Kid is a baller. Really fast twitch. Would be a great DB for us, but could also play slot WR. I really like him as a DB, tho. -
not OKG
-
Doesn’t look like he’s even trying and he moves really well. I like him a lot.

Go on...Gwad said:not OKG

Looks a legit slot. I like that he may be a decent return man. If he can return punts I hope we offer

lubick running point on this?

Visited yesterday
Also Wiltfong CB'd him to UW. I really like him, I would take him as an athlete and test him at WR & CB. -

I really like him and I hope we offer soon. Add him to the list of head scratchers when it comes to offering in-state kids. The longer this tactic lasts the more confusing it gets for me.
-
how the fuck isn't this kid offered yet?
-
I think the issue with this kid is two-fold:
1) We have convinced ourselves that in-state players suck unless they are basically DDY3s.
2) It's not really clear where he fits. He doesn't look like the kind of corners we use... he's like either a slot defender or slot receiver. -
He's like a DDY 2.8.
I know that's not really a thing, but he's a much more athletic version of Aaron Fuller and about 3 feet taller than Myles Bryant, so I'm not sure what the downside is here.
In my mind you give the in-state kids a very slight bump up on the recruiting board. By definition they're more likely to commit, so why expend 3X the energy getting essentially the same kid from California. The recruiting model should always be to use the PNW to get about a half a dozen layups, and fill the remainder of the class from other parts of the west coast. If we put together 5 straight NY6/playoff appearances, then maybe we can start being more selective and radically altering our tried and true recruiting strategy. -
It would be huge if a kid from Union/Camas got a UW offer. First time I think.
-
I basically agree with this, though I think he's a very solid 2. His frame is not that big, but I agree he's way better than Myles Bryant and Aaron Fuller.Woof said:He's like a DDY 2.8.

I think we are going to end up taking 4-5 DBs this year and I could easily see him as one of those guys (or possibly a slot guy on O).
I also agree that ties have to go to in-state players.
This kid, Fabiculanan, Criddell, Asa Turner (who may end up at SAM anyway)... these are all guys I think we will do really well with. -
I think he's a cornerback, and he's the same height and weight as Criddell and Chris Steele so I don't necessarily buy he's a slot cornerback. But it's also an incredibly deep year for 6'1"/6'2" cornerbacks on the West Coast. Deep to the point where every Pac-12 team is going to be dooging or quooking or cuoging about whom they get.Dennis_DeYoung said:I think the issue with this kid is two-fold:

In-state players are definitely a quandary that the staff has to figure outDennis_DeYoung said:

You and I have similar but slightly nuanced differences of opinions here -

Excuse me good sir, but Chase was a Mountain View student who transferred to Union (as is the fad to do in the couve)haie said:It would be huge if a kid from Union/Camas got a UW offer. First time I think.
Speaking of Mountain View.. QB Ben Huebschman?? The 4A POY for WA in about 03 maybe 04 I'm not sure. Was a Huskies QB who did nothing. -

Plus I’m talking specifically about Union/Camas territory. Not Mt View/Evergreen.
-
Ok well like I said Chase is from Mt. View territory and his parents decided to splurge and spend the extra 300$ a month in apartment rent to move 4 blocks east.
As far as Huebschman, all I remember was he was the tits when I was a kid and playing two hand touch on the track during games. Then he had multiple plaques in the school when I was student so I assumed he was a scholly level guy. -

4 CB's to Oregon, and he's going to their Spring game this weekend, seems like he might commit. I'd be dissapointed, I really like Chase
