Jimmy and Huff dropped the basket of apples and Boner and Huff weren’t able to salvage a single one. Agbo had a false start that cost Texas a FG today too. Narboe was starting for aTm until he got hurt earlier in the year. Not a single one.
The state of Washington must be better at producing OL than any other position and rather impressive on the national scale. It's never ok to have a bad OL when it's the one position they can stay home with and win
Not having Ioane hurts the most. He committed pretty early and he might be the best of the bunch. From what I remember, he quietly Decommitted and then quietly committed to Penn State and it seemed odd they were even recruiting out here. Seems like a lot of those schools stopped btw.
Conerly seemed very interested in UW until Jimmy tanked the program. Then it seemed like he wanted to go to Michigan (which would have made sense), then it seemed like USC was used to drive up Oregon's price. I don't blame someone for tanking their interest during Jimmy and can't say that Oregon isn't working out this year, but still 1-3 against UW.
Iuli it seemed like there was never much connection and UW had the Jimmy turmoil then hired a new coach and he looked like he was in really bad shape so no one seemed to care.
I'm not whining, telling it like it is. UW needs more money if it wants to get back to the playoffs.
You make demands yet as far as I can tell, you don't do anything to make anything happen. Are you a member of Montlake Futures? Do you have Tyee tickets?
There are a lot of people in here who have given thousands and thousands of dollars over the past 30-40 years. What has it gotten them? The sporadic and fortunate set of bounces that occasionally got UW in the top 5. But most of it has gone to shit. Until the UW administration decides that football is an important aspect of the overall university's function (not holding my breath), why pour thousands and thousands more into the program. It will just be wasted, like it always has.
Outside of 2021, UW had a good run from the decade of Chris Petersen through Kalen DeBoer and despite the steaming pile DeBoer left after the NC game, UW still did ok and things are pointed in the right direction with Fisch's recruiting.
And I think it is misplaced anger to blame upper campus for DeBoer leaving. Once Alabama came calling, he was going to leave no matter what.
Long story short, I poasted something not long ago UW really fucked up building around what looks like a legit run of instant lineman at a time where it looks like top instate talent has fallen off. Especially since other than Conerly none of them were guys who I assume big schools were throwing bags at we couldn't match. But I don't know. It seemed like someone poisoned the well locally against UW like 20 years ago and it's never consistently recovered and everyone wants to "put on for Seattle" somewhere else and be forgotten, or at best, hated.

it’s a miracle we played in the natty last year after his two year failure as HC with shit recruiting.

We probably win the National Title if there was the proper amount of depth on the roster from those classes
Connerly was going to go to UW until Phil Knight bought him. Sad but true.
Send your $$ to the NIL fund
I've heard that coaching matters
But just give Fisch some time money and an easy schedule and a few other things and 2026 could be special
Exactly. That is why DeBoner is flacid without Grub (or Penix).
Don't be stupid

proof?
Someone who knows him / his family.
And one report has him getting paid $385,000 this year.
So what?
Is no one at montlake familiar with the concept of a counter offer or negotiating?
You should donate $385,000 to help them counter, or better yet, how about helping UW find a massive donor?
How about you quit whining and making excuses and we'll see
Build a fence around it.

And the song remains the same.
