The purple chrome helmets are now making sense.Tequilla said:
It’s why as a UW fan I see such an opportunity in DFWTacoSoup said:
TCU recruiting is a whole other thing. If I was a TCU fan, I’d be bewilderedTequilla said:
Generally speaking we will always do better in Texas north in DFW and potentially a bit of NE Texas compared to further South.TacoSoup said:
Earnestly though, we know regions of Texas produce a (general) type of player.EsophagealFeces said:

You don’t know shit about Texas geography if you think he’s from fucking middle of nowhere Texasbackthepack said:
Yes, he sucks. Fucking duh. It’s literally a 6 foot roided up kid from the middle of nowhere texas that plays OLB.PostGameOrangeSlices said:
You watched his film and think he sucks? Jesus. Ill leave it up to the resident 19 year old from now on!backthepack said:PostGameOrangeSlices said:
Okay bro. Your joke about me not using the word dominating correctly is really funny, and also made me reconsider my eval. He definitely isnt putting the hit stick on kids, getting sacks, forcing turnovers, getting ints, and housing a shit ton of turnovers. Instead, this is what I see.LaMichael_Corleone said:
Whoa there, Ruth.PostGameOrangeSlices said:So im bored and watched the first 3 min of his highlights. If that is a competitive league he is in, he is a good player. The Tevis comparison is a softball one. Tevis was playing 8 man shit in Wyoming, dominating 5A and 6A Texas teams like that is like a highschool to D1 jump.
Not a flashy commit but seems to be a good player. Physical.
Cooper is just a scrappy kid out there trying his hardest. Real lunch pail guy who makes up for his lack of natural ability by living in the weight room and doing compound lifts 3 times a day. He is the kind of kid the high school coach would let fuck his daughter. Kwat and Cooper bonded over their love of duck hunting and a tin of Copenhagen. Probably belongs at Portland State or EWU.
Just admit that you love a real scrappy white kid that plays hard and makes plays at the HS level because he’s playing against a bunch of fat retards.
Fucking doog. He sucks hth.
That just runs to the QB and goes airborne (2 ft off the ground) on every move. He’ll get eaten alive in college.
JUST FUCKING CLOSE BOHTELO AND HERBIG YOU STUPID FUCK BOB GREGORY.
But seriously tho.
Coop is a DFW kid. If we go into Texas, this always the region I think we will hit the hardest outside of WR/DB (Which would be Houston EDIT LOL aTm LSU Bama)
For whatever reason, TCU hasn’t been able to resonate enough in DFW to steadily close up those next tier guys after the elite level
TCU isn’t considered a real option by kids wanting to compete at the elite level. If you aren’t an Oklahoma/Texas kid then who’s recruiting you that you feel like you can compete at high levels? Arkansas? Okie Lite?
TCU will continue to get the 3rd best classes in the Big 12 because they win just enough 2nd tier Texas/Louisiana talent and combine that with talent evaluation and development
TCU is a great reminder that there’s talent all over and there’s a lot of different ways to create high end P5 programs -
Oh god let’s talk about Texas one more time
My name is fucking LoneStarDawg and I’m sick of this shit
DFW north of I30 is white people country. Anything on 35W is middle of nowhere even fucking downtown fort worth.
Petersen can probably find decent culture fit in overlooked recruits in Texas. But OK, Texas, aTm, LSU, etc etc are going to get anyone decent who doesn’t want to move fucking away.
Not worth the effort when we’ve got the whole west coast sucking our choad. If we’re serious we should be doing a ton of H&H with big12 teams, but it’s a long fucking road and never worth the investment. -
The ridiculous idea that “investment” in Texas is such a massive resource suck relative to value that it hurts our efforts in Cali etc is one of my favorite lemming narratives here.LoneStarDawg said:Oh god let’s talk about Texas one more time

It's a few visits a year for like 3 of the coaches. I'm not sure where this zero-sum idea originated. Probably Dennis.NLdawg said:

Styx sucks
Edit I’m hungover and don’t know why this is block quoted.
The “anti” TX thing falls back on opportunity. The evaluation period and shit is a finite time. If we? spend that time in freaking DFW, we are missing out on LA, San Bernardino, San Diego, etc
EDIT sorry if this obvious. Again, I’m terribly hungover -
Or I lived in DFW for 10 years and know how zero people know anything about UW or even the pac-12. Nor have interest in learning about it. It’s easier to just kick a down USC and a down UCLA ass right now.

Except it's not a short term strategy. They are playing the long term game in Texas.LoneStarDawg said:Or I lived in DFW for 10 years and know how zero people know anything about UW or even the pac-12.

I don’t love recruiting Texas, but Pete said they want a couple players each year from Texas, which they are doing. It’s not a big deal.
-
We should 'recruit' Texas, we just should be smart about who we recruit and how much. The problem is half our staff are not great recruiters and I don't really trust them to be smart about it.
-
If we want to level-up, we should be in Texas.
And given that Texas operates at a different pace than the Pacific states, these battles are usually over by the spring when we know whether they're interested or not. Might be why we were late with local offers during this spring cycle, but the coaching staff will adapt.
