    Does UW have a spot for another edge guy?

    Maybe it's time for #46 to seek other opportunities.

    I’d fucking hope they learned from their mistakes with Butler and just a talented player now, worry about numbers later
    Yep. I'd like to think there were other factors at play with Butler. That's a really stupid mistake if they actually wanted him and actually didn't think they'd have room.
    There's no way they made that mistake. I don't buy it. Definitely factors at play that we're unaware of. If there weren't rumors that he was leaning towards us or whatever, we wouldn't be talking about it anymore. Curious where those rumors came from anyway. If it was from Dawgman or Discord, those rumors should be taken with a salt mine. Especially if it came from Fleenor. These people are throwing whatever shitty crack they have to the addicts. Whether it ends up being true or not is irrelevant to them. They're either getting paid to keep the addicts on the hook or they get off on addicts hanging on their every word in a sadistic display of self-importance. Honor is dead. DEAD.
    How is Fleenor remotely considered an insider? When's the last scoop he broke that wasn't already on Twitter?
    Oh he certainly plays dress-up. From the Discord, paraphrasing slightly, "Brett McMurphy texted me saying Michigan and UW are playing in the Rose Bowl". That and other comments along those exact lines. I called it out, he immediately cried and threatened to take his ball and go home, one thing led to another, and now I can no longer access the Discord. Fleenor did start saving me $8 a month though; I'll give him that. If that's even his real name. Dude is a charlatan.
    I'm embarrassed to admit I also pay $8 for the Discord VIP tier but I plan on cancelling as soon as this season and recruiting cycle winds down. While it had a promising start, the mods particularly Izzo, have gradually transformed into Kim Jr. I do commend them in being able to garner equal or better sources than Dawgman in such a short time but the censoring of any critiques about the program and the fellating of the coaches is very DM-esque. All season they've hyped up an amazing portal haul to make up for the lackluster HS recruiting but it turns out they vastly overpromised and underdelivered. Any posters pointing this out are labeled as insane and threatened to get banned.
    You realize the portal cycle isn't even close to finished right?
    This is true. But people have been exaggerating how big of an impact this was going to be on the program. It's been underwhelming thus far on who has signed if you are trying to be a top 12 program next season. The second wave will happen but with classes starting right after break for some schools that can become more complicated.

    Missed on all the top safeties they wanted/needed.

    Missed on the corner they pursued.

    Missed on a lot of defensive linemen and now the bj green situation (would be a nice snag) is getting a little weird.

    No running back (maybe DJ returns and it doesn't matter?)

    No WR (not as concerned here but Brazell would have been a nice get)

    The reality is the top guys we really wanted went to other schools. In many cases also went to Oregon and USC. Same as high school recruiting.
    I've actually been pleasantly impressed with our portal pickups. The OL guy looks like he'll come in and challenge for starting time right away, if we figure Green's school shit out, he's a great pickup. Even the LB from Vandy is a multi-year starter and should be a quality backup to Bruener and Tupatala. Sounds like we are going hard after a couple WRs.
    Who are they still pursuing as a wr? Brazzel was the only one I was aware of. I didn't really want merriwether personally but I know he visited.
    Mayweather to cal, too high.
    No one that comes out of Evergreen/Union/Camas is worth it for division I football. Pretty much Jesuit in Portland or don't bother with this area.

    West Linn has some dudes but in general you are not wrong. Portland / Vancouver football is underwhelming. The skill guys always seem soft.

    Who did Oregon get that we wanted?

    Ramsey and Marks sure.
    Savage visited UW, no?


    Glad we whiffed if that's the case. Fat, short, and has tackling issues.
    Myles Bryant was 5'8" and the best safety we've had since 2019 and ticking. Ben he was playing out of position. We have not had an above average safety since. Many were below average. He didn't have tackling issues though. No idea if the KSU guy was good or not other than we targeted him and missed.
    He has the most missed tackles in the big 12 over the last 2 seasons.

    Link? Or is your reading comprehension just really that poor if this is what you’re referring to

    I mean, Elijah Molden was better. Like, way better.

    If we’re tallying up other above-average safeties since 2019, there’s Don Hampton (who’s been terrific this year), Bookie Radley-Hiles. I’d say Alex Cook was pretty decent when healthy.
    Molden was primarily a nickel. I think he played safety for a game in 2020 vs Stanford. Radley played nickel his entire year here I believe.

    Bryant played nickel and converted to safety his senior year and was way better than Hampton or cook ever were. There is a reason he has lasted in the nfl as a 5'8" player in the secondary.

    Point was not about how great Bryant was. He was good not great. We just have had avg to subpar safety play since.

    I've never understood why coachable, athletic talent can't come from any high school in the world. Is there something in the water in Vancouver and Lake Washington HS? Chris Izbicki was the last Kang football hope and we saw where hope got us. As a Kang peer and acquaintance who smoked mad bud with his older brother, Tyrone should have listened to my input before offering that idiot a scholly.

