    Newport? We're better off without those limp-wristed losers.

    Maybe this Throckmorton kid will turn into a nice OL ... but let's be honest, he's a middle of the pack OL (by rankings) that Sark would have ended up defaulting into at the end after he whiffed on all of the other top OL he made late runs at after remembering that you need to recruit the OL.

    Even better IMO that Oregon is taking these kind of middle of the pack OL so early in the recruiting process ... Helfrich is no Chip Kelly.

    It's a shame Petersen let Throckmorton get away. I had talked to a former UW assistant while on the Sarkisian coaching staff and he assured me he was going to get him and every other recruit they were going after.

    I'm not saying Petersen can't recruit with the big boys so don't go twisting. Just said he hasn't proven he can recruit on this stage yet. I mean look at Dan Hawkins for an example.




















    My silence on Urban Myer speaks volumes though.

    Meh....kind of sounds like bias. Oregon, Michigan and Miami offered an in-state OL and we didn't get him. Oregon also got the other OL too who had a few good offers. I'm not worried about Oregon but I'd be worried about losing in-state lineman.

    This. If Sark didn't get this guy a lot would be crying over it and bashing Sark. This doesn't change my opinion of Peterman at all, but the wdwha shit is stupid. It's never okay to lose an in state lineman with those offers.
