Troy Franklin, 2021 5* WR, Menlo Park (Menlo-Artherton), CA (Offered 6/23)

[haie]

Let’s be honest, if Jimmy can’t recruit after an 8 win season and a bowl win at Washington then he isn’t the right guy. Cristobal recruited a top 15ish class after Taggert’s 7 win season and Slingblade’s 4 win season before that.

Fucking this.

At the end of the day, all we seem to be selling kids is that they get to play with Sam Huard.

 

[RatherBeBrewing]

It's Oregon's to lose. He's going to stay on the West Coast imo, and of the three he thinks Oregon can win a NC.

His description of us is what old people say about a old pair of shoes they like. Comfortable, safe, secure, etc. That doesn't sound like a kid excited about coming here. What he said about the Ducks is.

Pete why couldn't you have just grinded thru another 12 months and decided you didn't want to go out 8-5....... Recruiting is going extremely suboptimal and has fallen off a cliff since he's left.

Here’s an alternative version.

Pete, why didn’t you quit after the Rose Bowl, like you said you wanted to? We could’ve let Jimmy coach the alpha, let it fucking roll QB. He would’ve played the talent at LB and WR, won 10+ games, and proven his mettle on the field.

Instead we’re in this weird fucking limbo.

Let’s be honest, if Jimmy can’t recruit after an 8 win season and a bowl win at Washington then he isn’t the right guy. Cristobal recruited a top 15ish class after Taggert’s 7 win season and Slingblade’s 4 win season before that.

Oregon cares enough about football to cheat.

Cristo got that $EC style.

UW all about losing recruiting battles the self righteous way.

I loved it when Mark Helfrich would go into a recruits house wearing a non branded turtle neck, and told the players that wanted to commit to sleep on it and make sure it’s right decision. Take a visit out there, I want you to be sure.

Helf wouldn’t green light an offer to a C student, because he was building a Men of Oregon program. His last recruiting class had two four stars dismissed for three separate sexual assault investigations. Another four star transferred to Texas AtM (Texas ATM?) and get kicked out for showing his junk to his tutors. He still got drafted though, so they scouted well.

But I did enjoy seeing an Oregon hat on the table, because we lost fair and square. My ethics felt good, my football felt bad.

And now Franklin is headed to Oregon too? What in the actual shit is going on?

 

[GaryFromTeenMom]

What a fucking disaster.

Honest question:

What do you Dawgs think of Kimmy and her recruiting information?

Because she said Franklin and Mak were locks!

Because she said Franklin and Mak were locks!

All her recruiting info comes from the coaches which is great when they have a good feel for recruiting but when they are overly bullish and not understanding where they actually stand it leads to a lot of wrong predictions which she has been making since Jimmy took over. I talked to Will a few times and he would tell me how he thinks they have a good shot at there top targets when all my third party sources where saying that’s not true. That’s why I was negative before all this went down because I could see it coming. And she is wrong about Troy right now, he’s all Oregon and if he decides early (decent shot at that) it’s going to be Oregon. Washington’s only hope is this drags out so they can get him on campus again but Washington has been out recruited so far for Troy.

@sonics1993 would you say that Jimmy Lake is aware of his staffs deficiencies on the recruiting trail? does he have a good feel for recruiting?

Is it Junior getting blown out for troy? or is it a collective effort?

I think he’s finding out how bad his staff is at recruiting right now. We got three coaches who can go toe to toe with almost anyone in recruiting in Huff, Junior and Malloe, one who is above average in coach K and six coaches who can’t get it done. Junior is the only reason we are still in it for Troy. Main problem with Troy was hiring Donovan because they just been bashing the shit out of him and it’s been working. Showed him the stats when he was there at Penn State and then the years after when Moorehead (there new OC) took over. Set up perfectly for them.

@sonics1993 appreciate your input. Do you think Sam Huard is a positive on the trail? don't really see the huard effect yet. What % do you give uw in changing the tide with troy? I like the trifecta off junior, huard and jalen mcmillan.

Do you have any positives for us?

 

[CarlosDanger]

One word......Cristobal.

Basically been a non-stop sodomy session since he took over. Peterman ran for the hills, I don't see it ending much better for Jimmy.

Sam has been in consistent contact with Troy but his impact is felt more in person which is the problem. Sadly I got no good news, Washington is getting murdered on the recruiting trail right now and I don’t expect it to change during the summer. Only shot they got is official visits being allowed in the fall, them getting off to a good start and pressuring some of those commits to take visits but they dug themselves a very deep hole.

@sonics1993 Do you think all these early commitments will stick? I know Troy said he was going to try and make a decision before the season. Do you see alot of decommitments coming as they go thru the season?

I expect to see a good amount of commits visit other schools and I expect to see more decommits this year. But banking on that strategy only works if you have a good year. I rather try to hold one of my commits rather than flipping a commit from anthor school.

Depends on the budget next year but I do expect change.

If the coaches can't patch up Donovan's past with Penn St. they aren't power 5 recruiters. You need some super reputable OC to get it done with offensive players you just have zero creativity at sales.
