Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Future is bright!!

It may not be a big deal or maybe I had a couple drinks in me and I'm dooging but I wanted to point out that on dawgman in the commitment section where they list the top 25 commits ever for uw I would like to point out the 6 have yet to play a down for UW. I think that is huge for UW and the program that 6 of the top 25 commits have yet to play. I also understand that some of those highest rated croots some never panned out the way they were hyped but still 6!? Also how it Tuitele not 5 stars..... that is all

    I have only been super excited for two recruits in my lifetime. The first was Mike Lustyk and the second was Reggie Williams. The only time I have ever been crushed by a recruit spurning UW for someplace else was Kevin Willhite.

    Casey Paus, Jake Browning, Cyler Miles and Troy Williams are in the top 25. How the fuck is that possible?

    They rated super high in hs.

    We saw the college years which usually doesn't correlate with expectations from hs based on potential. It is what it is.

    Browning had the touchdown record hype in hs. Miles had the hyped athleticism. Paus had the hyped gunslinger look. Williams... Don't remember actually.

    Wasn't Williams the #1 duel threat QB in his class? And he was recruited by Sark so you get bonus points

    Paus was a legitimately top 100 rated recruit (nepotism hype? not that his brother was even good), but absolutely right on the others. When middling four stars are in your top 25 of all time (well the TBS site era anyway), your recruiting has been shit.
