    I also think it’s easy to look at 247 and see these guys and get upset weren’t not offering but we don’t know the real story. Petersen does his homework. There’s a reason. The recruiting has improved every season and with that the # of guys entering the league will only increase. We’re talking 10 next year.

    Agreed. Well said.

    If that’s not enough to convince some kid to attend UW over USC/Oregon then they’re not worth the time to begin with.

    Doogism.
    Have any of you actually had conversations with said kids? I have. Oregon knows what they want to hear and they eat it up. You mean I can smoke weed and play Xbox in the locker room and wear cool uniforms and get Jordan’s SIGN ME UP! That’s why I mean. Petersen isn’t going to play that game so why waste the time? Do I think he could lighten up a bit and have more fun with it? Yes. Absolutely. I think we started to see that a bit this past class. I just believe It’s a lost cause wasting resources on “talent” that thinks so short term. Coach Pete agrees with me. And clearly programs like Oregon and USC either 1) don’t tell them the entire truth or 2) are banking on their god given talent and will deal with the other issues in the future. The risk is massive underachievement and attrition.

    I’m sorry but I like the Will Dissly’s in the program. They create the culture and expection. Treshawns don’t.

    I like Budda Bakers also!

    Why can’t we have both?

    Idk, taking a risk with 1-2 should not be that bad. I rather have insanity talented kid that is little fucked up in the head than players like kyler manu, John turner, Michael Neal

    I expect DDY to come in guns blazing in 3, 2, 1 to learn y'all....some of the takes in this thread are extremely naive and borderline racist.
