    I feel dirty after reading that post. Whole new level of teen boy stalking. I can't.

    Will you or your attorney accept service for CBS Interactive’s infringement complaint?

    Somewhere Walter Cronkite weeps while Dan Rather LAFFS.

    Most important recruit still on the board and it's not close imo. I know Ford would be huge, and everyone likes shiny toys that go fast and attract chicks, but UW needs outside linebackers in the worst way...worse than we need 5* receivers.

    As much as I agree with you, It’s still Ford. It’s 1a 1b where they’re both equally important as far as need. But the effect Keith Taylor and Julius Irvin had on Trent McDuffie is why we need Ford more. Ford shows other receivers they can come here and not saying Latu can’t do that with OLB’s there just aren’t as many ties.


    But Latu doesn’t help us get Sav’ell. Ford not only helps us get Johnny Wilson, I don’t think Wilson comes here if Ford’s not here. But yeah they’re both so fucking important and I need Latu in my life. Especially paired with this DLO class.

    Wilson's not coming here either way.

    Latu's more important because the dropoff from him to anyone else in the 17 and 18 classes at BUCK is much greater than the dropoff from Ford to Spiker/Osbourne.

    Obviously both would be best.

    Not when all he has to look up to is Aaron Fuller he’s not. We already made his top 3 and Bush has recruited him since day 1 when we actually offered early. Oregon and USC are the only other options and he only took Oregon seriously when Mycah committed.

    I'm not saying this is insider info, but I would be pretty damn shocked if Latu chose us over USC.

    Jesuit culture is ballz deep for USC and Nigel Burton was a long time ago.

    I'm trying not to Doog here, hope I'm wrong.

    I think Nigel Burton transferred to UW only after Pacific U shut its football program down.

    Nobody would touch him out HS that’s why he went to Pacific. Nigel’s a Dawg, but Doogles is right, UW Love was a long time ago. Joey Alfieri not coming to UW is another proof point.

    Some dipshit named “Bud” CB’d him to USC.

    Different Jesuit high school. Plus the last two years we’ve gotten Jaxson Kirkland and Trey Lowe out of THAT jesuit high school.

    Yeah I can't vouch for the Portland version, but the school in Carmichael chose it's school colors to mirror USCs for a reason.

    All about the Trojans here.

    @Swaye not sure why I’m asking you but that’s kinda my go to on here but you know anyone (or anything he can do) that can get him on a no fly list before he departs Sunday? Not trying to get him in trouble cuz that would threaten his OKG status but signing day and Christmas in Seattle wouldn’t be the worst thing for him.

    You’re right. There was an LB/RB from Jesuit Carmichael last cycle that stiffed us. Beau Bisharat

    Not sure about no fly but I am sure I can get him arrested for soliciting. I know some top shelf hookers that owe me a favor. Does King County jail work for keeping him in town?

    Yes. That works as long as his bail is signing his NLI to UDUB.

    Psalm Wooching might actually be an asset here. UW football should be promoting his rugby stuff on Twitter.


    Someone get Psalm on Twitter please!
