What does that mean established ground? What ground have we established?CallMeBigErn said:
We hadn't established ground in Texas 5 years ago and we weren't established as a good program 5 years ago.FremontTroll said:
Sounds great in theory but we had the same theoretical discussion 5 years ago. Since then we've signed 4 guys total out of Texas. Its been a waste of fucking time.Tequilla said:Recruiting Texas is a necessary strategy for UW going forward
It should never be viewed as s primary source but it will be needed to get 3-5 guys per year at its peak
If we need Texas then we need to go all out not this half assed tossing out of offers to kids we've barely talked to and that have 10 other offers anyway. Hire coaches with actual local recruiting ties. At least one for Houston area and at least one for Dallas area.
We actually had two coaches with ties to Texas originally so it actually made more sense. -
The flaws aren't that we are recruiting Texas, Louisiana, Florida, Virginia or any other place that we don't usually draw kids. Flaw number 1 is that our staff spends 80% of their recruiting time evaluating rather than communicating with kids. Flaw number 2 is the recruiting message is more suited to selling parents than 18 year old kids. Those are two major, major impediments that keep you from being a Top 10 recruiter and keeps you from being a serious competitor for a championship.

Your Flaw #1: Making up random ass numbers.whuggy said:The flaws aren't that we are recruiting Texas, Louisiana, Florida, Virginia or any other place that we don't usually draw kids.

Your Flaw #2: Not knowing what the fuck you are talking about, but pretending you do.
These could probably be grouped together as one flaw, so I apologize if I made it seem like you have more flaws than you actually do. -
UW beat Michigan for Levi. Not Baylor.FremontTroll said:
Levi was between us and Baylor. He wasn't recruited by Texas, A&M, Oklahoma, LSU.FirePete said:
Vic and Levi say fuck youPenace said:We will never beat Texas, A&M, Oklahomo, LSU or any other worth a shit southwest program for recruits. Furthermore we are never going to build any meaningful relationship with HS programs in TX. The truth is to a Texan this place is shit and we are all fags.
One of the reasons I love Husky football is because we have always had great success with local/ regional kids. I enjoy rooting for kids from WA and CA. I dont give a fuck about Texas and the feeling is mutual.
Curne was under the radar when he committed to us. He did get some of those big offers but not until after Huff locked him up. -
Those were the final 3 but the original point was that we couldn't beat the local powerhouses like Texas, Oklahoma, A&M then WAC chimed in with Levi says fuck you.pat_hm said:

Baylor was the only Texas or SEC school involved. -
400K people a year are moving to Texas for predominantly white collar jobs, cant imagine their kids are excited to be there. But I’d also think they’d rather be at other pac-12 schools if they wanted to be back west. Petersen has a culture fit to north Texas burbs, but we’d have to be a consistent playoff team to cash in on it. It’s easier to just focus that energy on California.

Love this perspective?fact
Caveat- consistent playoff team.
“Easier to just focus that energy on California.” 👏 -

TCU has never fully capitalized at getting a foothold in the region ... it’s really Oklahoma’s territory and then a free for all after that. -
(He tweeted all his offers, but still)
