Waited too long.
-
Are we really not taking his commitment? Why not?
-
I believe the thought is that he was recruited as a safety and that Turner and Williams took his spot.

Weird. He does not look like a safety on film to me. CB or WR.HuskyClaws said:I believe the thought is that he was recruited as a safety and that Turner and Williams took his spot.

Considering we’ve struck out on all our WR targets shouldn’t we be going after this guy? In state kid, athletic, could switch to DB if we somehow flip/land some other guys out of nowhere.
I don’t really see a good reason not to take him. -

We don't need another receiver in the class. Sure we'll take a 5* monster if we can get them but Chase isn't that.ToddTurnerLIVES said:Considering we’ve struck out on all our WR targets shouldn’t we be going after this guy?

If we take Chase anywhere it will be at CB. -
STOp. If we learned anything from Malloe it's not to overrate anything that happens in one class where we have only one or two schollies at a position. If Lubick strikes out next year sure send him door ass out. If we had fired Malloe when everyone wanted him gone (including me) we would have done ourselves a massive disservice.WeakarmCobra said:

Agree with dnc Lipo at least even the current recruiting cycle before calling for heads.dnc said:

There are only 2 guys left on our WR board and neither of them is likely coming to UW. We only have two classes of WRs who are worth a shit on our roster. What’s the logic in taking only one receiver?dnc said:

Chase isn’t a Baccellia, Chin or Fuller. He brings the average talent level of that position group up and adds a body to a position where we are already thin. -
There is room for one more CB. My guess is Mykal Wright and/or McDuffie get the first crack at that spot.ToddTurnerLIVES said:Considering we’ve struck out on all our WR targets shouldn’t we be going after this guy?

The logic is you don't have a single receiver graduating and not likely to have much in the way of couch sales at the position (would love to be wrong on this part). Not to mention you have too many schollies dedicated to the position as it is.ToddTurnerLIVES said:

As DDY has relentlessly pointed out we have virtually as many WR as OL on scholarship. That's a massive problem. We dedicated 6 schollies over the last two classes to fix the issues at WR and another in this class. If those 7 can't get it done then there's something wrong that's not going to be fixed by adding Darien Chase. -
Good call on Wright would be a hell of flip.RoadDawg55 said:

I don't disagree but this also seems like a situation of "as long as we get X number of good receivers in the next class then it doesn't matter that we only sign one guy in this class."dnc said:The logic is you don't have a single receiver graduating and not likely to have much in the way of couch sales at the position (would love to be wrong on this part).

Chase is on par athletically with the guys we have recruited at that position in the last two classes, has position flexibility and is a slam dunk as far as the effort needed to get his commitment. If he was a JAG I would be OK! with passing on him but he seems like a very good prospect.
I guess I am sort of defaulting to "take the athletic, in-state kid at a position of need."

I just don't think it's a position of need, otherwise agree.ToddTurnerLIVES said:

I won't be at all upset if they take Chase. I don't want them to take another receiver unless he's a clear cut #1 guy, which none of those guys are coming here. -
I don't think Chase brings the average talent at the position up, at least not by much
Talent rankings
Spiker
Osbourne
Jones
Bynum
Cook
Davis
Lowe
Fuller
Pounds
Baccellia
Chin
Chase probably falls between Lowe and Fuller. At best between Davis and Lowe.
He might bring the mean up a bit but he doesn't come above the median. Most importantly he'd be 7 out of 8 or 8 out of 8 amongst the guys he's actually going to be competing for playing time against as Fuller/Pounds/Baccellia will all be graduated before Chase's redshirt frosh year and Chin will be gone by his redshirt soph year at the very latest.
I just don't think he moves the needle much. Had they taken him over Davis I wouldn't have complained as I think they're close though I like Davis better.
He doesn't suck. I still think we might take him at CB. I don't think he's a huge asset to us as a receiver though.
Bottom line he's a year too old. Were he in next year's class after we lose three grads I think we'd have room for him. Not this year. -
Per the "big recrootin" bored they only had 3 WR targeted this cycle but a lot more for 2019. We already have 1 and struck out on another so I suspect they are done barring a big surprise. Will see more guys next year with the projected roster turnover.dnc said:

IIRC line players in the west are thinner next year as well. Better to load the lines this year to make up for some whiffs and lack of depth so we aren't trying to fill that out in a down year. -
