Per Roof, he's 6'5 270 rather than the 6'2.5 255 reported on his 247 profile that was made...today

This kinda feels like the Chip Kelly-I-hate-recruiting-so-we-will-take-any-player-as-long-as-I-dont-have-to-do-fucking-anything approach. Definitely got me intrigued.
And how would the optics look if Jimmy pulled the offer to this local kid? Gee Scott would go crazy. -
Besides BNB suggesting that people misread what he posted, this just isn’t the modus operandi of Jimmy Lake.insinceredawg said:Not sure where he saw this but Dawg101 on BDTW posted that sonics says Lake offered this kid out of frustration/panic because Schuster got cold feed about committing today. If this is true it's a HUGE red flag about Lake. The lack of discipline and desperation of this move does not bode well to how he'll perform as an in game coach.
During his time at UW Lake went down to the wire with multiple recruits who were wavering back and forth. Byron, Julius, Asa.... when guys wavered or got cold feet, he didn’t just move on to another kid. He landed his prospects.
It’s also not the case with Malloe. He stayed on Tuli, Taki, Bandes, and Tui until they were in the boat.
I don’t have a fucking clue what is happening this recruiting season, but I can’t with good faith say that Lake or Malloe would just jump ship on JTT or Schuster because they aren’t sure if they will commit to UW or not over the next 6-8 months. -
Don’t get me wrong...this is weird...but if we are taking him as a project OG at 6’4” 270 I’m ok with that. OL out west blows and we struck out with the best out-of-state ones, so if we are getting him and Prentice and calling it good that isn’t horrible.
If we are taking him over Schuster in June that seems nuts. -
The kid has a damn good tape. I can see him @ SAM, OG, TE. Maybe I'm becoming a Doog but add another explosive athlete to the commit list. JV and shit league players, but still.

This is the only reasonable logic to take this kid in June. If we're recruiting this kid as a TE or DL then that means we're throwing in the towel on our bigger targets.HoustonHusky said:Don’t get me wrong...this is weird...but if we are taking him as a project OG at 6’4” 270 I’m ok with that.

Jimmy did a great job scooping this kid up before Eastern Washington or Portland State offered him a preferred walk-on spot.Baseman said:The kid has a damn good tape. I can see him @ SAM, OG, TE.

Sounds like they think he'll be up near 300 by the time he's at UW. Could very easily be moved to O lineBaseman said:The kid has a damn good tape. I can see him @ SAM, OG, TE. Maybe I'm becoming a Doog but add another explosive athlete to the commit list. JV and shit league players, but still.
