Sevion Morrison, 2020 3* RB, Tulsa (Edison), OK (Offered 1/24/19)

The bitching on this board includes these statements:[/b]

"We want more black kids on the team."

"The coaches are limiting the talent pool available to them."

"The coaches are avoiding kids from a different 'culture'."

"Anything else Dennis says."

The coaches proceed to offer a bunch of black kids from California, Texas, and Oklahoma. And not just suburban black kids either. Some of them are from areas that are known as, you know, "the hood".
[/b]
The boards response:[/b]

"What the fuck are they doing?"

"What is going on?"

"Those kids are never coming here, it's a total waste of time."

The irrational hypocrisy is stunning. How does nobody else notice this? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. [/b]

Where's the black kids being offered in CA? All of these recent offers that we're reacting to are in the south. It has nothing to do with that. Jake Majors isn't black and he was also a pointless offer.

Boner can't recruit black kids from LA or AZ, what the fuck makes you think he can get any from Texas or Oklahoma?

13 out of the 16 Cali recruits offered for 2020 so far are black.

Why can't UW get kids from Texas or Oklahoma? I'm seeing a lot of excitement from those kids on Twitter when they get a UW offer. A lot of "ooh that's a big one" type of stuff from their friends. Texas kids are about winning. UW is starting to sell itself. They should be able to get 2 or 3 guys from Texas every class.

How the fuck are they ever supposed to get any of them if they don't try? Hmmmm?

I’d be more impressed by their excitement if they posted the correct name of the University.

For all the value/meaning the staff places on the offers.... how many offers have gone out to out of region kids for how many commits. Levi/Fuller/Curne

For fucks sake, look at what happened with Kennedy Lewis that’s the likely scenario for most of these kids.

Promise you we’d have a higher closing rate if we focus more on Cali with an RB coach that’s better at recruiting than he is at creeping Instagram/Twitter wannabe models.

From 2015-2019, per 247, UW has offered 554 PSAs. In that time frame, we've offered 93 kids from Texas, about 17% of total offers. The Huskies signed 106 players from 2015-2019, with only 4 coming from Texas, about 4%.

2015-2019 signees & offers by in our "region" by state (I'm excluding Idaho, Wyoming, Montana & New Mexico... Not enough FBS prospects) and the hit %:

AZ: 5/32 = 15%
CA: 43/252 = 17%
CO: 0/7 = 0%
HI: 6/22 = 27%
NV: 1/12 = 8%
OR: 5/12 = 41%
UT: 4/29 = 13%
WA: 33/34 = 97%

Except for Colorado, the hit (signee) rate is still higher than in Texas.

I probably fucked up my math (I was a psychology major) but you get the gist

Good maff but it only means something if we somehow decide "offers" indicates how much time, energy, etc is spent on those commits.

I don't believe the total investment in recruiting Texas has been anything close to 17%. I would guess it's a lot closer to the 4%.

I came from the angle that UW (seemingly) doesn’t throw out offers and the evidence in Texas seems to indicate otherwise.

I would say in terms of actual time, I agree it’s closer to 4%
 
Jayveon Sunday unofficially visited UW in hopes of receiving an offer. This kid Sevion Morrison already wants to visit UW right after getting an offer. They seem pretty interested to me. Definitely not a waste of time.

If we had a recruiter who was worth a shit I would agree with you but it's Boner who would have to close this kid.

The program is beginning to sell itself.

Our only commit for ‘20, a 3 🌟 Viking, says hello. Go look at 247’s team rankings for ‘20 and tell me how the program is beginning to sell its self.

Judging our 2020 class a year before signing day is whack

A program that’s “selling its self” would be doing better at this stage in comparison to the other blue bloods. Very simple and easy to prove true.

I don’t care that udub takes its time in recruiting and typically requires a visit before a commit and then doesn’t like them taking other trips after committed. If that’s your strategy and you are the ceo (peterman) figure out a way to speed up the process-https://247sports.com/Season/2020-Football/CompositeTeamRankings/.

Let me know how far down you’re scrolling to find us.

Nothing was said about the class being complete or a waste. PRESENT DAY COMPARISONS You fucking bitches.

Future class rankings when the 2019 class isn't done yet are fucking meaningless.

Most of these schools that have more than 2 or 3 commits right now, get the bulk of them off of these big "junior days" or other dedicated underclassmen-centric visit days. Their goal is to get these groups of kids all hyped up together and then try to get commitments from as many as they can, acknowledging that most of them are still going to continue to take visits and consider other schools. Over the years Pete has completely done away with all these type of events where UW used to do this too. Even those of us who agree that the "don't accept a commitment until a kid has checked other schools out and is 100% ready to shut down the recruiting process" is probably a good approach for Pete, also recognize that we are missing out on a lot of publicity and excitement by not being being involved.

For me, I think last spring we could have really benefited from doing this with all the 2020/21 WA talent, but it's such a pointless battle to fight at this point cause we know Pete's never going to change. It's also pointless to make sweeping statements based solely off the the number of "commitments" a school has a year out before they can sign.
