Check out his HUDL
The top video is 3 minutes of his highlights from Eastside Catholic's opening three games of 2017, but it only takes the first half-dozen or so clips to see enough.
Rogers is every bit the prospect of Sav'ell Smalls and Geirean Hatchett. That's not to downgrade either, but DJ also is a potential 5-star national prospect. Kid was born to play tight end. Great frame - could him see easily carrying 255 by his senior year of high school. Willing blocker. Catches the ball effortlessly. Can run through tacklers or make them miss. MUST GET FOR UW.

Shouldn't be too hard to sell him on "Hey come be like Hunter Bryant and get 800 yards 10 TDs as a junior and get drafted in the first round".
He even goes to the same school that Beast did.
Gonna be a long climb to that next half of a national championship.
If Washington offers and the kid commits then the feeling is that Washington has to honor it - not like the whole concept of non-comittable offers that many other schools play with.
Sure fire talents will get offers.
The issue is the perception of who is a no-duh offer... And if Washington is giving the competition too much if a head start by taking too long to vet a prospect before offering.

For me, idgaf that much anymore because the program is run by high-end coaches and adults so it's going to work out anyways. Whether recruits come from in-state or from Nepal it's gonna work out.
As it is now, we are probably 4 years away from having a team without serious, glaring holes from recruiting.
And also you stupid fuck, NO ONE GIVES A FUCK WHERE THE RECRUITS COME FROM YOU MORON...
The issue (AS ALWAYS) is expected value of an offer. Go back to fucking Dawgman with this 'coach trusting' and 'I don't care where the recruits come from' fucking bullshit. Anyone who says they don't care where recruits come from re: in-state recruits is a fucking moron. That's one thing I've learned for certain over the past 25 years of following UW recruiting.
Fucking Christ. DIAF.
