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.
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.
Way to toe that party line. Don't think you strayed an inch.
Tiring, isn’t it? Slow strategy white kid from Texas with less than 4 stars next to his name. Therefore we hate him.

Or it’s because he is plain slow and doesn’t have elite offers.
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.
Kwat is an evil genius coordinator who is fucking drowning in recruiting. Drowning. And for whatever reason, Pete seems content to just watch him gurgle. Super frustrating, considering we couldn't get off the field on third down in the Fiesta Bowl, then had to watch Haskins throw all over us in the Rose Bowl. We need a fucking pass rush.
Gregory and Kwat have been atrocious in recruiting this year... it will continue to hold us back until Pete decides to do something about it.

The problem is I think Gregory and Kwat and true inner circle guys at this point. They are Peterman. And hell I love Kwat, just not as a recruiter. Gregory can get fucked.
Also, not impressed. It's July and we are taking some try hard from Texas? I'm fine with this offer in November when all the top guys have told the dynamic duo of Kwat and Shitbird to fuck off, but Plan B guys in July is a bad look. At least it's not Plan C? FML

I’m willing to LIPO and withhold judgment until after the senior season hudl comes out.
Herbig and Botelho were major fuck ups. We? got beat out for guys that should have been easy gets. Let’s just get that out of the way first and foremost.
As for this kid, his ranking doesn’t bother me. I think it’s actually pretty low and Wiltfong mentioned it should be higher. Likely .85 or .86. That would be right in line with Ah You and Tuputala, who we all love. The ranking doesn’t mean shit. The tape does.
His Junior tape isn’t amazing. But he has good size that matches what has been recruited at ILB the last two classes with guys like Sirmon/Calvert/Tuputala/Heimuli, hits like a truck and dudes go down quick, he has decent quickness and speed, and has a nose for turnovers and takes them to the house when he gets them.
This is not Clemson and Bama Level. Obviously. I wanted Herbig and Botelho. I want Smalls and Banks. But this kid was identified early. He committed the July before his Senior year, not January after it.
We didn’t hate Tafisi, Tuputala, or Ah You because their ranking sucked.
I’m waiting until his senior film comes out. If he hasn’t improved or doesn’t wow me, I’ll shit on him then.

This is the comparison. Okay player who could be good if he plays Mike from day one. Is gonna be painfully average on the edge though. At least he's gonna be able to redshirt, unlike Tevis.
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

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.
Yes. And Sweeney has been there since 2008. What did Clemson look like in 2013 and 2014 when, like Pete, Dabo was in year 6? Hint: they went 10-3 and had the 15th ranked class. Dabo took a 2* OLB that year with a 79 rating.
We’re acting like this isn’t a long process and we aren’t on the proper trajectory.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. Take this shit to doogman.

Yep.
Notice how all of those came after the generational QB.
