Couple of thoughts ...
Losing Owen Prentice should be a massive wakeup call if that happens ... it's less on Huff because we know he can recruit but it drives home the combination of 1) how bad the Donovan hire was and 2) how directionless the entire recruiting message is. Prentice should be a slam dunk.
We are past going to Plan B guys ... we're now deep into the Plan C guys. It's a complete joke. And for those that liked saying Pete needed to up his game, the number of Plan C guys that we ever really looked at was low, very low.
It's been said before, but it needs to be driven home that at this point there's mounting evidence that Jimmy Lake is at best learning tough lessons the hard way and at worst in over his head. He may have been a strong recruiter as a DB/DC, but it's a completely different game as a head coach. And at this point whether you want to look at the staff that he's put together, the ability to convince and close recruits, etc. it's pretty much a disaster. What's most concerning to me is that the job he walked into at UW is about as good of a situation as you could draw up. To date it is looking like a giant fuck up of epic proportions. And if that's the case, I have ZERO confidence in Jen Cohen at this point to make a competent decision. -
Two things @sonics1993
1) Thanks for your contributions and insights
2) Can you please change your avatar to the actual Sonics in 1993 logo? That Sonics logo is such trash ... green and gold is the only color for the Supes -
Yeah, the recruiting stuff makes you wonder if he has any managerial ability at all.
How many people would welcome back CP and OKG back with open arms right now?

I really don't think Jimmy is going to last here very long.

What a great 9 months or so since the Cal clusterfuck we've had. What a tim to be a Dawg!

I think what everyone’s problem is that your lives don’t suck as bad as mine. When everything else sucks soooo much more, this is just another small displeasure. So here are my tips to everyone.
1. Have a child out of wedlock with a crazy bitch (who is tiny and skinny at the time).
2. Get talked into moving in with said crazy bitch to “help raise our child while she attends school” which she never did.
3. Spend almost a yr in hell and separate after that.
4. Continue to bone crazy bitch while not together and get her pregnant.
5. Move back I together.
6. Continue to hate life and life decisions but continue to bone.
7. Get pregnant again with twins.
8. Realize you’re fucked either way.
9. Finally marry TOF after 12 yrs who is now twice the women she was at #1.
10. Give up on life and turn to HCH.
See, so in the bigger scheme of things udubs recruiting really isn’t that bad.
Chins up pups.
So really, please send me bleach and razors. You should all also consider killing yourselves. It’ll never get better and will only get worse. -

Petersen was the main draw for elite kids and their families and also the best recruiter/closer. Is this surprising to anyone?
I thought Lake could jeep it going. He blew it. Fire the university.
Someone posted about how this one class of diamonds shouldn't hurt the roster too bad as long as it's a one time thing. I agree, but there are two ways this could turn around before the damage starts:
1) A big 2020 season...this would help for sure but not seal anything in recruiting if these guys are really this bad at it. Plus there wont be a 2020 season.
2) Jimmy gets disgusted enough to clear out his staff and make some flash hires. This isn't happening either. He doesn't seem to have any contacts or pull to make big time hires.
TLDR...FUCK -
We’re putting a lot of stock into there even games played and us winning those games.

Literally 95% of this bored bought into the narrative that Petersen was a cancer to recruiting and didnt understand it despite the fact that our classes were getting better and better every year.

Ironically, the class we are likely to end up with this year (with an AA head coach, who was supposedly the recruiting juggernaut that Pete's stubbornness was holding back) is the absolute dictionary definition of what everyone thought "the Pete class" was
