Another name for list of underwhelming Huskees

Was going back through old classes before our recruiting pod and was shocked at how bad the 2001 class was. Has to be the worst when compared to expectations. It's basically Reggie Williams and a bunch of garbage. I remember the San Francisco JC trio of Taylor Barton, Kai Ellis and Tipoti was supposed to be this massive get and then all it ended up being was Ellis was like a 5.1/10 player. If I remember correctly, Ellis said he went to Washington because he fell in love with a girl he met on his recruiting trip to Seattle.

Doog legend extraordinaire Nathan Rhodes.
Also Donny Mateaki-anybody have that picture of him from high school? Looked like a 18 year old man child -
I remember showing people Mateaki's picture and being like this guy is going to be a monster and then he showed up and was a tweeter who wasn't really a DE or a DT and really just a Sione Potoa'e. The average fan had about 5% of the information on recruits we have now so the recruits got built up a lot more. Now all of of us weirdos on the TBS board would have been talking about how Mateaki wasn't a DT or a DE for years before he even enrolled.

Lifted next to him when there was only 1 weight room back in the day. One of the most shredded 275 lb guys I have ever seen.LongDukDong said:Doog legend extraordinaire Nathan Rhodes.

Mateaki was a five star Cameron Elisara

I always thought that Kim was truly sexually attracted to Donny by his effusive praise of Donny's physique. For awhile I actually believed he was going to become "an animal" on the D-line. (I hadn't figured out the DM bullshit yet).

Ellis was far from the Jevon Kearse type DE he as hyped to be, but he wasn’t bad. The rest of the SF guys were bad.WoolleyDoog said:Was going back through old classes before our recruiting pod and was shocked at how bad the 2001 class was.

Wasn’t 2001 considered a top 5-10 class. It’s the first one I remember getting that completely let us down. We really didn’t have any top 10ish classes again til the later Pete years and those have also let us down.
