I fucking love this kid! His film really pops out at you with impressive plays all the way through. He's white and a try-hard but super talented as well. Explosive first step, can bend the edge, great pursuit speed, desired size and length, and of coarse very heady and instinctual. I don't care that he's from Texas and TCU is right down the street. If we want to be elite somebody needs to close this fucking kid! He could play for us right now. Please just this one time can we land a stud Buck prospect.

No chance.

In other news, Kayvon eliminated us, but not Oregon.

Kayvon eliminated us months ago when he told Biggins that weather is a factor “because I’m a pass rusher and if it’s raining then they throw the ball less.”

He’s going to FSU or USC

Makes sense I guess. He knows what he wants.

To be underdeveloped and somehow go in the late 2nd round despite all the talent in the world? That’s a weird thing to want.

We’re talking six home games a year. So maybe a couple of rainy weather games. And that’s a factor?

When he said that I actually started putting together statistics showing numbers of pass/rush attempts agains USC at home vs UW at home, which ultimately was a negligible difference. Pair that with our DB->NFL factory and it’s a pass rush heaven. I was going to tweet it to him, but then I remembered I don’t tweet the croots.

"Kayvon Thibodeaux". Does that sound like the name of a UW Football player? No.
"Jim Hurr-Dirven". Does THAT sound like the name of a (white) UW Football player? Yes.

Ok, good talk. NEXT.

New article on Kayvon. Just announced top 5 and he breaks down each school. He has SC in his top 5 but states SC hasn't even talked to him in months. Fucking SC.

https://247sports.com/college/football/recruiting/Article/Nations-top-prospect-Kayvon-Thibodeaux-has-cut-his-list-to-5-119467209

Here’s a kid who painted this whole picture about how he is different, and wants to cut through the bs sales pitches or recruiting, and be special blah blah blah, and what did he go and do? Fall for some of the biggest salesmen in CFB, and Bama.

I don't have a subscription to 247, but did he really say in the article how he wanted to cut through the BS sales pitches in recruiting? Alabama I can allow because they actually win things, but USC, LSU, Oregon, Florida State are the slimiest recruiters out there that just tell you what you want to hear.

He tweets too much to find everything, but from TBSing and listening to interviews over time he has made comments about how all these schools make the same recruiting pitch, and he wanted to pick a school where he would be successful on the field as well as set up for life after football. He mentioned how one school was copy/pasting texts and just changing the kids name, how he cares about relationships with the coaches. Yet here he is in bed with taggart, USC he said hasn’t contacted him in months according to @huskyhooligan . He always tries to sound deep, made some tweet sound like he might stop playing football, made announcements when he was “decommitting” from all star games. So yeah, he acts like he wants one thing, but he’s just a teenager that thinks he’s deep and prophetic but really has no idea what the fuck he is doing.

ASU just pulled two kids from Texas that were top TCU targets. One's a WR and the other is a TE. And that's with fucking Herm Edwards as their coach! So yeah. I don't want to hear any bullshit about there being no chance UW pulls this kid. UW should win this battle. Losing to Texas and A&M for Texas kids is to be expected. But not TC fucking U. Close him!

Side Note: TCU mod says he expects his decision to be made within the next three days.

Kids don't want to hear logic and shit. Most want to be sold in an exciting way as possible.

They should have. Getting smoked by TCU for two kids back to back and watching ASU beat them for two kids is fucking embarrassing.

This is fucking stupid. Kwat is the worst recruiter I've ever seen. Can't even get a white kid he can relate to. Why the fuck didn't we hire a young OLB coach? Preferably a black OLB coach. Jimmy Lake is not turning over any DB coaching or recruiting duties to Will Harris. So basically WIll Harris is a glorified graduate assistant right now and Lake is putting down roots in Seattle and said he gonna be here a "long, long time". What the fuck are we doing? The Harris hire looks like shit right now. There better be some good news coming down the pipe for Buck recruiting. Trice is fine but the next best guy after Ellison is Latu who everybody fucking wants. What am I thinking? We probably won't getting either of them.

I'm playing the worlds smallest violin for you.

Kwat is a Dawg he bled in the pressbox in Husky Stadium and you fucking manlet are gonna shit on for some stiff from Aledo. FoH.

Here is me not giving two fcks what you thing is smart or dumb.
