    It’s not a bad thing if we are able to get elite kids from home ... that’s good for us

    Some of you just complain to complain

    Good player. I call bullshit on 5-11 though.

    Still early, but these are just good players, not elite players. None of them have an offer better than UW (yet). And KB is perfectly happy not working for a good player, than working hard for a great player.

    And it probably won't matter because elite RBs are just a luxury, but its just a reflection of the state of our recruiting.

    I bet Brown will be pretty close to elite. We haven’t offered many in state freshman who didn’t turn out to be elite.

    Depressing to see a kid fall under the spell of White Power at such a young age.

    When we offer in-state local players we bitch if they are good but not great

    When we don’t offer good but not great players early enough and/or string them along, we bitch because the staff clearly fucked up

    I’d buy your point if we were bringing in elite players all over the place from elsewhere

    But if we’re getting in-state 4 stars that are good fits for our program ... why are we complaining? The fence right? The FENCE
    It's great we are offering them now, it's bad that KB will make no effort to recruit anyone else
    I’m far from a great fan of KB

    But let’s be clear here ... no matter what KB did you’d find a reason to complain about his ways

    Just call it what it is

    He doesn't even try to bring any high-level talent in from out-of-state. Anybody who is RB coach at UW should land the in-state kids.

    Missing my point

    I’m not arguing that KB wins tough recruiting battles

    What I’m saying is that you can’t have it both ways of criticizing him for going after the local kids and getting them when he does while at the same time bashing him if he drags his feet locally and losing them ... which would happen

    Hence my point that no matter what KB does he’s going to be bitched about

    Except literally no one is bashing him for going after the local kids and getting them, he's being bashed for simply settling for the lowest hanging fruit every recruiting cycle.
    Just show me a good run game and I'm happy. He usually does, except when we're running dives into the backs of our OL repeatedly.

    Has he had anyone to lose lately at the RB position? I don't know if Simon would count.

    People that bitch about KB really have to reach...

    RB has been one of the most consistent positions since he has gotten here.

    OL, QB, LB, WR, hell now even safety haven't performed as well.

    What you (and others) are insinuating is that these local kids are the lowest hanging fruit out there for him

    This is completely playing both sides

    I like how when the running game goes well you credit the RB but when it struggles you blame the OL.
    RB production for the most part is just basically just a production of OL play and good run scheme. In college there’s exceptions though like Etienne/Gaskin/Zeke/Saquan where it doesn’t matter as much.

    One thing I’ll give it to Boner on is his “stable” doesn’t put the ball on the turf very often

    KB has been here for 7 seasons. Four of those had Myles starting. How do you judge his non-Gaskin seasons (14, 19, and 20)?

    This. Gaskin was an amazing college RB that thrived despite Pete's inability to consistently field a competent offense. Haven't seen much outside of that. Hell, Ahmed looks smoother as a pro than he did twirling in the backfield with Brownsocks.

    Let us not forget that McGrew and Davis were both 4* California recruits. And before you start, I'm not defending Boner's recruiting. It could definitely be better, but he does get a bad rap sometimes because he posts skeleton pictures.

    Were either recruited by USC?

    I don't follow this shit nearly as closely as I used to (thank god) but I just remember every year Boner would settle for the 4th-5th option on the board even though it looked early on like we were in good position with higher targets- many of whom went on to be studs at other schools.
    Davis had a USC offer and McGrew did not.
