I think what happened is that we knew we were taking 4-5 DLs this year and through some mix of circumstances we tried to obscure that until the last one visited (Wright).

I think once Wright visited it was ok with us for Tuitele to come out. I think it’s the same reason why we told people we were recruiting Pa’ama as a OG as well.

If you look at Tuitele’s pics at UW that’s from this last summer. So I’m pretty sure he visited, went home and committed.

I think Ballz is right to say he’s like Derrick Brown. Pa’ama is close to Vita. Ngalu reminds me of Gaines in that he’s 6-2, 265 and plays RB too. Bandes is like Danny Shelton and Wright is kind of like a 6-4, 280 Jojo Mathis (who was 6-2, 250).

If we somehow manage to get Wright this is probably one of the better DL classes ever. As it stands now it’s our best ever.

That’s on top of getting Taki and Tuli last year who will both be big time. I’m sure Liu will be a Gaines-y type eventually as well.

And please God, move Bynum to TE.

We beat a bunch of huge schools for Bandes, Tuitele and Pa’ama. This is a completely different level.

Do you think they would’ve waited until after Wright’s commitment if we were actually getting him? Yet again it’s entirely possible he’s already committed to the staff.

I think they wanted to get Wright in and visited before Tuitele announced. I don't think the timing was a coincidence. I think it's 50/50 for Wright.

I *REALLY* want Wright.

If we somehow finish the class with Wright and Heimuli - no matter what DB we add, it will be incredible. I'm also praying for Latu.

I think a coaching change at USC hurts us with McCoy possibly, but it could help us with Latu.

DT - best class ever
Tuitele
Pa'ama
Bandes
Wright
Ngalu

OLB - best OLB class in decades
Latu
Trice

ILB - Insane
Heimuli
Calvert
Tuputala
Ah You

DB - Great
Turner
KamFab
Williams
Whomever else.

That would seriously be an insane class. Best I've ever seen.

If Bandes deserves an immediate pod so does Tuitele you fucks. A year ago you were all saying “well the best DL on the west coast is in Hawaii, true 5*, no chance we get him, all faith, family, football for him in that order..” Now we’ve got Ikaika “da God” Malloe fucking on another level, and frankly besides trolling ND Jimmy has disappointed this cycle. He’s shown that he can find underrated guys, great. I want him to close Steel, Ricks, Ringo, and close the door on elite west coast DB’s looking to the east coast “DBu’s.”

STOp. The DB class is nails and it's not done yet. Lake closes with the best of them.

The class is solid, but he’s leveling off instead of leveling up, especially when he’s supposed to have expanded duties with BUCK recruiting.

That was never more than wishcasting.

Lake didn’t need to level up.

Tui doesn’t have the foot speed of Donald or Ndamukong Sih but his use of long arms & leverage remind me of their lovechild. At 6’4 295 he almost plays DL elegantly which isn’t an insult or saying he’s soft, it’s a credit to his timing, IQ, leverage, & hip fluidity. It’s not so much a bull in a china shop it looks like this inevitability that you’re not gonna block him so just stand there like a scarecrow while he goes by you. Like he goes up to the line before and says “we can do this the easy way or the hard way” and their whole line smartly chooses the easy way. His comp is hard because I’d say Michael Bennet because of that smooth power from his hips and how he’s going to be asked to do everything for us, but he’s way bigger than Mike. I can’t say any other bruising, space eating DT’s because he’s the furthest thing from that. People say he’s polished and I agree but muscle wise, & just physical maturity, he looks really young still leaving him that much more room to grow.


Bandes is a higher ceiling Greg Gaines. That’s a really fucking good thing.


Stephon Wright reminds me so much of Gerald McCoy. He’s listed at 6’3 265 but when you see his film he looks huge. He’s got crazy long arms, long legs, to the point where it looks like he hasn’t even grown into his body yet which I personally love because it means they’re further away from their ceiling compared to guys like Fournette or Thibodeaux who are just grown ass men in high school. But Wright’s best attribute is for sure DAT ASSSSSS THOOO TALK ABOUT A POWERFUL ENGINE SHEEEEEEESH. I’ve been agreeing with ballz lately but wright to me is much more athletic, long, and flexible than Levi and I see him as a bigger, longer, quicker Jaylen who can hang more outside actually because of that arm length but when inside he’s going to be an absolute matchup nightmare. I agree with ballz overall premise tho


Then there’s Pa’ama who is a god. All I the film I needed to see was him kicking the ball off and dialing back in order to be the safety of the kickoff team and then halfway through that just saying fuck it and beating everyone down there while head hunting. I was sold. He’s kinda the opposite of the Tui elegant premise where as Pa’ama is made out of the same material as super bouncy balls because everyone just flies off him. He’s up there with Bru as best two way prospect out there. I think he’s a little smaller (but still fucking massive) but a lot twitchier than Alameda, Danny, & Vita


Btw all Pa’ama and Tui talked about was how all they knew growing up was USC and that they dreamed of going there forever. They both each took one unofficial over the summer and committed as soon as they got home. Pa’ama didn’t even visit them when he came to the mainland. Did you muhfuccas think we’d ever see the day (I still won’t be satisfied till we start getting Cali skilled guys and no 1 CB’s out of Cali but it’s a trend in the right direction) especially not after the Marlon thing.


Hey Johnny, SUCK THAT HUSKY DICK BITCH
