Go look at the #1 team in the nation right now (Mississippi State) and check out their recruits from the past classes. Most of their key contributors are 3* players
Maybe Petersen's 3-4* okg's might just damn be good enough to win with. Sark's 4-5* guys sure didnt work out so hot yoh little buttsniffing wino wannabe
Jake wasn't a 5 star?
I don't recall Chris Izbicki ever being a 5* and his final scout rating was a 4* (which was clearly pushing it too).

Kavario Middleton was the only 5* Tyrone ever got.

It wouldn't surprise me if they retroactively changed Izbicki to a 4-star a year or more after that recruiting cycle. They used to get crap from people about that on the old Dawgman boards, and I am 100% sure that the top for TEs that year were 5-stars. They had him rated right behind Rob Gronkowski. Holy shit.

He was downgraded to a 4 star long before signing day.
Conspiracy theories are fun, but you're full of shit.

Settle down. I didn't say that it happened, just that it wouldn't surprise me if they did. I've seen guys lose stars and change to NR after recruiting is over. Either way, I stand by my opinion that Izbicki was only rated what he was to try and hype up UW's recruiting.
How many 5* did Sark have?
Depends on whether you want to use the Dawgman-inflated Scout.com rankings. Shaq was universally considered to be a 5-star. Kasen and ASJ were 4-stars.
This.
And we paid 500k + a boat for Shaq.
Kim and F3 got Chris Izbicki rated as a 5-star for gods sake.
You are giving Kim and F3 way too much credit. Scout know that they are idiots. They don't do the rankings.
To be clear, I don't think that those two do the rankings. What I do think that they do is pressure the guys who are doing the rankings to inflate a ranking here or there in order to create some buzz and sell subscriptions. All of the team sites do it.
To add to this, the Chris Izbicki 5-star ranking was one of the most transparent examples of ranking inflation. I still see fans of other teams who follow recruiting mention it on occasion when talking about how retarded that Scout.com is.
I know Chris a little bit and played against him. He was never anything special. A solid high school player, nothing more.
Fetters wrote articles on a kid from my high school team that was a third string TE who never caught a pass. He said the TE oozed potential. He got a two star ranking because he was 6'4" 220 and went to Barton and another regional combine and ran a 4.8.
Zach Banner was another head scratcher. He had tons of offers too. I know he was huge and had great bloodlines, but I saw a 5'10" 200 pound kid from White River dominate him all game long. The kid from White River had like 3 or 4 sacks and a handful of other QB pressures and tackles for loss. At least he had some potential and started for USC, but I was shocked he was rated for high. The #11 ranked tackle should be dominant imo.

Banner got all his offers and recruiting clout as a freshman and sophomore. He was a huge kid as a 9th grader and was Lincoln Kennedy's son so the TBS's drooled over him. I saw him after his senior season st the gym and he looked like he had no muscle at all. Really skinny arms, big fat belly, huge head. He could only bench 225 one time. Did spend a lot of time telling everyone that he was gonna start at SC in his first year though.
Zach Banner always thought of himself as a basketball player first.http://espn.go.com/blog/colleges/us...-around-bend-for-banner?ex_cid=espnapi_public
He's a sophomore starting at USC. I wish he was at Washington right now, like he should be... would be... if UW had ANY other coach but Sark at the time.
Losing Banner, Garnet and Williams when Washington was the first choice for all 3... ALL 3 wanted to go to Washington... the school... and become Huskies. It's the single biggest recruiting failure of Sark's tenure at Washington.

Banner and Williams did. Garnett did not.
Garnett is the only one I thought was good enough. We will see on Banner.....

Not true. Garnett didn't trust Sark and didn't want to experience a coaching change under adverse circumstances... 'allegedly'
Once upon a time, before Scooot hired Biggins, F3 was actually their Northwest recrooting analrapist. He up-rated a bunch of Seattle kids, which made people on eQuook start the "King County All Stars" meme. Once Scooot hired people that had some idea of how football works, F3 went back to some bullshit made-up job at doogman. But yeah, back when F3 was involved in the process, he definitely overrateda bunchall of NW guys.
