'19 TN CB Woodi Washington

The point is that the fools who are dismissing the highest rated in-state prospect, who happens to play at a position of need for us, will be wishing we had a db this good in a few years.

So you complained when Jones took players that didn't have "committable offers" from schools like Bama (under Pruitt) and the players were busts.

And now the same guy from Bama doesn't pursue a player that has no committable SEC offers, except Arky and you complain about that too.

Maybe you just like to complain? 🤔

What if the highest rated guy in our state couldn't hold the jock of the 9th rated player in a different state?

Good enough for Oklahoma. Where is their program at compared to ours right now? They can afford to be selective, so I'd say Washington is pretty good.

I get he was never coming here, but let's not act like he isn't that good just because he didn't pick UT.

How many db's is ou producing for the nfl? Hell, how many db's is the big 12 producing in that sh!tty defensive conference? Each team scores 45+ pts a game. No team in that conference is a benchmark for db evaluations. Tcu (patterson) is the closest in terms of good defensive schemes

LoL. He’s not a bad player, but it appears that UT wasn’t the only school that was skeptical about his high ranking.

It will be interesting to see how his career goes in the Big12, where defense is optional.

Yes, it’s those “fools” like CJP who know a thing or two about coaching DBs.

Why do insist on making a fool of yourself every time you post?

Well how is he the #1 player in the state at least according to Rivals? Something isn't adding up.

Unfortunately I think it is a bit of spoiled milk on the fans part. I think you try hard to get him even if he is not a shoe in because some of it is about perception.

Is he related to "Jabril Washington" who was at Alabama a few years ago from West Tn? Our in state board is disappointing.

Oklahoma and Oregon are having surprisingly great years on the recruiting trail.

Quick question: whos more reliable in their evaluations pruitt, saban, urban & co or rivals recruiting services?

It says a lot that he committed to a school he never visited. He didnt have a committable offer from bama, ut (conveniently got hurt right before his scheduled camp with ut), and osu. Hence, he lives in sec country (conference that produces the most nfl db's), but he goes to the big 12 (worst group of db's of the power 5 conferences). You are right, something doesn't add up. His ranking

True, but look at the year Oklahoma had last year compared to UT in terms of record and playing in the spotlight. Maybe that is a factor

You are correct in terms of team accomplishment/recognition, but look at their defensive stats. Total defensive: Tennessee 81 OU 67. Small gap for a team that went 4-8 compared to an 12-2 team that made the final 4.

Over the past 4 years, ou has made 2 final fours and several big 12 titles. They accumulated 1 draft pick agmonst their secondary. Over the same timeframe, with incompetent coaching (butch and crew) ut has managed 2 db's drafted. So hes not going to a coaching staff, university, or conference that has a pedigree of getting db's to the league. How often do top rated db's in sec country go to the big 12?

How about if we act like we don't care because TN didn't pursue hard and he's not coming?

Some of you people I don’t understand , You do realize why we hired CJP at Tennessee right ? You surely remember what his job was at Alabama and Florida state right ? To say he knows what a CB is supposed to be and if he’s good enough to play in his defenses is an understatement . What I can’t figure out is how he went from being an expert in his last two stops and a top recruiter in the country to being somebody that is questionable on his ability to judge talent simply because he took the HC job here. Top talent in a state that’s in the Sec with only an offer from Arky and he goes to the big 12 ... there has to be a reason for that .#BunchaHandWringgers.

Well I pray Woodi shows out and goes top 10 in the NFL draft as a Junior, at OK.
 
Would have been nice if he had gotten out of the way of his own ego and camped at UT. Then we'd have a better idea of how Pruitt felt about his ability. Nothing wrong with Pruitt asking a kid to "come show me what you got".

Agreed. But some on here felt that he didnt need to camp. Well obviously Pruitt felt otherwise.

Vq on podcast said he committed to Oklahoma sight unseen as in never visited there..... with all those "offers" he does that? That is a bit odd just makes me it sound even more like we weren't only ones saying he needs to camp

We’ll see if Oklahoma honors his “commitment”
