Another hit to our off-season Natty chances - Fox Sports Edition
Comments

Question for the old timers (sorry for redundancy as I know this was touched on is some other thread weeks or months ago): What were the rankings on some of our overall best recruiting classes in the pre-internet TBS world, like back when we had the Husky Hunters? The elite national championship players -e.g., NFL linemen from WA - are right in our own backyard; we just need to quit having failure to communicate with these kids. And if they want that Stanford education instead of a perfectly legit public ivy one, then we need to have out DL give them a beating.

Disagree. I don't see why Petersen wouldn't be able to cash in on top 15/10 recruiting classes consistently if the program continues to win. Besides LA, Seattle (fuck off boobs) is probably the best market to be in on the west coast and there is plenty of talent on this side of the country to compete with everyone else.huskyfavre said:
I dont disagree with this, however outside of Don James, "we" just aren't a program that is going to get the top national recruits or Top 10 recruiting classes here in the far reaches of the country, though I agree they need to improve and we must be top 15. However, this year is a prove-it year for the system, IMHO. Our offense should improve drastically, and if the D can hold serve through player development, "we" will have all the tools and track record to start pulling in better classes. The kids that are now in high school don't remember Owen 12 but they sure do remember 7-6 7-6 7-6 7-6GiantOnMontlake said:Regardless of how many early departures we have, I think the article and the analysts are correct in saying Washington is not (yet) at the same level (and level of depth) as the top programs contending for national championships. I know Coach Pete and many others groan about recruiting rankings, but of the last 15 national champions - all of them - they've had Top 10 recruiting years in multiple years. Clemson won a championship because they are doing some elite recruiting as of late. Oregon has been an anomaly with historically lower recruiting rankings, and likely shallower depth. They got steam-rolled by Ohio State because they were bigger, better, and definitely deeper than the Zeroes. If we truly want to contend for NC's we're going to need multiple years of Top 10 or maybe we can get by with Top 15 recruiting classes. My two cents.
The key thing is to continue to win and the recruiting will sort itself out (thanks captain obvious). I see some top 10 classes in the future if it continues. Now consistent top 10/5 classes is different story and will need some nattys in order to do that.
Even in the summertime.
But Sailgating is auce!!!! -

You see in most other places you get more than 10 Sunny Days where the temp exceeds 80 degrees. -

Obviously you don't know about this thing called "climate change". We had like 40 to 50 days over 80 degrees last year. It's gonna be like Palm Springs North up here before we know it, except we'll have all the water we need. And if we start running a little low, we can dam up a pretty mountain valley in the Cascades.salemcoog said:

If we keep winning I agree with C___Waffle that the recruiting will figure itself out. But I am still watching to see if Coach Pete and staff CAN recruit with the big boys.. or at least give The Condoms a run for their money! There's definitely enough recruits on the West Coast and I noticed this staff can dip into Texas as well.
The comment on Seattle's weather... DawgShit!! This is not 1977 where a sign on the I-5 said "Last person to leave, please turn-off the lights". We're in the 21st Century now Seattle is in super high demand. Coach Pete mentioned its a great city for everyone, including student-athletes. We need to sell that up rather than cowering about the rain! -
