Kaho, is more fast twitch than Tufono and has better hips (I know). Tufono strikes me more inside LB, not sure would trust him playing in space as much I would Kaho. Honestly, I think jack Sirmon is more superior prospect than tufono. Still want himFKA_Mousecop said:

Tufono is built like a prototypical Mike. Sirmon can play Mike or Will. They both could probably play Sam as well, but seeing as we moved Tevis inside I don't think we're looking for those types on the edge any more. Kaho is built like a Will but he's so explosive he might play Sam anyway.WeakarmCobra said:

Who you like as a prospect? I love the way Sirmon moves in space.NorwegianHusky said:

I love the fact that Sirmon already has good instincts in coverage. He's just a decent-to-good athlete though. Heimuli is faster, but he's always blitzing and never dropping back.WeakarmCobra said:

Tufono is a lot like Sirmon. Big frame and well-rounded. Might have a little more range. I've been a Kaho guy since day one though. He's the most athletic and versatile. -
Doogman boys have been painting a picture over the last month or so that UW just isn’t all that interested in Tufono and were only recruiting him because of his dad.
Wiltfong posted an interview with Tufono yesterday in which he said that UW and Texas is recruiting him the hardest, namely Peterman and Gregory.
So naturally, us paying nimrods want to know which is true. Are we recruiting the kid or are we not and we were met with the Fatters magic trump card:

1. Most of the updates on him from the past few months seemed to indicate UW cooling on Tufono, however we are listed in his top 5 and indicated UW is recruiting him very hard. Did something change on UW's end? Was your information a bit off or did circumstances just change? I know these things are in constant flux but was just wondering how things look presently...
ANSWER: Circumstances in recruiting always change. Recruiting is incredibly fluid, changes can happen on the hour. That's why it's smart to not take updates as gospel when looking at the big picture. They are simply a snapshot of current events.
....that’ll be $10.95. -

Fuck those fucking thieves. -
Anyone got his measurement info from the opening?

I have no idea why anyone who likes money would ever pay for the LPT or Ruth or Biggins or any recruiting site. Those losers are simply the worst part of recruiting and their breaking news has zero relevance.
