    I just watched his highlights for this season so far...holy fuck! To move like he does at that size is simply amazing. I honestly felt bad for the kids he's tackling. They just get rag dolled. Please let UW get this kid.

    Honestly, I can't even think of who I would compare him to. He's going to be a Rashaan Gary level recruit. Could be the #1 player in the country or close to it. Guys that big and that good don't come along often.

    I don't know who I'd say is the biggest D recruit EVER out of the state. Probably Taylor Mays?

    So, uh...he gone then?
    Why anyone would turn down Pete at this point is a mystery to me. It would take real stupidity in my opinion.

    Here's what you get at UW:

    1) Top notch player development: you will become your best.
    2) Top notch life shit: you will become the best person you can be so when you blow out your knee you aren't fucked.
    3) A coach that actually GsAF about his players: this is the thing that separates us from Bama and tOSU. If you aren't great there, you are getting thrown out like trash; Pete doesn't work that way.
    4) A university that offers a great education if you GAF.

    So, if you go to UW you are maximizing the chances you'll play in the NFL, maximizing the chances that the coaching staff will put tons of effort into your life irrespective of outcome and you can get a degree that, while not ELITE, is respected and what you can learn at UW will change your life.

    Seriously, why would anyone go anywhere else? The only answer is kids are stupid and don't understand.

    To be clear, I've never felt this way before about UW... but under Pete, it's legit the best option.
    It would be huge if we outbid Bama for this guy.

    Finally watched his video. Didn't want to get to amped about a freshman. Now I wish I hadn't.

    We simply don't grow kids like this in the Seattle area. Getting him would be mammoth. Losing him would cause a relapse in my meth addiction.

    Everyone will want him...bad.


    That’s good cuz he’s a sophomore.

    We have 2 years to recruit him, just like Foozy. Which worked out well for us.

    Except when Foozy was in 8th grade we? sucked. When Smalls was a freshman we? made the playoff.
