I hate doing this for a giant conference and with programs that I don't know as well as the Pac-12 and with transfers. Here were are though! Seeing some Huskies actually in here is a good sign for improvement in 2025. You can easily make an argument to put Coleman and Boston on first team and Tacario, if he returns to 2023 form.

Comments
If our OL takes a step forward to being average to above average, Demond may end up 1st team. If Allar and a QB from fucking Illinois are the best this conference has to offer, that’s pretty weak.
It's wide open for Demond to be the best QB in the conference of one of the other younger guys with potential who are at Ohio State, Nebraska, Michigan, Oregon. You kind of have to put those guys 1 and 2 for now though.
Too bad this guy’s dad didn’t like it here.
when you have a chance to play home games at soldier field, you don’t pass it up
I actually didn't realize that guy was Olin's son until I was doing research for this. I think he was a low three star and out of region so I guess it's not that shocking he wasn't even brought up in recruiting at all when he was in high school. He has another son starting at OLB there too.
I remember my dad saying in the late-90s that supposedly Olin had told kids in Hawaii not to go to UW for unknown reasons. Any old timers remember any of that? I know Olin has a rep for being a super combative guy.
Seems like Lambo soured a lot of relationships back then. Not sure if that was why. Didn’t he badmouth Dillon to NFL scouts cause he was pissed at him for leaving?
