Done: QB, Specialistsdnc said:So I know I did one of these back in like February but I can't find it so we'll start from scratch. I really don't know how many schollies we're going to have available so I'm just going to use last year's 21 as a starting place. Obviously more or less kids could make a big impact on the accuracy of this projection. Kids in bold are kids I'm projecting to be added to the class.
QB
Current Commits: Morris
Projected signee total: 1
What's left: DONE
RB
Current Commits: Cameron Davis
Projected signee total: 1
What's left: No idea who we end up with here, I just can't imagine us only signing one given the makeup of the roster and the depth of the RB class. I could see us settling for Taron Madison maybe? You know what, let's say we're just getting one.
WR
Current Commits: Taj Davis
Projected signee total: 2
What's left: Joe Ngata. Probably just signing one if we don't get him. Coin flip between us and Clemson at this point. I believe in Lubick. The rare out of state recruit where I think the longer he waits to commit the better that bodes for us.
OL
Current Commits: Kalepo the GOAT, Corey Luciano (JUCO)
Projected signee total: 4
What's left: Julius Buelow, Troy Fautanu, Bailey Elder (not offered)
Analysis: Fautanu is underrated and might be easier to close than he should be. Buelow's not but I like our chances anyway. Ultimately I'm guessing we cap the class there though I'd love to see them go 5 and add Elder. There are a few other guys out there we could pull if need be (Barrett Miller) but I think this will be it.
TE
Current Commits: none
Projected signee total: 1
What's left: Isaiah Foskey, Jude Wolfe, some lesser rated WTEs that we'll end up signing one of and sending to the NFL. Foskey would be chincredible.
DL
Current Commits: Sama Paama, Noa Ngalu
Projected signee total: 4
What's left: Faatui Tutele, Jacob Bandes, Apu Ika, Stephon Wright
Analysis: Could see us taking any two of the above four and would be thrilled with any combo. Tutele is the big prize and I think we have a real shot but until we start signing out of state 5 stars I'm going to expect us to miss on them. But man I want that kid.
OLB
Current Commits: Alphonzo Tuputala
Projected signee total: 2
What's left: Bralen Trice, Treven Ma'ae, Colt Ellison (lol), Drake Jackson
Analysis: Trice is the guy we seem to want the least, so yeah.
ILB
Current Commits: Miki Ah You
Projected signee total: 2
What's left: Daniel Heimuli, Maninoa Tufono
Analysis: Love to get them both, don't see how they all fit.
DB
Current Commits: Kamren Fabiculanan
Projected signee total: 4
What's left: Darien Chase, Cameron Williams, Spam Chancellor, Trent McDuffie
Analysis: I'd gladly take any 3 of the above 4, McDuffie seems least likely.
Specialists
Current Commits: 0
Projected signee total: 1
What's left: Timothy Horn (K)
This puts us at 22, and doesn't include Jordan Lolohea who I'd like to still add. Scholarship limitations are a bitch.
Likely done: RB, WR
Maybe done: TE
What's left:
OL: Going to take one or two (hopefully two) more. Buelow looks really good. Fautanu looks possible. Vimahi looks really good, possible mission kid. Possibly could take all three if Vimahi is confirmed mission.
That's it on the offensive side unless somehow Foskey happens there's a different surprise at TE, or at RB or WR.
DL: Once Bandes commits today that will give me 4 out of 5 from this projection (Ngata being the whiff). Wright still looks like a good chance, and Tuitele seems a legit chance as well. Ika is pretty unlikely. Is there any way we would take Bandes, Wright and Tuitele? I can't see how but I can't see telling any of them no either. EWIWBC
ILB: Heimuli seems a heavy UW lean. Tufono seems destined to play for Hawaii at this point. Sad.
OLB: Trice seems to be trending Oregon which, SarkShrug.gif. Who knows what we do here. Seems we definitely need somebody at Buck. Could be a late surprise we steal from a lesser schools commit list ala Tryon/Tafisi.
DB: Doesn't look like Chase has a committable offer at this point but I still think he could be the guy if we whiff on some higher targets. Looks like we need a CB with McDuffie highest on our list, then maybe Javin Wright? LPJ still lurking in the shadows. I trust in Damaged Goods so I'm sure we'll be fine here.
Next to commit: Bandes obvs
After that: Heimuli, Wright, Buelow (not necessarily in order)
After that who knows.

