You didn't write anything that comes close to refuting what I said. You cited speculation by Okie St fans and his resume. Where is the evidence that anyone above UW in the portal recruiting rankings even pursued him?PostGameOrangeSlices said:
You're off base on Muhammed and Johnson. Muhammed was a Big-12 all-conference CB, there are about 5 schools total that wouldn't want him on the roster.chuck said:

Big dick boosters probably had to pay a lot to keep penix, odunze, McMillan, trice and maybe fautanu. Adding Muhammad and DJ was probably not cheap either. This is more of a rebuild year so hopefully we sign more of the Muhammad's of the world on defense along with a qb.chuck said:

It's not the coordinator
Some HCs never have good defenses. I hope not, but it's possible/probable that Deboer is one of those HCs. It obviously doesn't mean he can't win in spite of it, but it would/will prevent him from ever being a truly dominant team
No worries. UW has yet to be in serious contention for highly sought after defensive players in the portal. About half of the board swears that the portal is going to fix it though.
Problem with the portal is there are limited players with the blue bloods all pursuing them so it's not a safe bet at all. Our entire defense is likely void of difference makers next year as it stands. Maybe trice returns and reverts to his old form somehow.
Maybe I'm off base here, but I don't think Muhammed, Penix, or Johnson were real hot commodities in the portal. UW wasn't bidding against blue bloods for any of them.
If the portal is to be the savior year after years as so many seem convinced of, then UW is going to have to raise the bar, just as much with it as with HS recruiting.
UW reached out to him with a bag, apparently, or he contacted UW? Either way Okie State message boards were saying he was getting 50k lump sum to transfer plus an undisclosed amount per game he started.
Johnson also had a ton of options in the portal.
Who knows with Penix, apparently he shut down communication with other programs when his old mentor DeBoer reached out. But he was coming off 3 straight injuries and had warranted concerns about being a glass cannon. Officially, UCF was his only other offer listed. -

I asked for evidence that teams with real recruiting pull pursued anyone UW has signed. I'm speculating that the answer is no, and you guys disagreeing aren't providing anything substantive to refute that. I didn't say there were no other teams interested. I didn't say those guys came free of charge, just that UW wasn't going against the likes of USC or Oregon or Georgia for them.AtomicDawg said:

If UW is such a heavy hitter in the portal, why was Goforth the best and only LB brought in? Why no big time DT? Where are the impact guys at positions sorely lacking them? Muhammad was a great grab but only one CB after last year's performance? Nobody at safety when UWs best safety is pretty soft and frequently injured?
Don't you think the coaches wish they could have upgraded those positions a little further? It's no sure thing the portal is going to save you every year. Skill positions should be pretty easy for UW. I'm concerned about defensive players. -
I think there's something to needing to sell playing time to both recruits and portals. If you just go full mercenary you'll never have a recruiting class worth anything. Banks was good at the start of the year and Powell has come along nicely as well.chuck said:

Banks was good for sure, but the dude hasn't held up at all. That shit is going to happen. That's why you have to recruit the best HS players AND be able to supplement with the portal.Canadawg said:

I think Deboer is doing more with less. The offensive talent is uncommonly good, but the defense is bad. He wants better players and to be a complete team. I'd bet anything. -
If DeBoer is the coach we think he is, he’ll restock the shelves with better products than what he currently has.
I’d he’s not, he won’t. -
Who said uw was a heavy hitter? Three of the guys last year that they go had options. Obviously the rest were projects.chuck said:

Johnson especially was arguably the best rb available in the portal. Cuevas had plenty of options as a sought after tight end.
