That's some trash film, I don't care how big and mobile he is. You cannot really coach effort/ motor and I see none. His film last year was better but to be honest not much better.

Yes. Watch the kids film. It is absolute trash. -
Pete is going to pull the scholarship of a guy he offered before his junior year. Yes.dumpsterchair said:

Is this a serious post? Only way your offer gets pulled is if you pull a Nick Bolton and flirt with other schools after being committed. This staff doesn’t just pull offers because of what a kids YouTube video looks like against some shit Washington high school football program.dumpsterchair said:This will surely bring a torrent of hate but I am predicting if this kid has a few more games like he has had the last few weeks he is going to get his offer pulled.

I’m sure the coaches are drooling over the high motor high energy unathletic 5’11 200 lb left tackle out of Arlington high school because he looks super good on “film”.
LOL

Also, remember that Kalepo is playing for perhaps one of the worst and most undisciplined coaching staffs in Washington State HS football. Beach has had terrible coaching for decades and it's not just going to change all of a sudden because they are getting better athletes in their program now. That staff is trash and they have no clue how to coach.CuntWaffle said:

HS film is how kids are evaluated. Period. Kids get offered all the time on film alone, no in-person visit. To believe otherwise reveals ignorance of the process. This kid is marginal at best. Compare his film with other 4 stars around the country. Hell, three stars for that matter. He may project well but the kid plays like an eighth grader right now.
Please, enlighten me on what you have gleaned from your evaluation of the kid. -
Tell me the last person that Pete pulled a scholarship from that he offered before his junior season and then we can talk. His ceiling is what matters to the coaches.dumpsterchair said:HS film is how kids are evaluated. Period. Kids get offered all the time on film alone, no in-person visit.

He's a RARE athlete on the OL that doesn't come along often in the state of WA. Who cares if his technique and play style are rough now... he still has a year and a half of high school to develop plus at least 2 years of getting coached up at UW before he even sees the field. Be patient

Name one time Petersen has EVER pulled a scholarship offer other than the kid was talking/visited another school after being committed? You do realize that a part of Petersen’s rules of commits not visiting or talking to anyone else is that his offer has to be 100% guaranteed right? -

Projection and ceiling are nice but with a plethora of kids who have both high ceilings and are wiping floors every Friday night why bother with a kid who is so meh?

You're on crack if you think there's any other OL in the state with as remotely a high a ceiling as Kalepodumpsterchair said:Projection and ceiling are nice but with a plethora of kids who have both high ceilings and are wiping floors every Friday night why bother with a kid who is so meh?

Dude, why would UW stay completely in state anymore? They can recruit nationwide and at the very least west of the Mississippi. That is such a lame reason to recruit a mediocre athlete.NEsnake12 said:

Again, waiting on someones evaluation of this kid. I don't care how many stars he has. -
Actually the more I think about it, Kalepo is a lot like Camilo Eifler. Athletically rare, raw and needs coaching, but you know they'll be big time with some patience. Also, both are the self anointed doog alpha's on twitter for their respective recruiting classes

No one here cares about stars, agreed.dumpsterchair said:

What part of his hudl should I watch? The 29 second clip against ECHS? The 43 Seconds vs Madison? another game? -
You have proven my point. The only reason why people are salivating over this kid is because of hype, no substance. Look around on Hudl, there are kids as big/athletic/mobile or more so out there, even in the NW, who would smash this kid. "Well, he's in-state." Who cares?CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:

No one is really trying to sell you Kalepo. Most are simply attacking the statement you said you think his offer will get pulled when there is 0 history of Petersen’s recruiting that support the claim he pulls offers because he does not think the kid is good anymore. If you meant to say you think he SHOULD get his offer pulled then that’s completely different because that is just your opinion.

Wasn't that the dig on his uncle, Danny Shelton - his HS tape was trash, he took plays/games off, etc.?dumpsterchair said:This will surely bring a torrent of hate but I am predicting if this kid has a few more games like he has had the last few weeks he is going to get his offer pulled.

Danny turned out ju-u-u-ust fine. -
First time for everything and I'd venture to say Pete has never been this close to smelling a Natty and that will trump any sense of loyalty to a kid or concern over optics. I've had the pleasure of briefly speaking with the man twice, once at BSU and once at UW. He's a nice guy, but all business.CuntWaffle said:No one is really trying to sell you Kalepo.

I am not saying it will 100% get pulled, I am saying that if his season continues to roll the way it has, I am not sure how they don't pull the offer and I am betting they would. Kid needs to kick it into high gear. All the stars and FSP training in the world cannot save you on Friday nights when the pads come on. -
Lots of good points made by all but I'm going to need to hear from @BallzDeep on whether Kalepo projects as a DE or a Big Back in his opinion.

Didn’t the staff have him at their camp where they could evaluate him against rising seniors and other talented juniors? If so, they would have had at least an opportunity to evaluate him under their own conditions. He still has more than a year to grow before he’s close to enrolling at UW (assuming winter quarter’19 at the earliest).
I do think Pete’s trying to win that Natty and is all bidness. No doubt. I don’t think he’ll comprise his values or process to get there though. -

I believe Dumpster that Kalepo sucks. I also think it doesn't really matter.
Kalepo is huge. He has the talent. He's probably lazy and he gets shitty coaching at Beach.
I saw Zach Banner play in high school. He let a 5'11" 215 pound DE beat him for multiple sacks.
Banner ended up pretty good. He probably would have been really good if he played for UW or another program that wouldn't allow him to weigh 400 pounds. -
WTF are you talking about?dumpsterchair said:Projection and ceiling are nice but with a plethora of kids who have both high ceilings and are wiping floors every Friday night why bother with a kid who is so meh?
I recommend you leave the recruiting to Pete here -
Oh well why didn't you say that earlier? I'll just sit down now because you recommended it. I guess at your recommendation this whole board should sit down. Because I've never heard anyone here talk trash about other Peterson recruits like Sirmon. Got it.Tequilla said:

Hey guys, let's go ahead and shut the whole board down. Tequila said so.
Still waiting for anyone to tell me why this kid is so great other than "Peterson said so." If that is the mentality of most on this board, what a boring place.