To give a serious response to a shit question, the current racial breakdown of the commits looks like this:WeakarmCobra said:How many colored are there?
African American: 3
Cockasian: 3

Chase
I'm feeling good about the top 3. I wanted to put Tuitele, but I am trying not to doog. Last two are my wildcards. Ruth is being coy about someone, he is visiting on 12/15, and we always pull a wild card out late. Also considered Foskey, but we don't really need a TE. I think we take Chase late when we miss on McDuffie and Wright.
Sleepers would be Quentin Moore or a RB not on our radar who has a great senior year and blows up. -

#JustHereToBeatMyChest
Currently by 247 we 7 four stars and 6 three stars (4 and 9 by composite). If the rest of my projected class were to come in that would have us taking 8 more for a class of 21. Of those 8 I only have 7 named (I projected us taking a TE but didn't guess which one). Of those 7, only Heimul has a discrepancy between 247 and composite, with him a 3 star on 247 but 4 on composite. Together they would add 4 4 stars by 247 (5 if the TE is a 4 star) and 5 4 stars by composite.
This would put our class at 11 247 four stars and 9 composite 4 stars, with a TE potentially making that 12 and 10, and if Ah You gets his rumored 247 bump that would put it at 12 or 13 247 four stars and 9 or 10 composite.
Interestingly Tufono is also a 3 by 247 but 4 by composite, so swapping him and Heimuli doesn't affect the totals.
Also interestingly Tuitele is down to a 4 star by both composite and 247 so swapping he or Ika in for either of the DL doesn't affect anything number wise either.
The biggest wild cards left seem to be:
Will we take a TE? If so, who?
Will we take another WR (please no unless it's Joe)? This would seem to almost certainly be a 3 star if they did.
How many more DL, OL and LB do we take?
But even with those wild card I think it's safe to expect a range of 11 to 13 247 4 stars and 8 to 10 composite 4 stars.
8 247 4 stars/6 247 3 stars (5 and 9 by composite).
Bandes is up to 28 overall on 247 and is currently our best shot at getting a 5th star. They always give their final top 32 5 stars, fwiw. -

(Note: "x star" means composite and 247 agree. Cases where they don't agree will be noted).
QB: Morris (4 star)
RB: C Davis (4 star)
WR: T Davis (3 star)
OL: Kalepo (4 star), Buelow (4 star), Fautanu (3 star), Luciano (JUCO 3 star)
DL: Ngalu (3 star), Paama (247 4 star, composite 3 star), Bandes (4 star...currently in position to be a 247 5 star), Tuitele* (4 star)

