    Are we just gonna load up on every fucking 3-star available! Fuck man. Martin and Malik-McClain still haven't taken their visits yet. This kid's max bench press is 215 lbs. Another raw long-term project who needs years in the weight room to build strength whereas Martin and Abdul can help us right fucking now. They've slow played him so long I thought he was a back up plan. Other offers were fucking Cal and Vanderbilt. We haven't gotten a legit commitment from a sure fire stud since fucking Victor Curne! I'm starting to get pissed.

    You know we have like a 20% shot max with those guys, yet you get mad we take a backup plan. We can still take one of those guys, taking 2 is just too unrealistic. We're losing enough players on DL where if we get a better BUCK prospect, it would be helpful having a developmental prospect like Zion.

    Zion would have waited as long as he needed to while the other two guys made their decisions. His other top choices were Cal and Vanderbilt. The point of taking a back up plan is to take him after the plan A guys commit elsewhere.
    Maybe the better word would be that Zion is a hedge for some other guys. He can end up on DL or BUCK. We aren't hitting on all of McClain, Martin, Togiai, Tremblay, and Taimani. That's just unrealistic. Of course I wish we were in the position where Zion wouldn't even have to be in the picture, but that's just not the case.

    Taimani, but that's a given.

    The kid is big. He's someone that could look lean at 300 like Levi.

    Taimani, but that's a given.

    And I’m sure that will cause a shitstorm somehow too

    UW offered Zion well before most of the other OLBs on their board. He wasn’t a backup plan.

    Backup plans are guys like Mosiah Liu or any of the guys that get offered in January like Cole Norgaard and Ali Gaye last year. Guys who only get offers after too many main targets are off the bored.
    Stop fucking dooging. He didn't have a commitable offer for a long time or else he would have committed a long time ago. They needed to see more from him his Senior season. If you don't have a commitable offer until after your Senior season you are a back up plan.
    Petersen isn’t Taggart or Harbaugh. He makes UW one of the 5 most selective offers, up there with Stanford and Northwestern.

    If he offers a kid early then he wants them. He’s not being cute and playing wait and see.

    Obviously we want the best players possible for UW, but you’re being a complete slave to TBS rankings by freaking out this much
    No I'm not. I fucking love Curne and Hampton and most of the other "3-stars" we have committed. I hate a bunch of "4-stars" committed elsewhere and think they suck. I don't think Zion is trash but he's a project that will need two maybe three years in the weight room before he is even competitive in practice. We need impact guys as edge rushers or D-lineman. Not fucking projects that may never pan out i.e. Bryce Sterk. I expected better this class.

    Petersen was super excited about Sterk. Praised him because of his size and track speed. Blah blah blah he was wrong.
