A bit off topic, but as to the point(s) that Duff sometimes makes, I just browsed through the 247 recruiting ranking specifics and the Washington Huskies are ranked #17. Seven of their 19 commits are Polynesian guys.

I think that a key element of our return to high quality needs to entail an emphasis on those players. Not rocket science. We've done it before, as been noted here on AB.

There's a certain hard core LDS subset of that group that will be hard to pull away from Utah, USU, and BYU, but we need to be in the game.

Their top recruit is poly and he’s massive and highly rated. We need in that scene, bad.

Take yourself a gander at Oregon's class, too.

This should not have been complicated for the previous staff to understand, but generally speaking it's really difficult to have success in the west if you don't have a strong Poly pipeline. They deeply, deeply ****ed up in not capitalizing on Sefo's success here with the Poly community. In fact, I would go so far as to contend that the failure to successfuly recruit Poly kids to CU was the biggest recruiting mistake the last staff made (Although there were so many I'm sure everyone has their favorite).

My biggest mistake they made was losing too much.

Will MT honor all of the offers put out by the previous staff?

iirc, we had 19 and it has dropped to 15. (I may be slightly off.) I think he'd like to get Toler back. I think there are a few he'll cut loose. So, maybe around 12?

Based on his interviews today, his attitude will be that he has to believe the player is good enough to beat USC and Washington. If not, he is not going to settle.

How many Polys does UGA have in the trenches? I agree with you, bc there are so many more Poly kids in CA and UT, but I'm all for going a different route if it can get us to the same location as fast, or possibly faster . . .