3 stars: 8 247, 10 composite
Done: QB, RB, K
Maybe done: OL, OLB, WR, TE
Probably not done: ILB, DL
Not done: DB -
I'm expecting a class of at 24-25 at this point, with at least one more DB guaranteed, one more ILB highly likely, one more DL likely, and everything else up in the air based on who they can get in the boat.
Remaining targets (guys I think we would take a commit from right now):
5 stars
McCoy - WR, OLB
Ford - WR
4 stars
Rhyan - OL (in position to be a 247 5 star)
Heimuli - MLB
McDuffie - DB
Latu - OLB
Foskey - OLB
Ika - DL
Vimahi - OL
To'oto'o - MLB
Possible targets (fallbacks or guys they could be recruiting that we're not sure of)
Wright - DL (4 star)
Steele - DB (4 star)
Chase - DB (4 star)
Kejuan Markham - DB (247 4 star, composite 3 star)
McMillian - DB (3 star)
Archer - TE (3 star)
LPJ - DB (3 star)
Javin Wright (3 star)
Guys I think we add:
Heimuli (high confidence)
Wright (guessing Ika doesn't want us and we take him)
McDuffie (getting nervous since we haven't heard any buzz since his visit, he's been silent on twitter as well outside of liking Calvert's commitment tweet and Hutson's SC decommitment tweet, which says he's been on twitter just hasn't had anything to say. OTOH, In Jimmy Lake I Trust!)
Guys I think aren't coming here:
Ika - Hasn't ever seemed that into us. Ikaika's a machine but this one seems unlikely.
To'oto'o - Tosh'oto'o
Foskey - Expanding your list after visiting UW screams "I haven't found the place I want to be".
McCoy - lol
Ford - ditto
Guys I have no idea on so we may HASWTKs:
Vimahi
Rhyan
Steele
Latu
Guys who would jump at a committable offer:
Chase
LPJ
Wright
McMillian
With 5-6 spots to play with, the big recruiting weekends in December to come, then the Poly Bowel, then the chance to Bruce Wayne in on high value targets after the early signing period like we did with Irving and Tuli last year and I'd be disappointed if we don't add at least 4 more 4 stars to the mix. 4 gets you to 15 247 4 stars and 13 composite. That's a great class. And then there's the outside shot at Bandes getting a 5 star, adding Rhyan and him adding a 5th star, or getting either of the 5 star receivers.

This is cool. But, why don't we all just agree to scrap this composite bullshit? ESPN is terrible and distorts the rankings too much. Just list the 247 scores, and while not perfect, it is better than including the faggots at ESPN who fuck it all up completely.

We don't give a shit about composite. If anything, include the HH rankings. Kalepo as a 200 Star makes this the most talented rosters in the nation coming in. -

Seems like a ploy to fuel the fire to get Helton firedMeek said: -
First off, Helton is getting unfairly criticized. How can you expect to win with a QB that should be a Sr in high school? If he is winning less than 6 games when JT is a Jr then might, maybe, but people are being completely unfair to that guy. Completely unfair.
But if they do to something stupid and fire him, how many of the Duck's commits become fair game? With a good coach (or at least a good recruiter) I can picture them poaching at least 4 or 5 of those guys to cobble together a last-minute recruiting class. -
Usc would have to fire him pretty damn quick then, right? Early signing period and all.HoustonHusky said:First off, Helton is getting unfairly criticized.

Thibodeaux to Orygun?Meek said: -
UW will finish with:
Daniel Heimuli: UW lean
Faatui Tuitele: UW lean
Stephon Wright: UW lean IMO
Isaiah Foskey: UW vs Notre Dame, Notre Dame has yet to beat us for a guy so why should I think this time will be different?
Sean Rhyan: USC's O-line is trash. They're one of the worst rushing teams in the country. If Helton isn't fired, their O-line coach definitely will be. Where else is he going to go if O-line player development at USC sucks? Huff is probably the coolest O-line coach recruiting him and probably has the best relationship with him.
Bru McCoy: USC coaching sucks, he and his dad love UW and Coach Pete.
Kyle Ford: USC coaching sucks. He has a bunch of homies on the team at UW already. Would fit right in and knows he'll get developed here.
and maybe Drew Fowler or the 3* BTE who hasn't been offered yet if they have room.

@HillsboroDuck, Ecklund, Section14A, a Q???????
Who the fuck is @DNC?
Is Tuputala definitely playing OLB? For some reason I thought he was being recruited at ILB.
You think we're done at OLB? I was really hoping we could pull either Latu or Foskey.
Heimuli is a super important recruit for this class. Maybe the most important given how shitty our depth & talent is at that position. Really hope we can nail down that kid.

