Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
The usage of Will Harris is completely illogical

These were Harris' first follows right after he got the job

And now here he is spending all week in Texas
We hired a swaggy so-cal dude to recruit Texas. Here's and idea, if you want to recruit Texas, maybe hire someone from Texas.
Meanwhile, as clearly the best DB school in the west, we are getting blown the fuck out on Elias Ricks, Kelee Ringo, Clark Phillips and Lathan Ransom. You don't need to recruit ANY defensive backs in Texas, there are fucking plenty of them on the West Coast, maybe recruit them. Its a good thing we have two DB coaches!
Our defensive backs class will probably still be good, because Jimmy Lake, but that's not really the point.
What is the best usage of Will Harris' strengths? If you hire Will Harris as an 'extra coach', (meaning that Lake is still going to recruit all the DBs) let Harris go all out recruiting the elite so-cal guys. We might actually have a shot at Justin Flowe, Jordan Banks, or Elias Ricks if Harris was laser focused on getting them.
I don't mind recruiting Texas as much as some people. If you want to send Coach K to Dallas to offer a few high upside Nigerian defensive ends, I have no problem with that. But what do we think we are doing investing so many resources into Texas for a coach WHO HAS NO EXPERIENCE RECRUITING TEXAS? Do we actually think we are going to compete with Texas or A&M for kids?
Will Harris seems like a charismatic dude, and I'm sure he'd do fine recruiting Texas kids. But I don't think you can convince me that is the best use of him as a recruiter.
Free Will Harris from this bullshit

Another armchair recruiter, sitting in his own shit-stained boxers, getting off on the smell of his own farts, thinking they know more than the coaches. Standard operating procedure.

No ballz and Malloe don’t suck right now... until they do.
Last years class sucked, until it didn’t... (couple splashes at the end could’ve made it amazeballz but we don’t have bagmen.)
Our current strategy sucks, until it doesn’t.
Yes, that’s the typical MO.
Side note- who doesn’t like the smell of their own farts? Asken for a fren. -
Harris in Texas? Well KB is our recruiting coordinator. Pretty much explains it.

I was going to make a similar thread. It seemed he was hired to replace Lake because it looked like Lake was going to leave soon. That clearly wasn't the case and Harris seems a little bit redundant. But what do I know.

There's liking the smell of your own farts and then there's masturbating to the smell of your own farts. Completely different ballgame.dirtysouwfdawg said:

I don’t get the focus on Texas. We’ve only signed a couple of guys from Texas since Pete’s been here.

Word is he was told to dust of his resume

Does Pete know you’re allowed to fire more than one assistant per year?FirePete said:Word is he was told to dust of his resume

Where are the tweets from the Washington HS schools thanking UW assistants for stopping by? Exactly. Pete’s strategy is befuddlingNeighbor2972 said:These were Harris' first follows right after he got the job

It really isn’t. It’s a waste of time and money!
