Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Theres a 247 article about Asa Turner's commitment. Asa talks about how he was going back and forth and finally Jimmy Lake paid him a visit, didnt feed him any bullshit but just said, "You need to man up and make a decision. We need to move on to other guys if you're not in." After that Asa's decision was made.

Theres a 247 article about Sa'vell Smalls' commitment.

That was my take all along. Things change. Make a decision. He visited both schools. Listened to their individual pitches. He liked UW because of Jimmy then said he doubted Washington—as if they, Jimmy, lied to him—because ND told him he was a LB.
Smalls has also said in the past that he realizes that going to Oregon will also not put him in good graces in Seattle ... so he’s never going there ... but they are in the mix purely to try to sabotage UW ... so they say some shit that obviously isn’t true and it’s able to be turned into the “out” that Smalls needs to cool off #HometownHero while having a narrative behind it that at least some will buy in Seattle
That’s my working theory because the existing narrative makes absolutely no sense
