    Hopefully the Kaufman connection continues to pay dividends. Just following Camilo, he seems like a guy who actively recruits for the program. His experience year 1 with Petersen can go a long way with the Washington's rep in the bay.

    I'm not sure what Camilo's expectations are for a successful season year 1. Would a redshirt year be a failure in his eyes? Victor and Bierra are locked in as starters, BBK showed promise, Poto'oe looks like a for sure starter at Buck, and guys like Wooshing improved and got solid experience.

    If player development continues like it has on the defensive side of the ball, it's not hard to think one of the many LBs to redshirt last year will be good.

    This seems like a good problem to have, but would hate to see him get mop up duty and special teams work and lose snaps to a guy like Manu and consider transferring.

    I don't think Eifler is going to redshirt. He was a big time recruit. He, Bartlett, and I assume Beavers will likely be battling it out at Sam. He's in the two deeps and on special teams. Bob Gregory told him the spot is open.

    BBK will back up Victor and Bierria unless one moves to Sam or Buck. I could see Bierria possibly going to Sam and I also think Victor could play Buck, especially if the others guys aren't ready. I know many don't agree because he's such a good ILB, but he's a big LB and his weakness is in coverage. The past two years, the coaches have taken the best athlete from the front 7 and put them there. If the trend continues, that is probably Victor. I like the thought of him attacking and fucking up QB's.

    An interesting thing to watch will be Warren, Manu, and Beavers. Like you said, the development on defense has been good, so one will probably be a lot better than we expect.
    TL, DR Summary:

    Regardless, it will be interesting
    You read it you bitch.
    When did I say that I didn't ... bitch???

    UW is the favorite my ass....... Clearly states that he has the closest relationship with Oregon. Strausser better get his calls up to this kid. Cause we ain't getting Sarrell or Wyatt Davis!

    I think Camilo is a good enough athlete to play as a frosh, but I feel like in the recruiting video, Gregory said Camilo was really raw. I interpreted that as he's got a lot to learn from a fundamentals perspective. Play or not, there's no bad outcome for Camilo in my mind.

    He started playing football as a soph or junior in high school. He could use a RS year and UW has the depth to allow him one.

    I hard a hard time pressing the 'WTF' button, Doogles, because I agree with the sentiment of your poast.

    But in my defense, you did mention Psalm Wooching as a possible impediment to Eifler seeing the field.
