Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Imagine being a WA kid and thinking "Nah I wanna just go take a bag in Eugene" after watching this

Like the Seattle kid who just went in the first round after playing at Oregon? How fucking drunk are you on a Tuesday morning to be pimping a fucking HYPE VIDEO as shade on Oregon? JFC. Oregon got 20 fucking Emmy nominations for Ducks Vs Them.
The Seattle kid that will always be remembered for crying like a pussy in our stadium 2 years ago?
That last sentence you wrote...holy fuck. 🤣👍
Holy fucking shit you're dumb. You just poasted a "go to UW" video. Like…kill yourself dumb.
It's actually former and current NFL players from our state that are saying that they're glad they played at UW instead of a being a fat bitch whose dad demanded immediate starting snaps at LT so he could cry like a loser wearing eggshell uniforms.
It's no Ducks vs They/Them but I thought it was worth sharing here.
Ducks versus they them
Gold Jerry
LOCAL EMMY SUPREMACY!!!!!!!! I really can't believe someone just used local Emmys as a measuring stick. I actually only know they exist because the company I work for gets nominated and wins them because they're bullshit pay to play who cares nonsense kind of like 18-minute fake Hard Knocks episodes with bored kids listening to Lanning quote Wedding Crashers or some shit. The cinematic recap against Oregon from 2023 won a local Emmy by the way and I only know that because said BS from company where I work was also nominated.
Even most Ducks have kept quiet on the Conerly front because you took a guy who was the #1 OT in his class and top 10 player overall and barely got him snuck into the first round as the seventh OL drafted in the worst draft class in history in a year where teams have never needed OL more.
DTD staying on brand
I think kids now and parents are so fucked out I question how much these things make a difference but it at least needs to be highlighted like this, good that they are trying and this is well done. As I get older I also feel the extra importance of why it would make sense to stay home unless it's like Willingham coaching. Your connection to some random college town somewhere else you're at for 3-4 years is really going to fade and won't it be nice when you end up in the area that on 6-7 Saturdays you can go to the biggest stadium in the region and feel at home?
Especially with the Seahawks regressing into mediocrity it really feels like UW football has gotten back a bigger piece of the pie in city/state's culture.
Gee Scott and Conerly’s dad should make out with DTD. And cry. And feel shame. And cry.
video would have been exponentially better without reffett in it. Go to Washington and you too can develop major CTE, flame out in the nfl, and be the online punching bag for an entire fanbase!
This is actually a great point. On top of being just a doog with terrible takes on Twitter he isn't inline with the level of player who is featured in this video and should be featured. I'd rather have Jerramy Stevens. At least he was a first round draft pick.
Academis smack talk > > > > > Emmy smack talk
He and that open mic standup duck guy should do a tough man competition…both wearing jorts.
Conerly comes from an extremely tough background and was living out of his car at times. I believe NIL opened up when he was deciding where to go and Phil Knight offered him the biggest bags. My source told me he wanted to go to Washington until NIL and now with the House settlement, the money would be pretty much equal so the future Conerly would likely go to Washington.
Case in point: an Oregon friend had no answer when I asked, "When the money is equal, why would a recruit go to Oregon over UW? UW has every other advantage from location, education, alumni network, etc etc. etc."
Substance > Style
You have to be fair to an extent too. Washington was in a very bad place when Conerly had to make his decision after going 4-8, firing Jimmy, and then hiring DeBoer. Orygun had their issues but was coming off a 10-win season and had stacked TBS classes, unlike Jimmy who would barely even sign guys.
Now with all the recent stuff isn't a slam dunk either.
-Oregon does a better job of promoting and hyping their players
-They've gone hard on at least saying that Lanning won't leave almost no matter what, something UW can't really say with Jedd
-A lot of it is fueled by the portal but they've developed a recent track record of generating draft picks (something they actually didnt' do well in the 2010s)
-They've been more stable than UW post-Petersen and haven't fallen off, twice, like UW. Part of that fuels selling that you're joining a stacked roster, not one trying to be rebuilt after four years of coaches who didn't recruit
-Kids I still think like the stupid jersey shit and now we're getting loser parents who are probably in infantilized generations who dont' think it's stupid now
Overall, if you're local, UW is the choice but it's smarter to see what you're competing against and not just dismiss it.
99% of Kids dgaf about any of those things you listed. They care about who has the better coaches, who wins more, who sends more to the nfl, and who has the better facilities.
You’re in for a rude awakening if you think fisch is going to start recruiting at Oregon’s level due to the house settlement.
Conerly's dad demanded instant starting snaps which is what he said to some husky fans on X.
and unfortunately when you're talking about 17/18 year old kids who now get pampered now from the age of 7 because they can play so style might actually be more appealing than substance, and it's not like most of UW's competitors can't just sell both.
It's why this video just focuses on the football careers and NFL careers of local guys and not how you UW can get you an in to the mailroom at Weyerhaeuser like it's the 80s.
Washington under Jedd and beyond needs to get guys like the one bankrolling the basketball program for some reason to buck up, produce more draft picks next year, and win. That's mostly it. I think Jedd does have a legit thing of being able to get NFL coaches and brass on the phone real easy to sell his NFL stuff, but that's only gonna work so long and so much.
He’ll croot better because uw will be better than last year and Oregon will be worse than last year.
