    I'm an idiot and can't figure out how to post the Twatter shit. But the kid just posted that he flipped. Sounds like Arizona DWHA...

    I Ricky McCoy announce my big flip from Az to The Univeristy of Washington, great staff and program and great opportunities

    Instant analysis from PDF. This is why I pay $10.95 a month!

    Ricky McCoy seems like a kid that could do well with a RS year. Great size, 6-4, 270. I'm not sure he can add much more size, but he can certainly hit the weights and get stronger, tone up, depending on where he's going. If he's a nose, he can add weight to the gut, create low center of gravity.

    Nothing real special on film, but nothing bad either. Has good speed, primarily bull rushes the OL. Has good coordination and is comfortable in his frame. Reacts how you'd want a DL to react, quick and with precision, not slow and sloppy, like he hit a growth spurt and his brain hasn't caught up with his size.

    Not sure of the level of competition, but he did make his way into the back field pretty easily most of the time. Aggressive. Is a guy that won't stop fighting until someone with the ball is on the ground or the ball is in his hands (high motor).

    Overall, a good pickup. Good to have depth on the DL. A RS year should be expected and will help him learn more technique and create a more college type frame.

    It all starts in the trenches ...

    Could see this one coming back in September when he opened back up and had a lot of nice things to say about why he was looking at Washington.

    Also, hard to not notice that a constant theme in kids that are jumping on the OKG wagon about how the coaching/program infrastructure is a major factor in their decision. I seem to recall a banana obsessed individual questioning whether the "built for life" philosophy (read OKG) would work at a high level.
