By what measure would you call recruiting Gaskin, McGrew/Pleasant, and Wedington/(Ahmed?) in the past 3 cycles a negative?Baseman said:
RB recruiting.Gladstone said:RB: - ?

RB recruiting was only ever a concern a couple years ago when Coleman and Dotson were the lone RB recruits in the 13/14 classes. It's definitely improved. -
The "-" is for the current trend and quality of RB recruit committed.
Gaskin was in the first class, three years next signing day? Pleasant likely never plays RB - too slow, or is a non-factor. McGrew is 5'5 and I'm hearing he may be a slot. I like Ahmed a lot as a RB (what the fuck do I know tho) but the fags that follow recruiting say he ends up at DB. He hasn't committed yet and historically players that visit another school just before they announce usually pick the other school. Peterman makes a big deal recruits need to take an official visit and bring their parents before committing. Ahmed, apparently, never took an official visit. Weddington: is listed as a two-way athlete. (Hi J) is he a RB? Is he a DB?
Knees get torn. Legs get broken. If Gaskin gets hurt on Saturday, who steps in? Dotson? Coleman? Can UW win the confrence if that happens? How about next year when Qualls, Jones, Victor, and Baker leave? Will that defense be good enough to win with the lack of quality depth at RB?
Are you sick of the "they're young, they need more time" excuse yet?
A lot of ?'s and a big area of concern IMO. UW is not exactly brimming with all-confrence level OL or quality OL commits in the pipeline to open holes for slow prodding backs either. They're having a hard enough time opening holes for Gaskin against JV DL. -
Gregor Strasser (31 May 1892 – 30 June 1934) was a prominent German Nazi official and politician.
Born in 1892 in Bavaria, Strasser served in World War I in an artillery regiment, rising to the rank of first lieutenant. He joined the Nazi Party (NSDAP) in 1920 and quickly became an influential and important figure. He took part in the abortive putsch in Munich in 1923 and was imprisoned, but released early on for political reasons.
Strasser joined a revived NSDAP in 1925 and once again established himself as a powerful and dominant member, hugely increasing the party's membership and reputation in northern Germany. Personal and political conflicts with Adolf Hitler led to his death in 1934 during the Night of the Long Knives.

Is anyone surprised Babushka can't recruit?
Has he put QB's in the NFL?
Have his offenses been good?
Is he a charismatic guy?
He's a fucking geek who from all appearances has no social skills and has a shitty coaching track record. -

I think I got it.
Very good recruiting:
DL
LB
DB
TE
WR (just recently)
Middling:
RB (depends on the year)
QB (will be better if Sirmon actually signs)
Shit:
OL (the most important group there is to recruit well)
The positive view would be that hey, the D recruiting is great, and we finally turned WRs around.
The negative view would be we are reaching for Choice D QBs two years in a row but that doesn't matter because we have never recruited anyone to block for them anyway.
Guess I'll LIPO for the 20th year in a row. I'm no recruitnik but I do admit to dooging a bit about many of our recent defensive recruits. We seem to have that shit on lock. But the WR's until this year, reaches at QB, and fucking disaster at recruiting OL pisses me off. -

It's actually that they need to visit (officially or unofficially before committing), Ahmed has probably visited over a dozen times.Baseman said:The "-" is for the current trend and quality of RB recruit committed.

Lots of hypotheticals in your argument of why pulling in three (possibly four) 4* RBs in 3 years = shitty recruitingBaseman said:The "-" is for the current trend and quality of RB recruit committed.

If UW really cared about football, they'd make UW a better academic institution than Stanford, so we don't keep losing great OL players to them.Passion said:
Pete may not give a fuck about rankings, but to Swaye's point he surely gives a fuck about Foster Sarrell - hence the heli ride to his high school game. We are struggling to get decent OL verbals this year, and right now it looks like Foster is headed to 'furd.dnc said:
A few thoughtsSwaye said:Pulling a huge loser maneuver and responding to this early. Just went to doogfarm to check Ektards rankings. Per that, Pete is looking decent, great DB recruiting (like always thanks Lake), great DT, good WR/TE and ATH spread, and then craptastic QB/OL recruiting. In state results look good now but will look like crap if we get Bryant and keep Wedington, but will look like shit if we lose either of them and Sarell, Ahmed, and Bainavulva go elsewhere.
Anyway this is too much bullshit. Class still doesn't seem as good as when we had no hype and no ranking. WTF?
1. UW has had a top 10 ranking for like two weeks, not sure it's reasonable to expect massive impact from that already.
2. Peterman does not give a fuck about recruiting rankings, so even in the unlikely event UW is in the top 10 all year and finishes in the top 10, I'm not sure it will make a huge difference at UW like it would have under, say, Sark, who wanted all the highly rated guys he could get.
3. Recruiting lag theory says the 2015 season has a bigger impact on Feb 2017 class than 2016 season. Assuming that theory holds true (and it seems fairly accurate) the REAL impact of this season (whatever that might be) won't be felt until the next recruiting class.
