    Covid year?

    Eh he was a true frosh. That isn't a horrible stat line for your first college action.

    Savell is putting up those numbers in year 3
    Is this a whoosh?

    Outside of Egbuka it sure feels like it's been a long, bad run of shitty Washington prospects.

    Apparently I'm being whooshed. How is it possible his high school stats were that bad? Injured?

    His family believed the hype and he went down to IMG in Florida. He was actually playing with and against real talent. Turns out he isn't that good

    They sure as fuck lowered Anthony James after he dropped TA&M
    I like his size and think he will find a way to contribute, but James doesn’t make plays in any highlight video. That’s why he dropped. Big, strong kid tho.

    I see him putting on a lot of size and moving inside

    He's raw but he's massive with long arms and moves well

    So does this kid suck?

    Looks like Tarzan but I get the feeling this is more Mario star-chasing.

    Cough…Cyrus Moss…Cough

    JTT is going to be an Outland finalist next year.

    These awards seem to be getting sorted out more and more in the preseason so I don't disagree but I really don't see what's going to make JTT great at this point? And I'm not just doog hating. Egbuka is unbelievable and I thought that since the first time I saw him play at OSU. JTT mostly just looks like a guy, and a guy who peaked at 15.

    I actually have some admiration for them for considering UW as much publicly and as late as they did given Lake was the coach and JonDon/Gregory were their coordinators and for not staying in the Pac-12.

    Egbuka, is the only recent high profile player who has lived up to any hype. Wayne got totally exposed going to IMG. JTT basketball highlights didn’t excite me and I didn’t see an explosive athlete. Most players need to stay home especially if your talking Power 5. I always tell them the story of good friend Larry Stevens going to Michigan he went there as a safety/WR he ran one route and they switched him to D-Emd and put 50lns on him

    It would be interesting to look at the in state 4 and 5 stars over the last 10-15 years, where they went to school, and their relative success

    I've started research like this about 10x the past couple years then always try to remind myself I'm not getting paid for it and don't follow through. From my vague memory the vast majority of guys who get into the NFL from the state of Washington are guys who went to UW or even WSU over going out of state - though there's probably a percentage thing you would have to figure out to make that fair.

    It feels like there was a good run of big time instate recruits from the mid-2000s to mid-2010s who panned out, and most spurned UW - thinking Taylor Mays, Jonathan Stewart, Stephen Schilling, Josh Garnett, Myles Jack, Jake Locker, ASJ, Budda Baker, David DeCastro. It's really seemed to tail off in the past five years or so though.
