Ditto. To me this screams Gaard. Huff saw a kid who hasn’t played the camp circuit and jumped all over it before anyone else could. Then as Gaard got offers from all the PAC and the Big 12 and some SEC, he told his coaches to not even tell him because he didn’t care.dnc said:
They obviously think he’s going to blow up and want to beat the rush.insinceredawg said:This year's Sam Peacock. The question is, why are we taking this kid's commitment in April instead of December?

I understand everyone is stuck sheltering in place with their giant wives, 4 kids, 1 neice, and 1 nephew and wants to end their life so we need something positive to cling to but the optimism here is uncharacteristically doogish and I won’t stand for it.

I went to high school with a kid that didn’t play until his senior but as soon as pac 12 coaches saw his senior film while scouting other underclassmen players they all shit their pants and wanted to talk to him. Point is he was like 6-7 255 but by the way he moved they all projected as a potential high end tackle but he had already signed with a lower division school. He went on to make millions in the nfl. I know csb.
I don’t mind athletic reaches on the OL or buck position as long as they are not all reaches as it is a very specific rare body type for those spots.
That being said since this is uw i am sure that he will suck and Ballz will love his film and proclaim James atoe 2.0 -
Maybe I’m reading too much into it, but anyone else find it discouraging the only reason we found this guy is cuz he tweeted his tape at our staff (along with a bunch of others if you look at his tweet history)?Domicillo said:

Wyrsch...
And I ain’t buying he’s 6’7
It’d be one thing if we sought him out but seems like we just said hey this guy looks okay let’s give him a call and Bam! Offer and commit. -
No. This is the type of kid who would’ve been evaluated at camps this spring. With none of that happening the late bloomer recruits are going to have to get their name out some other wayMiley_Cyrus said:

He went through a massive growth spurt and is still getting his legs. His technique is atrocious but he's clearly athletic, a guy after a redshirt year you can dream on. As long as the HS's play this fall, the TBS's will go gaga for his senior tape.
I never trust the coaches but I trust Huff. Maybe the most dynamic recruiter on staff, Huff signed arguably the two best OL out west last year (Murano and Rosengarten) plus Hatchett and Gaard. Taking a commitment from an unknown this early signals Huff has uncovered a gem.
The three best OL --McGary, Harris, and Kirkland-- the program has signed and developed were TBS rejects or, in McGary's case, a raw converted DL. So there's that, too. -

Me too. An almost --but not quite -- Gainseyesque emptiness came over me when he LEFTGrundleStiltzkin said:I miss Nick already

At the end of the day the drop between this kid and Someone like Persi in the 2020 class isn’t that vast.
