Do We Need Another Washington DT

Post by CelticCat » Thu Jul 18, 2019 2:40 pm

Cuz there's one available...

I assume not, I hope Choate learned his lesson last time about taking a transfer who was previously dismissed for violation of team rules. But nothing would surprise me.

Every situation is different. Hard to know why he was dismissed and what the situation was leading up to the dismissal. Choate and obviously Kane have strong ties to the current UW staff, and because of those ties I totally trust them.

The bigger question might be whether or not we have any available $$

Well, if Dominic Brown isn’t showing up, then there is probably money available.

Was that Patu kid committed to the Griz for a while? I feel like I remember that.

Fwiw, Choate does follow him on the good ol Twitter. Don't know when he started. He does not follow Choate.

Looking at the good ol' twitter, too, looks like there were three schools he was considering, Boise, WSU, and Utah. He ended up committing to Utah. Then a few months later UW comes knocking and decommits from Utah and 6 days later changes committment UW. All the schools involved in the finals steps of his recruiting have been great programs recently. Now, the fact that he was dismissed from the team, I agree, does not look good for him or really on MSU's program if Choate decides to bring him on board and he flops. However, there's the flip side that could change all of our opinions about the past and picking up players with questionable history. I guess we'll see what happens.

Side note: Looks like he was a running back in high school. Has some pretty quick feet. If he has those quick feet and moves at almost 300lbs he's be a force to be reckoned with.

Looks like they had him out for a visit but he took the PWO option at UW.

Dom Brown? He was a corner signing out of California who decided to purse junior college instead of coming to MSU this fall. But hopefully people can put two and two together on what that means.

This, but there may or may not be a change of plans.

Perhaps I'm slow, but does that mean it's a grades issue?

Why wouldn’t Choate try and bring these kids in? They are coming from a place he has been and a system he uses. We are fools if we don’t at least reach out to them and try and bring them in.

It depends on the reason he was dismissed from his team, don't you think?

Well, considering that Choate came from there and knows the coaching staff very well, if it is for a serious thing I am sure they would tell him that and he wouldn’t spend a second of his time going after him. Being that someone said he followed him on Twitter, it makes me think that maybe it wasn’t a very serious thing and that Choate has an interest in pursuing him.

Ya you could be right, it's interesting he follows him on Twitter. I just don't see Choate taking another risk on a transfer with possible character issues after the Hale/Gardenhire embarrassment. And rightfully so.
But it depends on what the issue was. I have no idea. But I know that talented guys don't get kicked off a team for minor issues.

Do we even know when Choate started following him on Twitter? Was it a week ago or when the guy was still in high school?

Choate is wayyyyyy down on his follower list. Had to have been when he was in high school.
