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

Foster Sarell, we got a shot with him?

    “There are definitely probably some similar situations with that last recruitment between Stanford and UW,” Sarell said of the battle for Garnett, adding that he hears the pitch to stay home from just about everyone locally. “Everybody is always talking about keeping guys in state, stay at home and play for the home crowd.”

    As for this Stanford-Washington game, it won’t do much to sway Sarell’s thoughts about either program.

    “I don’t know if there’s anything I can get out of the game,” Sarell said. “I understand both programs really well -- where they’re headed and what they’re doing. Both teams are great.”

    ESPN just had an article about him where he said "the UW/Stanford game outcome didn't mean fuckin' shit to me, bro"(paraphrasing)

    if that really is the case, I guess there wasn't really anything pete could have done.
    Yah, except have a better recruiter as your OL coach.
    sure. would have helped. but the best recruiting tool is supposed to be on field success, and he clearly doesn't give a shit about it in this case

    He's got to be a special kind of loser if he wants to join Stanford after watching that game

    Recruiting lag theory says this game was never going to mean anything for 2017 recruits. These kids have mostly made up their minds, or have narrowed it down past simply on field results. Winning or losing that game is not going to sway many kids for this year.

    It probably made a big impression for next year though.

    Sorrell is going to kick ass at Stanford and everyone who WDWHA'd him is going to look fucking stupid, as always.

    Most of the people WDWHAing (like myself) are doing so ironically and out of spite for the whole stupid recruiting process. So there, or something.

    He is definitely going to Stanford. Garnett is in his head. Garnett had every reason at the time to leave Sark and now he has every reason to recruit Sarell. I don't know anything about Sarell other than his age so while he doesn't represent the population as a whole, best guess is he does not value loyalty the way the older people giving him advice do. Odds are he values going off and doing your own thing just like Josh Garnett.

    If he goes to Stanford he will be the next Trevor Guyton, which is fine, that is his choice. In five years when he whines in the Seattle Times about he left town and never beat the Huskies I will laugh. He'll still play in the NFL whichever school he chooses so it's really about the other factors.

    Some kids just have it pre determined they are going out of state for college. It's cool to travel far away where your from to play sports. It's pretty retarded but getting away from WA is some kids priority.
