    Huffman has taken a love to shit talking UW recruits so grain of salt. Nevertheless, this assessment. doesnt fill me with joy

    Very raw but shows some flashes.

    The one thing to note, Heims played JV football last year. He hasn't played a snap of varsity football yet for Santa Margarita, so all of his film is against JV teams and I wouldn't say he was quite dominant either.

    Because he's originally from Germany and had moved to the US, by the time he got settled at Santa Margarita, he was not allowed to play varsity last fall.

    A lot of upside there, was up and down at the Under Armour Camp. Would get by an OL, then lose the rep because he'd go back to his blocker to engage, almost like he thought he had to be blocked. Didn't test particularly well, but impressive looking on the hoof.

    This next year will tell a lot about his ability long term, since it will be his first against varsity competition"

    Im not the type to "trust the coaches" but in this case.... trust huffman or coach K???
    He’s gonna play DL not OLB
    Disagree he’ll do both.
    He doesn’t have the movement skills of Tryon. He should be a DL. He’s not as athletic as Latu either.

    Looks like Jimmy is continuing to ‘DOMINATE’ the Pac-12 in recruiting, just like he said he would. The rest of the conference coaches are on notice.

    If you ever wonder why you bat ~.500 on predictions there's the answer. Maybe hitting one right on makes you blurt out another just to try and recapture that high? Like a TBS junkie lol

    Lake, the army brat, grew up in Germany, didn’t he? He probably sprechenseed some deutche to the guy and reeled him in blitzkrieg style.

    We need to corner the German recruiting market!

    Heims is twitchy and has an edge body but he’s going to play at like 270. Our fronts are so versatile and he’s got the juice/frame to do both. His arms are super long too. I like him a lot.

    @backthepack I'm intrigued as well, but I don't see any OLB for that guy. Especially when he's still figuring out the game. The less reads he has to make the faster he can get out there and help.

    Coach K is recruiting him as a Buck
    Fucking duh. He’s big, twitchy, and athletic.

    He doesn’t need to play early. Our OLB/DL room is loaded for quite awhile.

    What are your thoughts on him @sonics1993 ? I really dont like the "major upside but right now hes struggling at jv football" angle. Reminds me of what they said about Devin Burleson
