If we think Bryant might declare early, we'll be left with Otton, Kizer, Culp, and Redman for 2020.

    Per the Biggins scouting report I threw down earlier, the kid can do anything. BTE could be a nice fit with some bonus blocking.

    He’s definitely BTE. He’s fast and he was listed at 200lbs before his profile was updated. He’d be a good get

    He’s really good. He is dominant at DE too.

    Yeah his DE highlights are awesome, I still like him at TE but it just seems like his athleticism is easier to see at DE.

    Apparently UCLA & Notre Dame are recruiting him at DE, Stanford & UW at TE.

    Based on track record I'm going to lean towards the udub and TE combo being a more fiscally responsible decision.

    Guess that means he'll be a golden domer.

    He almost looks like a younger tate martell... such queerly defined cheekbones. I'd make him my bitch in prison.

    He looks like he weighs about 150 pounds in that picture
    If we're bashing guys that weigh around 150 lbs, I'm outta here!

    I don’t know why all the WTF’s... I like the kid, like I like him like him. Like I’m going to send him a note with a question and then ask him to check yes or no. Geez guys.

    Prison rape fantasies about teenage boys are perfectly inbounds. But it really chafes my ass when people start complaining about their WTFs.

    UW made his top 4: UW, UCLA, Stanford, Notre Dame

    I guess he cares about academics

    Kole Taylor has to be our top target for the 2nd TE spot and he seems pretty interested sooo...

    I think we're recruiting Yurosek as a Buck now...

    Our OLB class is gonna be Ben Yurosek and Cooper McDonald because Kwat. Buckle up.
