    Does having Helms in our program give us a leg up on getting Kanu potentially or not really as much of a factor in the long run?

    Not a factor.

    What's your take on the coaching staff and how they view the overall state of recruiting?

    Is there any recognition that last year was a regression in our recruiting?

    Is it clear within the staff that there are large disparities between coaches who can recruit and coaches that can't(comparing Huff and Will Harris for example) and how are those disparities viewed?

    If UW can land Emeka Megwa is he the only RB we take in this class?

    I put the over/under on visitors at 6 and took the over. Glad I didn’t put any money on that one.

    After a year of having no official visits, we only have one weekend set up with official visotrs. Oh, and it will only have 5-6 uncommitted recruits attending. Man, you know it's bad when Stanford has more official visits lined up.

    How are things looking for JTT and Morrison right now?
    He doesn't know... LOL

    Not sure. Curious how that plays out.

    Absolutely none. If your in Alts, get out because their time has ended. I expect a bearish bounce to 45-50k for BTC before it goes back down to sweep the lows. The only Alt I would even think about touching is ETH but the ETH/BTC chart looks absolutely terrible.

    The coaches at least prefer Megwa of the two?

    They don't recognize it. Jimmy believes they are superior in development and their process works. It's why he refuses to hire coaches outside of the program.
    So Harris won’t get/take any blue chip guys or he tries some and gives up pretty easy and goes for layups?

    Maybe it was Jimmy’s call to get Bookie through the portal and not Will Harris because that’s the kind of guy who does not seem reachable for us otherwise.

    The good/bad of the 2021 season is that if this team goes 12-1, wins the North, and wins the P12, it's just going to further reinforce this line of thinking within Jimmy.

    His biggest red flag as a coach is that he thinks he's the smartest person in the room ... which will continue to be the case until he's either proven to be such or he has a season where he gets humbled.

    As an aside, interesting interview with Hopkins on The Athletic today talking about the program makeover ... he talked a lot about how he lost culture, etc. that was obviously true. But he made another interesting observation ... regardless of all of that you've got to have players as without it the rest still doesn't matter.

    Ultimately, that's the balance that Jimmy's got to walk is in getting the players that fit what they want in the program with the players that they can make the best possible players in college ... the highest ranked guys aren't always the highest ranked guys after the fact.

    What would you say is most likely with Lake? He gets humbled at the college level from the recruiting standpoint or that he has 3-4 strong years and then jumps to the NFL if they come calling?

    Jimmy should sell recruits on how bad UW is at developing talent

    Harris tries, he just gets friend-zoned a lot.

    If there's only one recruiting weekend, isn't the "big" kind of redundant?
