Taking A Look At The Incoming Transfer Class

Thanks Taft!

I'd like to note he forgot JT Tuimoloau and Emeka Egbuka

I think Cuevas is going to make an impact early. He's built like the Jimmy Graham era of TE...you could put him out wide in a bunch formation and do some interesting things. In today's modern TE = Jumbo WR he fits this mold well.
Really wanted a long threat at RB like Keaton Mitchell but I'm actually pleased about the Ngata addition. I think he can be shifty when he needs to be but gets yards you expect.
Germie Bernard - Will be in Top 4 of WR rotation next year. He's going to thrive in the KD/Grubb offense
Ralen Goforth - Brings the right attitude to the LB corps. If we can make strides at LB next year we've got a chance to be a really solid D.
I think the UW made themselves better. Portal guys all have more than a single season of eligibility beyond Goforth. -
Durfee's going to be a beast at EDGE before he leaves and Muhammad is probably the most important transfer we have coming in.DawgDaze71 said:I think Cuevas is going to make an impact early.

It's a great portal haul and it's not done yet. -
Goforth has 2 years.

Great… so he’s built like a sculpted Greek god but he’ll be so soft he’ll never break a tackleAtomicDawg said:

Does he really? I didn’t realize that. I like that pick up even more now. I thought he was one and donebackthepack said:Goforth has 2 years.

He has 2 to play 1. He appeared in 12 games as a freshman in 2019, gets a Covid year for 2020, then played in 21 and 22. He only has one year left unless he redshirts next year, which he won’t unless he gets hurt.backthepack said:Goforth has 2 years.
-
Only played in five games in 2020 and got hurt in one of them. Might have a case for an injury redshirt.

Right, but that year already doesn’t count, so I don’t see how he gets a 5th yearHillsboroDuck said:Only played in five games in 2020 and got hurt in one of them. Might have a case for an injury redshirt.

Because some players played double digit games that year and still got an extra year.EsophagealFeces said:

Chinteresting. That would be really weird if he got 2 extra years of eligibility off the Rona season. I wouldn't complain. That would be great if we got 2 years of him. Worst case, he's solid depth at a position we're shockingly thin at.HillsboroDuck said:

wouldn’t be that hard to imagine LB being next years DB if a couple guys get hurt

We only have 3 LB on the roster who played in 2022: Ulofoshio, Tuputala, BruenerWilburHooksHands said:wouldn’t be that hard to imagine LB being next years DB if a couple guys get hurt
Demario King should be healthy for 2023, Goforth is transferring in, and Bryant and Whitney are freshmen.
I could see another portal or two to provide actual depth since LB is prone to injuries and durability issues after a full season -
Agree. PWOs are currently running third string. That’s too close to starting.WilburHooksHands said:wouldn’t be that hard to imagine LB being next years DB if a couple guys get hurt

Hartineaux or whatever his name is should be a good LBwhatshouldicareabout said:

I think the two incoming freshmen are both just what we're asking for...smallish, fast, athletic guys who can chase down plays and lay the lumber and also run with guys coming out of the backfield.
They would help the rotation and upgrade the speed out there, but there's no excuse for relying on that with the portal out there. Go get at least one more, please.
I still like Ulo but counting on him being fully healthy or as athletic as he was before all the injuries isn't a sound strategy. Bruener is a good, instinctive hit man and I love him, but he's stiff and slow like Tupetala. These guys are OK, but the room needs more speed and more depth. -

Hartineaux was a 4 star or high 3 star from Seattle that originally committed to Wisconsin and then switched to UW. Looked solid.
Ulo is going to be fine. He blocked the punt in our bowl game and will likely be our best linebacker next year if the injuries do not linger. -
I don’t think there is any reason to suggest he will be good. Not saying he is done, don’t twist. He has not shown up on special teams or any where to suggest he is waiting in the wings. The staff hasn’t been moving him up the Depth or anything.PostGameOrangeSlices said:chuck said:

Ulo made a couple of plays that really jumped out but was a non factor for the most part. I'll believe he's fully back to prime form physically when I see it.PostGameOrangeSlices said:chuck said:

Seems like a lot of offenses, UW's included, have figured out how to pull LBs into coverage on just above every play, which they are bad at and essentially takes them out of the game and makes them disappear. I feel like if you look around the conference at sacks and TFLs for true linbackers, they were way down this year. I think it's also why you're seeing such higher yards per-carry, because offenses use their scheme to pull the LBs back and then run and most college LBs suck at tackling a RB in the open field.
Wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing more 210 pound LBs who can cover. -

Another Kris Moll type would be perfect. If they can't find the right fit, it wouldn't be the end of the world if DeMario King and Austin Hartineaux were the #5 and #6 LBs if it meant preserving the redshirts of Bryant and Whitney.chuck said:

That's another way to say it. I feel like it's more intense than that this year though. I feel like I don't even see the LBs in a lot of games like they're not there.backthepack said:

Also, overall with the transfers. I feel like we've seen a couple doubles and some nice singles. I was hoping with what the program showed this year we'd see a home run or a triple - think Jordan Addison to USC, but maybe that's expecting too much.
Maybe also expecting to much but am holding out hopes for one of the recent five stars who left the state to come back. -
I think you have Harnetauix confused with someone else. He was barely a three star who didn't receive a scholly offer from any P5 schools. He'll be a second year walk-on next year.PostGameOrangeSlices said:chuck said:
