Evaluating UW s Recruiting Using Expected Outcomes By UWdadVanc on Jan 27, 2021, 4:51pm PST 37
It is that time of year when there are stories about how ‘stars matter in recruiting and such. This is my take on the subject for this year. Despite the use of a bunch of math throughout this fanpost, this in no way should be viewed as anything other than a ‘quick-and-dirty analysis.
This year among Husky fans there is more than a little grumbling about how low UW s recruiting class is rated. We know that both Lake and Petersen have said that they don t care about those recruiting ratings from the recruiting services. But we also know that UW does offer recruits that are rated highly on those recruiting sites-along with ones that are not rated as highly.

Building a Fence: Keeping Washington Blue Chips Home
Everyone around UWDawgpound is feeling a bit down about some of the recruiting misses lately on homegrown blue chip players and wondering why players seem to be deserting the hometown squad to play elsewhere. Emeka Egbuka is heading to Ohio State, and it seems like JT Tuimolau is likely headed elsewhere as well. Some are staying home, like Sam Huard, but it feels like more misses than hits. This begs the question:

The short answer is:

They re not getting 100% of the top players in the state. They never have and they never will, nor will any school keep all the best homegrown players for themselves. Players are people, and they pick schools for all kinds of reasons. Geographic proximity to their high school is a big one, but far from the only one. Top players in every state cross state lines all the time, and not just from the high-density talent

He s now a full Sample.
Into his 24th career game with the Cincinnati Bengals, Drew Sample had showed himself worthy of serving as a starting NFL tight end by demonstrating ample receiving and blocking abilities.
The former University of Washington player had done everything at the next level except score.
On Sunday, the 6-foot-5, 258-pounder fixed that by hauling in an 8-yard touchdown pass from Bengals quarterback Brandon Allen at the outset of a 37-31 victory over the Houston Texans on the road.
