I could be wrong, but I think Kim's asking for screen shots to be taken today

I thought you were the real Tequila? You have not been acting like the Tequila I have come to know. Or maybe he has 2 opposite personalities, one that loves Kim and one that doesn't.

The best class at UW in the last 10 years was recruited by TY

Just to give us something to discuss, I dug up the Scout rankings nationally for the UW since 2002. I used Scout, since for some odd reason Rivals did not show UW for 2014. There are some differences, but I used Scout for this exercise just because it had complete info.

You can check yourself. I list he results below, and show the head coach in place for each recruiting class.

Its interesting to go back and look at that 2010 class (Sark's opus). The 4 star guys who made that class so highly ranked were Hatchie, Porter, Kohler, Shirley, Montana, Potoae, Cooper, Chris Young, Sean Parker, and Kevin Smith.

Of all those, Sean Parker is the only one who I would say had a great career at UW. Smith had one outstanding year and would be a huge weapon next year if Sark would have used one of the multiple redshirt opportunities that Smith had.

In that entire class (of 31 players) only Kikaha, Tanigawa, Timu, and Riva have been pleasant surprises.

Here are some other names from that group:
Darius Waters
Zach Fogerson
Brent Williams
Taz Stevenson
Victor Burnett
Cooper Pulleur
Lawrence Lagafuaina


The rest are guys like Hartvigson and Jamaal Kearse who had a few days in the sun early on but then got passed up

Do yeah, our best class in the last 12 years was actually pretty shitty

Given the ranking at the time and what materialized I'd give the nod to 2008 as the best class. That class produced Kearse, Polk, Kelemete, Ta'amu, as well as Justin Glenn and even though he was kind of a bust Middleton was pretty decent for two years.

I look forward to Petersen having more rounded classes as he'll coach up his kids. So you won't have like 1/3 of a class give you absolutely nothing.

Even though his Ranking was 3 spots higher than the 2008 class, the 2008 class produced at a much higher clip and has seen several members move on to successful nfl careers thus far.

I think 2011 is the best class, at least at the top. Sankey, Kasen, Shelton, ASJ, Peters, Charles, Feeney. It's not the deepest class, but all of those guys except possibly Feeney are NFL players.

Anyways can't believe we all took this long to point out but this thread is stupid.

As we all know Sark doesn't deal with hypotheticals.
