I see Nansen is the recruiter for SC. Hope he doesn't have any brother issues.
-
The 2021 ILB class is loaded. This guy, Julien Simon, Ethan Calvert, Keith Brown, and Will Latu are all good options
-
I happen to know this young man is very high on The Buffs expect to see him in Black And Gold next year.

Over the past couple of weeks, things have picked up on the recruiting trail as the Husky coaching staff has begun to, at least slightly, turn their attention toward the 2021 recruiting class and this weekend they will play host to four-star Mililani (Hi.) LB Wynden Ho'ohuli.
During the bye week, Washington defensive line coach Ikaika Malloe dropped by to watch Ho'ohuli and his team take on Kahuku.
"It was cool to see him there on the sidelines," Ho'ohuli told Dawgman.com. "It wasn't a great game for us (they lost 7-3), but he got the chance to see us play against a really good team."
Ho'ohuli said speaking with Malloe has given him a lot of interest in Washington.
"He said he loved watching me play," Ho'ohuli noted. "I had a good game individually (six tackles, three tackles-for-loss and a forced fumble), but it's a team game, so we win together, we lose together, but he talked about what Washington has to offer and what it means to be a Husky, stuff like that, so I am really interested in them and I'm planning to visit this weekend when they play Utah, which is a big game."
Ho'ohuli is one of the leaders on his team, posting over 80 tackles from his linebacker spot and he's versatile enough to be their starting punter as well.
"I just love playing football," Ho'ohuli said with a laugh. "I am good at reading the play and filling gaps. I can get my teammates lined up right and I always know my assignment."
Washington hasn't offered yet, but Arizona, Arizona State, Hawaii, Nebraska, USC and Utah all have and schools like LSU, Boise State, Oregon and Washington State have all been talking to him quite a bit as well.
"It's all new to me, so I'm not really sure where things are going," Ho'ohuli admitted. "I mean, it's all new and I'm just trying to take it in stride and make sure I just keep working on playing ball with my teammates and the rest will sorta take care of itself."
Helping the Huskies' cause is his close relationship with freshman defensive lineman Faatui Tuitele.
"I played (at St. Louis) and then transferred back here (to Mililani), so I got to know him pretty well," Ho'ohuli said. "We're pretty good friends and we talk a lot.
"He loves it there. He said the coaches are amazing and it's got a real family atmosphere up there. He said it's a lot like home, back here, and that I need to get up there and check it out for myself."
Ho'ohuli will be with his family on his trip and we will get his thoughts on the visit once he's left campus. -
Don't let Gregory talk to this kid for one second
-
This kid is a lock to @PurpleBaze ’s UW in Madison

"Coach (Bob) Gregory offered me," an excited Ho'ohuli told Dawgman.com on Sunday night. "I got the chance to talk to all of the coaches, but especially coach (Ikaika) Malloe and coach Gregory and then I also got a chance to speak to coach (Chris) Petersen.
"They are all great coaches and they really care about their players. I got a good feeling while I was up there.
"Getting an offer from them is pretty special because they don't send out a lot of offers. That's something that sticks out."
"I know they didn't get the win, but it was a great game and they played hard," Ho'ohuli noted. "The fans were really into the game. They get great support there. The stadium was full and it was loud. That is the most people I've ever seen at a game."
The offer from Washington is the 10th for the talented linebacker, joining the ones he already had from Arizona, Arizona State, Oregon, Washington State, Oregon State, USC, Utah, Hawaii and Nebraska.

CB by Angulo. I would be more excited but I remember him doing the same thing w/ Botelho and we all know how that ended up. Please just keep Gregory away.

Man, once I read "Gregory" I had an allergic reaction

Malloe is helping right? I would feel a little better if out resident Island Dwag is involved.sonics1993 said:

One of the top linebackers on Washington's 2021 board is Mililani (Hi.) LB Wynden Ho'ohuli and last week, Dawgman.com's Chris Fetters was able to catch up with the talented prospect to get his thoughts on the start of the recruiting process and where the Huskies stand on his list of favorites.
"There have been lots of schools heading out here, so it's been great," Ho'ohuli said of the "official" start of the recruiting process. "I've got a lot of offers right now and I've been talking to a lot of schools.
"Coach (Ikaika) Malloe is my main contact (with Washington) and I talk a lot with coach (Bob) Gregory and I talked a lot with coach (Chris) Petersen before he left."
Washington has been recruiting Ho'ohuli for the better part of the last six months and he took an unofficial visit to check out Washington the weekend they played host to Utah.
"I was up there for the game and got the chance to be down on the field for warm-ups and sat in the stands for the game," Ho'ohuli noted. "It was a really great environment up there. I definitely got the chance to picture myself playing up there.
"I'm pretty close with Faatui Tuitele from when I played at St. Louis (High School) and we're still pretty good friends. He loves it up there. He said it's a great school and the community up there, the Poly community, is really strong."
Washington is currently his only visit up to this point, but he is planning to visit other schools this spring.
"Utah was the first school to offer me and that's when everything started, so I'd like to get out to see them and when we go out to play in a 7-on-7 tournament I'd like to take the chance to see some other schools, like LSU, and I'm also planning to get out to see Oregon for their spring game as well."
Ho'ohuli isn't in a rush to make a decision, but he said he's been thinking about what he's looking for in the school he winds up signing with.
"I've been talking to my mom about it and we are looking for a school that will take care of me for four years," Ho'ohuli acknowledged. "My mom wants me to further my education and my goal is to improve as a football player, and set a good example for everyone back home. I want to find a place where I can fit in and make everyone (back home) proud of me."
As a junior this past season, Ho'ohuli finished with over 80 tackles while helping to lead his team to a 9-3 record.
He currently is rated four stars and ranks as the fourth-best inside linebacker prospect in the country while being rated a 0.9199 in the industry-generated 247Composite. -

This guy, Calvert, and Simon would be a good haul. Even two of the three would be pretty good. I think we have a good shot at all three, especially if Calvert recovers and plays well this year.

Can we call him Patches O'Ho'ohulihan?

Are we really going to have 12 scholarship inside backers with no one graduating after 2021 though? Curious if we see some attrition after the LB depth chart is fledged out this season. On paper even with some attrition the 2021 class won’t be huge.RoadDawg55 said:This guy, Calvert, and Simon would be a good haul. Even two of the three would be pretty good.

I already thought it after Lakes comments about his philosophy but then they had him take pics in number 24.
He’s gonna be a RB.
