    It's simple, if he goes to UW he'll have a great college experiencing shitting all over this shit conference and going to the playoffs. If he goes to Oregon, somebody on UW's defense will break him in half. You can either play against the best defense in practice every day and be challenged to get better or you can plateau at Oregon and play against UW's defense every year in live games and get your ass kicked with lesser quarterbacks throwing you the ball. From this point on, you do not want to playing in the the North division for any team besides UW. At Oregon, you'll be retard fighting the other North teams for second place. The choice is yours. But it's really not that difficult.

    If you want to play with the big boys

    Or we can pretend you're right and 120 years of college football history are wrong and recruits don't get paid

    See 1991 - it actually was not just fruit baskets

    In fact in the 90's there was a nice rhythm, win a natty go on probation

    I bet you think Willie Lyles was telling kids to wait for that big payday the last time UO started getting big name recruits

    Kim mentioned in a side thread that one of his sources told him about a kid who was paid 350k this cycle to commit. Wouldn’t say the kids name, but said UW offered early but had not been a player in the recruitment for a long time.
    I would guess that number got greatly exaggerated through the rumor mill.

    You can throw that kind of cash around in basketball where you only need one or two players to make a team but in football you need 40+.

    Similarly research shows that the higher the number of officials needing to be bribed (think IOC/FIFA) the lower the bribe market rate.
    I’d argue the

    I knew a kid that committed to a blue chip school, collected $400k then decomitted to another blue chip school and collected $450k and an allowance for his Mom's housing. He had already spent the first money on high end hookers and blow. UW was mentioned for him early on and he drove through Tacoma twice.

    I can't mention his name or I'd be swimming with the fishes .

    $10.95 please
    Ok!

    Cam Newton's agent tried to get what, $150k (and allegedly failed?) I know inflation and all but still...Cam Newton.

    If there were ever one player to buy to get you to a title...

    I do think he’s torn. If he wasn’t he just would have committed to Oregon, even without a WR coach.

    Whatever we want to say about Oregon those coaches can fucking sell. The fact he is taking his time on the decision feels like a genuine thing, even if he’s just waiting to see who they hire. It has to be very hard to say I’m waiting to that staff down there.

    :55

    He basically says the coordinator doesn’t matter as much and he’s more worried about the head coach. So yea I agree he is torn. Oregon is trying to convince him with a WR coaching hire but it will be a small factor. If he goes to Oregon it’s because they offered a better pitch, plain and simple.

    The defense won’t be better. We’ll see if Eason makes your offense better. It’s hard to say that Oregon won’t be better on both sides of the ball. I would say drastically better.

    The offense will open up more in its 2nd year under the same OC. The RBs will be sophomores. TE depth should finally be good. All 5 startling OL are returning. Our weak link WR coach is gone.

    On defense we will have much more depth and should have a much deeper rotation.

    Why would UW be better next year?
    Because statistically Washington's defense has improved four years in row regardless of losing numerous big-time defensive players to the NFL over the years. Overall, UW's defense will be deeper and more talented than it's ever been during the Petersen era. There will be zero holes from a talent perspective at any position on defense. UW's biggest weakness on defense has been their pass rush from the edges. RS Sophomores Joe Tryon and Ariel Ngata, RS Freshman Zion Tupuola-Fetui, and true Freshman Laiatu Latu give UW the talent they need to vastly improve that weakness and turn it into a strength.

    On offense, UW returns 4 out 5 starters on the offensive line. Former 1st-team All-Conference 6'8 LT Trey Adams returns healthy for his Senior season. 1st-team All-Conference Center Nick Harris returns for his Senior season. RG Jaxson Kirkland was a Freshman All-American last season. He returns for his RS Sophomore season and with another year of physical development under his belt, the 6'7 long-armed behemoth will compete for All-Conference honors. At RT, Jared Hilbers likely gets the nod. The 6'7 soon to be Senior started most of the season at LT for UW while filling in for Trey Adams and there was no noticeable drop off between the two. LG is the only question mark. Last season's starter RS Junior Luke Wattenberg returns but RS Sophomore Henry Bainivalu and RS Freshman Victor Curne are both a threat to beat him out for the starting job.

    At QB, UW will experience a major change in QB talent. Browning and Eason are on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to college QB talent. It's a massive difference in talent at the most important position on the field.

    At RB, Salvon Ahmed looks to replace Myles Gaskin as UW's new primary back. Ahmed needs to improve his decision making but his talent exceeds Gaskin's and he's a homerun threat every time he touches the ball.

    All of UW's receivers return from last season along with an infusion of talent from Chris Petersen's best WR class to date: Austin Osborne, Marquis Spiker, and Trey Lowe.

    At TE UW returns the best receiving TE in the country, Hunter Bryant, and traditional TE Cade Otton who's a quality blocker and threat in the passing game as well.

    On top of all of the returning talent, UW also has a soft non-conference schedule to break in new players at key positions and get everybody dialed in for conference play. UW's conference schedule is also extremely favorable with games against USC, Oregon, Utah, Cal and WSU all being at home. Their toughest game will likely be Stanford on the road and Stanford doesn't have much of a home field advantage with sparse crowds. Out of UW's 12 regular season games, 7 of them will be at home. UW is undefeated at home the past two seasons. Their road games will be at BYU, at Stanford, at Arizona, at Oregon State, and at Colorado. That's probably the easiest road schedule in the conference.

    Does that suffice?

    Adams is a shell of himself (I would be concerned with him making it with back issues) and Hilbers is a stick and post OT. Also, Kirkland will always be limited physically. As much as Browning gets dogged, he made the OL look better than they were in pass pro. I can see pass pro being an issue next year with Eason back there.

    We will see on Ahmed. Really was expecting more of him.

    Part of why the defense had improved is the god awful offense in our conference. I would be supremely surprised if you defense improves. I just didn’t see dudes at ILB,

    Tyron looked to come on but Ngata didn’t impress. The you got dudes who’ve never played.
