Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Woodinville's own Andre Dillard

Redshirt freshman for the Cougs came in at half and played left tackle for the Cougs. He played very well.

    He chose WSU over offers from Idaho, Portland State and Eastern Washington. He started the second half after Dahl's back up almost got Falk killed in the first half. For a third string guy he looked good. He starts next year.

    Leech praised him after the game. The kid played really well. He's going to do nothing but improve. Glad he's a Cuog.

    We're proud of him. For the record, @MikeMonan hoped he would be a Husky, but things didn't quite work out.

    so... we never offered? ... and we're surprised we suck?

    Yes Coach Peterson was going to offer him but since they were late to be hired, Andre had already accepted the offer by wsu.

    How does he look in comparison to our freshmen tackles, Adams, James, and McGary?

    Peterman didn't receive authorization to begin recruiting him while he was coach at Boise?

    Sark didn't have him locked up?... Woody didn't hold the recruiting class and prospects for a new coach during coach turnover?

    Seriously. Stop apologizing for this shitshow. We fucked up and let a future All-Pac player... from the neighborhood, no less... get away.

    André has had two good games, he will get bigger, stronger and better. I am impressed by him, and very happy to have him playing for my cuogs. Also coach leech has praised him following both games he's played in this year.

    Everybody should be proud of the kid. He's doing great and by all accounts is a first rate kid.

    "Washington"... collectively, blew it.

    Had Peterman been on him at Boise, he would have had a legit chance to sign Andre when he came to Woodinville with an 'enhanced' offer, over a Boise offer he should have already had in hand, rather than an intro. Peterman, in addition to Sark(therefore by extension, Woody) fucked up.

    Sounds to me, Mike had his back no matter what the kid wanted... as a good HS coach should... but, by the time Peterman came calling, the Pirate Ship had already plundered the Village.
