When someone actually "crowns" him for anything, including recruiting, you'll have a valid point. You can't seem to tell the difference between assessing a recruit's film and seeing positives, in spite of a low star rating, and "crowning" the coaching staff.Tequilla said:Another “diamond in the rough” lowly rated recruit

Can’t wait to see DeBoer getting crowned for this one
It's not an either/or choice between cliche sarcasm ("another diamond in the rough" or "stole another mtn west recruit") and crowning the coach for getting commits that Oregon or USC didnt offer. There's plenty of ground in between. Realdawg and Dan Raley, and a lot of dm.com posters, have a hard time finding that ground too. They're just coming from the opposite side as you. -
Pretty sure he is the armband world record holder

His measurables say he has a fighting chance
I haven’t watched his film because I typically don’t until they sign
My point is that if you look at the ratings he’s outside the Top 100 and has a circa 85 composite rating
If we’re being honest statistically this is the type of recruit that isn’t successful in a P5 program and usually transfers out to a G5 or eats up a scholarship until he gets his degree
There’s a decent number of players in this class that fall into this bucket …
We’ll know more obviously in a few years
Let’s just be objective about what is transpiring -
He's getting some low hanging fruit. They could turn out to be Sark-like or Petersen-like. I'd rather see more consensus 4* guys and less low hanging fruit too. I just don't like to comment about individuals until I've at least seen some highlights.Tequilla said:

I thunk most here are pretty objective. What I see transoiring is that there is a pretty broad tier of recruit that is simply out of UWs market eight now and it doesn't matter where they're from. The staff is casting a wide net and scouring for the few blue chips out there who will give UW an earnest look. Seems to me they're doing a good job of that. If the big inside LB recruit, Jackson I think, and the safety (Sanford?) commit I'll be fairly impressed with who they've gotten given the handicaps. Still some work to do but this class looks solid for the first full cycle. -
Seems there's a star OL there in C/O 2025, so maybe there's that, too.chuck said:

To be clear I don’t criticize recruits personally … if you’re getting a UW offer and you know that that could be out punting your coverage so to speak … I don’t blame anybody for taking that offerchuck said:

I’m critical of taking low hanging fruit for a number of reasons
I agree with the areas that UW has shortfalls … it needs to be addressed
I also agree that I see the staff working hard … but it’s also why the low hanging fruit is frustrating -

This kid is one of the first 20 OL they offered this class, and he's not a project they found in November after striking out the earlier part of the year.
It's worth adding that Shepard was the coach who found him. He then connected him with Huff. -
This message board is teeming with fruits.

We started to suck after leveling up. I’ll take evaluation over some bullshit rankings. There are elite guys and then everyone else.
The class would be ranked much higher if it had Huard and Smalls in if. Both those guys are average starters, and that’s best case scenario.
I also went back and looked at in state recruiting the past five years. The talent is pretty bad. The fence is overrated, although elite guys like JT and Egbuka need to be at UW. There are not many guys doing much from the state.
These aren’t diamond in the rough prospects. We don’t have many of those. Most of these guys have been targeted for awhile. They may not be highly ranked but they aren’t Portland State and Montana type prospects either. The class seems like a typical UW class and ranked in the 20’s.
If DeBoer can coach, we will win. If he can’t, we won’t. Nothing has changed with Franny or with UW. -
Maybe we could use some Montana level players...RoadDawg55 said:

The writing has been on the wall for Huard. He hasn’t beat out Morris and the Apple Cup was the worst either QB played all year.
