Thank you! for taking questions ... I just wanna know this one thing:

In your opinion ... Do ka-razy fansites like HH make an appreciable negative or positive difference in recruiting in the minds/eyes of recruits? Their families? Their coaches?

Especially in this day and age of twitter/IG ...

Or are we just a bunch of internet nutjobs that really are only on the periphery of recruiting?

(sub question: do you find Ruth attractive in a homely librarian/social worker kind of way? - thanks, and i'll take your answer off the air lol ...)

Yes this site hurts recruiting and is a pain for the coaches to deal with. A lot of family members visit this site.

What about this site scares the families? They don't see this place as a reflection of a fervent, impassioned fanbase?

okay, here's the other hot topic:

do you think the effort to recruit Texas is worth it?

or a waste of time?

Or not just yet? (like win a big game against a big opponent first to gain legitimacy ...)

I know this might be tough... but can you give an actual example even if vague?

Also, why post here then?

When kids legitimately choose Oregon over UW, as you said was the case with Wilson, what's the main determining factor? In other words, what key point makes the difference?

Worth it. Recruiting it mostly texting and face time so it doesn't take up a lot of resources. UW is getting very aggressive in Texas as you can see right now.

Recruiting Style. Some recruits prefer the jerseys and the nike flash over built for life. Also some recruits prefer the aggressive recruiting style over the laid back one.

Did Jake Shipley have a committable offer?

Is there a bigger recruiting steal than HH stealing long time dawgman commit @sonics1993??



That's a facetious question, the answer is obviously no.

(a) volume of the coffee cup
(b) cool uniforms and a throne to take pictures on
(c) coaches willing to flex and scream, in unison, in the same room, led by a moustachioed guy who kinda looks like Bill the Butcher from Gangs of New York ...
