BREAKING: Huskies Add Four-Star Tight End Prospect

Just saw that. Really big considering that the Huskies haven't added a TE since the 2017 class.

Man that kid really can do it all. They're just highlights, but he was just blowing guys off the line of scrimmage. Looks like a guy who fits what the Huskies want from their TEs really well.

Some big name schools were after that kid including USC, LSU, Bama, UGA, etc ..

Apparently he's best friends with Ethan Garbers which probably played a role in his deciding to commit to UW.

Definitely a great signing. Given the fact that we didn't sign a TE in the 2019 or 2018 classes, this is huge. Watching his highlights he shows a really great ability to put defenders on their backs and also uses his frame well to get open and make contested catches. Only thing I can knock him on is that he looks a bit sluggish in and out of his breaks, but I assume with time that'll be improved and that's to be expected when you're 6'6 250lbs.

Love this commit. Go Dawgs!!!!

His tape looks great. Really great blocking TE who can run routes well and makes some nice catches. Big get for a big need. I suspect we'll be shooting to take one more TE for the class so great start for that position for the 2020 class.
WOOF!!!

Someone needs to ask for his birth certificate because he looks older than Bill Cosby.

UW hasn't offered him. Makes no sense.

Not trying to say he will be T.J. Hockenson, but his size and overall well rounded game compare pretty well.

We're not Oregon, we don't just offer anyone. Throughout Petersen's tenure he has been very selective with who the program offers scholarships.

I'm not offering a prediction on if we will offer him, but UW has 52 known offers out and over the last 3 recruiting cycles the team has offered between 80-100 guys, so there is still a possibility.

I don't think the OKG thing is bullshit, otherwise we'd be sending out offers to every top prospect across the country. There could be a number of reasons for not offering him.

I know this is early, but the "expert" crystal ball projections for WRs Johnny Wilson and Jalen McMillan both have them going to UW.

Johnny Wilson, Calabasas, Wide Receiver

Jalen McMillan, San Joaquin Memorial, Wide Receiver

For what it's worth, it's nice to see UW in the center. Could mean we're the favorites for him, which I think and believe we are.

According to one source he's all UW.

This is a pretty good, concise run-down of where we stand with 2021 prospects.

Hadn't heard of this guy:

Moliki Matavao, Liberty, Tight End

But Blair Angulo has him projected to go to UW. #3 ranked TE and #86 overall ranked player.

Good to hear. I believe I read that he wants to commit before the school year starts which is promising.