    At WR this is your target
    https://247sports.com/Player/Jeremiah-Hunter-46055162/

    Enjoyed watching him in a couple of games. Cal losing Hunter and gaining Merriweather is a net negative.

    On3 has him rated a lot higher than the other guys. Fuck the owner of on3 for calling texASS winning by 14+.

    https://www.on3.com/transfer-portal/industry/football/2024/?position=wr

    There’s something to be said about playing in a shit offense, with a shit scheme, a shit qb, and shit lineman. Maybe purple shades but I think this guy punches above his weight class at udub.

    I dont think 247 has he or Watson ranked yet as a transfer. Hunter should for sure be a 4* transfer based on his production this year

They're either getting paid to keep the addicts on the hook or they get off on addicts hanging on their every word in a sadistic display of self-importance. Honor is dead. DEAD.
    How is Fleenor remotely considered an insider? When's the last scoop he broke that wasn't already on Twitter?
    Oh he certainly plays dress-up. From the Discord, paraphrasing slightly, "Brett McMurphy texted me saying Michigan and UW are playing in the Rose Bowl". That and other comments along those exact lines. I called it out, he immediately cried and threatened to take his ball and go home, one thing led to another, and now I can no longer access the Discord. Fleenor did start saving me $8 a month though; I'll give him that. If that's even his real name. Dude is a charlatan.
    I'm embarrassed to admit I also pay $8 for the Discord VIP tier but I plan on cancelling as soon as this season and recruiting cycle winds down. While it had a promising start, the mods particularly Izzo, have gradually transformed into Kim Jr. I do commend them in being able to garner equal or better sources than Dawgman in such a short time but the censoring of any critiques about the program and the fellating of the coaches is very DM-esque. All season they've hyped up an amazing portal haul to make up for the lackluster HS recruiting but it turns out they vastly overpromised and underdelivered. Any posters pointing this out are labeled as insane and threatened to get banned.
    You realize the portal cycle isn't even close to finished right?
    This is true. But people have been exaggerating how big of an impact this was going to be on the program. It's been underwhelming thus far on who has signed if you are trying to be a top 12 program next season. The second wave will happen but with classes starting right after break for some schools that can become more complicated.

    Missed on all the top safeties they wanted/needed.

    Missed on the corner they pursued.

    Missed on a lot of defensive linemen and now the bj green situation (would be a nice snag) is getting a little weird.

    No running back (maybe DJ returns and it doesn't matter?)

    No WR (not as concerned here but Brazell would have been a nice get)

    The reality is the top guys we really wanted went to other schools. In many cases also went to Oregon and USC. Same as high school recruiting.
    I've actually been pleasantly impressed with our portal pickups. The OL guy looks like he'll come in and challenge for starting time right away, if we figure Green's school shit out, he's a great pickup. Even the LB from Vandy is a multi-year starter and should be a quality backup to Bruener and Tupatala. Sounds like we are going hard after a couple WRs.
    Who are they still pursuing as a wr? Brazzel was the only one I was aware of. I didn't really want merriwether personally but I know he visited.
    Mayweather to cal, too high.
    No one that comes out of Evergreen/Union/Camas is worth it for division I football. Pretty much Jesuit in Portland or don't bother with this area.
    I've never understood why coachable, athletic talent can't come from any high school in the world. Is there something in the water in Vancouver and Lake Washington HS? Chris Izbicki was the last Kang football hope and we saw where hope got us. As a Kang peer and acquaintance who smoked mad bud with his older brother, Tyrone should have listened to my input before offering that idiot a scholly.
    North of Portland/Columbia River hasn't been sons of tough papermill workers who will smash your face in for a long time.

    If they are good, like Kirkland, they go play at Jesuit instead.

    Does UW have a spot for another edge guy?

    Maybe it's time for #46 to seek other opportunities.

    I’d fucking hope they learned from their mistakes with Butler and just a talented player now, worry about numbers later
    Yep. I'd like to think there were other factors at play with Butler. That's a really stupid mistake if they actually wanted him and actually didn't think they'd have room.
    There's no way they made that mistake. I don't buy it. Definitely factors at play that we're unaware of. If there weren't rumors that he was leaning towards us or whatever, we wouldn't be talking about it anymore. Curious where those rumors came from anyway.

    It's also possible that growing up in a cloud of pulp mill emissions stunts mental and physical development. I'm going to roll with that until proven otherwise.

    Hunter is really solid. Good size, made plays in a shitty offense with a terrible QB. He had a really nice game against UCLA. Not at all upset about adding him

    So they’re looking at Will Roger’s throwing the ball to Hunter, Jackson, Bernard, Boston, Williams and Reynolds as non true freshman receivers next year. That’s okay. Feels like they need another major threat in that group unless I’m not high enough on the young guys.

    I’m really hoping we get McMillan back.

    Seems like with the injury this year and just how deep this receiver draft class is he’d set himself up really well to jump a round or two by coming back. I do think Hunter and Bernard make a very good 1-2 combo though if he leaves, just need one of those other guys to step up as the third receiver and we’d be fine.
