Lmao. Dream class*
Lmao. Dream class*
I can think of quite a few “dream” recruits we got last class too. Just wait until the season young grasshopper. BIG momentum will shift our way. Just wait on it. It’ll happen.
I’d be ecstatic with that class, despite the underwhelming OL.
Caleb Berry over Beakhead?
Heims over Fano?
Also to reiterate a point I made earlier, there’s no chance Schuster takes a grayshirt offer. If we want him, he’ll be a ’21 kid.

Hornbeak reminds me of Zach Moss. Berry has a Marshawn Lynch kind of running style that I love to watch. He’s also allegedly 6’2 208 with a lot of filling out to do and you know I love my big backs. If given a choice between a guy who’s similar to Zach Moss versus Beast Mode, I’m going with Beast Mode all day. The dreds give him powers.
I’d love to get Fano. He’s fantastic. But Heims and Jefferson are naturally a bit bigger than him while still having elite speed so if we can only take two OLBs, those are the two I want. Ideally UW would be able to take all three if they can get them all. Latu and ZTP are questionable until they show they have the speed necessary to be elite. We probably need to recruit that position in preparation for the worst case scenario which is: those guys have lost the speed they had in high school and are never going to get it back. I don’t think that will be the case, especially for Latu. But it’s a possibility right now that should be considered.

Lol why is there no chance? If you had the talent to get offered by UW as a football player in high school and that was your dream, would it matter to you if you had to delay your enrollment 6 months to make that dream a reality? If that was me I wouldn’t give a fuck and I’m going to UW no matter what. Some in-state kids are going to UW no matter what. Schuster is coming here no matter what. Obviously the coaches know that otherwise they would have just offered him for 2021 from the jump.

Sure there’s a non-zero chance of him taking it, just like I have a non-zero chance to fuck Ariana Grande.
The kids who accept grayshirt offers are typically ones coming off major injuries (Kizer, Myles Rice) or don’t have any commmittable offers from other P5 programs. Since we offered him, he’s received offers from Michigan and Stanford. When’s the last time a recruit accepted a grayshirt offer when they have offers from those schools?
Drew Fowler had a scholarship offer from UCLA and chose to WALK ON at UW and still doesn’t have a scholarship here. He wasn’t even a gray shirt. I don’t think you understand how common it is. Petersen only used gray shirts for injured kids because he wasn’t as aggressive as Jimmy. That’s not what the rest of college football uses them for. The big boys use them to get more talent. If the coaches think they can get him as a gray shirt then they probably can and will. He can delay enrollment and go to the school he likely really wants to go to on scholarship or he can go to a school he doesn’t really want to go to for four years. How many kids are deterred by a 6 month delay in their enrollment for 4-5 years and a free ride at their dream school?

When did Schuster ever say UW is his dream school? Do you have any examples of kids who accepted grayshirt offers despite holding regular offers from comparable programs?
Asking a kid to postpone his college athletic career and education a big ask especially if they could enroll right away at a competing program. I’m pretty sure UW will make it a ’21 offer unless JTT commits early and we decide we’re done with DL recruiting.

I just gave you an example of Drew Fowler and you keep ignoring it. UCLA is a higher ranked academic school than UW just like Stanford is. Both have shit football programs at this time so there’s no difference there. How do I know UW is Schuster’s dream school? It’s called common sense. You don’t offer a kid as a gray shirt unless you’re confident your school is his dream school. It doesn’t matter what offers some kids have. Some kids are going to USC no matter what. Some are going to UW no matter what. Some are willing to walk on here with no scholarship when they have other Pac-12 scholarship offers. Coaches know when to use that to their advantage. Your argument of “no way he comes here as a gray shirt” is stupid. It happens and can happen again.
And Michigan is all the way across the country and they shotgun offer everybody. No telling if Schuster would even consider going that far for college or if it’s even a committable offer from them.
