From Oregon commitment Tyson Coleman:

"Coach Sarkisian asked me if it would make a difference if he got down on his knee and proposed to me. I said 'you don't need to do that.' And he said 'It's my job to.' We were on the phone and he said, 'all right, right now I'm getting down on one knee and proposing to you, and it's your to job to accept it.''

I wonder what Chip Kelly says to recruits? Something tells me he isn't telling young men he's down on one knee for them.

This is definitely creepy, and somewhat ironic, because UW is doing all the bowing down!

If I was a recruit and heard a coach saying that I would run.

If I heard a guy get down on one knee to get me, I got two words for him: Good and bye.

And would we want a player that said yes?

You learn from your parents as a child to run from these types of questions...bloody odd question!

this explains why those highly rated recruits washington gets always turn out to be giant roast beef vaginas in college.

Yeah Kiffin's plea to recruits is probably quite the mouthful, if you know what I mean.
