    The big question: Which memeber of Coach's Malloe's historic coup of a recruiting class will be the greatest Husky Legend?
    -Draco Bynum
    -Noa Ngalu
    -Faatui Tuitele
    -Jacob Bandes
    -Saama Paama
    -Liatu Latu

    Latu rather easily. It ain’t happening for the rest of them. Small chance Tuitele is a serviceable back up, low end starter, but he’s been mostly capped out physically since high school and is a tweezer. Not big and strong enough to plug the run. Not quick and disruptive enough to be consistently disruptive.
    I forgot that Liatu did actually play in a couple games for us and got a safety against Sacramento State or something like that. You're right. He's likely the legend

    He also rode the portal to UCLA and is looking night and day. Night and day. So there's still a possibility he could and up an AA or something and crush the rest of that list.

    Paama was probably the best. COVID sabbatical back home and never returned🤷‍♂️

    He easily had the most potential of the bunch along with Latu.

    I thought he had to transfer because UW would not clear him to play?

    I always hate when schools do this type of dumb shit. They seem to always end up fine after going to other schools. I haven’t seen it happen much at UW, but at other places.

    Weirdly, the last time I heard about it, it was an OLB being forced to transfer away from UCLA because they wouldn't clear him. Now it's a UW OLB transferring to UCLA for the same reason.

    UW retired Austin Joyner. He wanted to come back. He's up in B.C. playing in the CFL.

    It sucked when he went down in 2018 I think it was. He hit like a motherfucker and we needed that in 19.
