wt didn't go after himUOducksTK1 wrote:I like it. I know someone people don't care about keeping guys in-state and would rather just take best player available nationally, but I like always reaping in the majority of the top 5 state players every year. And maybe in the mid 2000s I wouldn't have such a strong opinion, but the way our state talent has been trending the past few years, it's wise to give a strong first pass to the in-state guys first.
Look at the top guys from the state last year, none signed with us:
Marlon Tuipulotu (USC). would have loved to have gotten
Elijah Molden (Washington)difto
Connor Neville (Washington State)passed on
David Morris (Oregon State)WT tried to get in on him
Daniel Green (Kansas State)couldnt get into UO
Jaxson Kirkland (Washington)we took the kid from Sheldon instead, and honestly he's from Washugal just played in Oregon
Demetrius Douglas (Minnesota)was encouraged to look elsewhere
Brandon Pili (USC)
