    Anyone know where we would be in the rankings if we kept mells, jones, tafiti, and morrison?

    I don't think we would've offered Roberts if Mells didn't decommit. But if I add Jones, Tafiti, Morrison, and Nabou to the class the score increases to 195. That would put UW at 24th nationally and 2nd in the Pac 12.

    Ektard with some news. He’s officially gone now.

    The question is do the coaches believe this shit they are feeding Scott or are they just covering their asses?

    I kind of think they actually believe it.

    Jimmy sucks at recruiting (or managing a staff of recruiters), water is wet.

    But also legit pull this kid’s offer. A true WDWHA with all this bullshit.

    No.

    We do want him.

    Coaches need to nut up and get him signed.
    No one kid is bigger than the program. I’m all for the “whatever it takes” to get talented kids on the team. But you gotta draw the line somewhere.

    If a commit is publicly rubbing our coaches’ face in it, and clearly enjoying taunting our fans or whatever you call what he’s doing, then adios.

    You think nick saban would put up with this shit?

    Unfortunately, because Jimmy can’t close anyone else, losing Roberts is a way bigger deal than it should be.
    For Ben Roberts?

    No.

    For the best DT Bama can get? Absofuckinglutely.

    Roberts is the best DT UW can realistically get this cycle. This isn't even serious drama but you deal with serious drama if you need to to get the talent.

    Welcome to big tim football.







    (I mean for Saban. Not for us.)

    This is reminiscent of Smalls. Nike doing us dirty. Maybe the heart (his entire high school) wins out like with Savell. Doesn’t look good. Whatevs.

    Landing those names and having a reasonable, edge of the Top 20 class if you can also close Conerly and at least one high 4 star (a guy like Kani) you maybe shouldn't seems so reasonable but now seems impossible. Hell, I think Willingham and staff could have pulled it off and Sark easily. This is getting out of control.

    Adding in Conerly and replacing TJ Hall with Jahlil Florence brings the class score up to 213 pts and 13th in the country. That's right within the range of CP's last few classes and none of the names are completely unrealistic for UW to pull. Too bad Jimmy and his staff suck ass at recruiting.
