@sonics1993

1. Was Eklund serious when he posted a fake UW offer of a video game character named Darmonte Quizlet V?
2. Is Space Jam 2 and his acting career the reason the staff hasn't offered CB Ceyair Wright?
3. Was Black Beast not getting drafted because of his medicals?
4. What was all the noise with Henry To'oto'o towards the end of last summer?
5. T/F - The guys from Dawgman know you but they don't know you are the legendary @sonics1993?
6. T/F - IYO is Jen Cohen in over her head as an AD?
7. T/F - USC is a threat for RB Byron Cardwell?
8. T/F - Is TE Gunnar Helm a possibility?
9. Better chance of happening? The Dawgs landing J.T and Emeka or me getting on a mule and winning the Kentucky Derby?
10. What is the pecking order between Somerville/Fano and Heims?
11. The Dawgs have 12 scholarship Seniors. How many commits are we realistically going to take?

1. He was
2. No
3. Yup, was known it was bad for while
4. Twitter over reacting to a couple liked tweets. His family moved out to Tennessee, he wasn’t transferring
5. They don’t know who I am personally but they know I have legit connections and info which makes them uncomfortable because I know things they don’t which makes them insecure
6. No, she’s doing great. Budget looks great and she’s raising plenty of money. She just needs Jimmy to work out which he will
7. Not really right now but hey are definitely trying
8. The way Cato is recruiting, I don’t know if anyone is a possibility
9. Us landing both of them
10. Somerville was third with Heim first and Fano right below him. A lot of schools backed off Quinton once his measurements came out. He’s this years Jordan Banks
11. 18-20
 
You think we finish with a top 20 class?

My head says no but I predicted we land the big trio (JTT, Emeka and Troy) along with Tinae and Owens and I’m sticking by that so yeah

Is that wishful thinking or you know something we don't?

What's taking Jabez and Prentice so long to pop?

- With all three guys, Malloe and Junior have the best relationships out of all the position coaches and in all three cases the moms prefer Washington. All that’s holding us back is the on the field product but being the dawg fan that I am, I am cautiously optimistic with this team and believe we will win 9 to 10 games which I believe lands us all three guys.
- I expect Tinae to commit within the next. Owens got delayed because of the LSU offer. Still expect him to Washington but he’s not a lock

@sonics1993 - Does Jacob Schuster end up a Dawg?

Don’t have a good read yet. The gray shirt offer set them back when it should have been a easy lay up. This staff does a great job of making there life’s more difficult.
 
Did sonics ever answer the question

"Does Gregory know how much he sucks"?

I know he answered the question of Jimmy's loyalty ... guess we have to wait another year or two before Gregory is let go unless he drastically changes his tune.

Spot on

There’s no greater evidence in being significantly out of touch than what has happened here

Can only imagine the conversations behind the scenes when days after giving a gray shirt offer a who’s who of schools give offers

Mind blowingly out of touch

@sonics1993 - Biggins only gave Calvert a 3 inch prediction to USC. Who's the other threat?
 
A few questions for the illustrious @sonics1993
1. Regardless of the "take him because he's local" angle, do you think UW should have taken Julien Simon as an ILB solely based on his playing ability?
2. What are your thoughts on the Robert Wyrsch commitment? Is he an under the radar stud or just a guy we took because OL recruitment wasnt going well?
3. Who do you think we end up with as db commits for this class?
4. Is Brandon Huffman full of shit when he says UW is recruiting Will Latu very hard right now but simply getting beat by Utah?
5. Are we recruiting Lonyatta or are we still letting him go to Cal?
6. Have you seen the QBs throw recently? Who do you think ends up as the starter? Do you have confidence in any of them to be great?
7. What does our starting OL look like and do you think they will perform better than last years group?
8. Is part of the issue with recruiting due to Jimmy hanging onto the policy of only taking a commitment when a recruit is willing to shut it down while other schools are telling kids to commit now and if you really want to take your visits you can (wink wink)?

1. Yes, if you willing to take Latu as a LB then you should take Simon who is better in every way.
2. Good size and comes from weight lifting family. Obviously a project but with very little options that’s what they were left with
3. Have no clue
4. Sadly no but we just started recruiting Latu again about a couple weeks back. Like I said before, this staff does a great job at making there life more difficult then it needs to be
5. Still in contact but he’s leaning out of state (ASU and Cal)
6. No I haven’t seen them throw and no I don’t know who will end up as the starter. My confidence level is low just because of the inexperience, new system and lack of time to prepare. Tough situation to be in
7. Pure guess since there was no spring ball. Kirkland, MJ, Luke, Henry and Curne.
8. No, the pitch just doesn’t resonate over zoom. We desperately need campus visits to be allowed again. When that happens you will see momentum build.

Shouldn’t the coaching staff temporarily change their approach? To be successive, shouldn’t you evolve to your surroundings? Cristobal and his staff are treating Zoom like their own recruiting playground. If I was a UW fan, I’d be pissed. Could this be an indicator that Jimmy might also not evolve if other things don’t work? One really bad class can set you back 2-3 years.

No, you just wait it out until official are allowed again. The momentum will then shift Washington’s way as long as they don’t screw up on the field. Same thing happened last year, once the official’s started in June you saw the class come together. There’s still six months until early signing day, plenty of time.

What are they doing so differently from other teams? Majority of power 5 teams aren't having issues recruiting during the pandemic.

The teams succeeding right now are the teams with proven head coaches. Jimmy is unknown and nobody knows how he’s going to do. If he got them on campus he could sell the vision but he can’t. I’m concerned but not panicked. There’s six months away from early signing period, I believe we will start off 3-1 and with officials hopefully starting back up, that will shift momentum into Washington's favor.
