There was a big thread on this awhile back. If you count pre- internet days which I admittedly know nothing about, Napoleon Kaufman and Tommie Smith were supposed to be very high as welldnc said:
Reggie was right there, I'll try and dig it up but me and DDY had this conversation a couple months back.Doogles said:Shaq by every metric was the highest rated recruit we ever signed. He was #3/4 overall recruit depending on the service.
But yes I think Shaq was one or two spots higher than Reggie overall. -
Tommie Smith was the biggest by far. Cali state player of the year at tailback. Great safety. Then Nip was even bigger.

You mean Nap? That’s what we called him in high schoolRaceBannon said:Tommie Smith was the biggest by far. Cali state player of the year at tailback. Great safety. Then Nip was even bigger.

That being said, I'm going to need proof that he was ranked top 5 overall by whatever rankings there were.RaceBannon said:Tommie Smith was the biggest by far. Cali state player of the year at tailback. Great safety. Then Nip was even bigger.
Shaq is the crown jewel as far as I can tell. -

Can't have a link when I was reading live and in passing buttfucker. Go to SportsWASHINGTON, find the search button and find the bitch yourself. Want me to hold your fucking hand the rest of your life? Break free @Doogles, there's a wealth of knowledge right at your fingertips.Doogles said:

Ngata talked with 247 Clemson. Telling quote from the manbeastchild
"My mom liked it and was comfortable with me going there so I knew it was the right timing. Clemson is different than every other school I've visited. It's top-notch in football, academics, and family."

I don't read anything into this quote other than he thinks he will have the most fun at the farm school in rural South Carolina.

Clemson schedules the cocks and one other legit opponent on a regular basis. Their schedule is strong.GaryFromTeenMom said:

I never thought I would say this, but OBK won.Baseman said:
I chinned OBK for his courage for moving in—rent free, mind you—to your head.StrongArmCobra said:
Is this the most joy you get out of life? Trolling UW fans on a UW board after UW has slaughtered Oregon the past two seasons? Did any of us give a fuck when Talanoa Hufunga committed to USC?

Well, Clemson is academis enough for him to get into the league. I guess that's what really matters to many croots.Passion said:

It's all window dressing, usually. -
If we could stop bringing up his name/threads so I can stop reliving this travesty I would appreciate it..
-
Kid like him usually end up in the league, so no education needed for them

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say this kid is gone.

Can this thread die please?

I've been told this is the first domino to fall. A few more and Ngata will be back in play. -
DISAGREEdnc said:For real.
My basic rule of thumb is that if a recruit commits to what is currently considered a better program than us (Bama, SC, Clemson, Oklahoma, Ohio State etc) it's over for us when they commit there. Obviously there are exceptions (hi Tuli), but we know Clemson isn't going to be incompetent with Joe like SC is.
But Ngata's the one recruit I feel differently about. I never bought into the "we have every advantage for him" line, Clemson has two massive ones - recent natty and first round WR's on top of first round WR's. Those things are huge.
But they won't change between here and signing day. They are static advantages.
UW's advantages OTOH are dynamic.
Who is he going to talk to more between now and signing day, UW players or Clemson players? UW
Who is he going to spend more time with between now and signing day, UW players or Clemson players? UW
Who is he going to talk to more in person between now and signing day, UW coaches or Clemson coaches? UW
Where will he spend more time between now and signing day, Montlake or Death Valley (the lesser)? Montlake
Whose games will he see more of between now and signing day, UW or Clemson? We don't know but there's a real shot it's UW
Whose games will he attend more between now and signing day, UW or Clemson? Almost certainly UW
Yes, UW had all of these advantages last year and he still committed to Clemson. He's probably going to Clemson. But Ngata's in the rare position where he's still likely to be exposed to a ton of pro UW influence over the next four months. He's also in the rare spot where a) UW doesn't need someone at his position we are just holding a spot for him because he's special b) we aren't going to quit recruiting him because he committed elsewhere. UW's advantages are strongest during the football season, and 81% of the time between now and signing day is football season.
Now if UW takes another WR commit you can discard all this . But if we? don't (and we shouldn't), I think we still make a strong push for Ngata.
As a crazed bi-polar teen boy stocking maniac once said, it's not over til they sign.
Don't change @SpiritHorse's name to Elmer just yet.
