    To add to the questions, are the rumors true that this is going to be a very good weekend/next few weeks for us?

    Also, what did Mosili Liu do that got him kicked off the team?

    He smoked weed

    @sonics1993 now that we're a month past signing day, any interesting stories/rumors from the 2020 recruiting trail that you can now share? Who did we come really close to getting? Did Gee Sr really punch a high school coach? Did Bothelo actually consider flipping to us? Anything?

    Bothelo was interested and on the verge of tripping here until he wasn't. For a couple months they felt like they had a good shot of getting him on campus and on a visit.

    @sonics1993 are you in agreement with Chester that being non-white should have been the top qualification for the OC and/or TE hire?

    On a serious note

    1- any other info on the GA "offer"? I'm assuming he's looking for a higher job than co defensive backs coach.

    2- what do you know/think about Cato?

    3- what % do you put as at for just Yary? (Not including Togiai)

    - He wants to call plays and Jimmy isn’t screwing over Coach K for that
    - That he’s an analyst and apparently our new TE coach
    - 75% right now if it’s between us, UCLA and USC. If schools like ASU and Oregon jump in then that decreases.

    So he’s leaving Cal then because he doesn’t call plays there either? And he gets paid shit.
    And he left Cal.

    @sonics1993 is the portal something PJ Lake going to use?

    Wouldn't expect it be to used very often. Only reason they are trying to use it for the QB position is because of the lack of numbers and lack of experience at that position.

    Pretty dull recruiting class as far as stories go since the class was wrapped up by summers end. Only juicy story was Oregon and Smalls and that has already been spoken about. As far as Botelho goes, twice a flight was booked for him to visit only for him to cancel at the last minute. Going 7-5 certainly didn't help but ND did a good job of pressuring him to commit and then not visit. But if we would have gotten him on campus, it would have been a wrap.

    @sonics1993 who has a worse take on Husky Recruiting, Scott "Jacobe loves UW" Eklund or Chest "Lake hasn't recruited a good player since Rapp" Chester?

    Got to go with Chest. How can you say Jimmy’s recruiting hasn’t been good enough? I have listen to there podcast a few times and they have said a lot of things that are false but act like it’s true then bitch about it. It’s really weird.
    What are your thoughts on the lack of DB offers in 2021? I understand its a weak class, but shouldn't they want to get a headstart on someone like Steven Ortiz given the lack of great talent out west?
    Jimmy wants to take his time when it comes to offering because he knows he can wait. Everyone on the west coast knows what a UW offer means as a DB so he will take his time evaluating there sophomore years before offering. I expect some offers to roll out in January.

    @sonics1993 Curious what the rumor mills have swirling around. Wasn't expecting the Spears commit, curious if there are any similar stealth commitments inbound.

    There are a few that are close to committing, one of them in particular would be huge if he did pull the trigger. Expect the spring game to have a lot of visitors and it will be a crucial recruiting weekend.
    I’m guessing the huge one you’re mentioning is the one that’s been teased on Dawg man by acrop? I feel if it’s considered that big it’s Jt or Franklin or something.

    How low does Jimmy's schlong hang relative to Pete's when it comes to recruiting so far? To the knees? Scraping the floor? Coiled on the floor and spitting like a cobra?

    Didn’t love him or Herbig, but still wish he would have made it to campus and committed. Another quality LB to throw in wouldn’t have hurt.

    What's the feeling on Bruener? I feel like when he's a RS SO we are gonna be glad we grabbed him. Is a OLB or what?

    He's an inside LB. I think he has the tools. He's pretty fast and tackles well. I doubt we'll have to wait till his third year to decide we hate him though.

    Think he was a reach along with McDonald but hope i'm wrong.

    Got to see how he closes before I can compare. Pete was a proven closer, Jimmy has yet to prove that.

    No. He’s an underdeveloped kid that will get much bigger and already has the athleticism. He’s probably a smart player too. Tons of tackles in high school, albeit on a terrible team.

    He will be better than both the plodding Hawaii LB’s. Take the screenshots.

    Who is the other Hawaii lb other than Ah Choo?

    I believe he was referring to Hawaii LB prospects UW missed on. Botelho and Herbig.

    Not Ah You. Herbig and Botelho were who I was talking about. Ah You didn’t run that fast, but he’s not a plodder at all.

    After watching Botelho again, it’s hard to say. Botelho is a better prospect outside. I don’t like him in the middle much.

    I know Bruener's dad was huge but Carson's frame wasn't that big last time I saw. I hope he doesn't struggle to put weight on.

    Best case scenario is he grows 2" and moves to TE

    Botelho is a dude. A far better player than Bruener and McDonald, now and in the future.
    Not sure about the future, but Botelho is better now. I agree with that. Botelho should be a pass rushing OLB. Don’t see it at ILB. His best skill is getting after the QB.

    For all those worried about Bruner’s size, I’m hoping he’s just somewhat of a late bloomer. If he’s 205 now, he should be able to get to around 225, which is big enough to play ILB in the PAC-12. He looks young. Like mentioned above, dad is huge. I think he’s going to be pretty good.
