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

Jimmy Lake - Alpha Male

Theres a 247 article about Asa Turner's commitment. Asa talks about how he was going back and forth and finally Jimmy Lake paid him a visit, didnt feed him any bullshit but just said, "You need to man up and make a decision. We need to move on to other guys if you're not in." After that Asa's decision was made.

    It's even more impressive that Jimmy was straight up with him after Asa was a backstabbing little bitch.

    Jimmy is the best DB coach in this side of Mississippi (if not the nation).

    Good sign of the relationship they'll have going forward, Asa clearly respects Lake from a personality standpoint rather than an "I'll get drafted" one.

    Probably but I assume the lake is in contact with all the top defensive targets.

    Im sorry baseman I love you and I was just talking about your amazing rose bowl appearance this weekend, but this doesn't make any sense. Jimmy got him to wait by telling him to hurry up so we can move on from you?

    Both. On signing day Jimmy told him to wait and rethink his decision. Then Turner drug it out, waffled, then Jimmy told him to man up and make a decision.

    That was my take all along. Things change. Make a decision. He visited both schools. Listened to their individual pitches. He liked UW because of Jimmy then said he doubted Washington—as if they, Jimmy, lied to him—because ND told him he was a LB.

    This could be taken out of context of this wording starts to spread. Just sayin.

    My working theory on Smalls is that he wanted to go to Clemson or the SEC and play REAL football before falling hard for the #HometownHero line and then realizing if he went anywhere other than UW he’d never be able to effectively “rep for Seattle” ... he needed an out

    Smalls has also said in the past that he realizes that going to Oregon will also not put him in good graces in Seattle ... so he’s never going there ... but they are in the mix purely to try to sabotage UW ... so they say some shit that obviously isn’t true and it’s able to be turned into the “out” that Smalls needs to cool off #HometownHero while having a narrative behind it that at least some will buy in Seattle

    That’s my working theory because the existing narrative makes absolutely no sense

    For Jimmy's next magic trick, I want to see him somehow get Zion Alefosio academically qualified. That would be his biggest heist yet as because even though I liked him more than Ransom, outside of Covington and Esteen we're pretty fucked at a position already lacking depth.

    Paster?
