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.

Sione Potoae...very cool to hear, now we have to see how it plays out!

Flowers and Potoae would be great!

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. :D 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? :roll:

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. :lol: 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.
