Still, it's FREE PUBDoogles said:This would be the most unexpected signing of all time. Probably using the official as an excuse to see his family in the area for free.

Who has been showing the most interest lately?
Washington. They are far out but they are showing me a lot of love. I talk to them all the time. LSU is right down the street. Ohio State. A lot of people don't know that Ohio State is recruiting me real hard. All of them really are coming hard though.
What is it about those West Coast schools that have your attention?
It's just something to look at. Why not? I have to explore my options. I have family in Portland, Oregon so it's not like I don't know anybody. I just want to see it all and see something different.Washington (4-1)
Lawrence visited Washington days after The Opening and enjoyed his time there. The good news about the Huskies is that they are the ones showing the most interest, Lawrence told Lopez. The interest is making Lawrence overlook the fact that the school is so far from home.
"They are far out, but they are showing me a lot of love. I talk to them all the time," said Lawrence, who would be the top-ranked player in Washington's 2016 class if he committed. Washington has 12 commits and is in need of a defensive tackle pledge.
Lawrence is being recruited to Washington by defensive coordinator Pete Kwiatkowski. -
"I just want to see it all and see something different."
The writing is on the wall. It doesn't hurt to try, but a kid from Louisiana isn't turning down the home town school or real title contenders for a middle tier team with nothing except hope of turning into a contender. -
I want this kid to commit to Washington just so DDY is proven wrong.

And I get that we're not national title contenders right now ...
But is it THAT hard to see a scenario where in the next 2-3 years that we're not a national title contender?
I want to see how this season plays out. I want to see if the defense can be as good as I think that they can be. I want to see how much Browning progresses between now and the end of the year.
I'm actually very interested in this Saturday's game and the game against Cal. I'm really starting to feel very bullish and doogish about this team. -
It's more unlikely that we aren't contending than we are. I think we are moving in the right direction, but contending for titles is something completely different. Nobody but Husky fans believe contending is imminent. And of course you are bullish and doogish about this team.Tequilla said:

I guess my point is that I like us to be in a position of being at worst in the Stanford role of competing with Oregon in the North within 2-3 years max. Win the North and you have a good chance to win the PAC. Win the PAC and you are most likely in the Top 4 at selection time.
There have been plenty of other programs that have come from comparable positions in the last 5-10 years to get into the national discussion. I realize many have PTSD from all of the false hopes that have crushed in the past.
But to use an often quoted and now cliché phrase, why not us? -
The North is likely reshuffling because both Oregon and Stanford lost better HCs and we upgraded but we are still a couple years behind the Zeros but I believe we will surpass Stanford and close the gap on Oregon very soon. I'm still very bullish on Coach Pete but if the O doesn't show improvent similar to the D from last year as the season progresses I will be worried he doesn't can Smith after the year unless we see major improvment. If Peterman can't turn us around...I don't even want to process failure.

Husky Football is dead and buried forever under the manboobs of its former coach.
