    Honestly like the offer. Is this a push to get Adams and/or Robinson to commit or a whiff on those 2 by the staff?

    Wait, he hasn't even met Bhonapha or Harris, the guys recruiting him? Is that how this works?

    Last RB we had named Brandon is now in jail, just sayin.

    I think we can agree that Brandons, as a whole, haven’t fared too well in world sports history. As you’ve shown they also have a high propensity for crime.

    I like him.

    Fuck Texas.

    Let's recruit Dagestan.

    At least they can wrestle. And the costs of recruiting will blow their budget ....

    Recruiting Texas is a necessary strategy for UW going forward

    It should never be viewed as s primary source but it will be needed to get 3-5 guys per year at its peak

    Why?
    Havent we had success (for literal decades) by owning Washington, hitting California hard with a constant presence in Hawaii? Supplemented with the occasional mountain state prospect? Why is this formula no longer functional?
    The demographics and participation levels in West Coast football may very well present challenges

    On top of that there are certain positions that may be more difficult in terms of player quantities on the West Coast

    Being able to recruit successfully in Texas to some degree will continue to open up doors and opportunities to maintain elite level classes when there are down years at positions in the more traditional recruiting grounds

    9 of 22 ‘21 offers are TX

    #4-7 in WA have not been offered in ‘21

    #facts

    The tExASS offers will probably be cooled on when they get to know the kids and realize their fast strategy exceeds petermans maximum allowed amount.

    So yea, great use of time and resources.

    I’ve heard West Coast schools will be hard pressed to win a Natty vs the SEC schools because of the abundance of recruiting talent in the South

    Then I hear that UW recruiting in the South is a waste of time and there’s plenty of West Coast talent to win a Natty

    Which one is it?

    We will never beat Texas, A&M, Oklahomo, LSU or any other worth a shit southwest program for recruits. Furthermore we are never going to build any meaningful relationship with HS programs in TX. The truth is to a Texan this place is shit and we are all fags.
    One of the reasons I love Husky football is because we have always had great success with local/ regional kids. I enjoy rooting for kids from WA and CA. I dont give a fuck about Texas and the feeling is mutual.

    I for one have never taken the stance of recruiting the souwf... only the stance of a west coast kid hating his life if he’s fast strategy and goes to a southern school.

    Funny thing is that the demographics in Texas are massively changing with people coming into the State

    Your take is correct for a certain population of the State ... but I don’t find that population consistent with who we are recruiting

    Texas will be interesting to watch under Herman ... I’m still not sold on him. TAMU will be doing better with Jimbo but they are much more Houston focused. LSU under O is going to focus heavily on Louisiana and Houston in Texas. Oklahoma is DFW driven but they are expanding nationally.

    You could definitely argue that one way to check recruiting expansion for others is to hit them back in their bases. Every kid that Oklahoma gets from Cali in theory means that there is someone in Texas they aren’t getting.

    So point being there is room and opportunity.

    Vic and Levi say fuck you
    Levi was between us and Baylor. He wasn't recruited by Texas, A&M, Oklahoma, LSU.

    Curne was under the radar when he committed to us. He did get some of those big offers but not until after Huff locked him up.

    Sounds great in theory but we had the same theoretical discussion 5 years ago. Since then we've signed 4 guys total out of Texas. Its been a waste of fucking time.

    If we need Texas then we need to go all out not this half assed tossing out of offers to kids we've barely talked to and that have 10 other offers anyway. Hire coaches with actual local recruiting ties. At least one for Houston area and at least one for Dallas area.
    We hadn't established ground in Texas 5 years ago and we weren't established as a good program 5 years ago.

    Gawd just shut the fuck up with this shit.

    Southern black players, according to you, are more explosive, physical football players than the ones in the west. You never answered my question asking why the southern schools are recruiting the west coast and PNW so hard now. Every commit they take from out here means one less from the superior gene pool right in their back yard.

    Those are arguments that I’ve heard from different people/groups ...

    So not exactly a strawman

    Scoring Levi was a big win and an outlier. Curne has yet to prove anything without a clear path to start. He's limited to guard. After Watty, Ale appears to be next in line. Jaws is locked in on the other side.

    Is the effort recruiting in Texas worth lessening the time spent recruiting the west coast, at risk of alienating several of the local kids who apparently need further evaluating before Pete decides if they are worthy of offering? MAYBE
