    This is a get a guy in the boat early that has good potential to replace the loss of Mosiah... and go hard after Banks and err Smalls.

    Get Banks. EVERYTHING matters.

    I'm all for not freaking out every time UW takes an apparent JAG commit for a couple of reasons. The best reason is that sometimes, frequently with this staff, the JAG (as we judged them) prospects turn out really good.

    But

    UW is thin on elite talent at linebacker. Theres a need to upgrade the recruiting. Go ahead and freak out you lunatics.

    I think the kid could be a good player for us

    I love how the internet tough guys are questioning Peterson and Whittingham on this offer. Last I checked all Utah LBs the last few years outplayed ours outside of BBK. All were huge and never missed tackles. Croots look at PT and we’re not going to get a stable of 5 star guys, it’s not going to happen. Let’s freak the fuck out more

    So the consensus is this was a reach?

    Have to wait for the senior tape to call it a stretch. Kawasaki got the kid in early, there has to be a reason for this

    Too much “but he’s a bigger BBK” talk. I hated BBK for a long time. We need to address the @LaMichael_Corleone question directly on EVERY recruit: Will this kid level up the program so we can beat the elite? This God fearing kid ain’t McMillan or Murao. We need to ditch Gregory and replace him with someone who can do better (and make K better).

    What's Gregory's contract status? Someone mentioned on Twitter replacing him with Gerald Alexander. Talk about a boner. Can he coach special teams?

    God I hope he and Paopap and Boner get canned sooner than later.

    Clemson hit the lottery and got a generational QB.

    Way to toe that party line. Don't think you strayed an inch.

    Not the most impressive offer list. Usually when we take a 3 star with a lowish ranking, the Pac 12 offered in addition to some other legit schools.

    Only decent offers is Utah and Baylor

    I haven't watched his film, but this seems like a reach we shouldn't have to take at this point. I guess I'll watch the film though, because honestly I thought the same thing about Sawyer until watching his film

    In fairness, I wouldn’t use “only Utah and Baylor” offered as the only decent ones as an indictment

    We know Whittingham knows defense ... Matt Ruhle at Baylor knows a bit about defense as well

    Knowing a bit about defense? Its fucking Utah and Baylor. Has anyone said the talent on those two teams can compete for a national championship or establish a new dynasty? FUCK NO. Beating out Utah and Baylor while Wisconsin beats you out for a LB from Hawaii is as indicting as it fucking gets.


    “Is this good enough to beat Bama and Clemson?” Is the only fucking question that needs to be asked to see if we are meeting standards. Period.

    Clemson took a lot of dudes that weren’t good enough to beat Clemson on the way to becoming Clemson.
    Clempson has 4 top 10 classes in the last 6 years.

    Tiring, isn’t it? Slow strategy white kid from Texas with less than 4 stars next to his name. Therefore we hate him.

    So we took 6 LB's last year (2018) and this year we are taking as many as 5 (Bruener, McDonald, Lolohea, and hopefully Banks/Smalls). This doesn't even include walk-ons Ulofoshio or Fowler. I am curious how many we take in 2021 and who jumps in early to secure their spot. Latu appears to be the 1st on Oct 25.
