    We took him at WR... fuck

    Pete has a pretty damn good track record of every two-way recruit ending up at his best position. Can you name any player Pete has put at the wrong position?

    Whether Sawyer ends up a WR or an ILB, I'm pretty confident it'll be the right spot.
    Draco Bynum
    Trey Lowe
    How could you possibly know this? Arent they both sophs?

    Disagree on both.

    Draco isn't going to see playing time at TE or DL any time soon. Who knows or cares where he ends up. As for Trey, are you suggesting he get moved to RB? I don't see any immediate benefit there, especially since I think he's poised to become a damn fine slot receiver for us. I'm not opposed to getting him carries, so I think WR utilizes his versatility better.

    Draco is light years away from PT at DL. And he’ll be overtaken by a bunch of true frosh soon too. WTE has proven a very important role in our offense, and there’s currently only one true WTE on the roster. Over the last three years, Pete’s offense has performed best with two WTEs on the field at the same time. Moving Draco is an absolute no-brainer, IMO.

    Trey is fine at WR, I guess, if 5’7” benchwarmers are your jam. The WR depth chart is super crowded, though, with bigger targets who can go up and catch contested balls. At RB, Trey could have an immediate 3rd down role. Trey also runs better in traffic than any back currently on roster (at least until Davis arrives).

    Lot of speculation here. Lowe is a worse McGrew...not every person on the DL is going to be a starter. Some people are just fine rotating in game their RS Junior and Senior seasons.

    Draco needs to put some weight in that ass before he seems the field

    Agreed. I always thought he was going to be a great scatback. We'll see how he's used before I pass judgement though.

    Bold statement, I know.

    I think his size is legit. From the video I posted a couple weeks ago, him running through the hole he was clearly one of the bigger guys on the field. Super stoked. I think this kid has intangibles that maybe dont translate to film or numbers. Hope he commits soon, mostly because commitments are like a drug and I need a fix! Also because I think we can only take so many more white guys.

    Gaaaaaard
    Garbers
    Redman
    Hatchet
    Raconelli

    That's about the quota. Of course unless there are meaty badass linemen to be had.

    Might need to make room for one more in Carson Bruener... knowing Gregory he'll need to take a white lb
    I don't think Bruener will get an offer at this point. I feel like Gregory's white LB will end up being Nick Herbig.
    Nailed it

    Only singling out my incorrect takes, I see how it is.

    Didn't even realize they were both yours, just saw a chance to have some fun with a couple of obvious bump candidates.

    Some poster on DM says Sawyer tore his ACL during a scrimmage yesterday.

    Rumor is Racanelli tore his ACL at practice and will miss his entire senior season. That's shitty. I really wanted go see what kind of stats this kid would put up as a senior

    Can we still drop him for Scott?

    Does this injury guarantee a move to LB?

    screenshot from The Columbian....he tore it in June. UW Medical Center will do the surgery.

    Shit sucks, but at least he already has his scholarship lined up

    Will miss what probably would have been an awesome year, but he may have missed 4-6 if it was a year earlier

    No one is even mentioning Racanelli even though his film is transcendent.



    I don’t wanna believe in jinxing people, but MAN.
    So...no more film study?

    Racanelli will rehab and play and then in that first game against Oregon, you just fucking know that Papa Sewell will come flying out of the stands and go right for that knee.
