First, I would like to apologize to @Swaye for my absence, I had a very important meeting at McDonalds this morning. Came out of it with a 76 cent profit, so WINNING!
Anyways, the 2017 class is looking really good. The thing that holds it back is and will be OL recruiting. I think they will get Henry Bainivalu from Skyline, but they have no chance on Foster and we lost AVT. If I was Petersen, Strausser should be fired at end of the year.
Then you have QB, UW was in a pretty tough spot here, with Jake Browning already in the boat, and Jacob Sirmon already committed for 2018. So I'll kinda sorta let that slide since Sirmon is in the boat and will almost assuredly be an early enrollee.
As far as everything else in recruiting.... FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC.
We hired Hamdan and he immediately has produced results. Ty Jones is, imo, one of the top WR's on the west coast, forget what he is ranked. He is a complete stud and personally I would rank him ahead of Bynum (Who is also really good). Alex Cook is also a very good player, that is three great WR recruits we are bringing in, all of them with different skill sets and they compliment each other. With Browning and then Sirmon coming in, that is very exciting. And I didn't even mention Hunter Bryant who is pretty similar to the type of player we see Daniels being right now at TE, but he is just a much more natural receiver.
Marlon Tuipolututuuutu will continue the reign of terror we are developing on the DL. He is fantastic. Ariel Ngata is built for the BUCK position, really quick and will carry 240, and he won't have to play til he's a RS Soph most likely. Keith Taylor looks like a Marcus Peters clone to me on tape, that's obviously good. Brandon McKinney, beauty.
Connor Wedington looks to have taken a step to me. I initially liked him, but more as a safety prospect, seeing his senior tape already I think he can actually be a really solid RB.
In short, it's a really good class, and I think it's going to get better. I expect Ahmed to commit to UW on Friday (Even though he is NEVER, EVER, EVER coming here, he hates us so much). I also expect Isaiah Palo-Mao to commit to UW in the next month or so and he is just an absolute monster. So with Ahmed, Palo-Mao, and Bainivalu in the fold that is 9 4 star players (and I expect Ty Jones to get a 4th star, and maybe Ngata as well). We'll probably also get some random highly rated guy that we have no idea about right now as well.
Anyways, that's it. Back to McDonald's I go.
It appears I know nothing about recruiting and should shut my fucking cock holster. Well, I knew OL recruiting sucked but @GrandpaSankey could have seen that one. Thank you for your service.
