    Coleman would be an upgrade at RB, IMO. Even though DJ was a dawg.

    Coleman is awesome. Didn't have a ton of carries last year (100+ less than DJ) but was an absolute stud

    It's all so fucked, imagine you're Fifita, you're a god on campus everyone loves you, Zona sorority strange throwing themselves your way, coach and system you believe in, primed for a season that will make you a Legend for all-time.

    And now because your coach was poached your foundation is completely rocked and uncertain.

    The new addition of players to the offseason musical chairs act isn't good for the sport in any capacity. Somebody is going to get caught holding the bag, fan engagement will plummet outside of like 20 schools.
    Yep, it’s not fair to do that to the players and tends violate the in loco parentis duty of colleges and universities.

    I suppose this the world if they want to get paid but I’m sure there’s a better way than this.

    You can’t crush fan bases off the field every year.

    It reeks of corruption and that is a fail for the game.
    There’s a video of Fisch circulating where he said he’d like to see each team in the NFL fund 2 college teams and run it like a minor league system…and make that “college football.” He thinks it would solve a lot of problems with transfer portal/NIL, etc. They’d be employees but also student-athletes. Never heard that before but an interesting theory.

    UW already has a big advantage in getting Fifita and TMAC beyond just Fisch and Carroll and that’s all the other big programs already have a QB or already bought one in the portal. And they’ll want to play together

    Yeah, I think the biggest threat to us is them staying at Arizona. It sounds like Arizona is trying to make a HC hire that will keep those two

    I think the only hire they realistically could have made that would have done that was Carroll and that’s out. Or Nansen would would be hilarious. They don’t really have the cash to make a splash otherwise but we’ll see

    He’s going to be so disappointed with the strange in Montlake.
    100%. UW sorority 9's are 6's at U of A.
    pics or we'll never believe it.

    Bummer about Davis' injury.

    I could see a thunder and lightning combo of this guy and Tybo: https://247sports.com/PlayerInstitution/jonah-coleman-at-arizona-281173/CurrentTransferInstitutionPredictions/

    Except for their hometown-ish school. Fifita would be qb1 at usc the day he steps foot on campus. That’s going to be the biggest competition for them

    Miller Moss would beg to differ and USC just got another QB in the portal.

    Usc doesn’t want to roll with miller moss if they don’t have to. They pursued multiple portal qbs to be qb1 after the holiday bowl—and whiffed on all of them

    I completely agree with this. Not enjoying any of the "UW buying players from Arizona" stuff that's going on, but I understand that's how it works right now and you gotta do it to survive. Some actual, binding rules need to get established very soon on this. You can't have 24/7/365 free agency - this is all unsustainable. We're basically going to be cheering for the Arizona Wildcats in UW jerseys by the time this process is all said and done. I'm not going to remain a mega fan in the future if something doesn't change with the structure of the portal.

    Retweeting a ton of negative Fisch posts.
