Resetting expectations

that fucking sucks...sonics1993 said:When Pete stepped down and Jimmy took over I knew we were losing our best recruiter on the staff but thought Jimmy was good enough to maintain the standard of top 15 classes like we have done the last three years. But as we sit here today, six months away from signing day, with no official visits likely this upcoming year, I think it's clear that we are going to take a step or two back for the 2021 class. I originally thought in the winter that with the 2021 in state class being as loaded as it was, that we would finish in the 10-15 range. But then the spring came and it was clear that we were struggling on the recruiting trail and had no momentum and I stated it. That led a certain administrator on dawgman calling me negative and making baseless accusations about how I hate the coaches but I was fine with it because I knew it was the truth. I also expected the class to turn around in the fall when visits were allowed and expected us to close strong and thought a top 25 class was reachable. Well no official visits are likely this year, it's iffy on if football will be played and it's pretty clear that this class is going to be more similar to the 2014/2015 than the last three classes meaning we are going to have to depend on the coaches evaluation and coaching skills because other than Sam there is no can't miss guy in this recruiting class. Right now I expect this class to have one high end guy in Sam, a couple low end four star and the rest filled with three star recruits. I'm disappointed in our recruiting and wish we didn't throw away one the best in state classes Washington has ever had but we did.

So the coaches aren’t geniuses?

So no go on Emeka and JTT?

Logically speaking it looks good for UW. Both recruits have strong relationships with there position coaches and both families prefer UW but until I see Jimmy close someone, I won't get my hopes up for either guy.bananasnblondes said:So no go on Emeka and JTT?

They never got there visits like they were expecting but that's on them for assuming they would so I would have to say no.Mooser42 said:So the coaches aren’t geniuses?

Is the "woof" you woofed the other day actually happening and was it who people thought it was?

Happening on Sunday. The woof wasn't for Berry who I knew was committing because I don't think it was a big pick up. I knew Finau was getting offered but didn't know he would commit on the spot.bananasnblondes said:Is the "woof" you woofed the other day actually happening and was it who people thought it was?
