From the same school as WOO(Cliff Harris). Currently holding a 3.7 GPA, and was very solid at the Palo Alto NIke camp this past weekend. Did I mention he is a DT!! This would be a monstrous miss if we slow play this kid and come up short handed again.

I agree...we need a HS DT in the worst way!

A monstrous miss on a guy with two offers from very subpar teams? Clay would be a monstrous miss, not this guy.

Clay...Who is this? Post his bio please, thanks.
My personal (wish) list I'd like to see would be...
Sione Potoae
George Uko
and /or Ricky Heimuli
GO DUCKS!!

One thing I hate about Heimuli is he will either sign, then take a two year missions trip, or sign, show up for a year, then take his two year missions trip a la Stevens.
I don't hate him taking a missions trip, however timing is tough and he won't see the field for whoever he signs with for three years. We need DT's now!!!
Flowers will be a miss IMO unless UKO and Potoae show up, reason I say that is it's not like qualifying DT's are abundant on the west coast.

I sure do hope Washington blows it again this year so we have a better chance at some of thier recruits. Sione would be a major snake from them.

It kind of blows my mind that Washington has a really really good recruiting class so far...Uh hello, does 0-12 mean anything to you mr. 4* stud?

Regarding Udubs recruiting class, they have a new coaching staff & a lot of hype so there's some excitement there. But as soon as they start the season 0-6 or 1-5 all those recruits will start to reconsider. Same thing happened last year.

There's definitely some logic in this post...
LSU
IDAHO
USC
@ Stanford
@ Notre Dame
ARIZONA
@ Arizona State
OREGON
@ UCLA
@ Oregon State
WASHINGTON STATE
CALIFORNIA
Locker needs to get past game three healthy which I don't think he will with that putrid OL. Even if UW beats Idaho, they don't have one matchup they'll be favored in until the apple cup.
They very well could be 1-9 heading into the Apple Cup after looking at that schedule. Come on Idaho! make it back-to-back 0-fers!

Rivals has an article that says Potoae wanted to sign along with another player. Anyone mind telling us what player that is?

When UO heads to Seattle, I could see UW having 1 win with a shot at pulling off a win against ASU.

In fact, I would bet they get beat by 21+ points more times this year, then the games they win.

Is there any reason to hope/assume the Potoae kid will cahnge his mind all of a sudden and de-commit from UW? I believe he has family there or something as well. So isn't it a waste of time?

Huskies should be 1-2 after their first three games, but even if they were 0-3 I think I need a little more evidence we think he will jump ship. If 0-12 didn't do it, what's a few more losses??

I think he meant that 0-3 would be the total wins for the year they could expect, not the start to their season.