I would certainly need to get out of the house and purchase some new sweatpants if this happens.StrongArmCobra said:UW will finish with:

I think that with:HillsboroDuck said:I'm expecting a class of at 24-25 at this point, with at least one more DB guaranteed, one more ILB highly likely, one more DL likely, and everything else up in the air based on who they can get in the boat.
Remaining targets (guys I think we would take a commit from right now):
5 stars
McCoy - WR, OLB
Ford - WR
4 stars
Rhyan - OL (in position to be a 247 5 star)
Heimuli - MLB
McDuffie - DB
Latu - OLB
Foskey - OLB
Ika - DL
Vimahi - OL
To'oto'o - MLB
Possible targets (fallbacks or guys they could be recruiting that we're not sure of)
Wright - DL (4 star)
Steele - DB (4 star)
Chase - DB (4 star)
Kejuan Markham - DB (247 4 star, composite 3 star)
McMillian - DB (3 star)
Archer - TE (3 star)
LPJ - DB (3 star)
Javin Wright (3 star)
Guys I think we add:
Heimuli (high confidence)
Wright (guessing Ika doesn't want us and we take him)
McDuffie (getting nervous since we haven't heard any buzz since his visit, he's been silent on twitter as well outside of liking Calvert's commitment tweet and Hutson's SC decommitment tweet, which says he's been on twitter just hasn't had anything to say. OTOH, In Jimmy Lake I Trust!)
Guys I think aren't coming here:
Ika - Hasn't ever seemed that into us. Ikaika's a machine but this one seems unlikely.
To'oto'o - Tosh'oto'o
Foskey - Expanding your list after visiting UW screams "I haven't found the place I want to be".
McCoy - lol
Ford - ditto
Guys I have no idea on so we may HASWTKs:
Vimahi
Rhyan
Steele
Latu
Guys who would jump at a committable offer:
Chase
LPJ
Wright
McMillian
With 5-6 spots to play with, the big recruiting weekends in December to come, then the Poly Bowel, then the chance to Bruce Wayne in on high value targets after the early signing period like we did with Irving and Tuli last year and I'd be disappointed if we don't add at least 4 more 4 stars to the mix. 4 gets you to 15 247 4 stars and 13 composite. That's a great class. And then there's the outside shot at Bandes getting a 5 star, adding Rhyan and him adding a 5th star, or getting either of the 5 star receivers.

- usc imploding
- ucla showing signs of life (but would you play for coach Kelly?)
- Oregon doing okay but huge question of herbert (potential post herbert)
- Arizona schools lol
- stanford not being stanford-like
- OSU lol
- Washington state trending upward but do you really want to go there?
- Utah doing well but that has been traditionally like going backwards for recruits...
Some interesting times
If it is to be believed from Ruth, bru potentially coming for a third unofficial would be huge.
Ford suffering an injury and needing time to recover, would it make sense to go to a school that has stability and allow to to develop that's not a dumpster 🔥 like usc?
Since we have duplication at dl but less at edge save for trice, it would make sense they are making sure wright is 100% before taking him.
Ryhan has supposedly been very low profile on the circuit which fucks up the usual recuiting site assessments of him. He was CB to USC by some lazy people but i have a feeling he's not a usc guy and has spoken very complimentary of uw ...
Feeling doogish I'll counter that expanding your list after visiting (foskey) may just be a reaction to the "take your visits" mantra from Petersen. Remember he's a Poly bowl kid and we have a ton of influence and momentum at that event. Its gonna be lit! Plus hes being recruited as a defensive player ...
So many targets and current commits are going to the poly bowl. Huge event

Not delusional this time around. If you were one of these elite recruits would you go to USC over UW right now? You'd have to be stupid as fuck right? Their current coaching staff is trash so if you're going to USC you're either going to have a shit coaching staff that can't develop players and can't game plan or a new coaching staff that you didn't sign up for that might also turn out to be shit. UW is in prime position to be a safety net for these elite recruits that would traditionally go to SC but won't because of the instability there.WeakarmCobra said:
