Wanted to get a conversation on this going. So far we have confirmed:
Emeka Egbuka (2021)
Lonyatta Alexander (2021)
Josh Conerly (2022)
Have to assume Sam will be there as well.

This is all like a dream. This is the first chance we have to have kids on campus in the new year and we are going all out on underclassmen. It’s like a fucking dream.
Add on our coaches on the first day of dead period ending are hitting the state of Washington… man, this is a great sign. And we are PROMOTING it on social media.
God bless it.

Didn’t we do all of these things under Petersen?

Not anything like this, usually it was in mid to late February. It also wasn’t publicized like this. Our one last year was just kinda cobbled together, and the year before I don’t think we had one. This is going all out, going as early as possible with it, and making it a actually concerted effort. We have never done anything like sending all of our coaches out in state, let alone making it known, let alone doing it first day it’s possible.

This is it. The epochal moment for our program. These next few H.S. classes + The Chosen One Huard. I really want to doog. I am not over the OC hire.

It’s definitely a change in approach. Which is encouraging. One thing Lake pointed out was that Donovan recruited the players that eventually lead to Pedi U success. He was also the Maryland recruiting director. Thus he appreciates recruiting. I think he’s trying to walk the fine line OKG with hood message. He’s betting on himself he going to recruit hard. He’s bringing hype with keeping developmental coaches around. This is big and they are throwing out more offers. I know a couple people who played underneath Lake before UW they all say the same thing he’s the best.

Jimmy needs to ride the staff into the ground this year
If there was ever a year to create a toxic work/life balance and work your staff into the ground with unreachable expectations to achieve the results you want, it’s this year.

If this seasons recruiting push doesn’t create a bunch of work for Seattle’s marriage counselors and divorce lawyers, Jimmy isn’t pushing them hard enough.

Sounds like Jimmy might borrow a page from 1980s Bill Gates – Sleep under your desks if you need rest.

The sooner the coaches get their guys locked up, the sooner they can get more time to spend with their families. Winners get to relax. Losers get worked to the bone and fired. If you want more balance in your life, tap out and find a new occupation like pussy ass Petersen. I don’t hear anybody’s wives complaining about the cars they drive and the shopping money they have to spend.

I think it’s already abundantly clear that Jimmy has a different take on things. He’s smart enough to praise Petersen effusively when given the opportunity but the team is now going to be shaped around how he sees the path to building a winner.
He never stops talking about being aggressive. He’s hyping up Spring Ball and giving praise to the local talent here in WA. I’m sure players know that the “seniors play regardless of on field performance” days are over.
I really don’t give a shit about who the OC coach is beyond can he assist in leveraging and bringing in great talent and then simply get them in 1-on-1 matchups. Recruits will start getting this message but really it’s going to hit home 2022 and beyond after people see how Jimmy’s message and style of play translates to the field.
In the end it’s the Brand that is most important with the University of Washington. We don’t fire coaches because they lost to Oregon 10 straight times. We fire coaches who do not instill proper culture in the PSA. Jimmy is going to offer local kids the ability win it all without having to go to some football factor in some god forsaken shitty little University town.
