    This is most likely the case. I'm sure Peacock is fine but I would have liked to see them pull out the big dick and go after a bigtime guy rather than just offer a lightly recruited local kid to fill the spot. It will be interesting to see in december if the coaches move on to 2021 and phone in the rest of this class or if they start to get aggressive.
    My Harbor Guys™️ say he’s a freak athlete but yeah I agree.

    No issues at all with taking a late bloomer on the OL with who we have already landed. Assuming all of our current commits enroll, which it sounds like they will.

    Next James Atoe? #lotterypick
    He could be the next Nick Harris but if we? get him, we? are definitely beating out some heavyweights.


    This kid isn't 5'11 like Harris.

    "My hamstring got injured at the Oregon State camp and I wasn't able to do the Washington camp, so I didn't get to work out in front of them," Peacock told Dawgman.com shortly after announcing his decision to become a Husky. "Since I didn't get to take part in their camp, they just watched me, watched my film and they said I showed them enough that they wanted me to be part of the program and so they offered me."

    Peacock took his time to make the decision since he knew he needed to call the Oregon State coaches and let them know of his decision.

    "It wasn't an easy call, but you have to make it," Peacock said. "They weren't happy and I knew it would be a tough call, but you have to do what is right for you and Washington was just the better fit for me.

    "I have so much respect for them and what they are doing down there, but Washington was the right place for me."

    Why was Washington the right place for him?

    "I respect the coaches (at Washington) a ton and I have a good relationship with them," Peacock noted. "They develop guys and make you better and overall I just felt at home there. I know I will fit in well there."

    Washington offensive line coach Scott Huff has been Peacock's main recruiter and he has let the 6'6", 265-pounder know where his head needs to be once he arrives next summer.

    "They see me at tackle," Peacock said. "Either side is fine with me and they didn't really say they saw me playing a particular side. They just want me ready to go and focused once I get there."

    Peacock plans to take his official visit the final weekend before the mid-year signing period begins (December 18th - 20th) and then will sign with the Dawgs three days later.

    In addition to his exploits on the football field, Peacock is also a basketball player and an accomplished track and field.

    "I throw the shot," Peacock noted. "I was state last year. I hit my PR (personal record), 58'11" to win state(3A) and I want to go back and win it again."

    I was hoping we would consider a 5th olineman with some of the recent attrition/misses we've had. I thought it would be Henderson/Rogers/Stephen/Kylany, but I guess its not that surprising we went with Peacock. The oline class is more interior heavy so it makes sense to go after a more prototypical tackle.

    I'm always in favor of taking high upside tackles that have the athleticism but need to add the weight. Huff had plenty of options to go after for the 5th oline spot and he chose Peacock, this isn't settling for an inferior talent.

    Nah it's grear. He just makes a great O line class better.

    He reminds me a bit of Mele.

    He’s a better TE prospect than Overman lmfao.

    Overman is better than West. West is purely a blocker. If he’s not really good there, he’s worthless.

    I dont think we have enough evidence yet for that to be certain. Hilbers and Kirkland have developed pretty well under Huff and Mele has looked solid as a rsFr backup. Wattenberg seems to be improving. Adams has gone backwards but some of that could be injury setbacks and possibly some mental fatigue (the guy was supposed to be one of the top OTs in the draft two years ago and is now still having to hang around).

    Overall, OL play has not been a huge issue for us this year. Next year we'll know a lot more when we have Huff's guys taking over at 3 of the OL spots.
    We have one of the biggest OL in the nation and we still have hard time rolling people over

    Since when has size ever been directly correlated with run blocking? What you gain in length you sacrifice in leverage unless you’re a freak athlete who can play low and still maintain power
    Its almost like people forget point 2 of the original 5 reasons...

    2. Offensive Line - We average a weight of 332 lbs across the line. they are ready to dominate the line of scrimmage. Atoe, Brostek. Dolbec, Dean. Ikehara, Schaefer etc. These boys have the attitude and are ready to rumble.

    @MikeDamone taking the year off from mass poasting 5 reasons is likely the biggest reason for this years letdown.
    Da'bone has never been a team player.

    We haven't done a great job run blocking this year. At times okay but not overall great.

    Size plus athleticism plus mental makeup plus scheme and coaching equals performance.

    Huff has recruited well but jury is still out for his development.

    I don’t know,” he said. “We just operate such a different way, so when it happens to the guys that have been committed to us — why would you be calling those kids? They’ve been committed to us forever. But they do. And they’re sending texts and doing all this stuff just to see if there’s any slight change (of a change of heart), and if there is — look out. I think it’s hard. These are kids. And even the families that are going through this stuff for the first time. But it’s the nature of the beast.”

    Nope. Scholarship. Not sure why we're not offering Levi Rogers if we're gonna take a 5th (6th if you count Mason West) OL

    At least one of the redshirt freshmen will skirt outta town. It’s very possible a true freshman will too. I think we really reached on two guys last year that might simply not have it in them to ever be a decent starter.

    Ale, Kalepo, and Buelow. I really soured on Buelow when someone that watches the games in Hawaii said he was abused all game long. If he’s not good, Hawaii is a long way from home.

    I hope Bain is staying. I know he was in the doghouse but he should be ready to be a starter next year.

    It’s hard to really know, but I doubt they would take 5 this year without attrition.

    Fautana, Kirkland, and Mele are three probably starters. Bain, Curne, and probably Muruao are battling for the last two spots.

    The fact that Bain played the entire game that one of the guys was out in makes me think hes out of the doghouse and us viewed as the next guy up for next year.. Agree on Buelow. He was a total project that was brought in because of his size. If it's clear that he has too far to go in development he might decide to take off. If things do click for him, he could be dominant
