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

Your Bedtime Schadenfreude

Quooks:

- Well Tennessee has tanked, WSU was never a possibility and he is no FUNA (ranking or not) so UW it is!

- We're still in on some big names. If we get 2 out of Sewell, Flowe, Ringo, I'd be ecstatic, no matter where we compare with UW. One thing that sucks is that Seattle metropolitan area HS football has got some really nice prospects the next few years. If UW can put up a fence, they'll continue to be a contender. But so will we I believe.

- Good for him, we will see, when Jimmy Lake gets hired away this spring I hope he still wants to play there

- It will be interesting to see if this one sticks. From the beginning it sounded like mom wanted him close to home at Washington but he wanted to get away from home. The SEC was his target, but Oregon was a compromise between staying at home and going across the country. If he really wanted to get away but family is convincing him to stick around this could turn into a Devon Williams case.

- If they had passed us as a numbers game, that’s be one thing. But same amount of kids and they are ahead. That’s what bugs me. We are at 8 4* and 12 3*, while they are at 1(5*),9(4*),and 9(3*) with a 2* (kicker I believe). They are just out recruiting us right now and it bugs the hell outta me.

- Given that it seems like mom and family played a big role, this is not likely, but imagine if they lose to USC (I don't think so, but USC has still got some horses) and then we beat them, and JImmy Lake goes for a HC job, well you never know. Keep 'crutin him!!! If we've learned anything today, it aint over till it's over and even then it's not over! LOL

- Watch him flip on signing day.

- Maybe they sold him on winning the PAC 12, having a great coach, and being in Seattle.

- I think it should be noted that despite the same number of kids and them having more blue chip players, our average recruit rating is exactly the same (89.29), and it took a 5 Star to get them to the same avg rating as us. They’re top heavy and our class is more well rounded. Plus If we do end up with Sewell our class seems will be back on top. I’d take our class over theirs in my opinion.

- If I’m a betting man, I’d say this one still has a few twists and turns left.

- Personally, I thought he was overrated as a 5 star. Would have been nice to get him, for sure, but I don't think he's a game changer. I would be surprised if he ends up as an all conference guy. Feel free to hold this post against me in 3-4 years. (Just for the record, I said this when he was an Oregon lean, so this is not just sour grapes).

- Eerily similar to the Devon Williams situation. Seems to be a parents vs Sav’ell situation. Again, I predict a few more developments here.

    I dont know if it was included in OPs list but the best comment i saw on their site was something like "the only reason I'm really pissed about UW getting Smalls is this means they will probably beat us in recruiting rankings"

    Oregon would claim victory even if we won the Natty and they ended up with a higher rated recruiting class.
