Are you saying Michigan boosters were tweeting Garnett directly? Wow, that sure seems like a recruiting violation to me. . .

And, of course, amid their own avalanche of despair... - Redrum - 01-26-2012

How pathetic can they get?  On the outside looking in,  Kal fans take heart that....(wait for it)  in Garnett's announcement show, the T-shirts from the various contenders were displayed behind Garnett and....well, we'll let the boys from Bear Insider take it from there:

Post #1
"Having that Cal logo out in front of media and people only helps us, even if we're up there just to get turned down."

Post #2
"Completely agree with this. Turning down an offer from Cal is still considered big news, which is why he has us up there. That the local university didn't even make the wall is pretty big."


Crap!!  We could have rigged it so we got turned down and gotten lots of media exposure with a T-shirt logo.  Man, we got played

I noticed a lot of Michigan tweets when I searched for Josh Garnett and @IamJoshG, but there's no way I was going to do likewise. Not only would it be a recruiting violation, but I feel that choosing a college is an important step for any high schooler, and it shouldn't be based on the tweets of some middle-aged sports fan.

We're picking up a lot of OL this year because we had been a little sparse in previous recruiting classes. Also, remember that there are five positions on the line, so five OL in a class is not that many. Our running game relies on a good line, and we're sending linemen to the NFL, so good linemen are coming our way.

Great news. Seems like Garnett is intelligent, aggressive and skillful -- good combination for an OL.  Maybe DeCastro can give him some pearls of wisdom before he heads to the NFL.

Awesome news.  1 for 4.  Time to make it a 4-fer and reel in Peat, Murphy and Shittu.

Just saw this from a reporter in Seattle:

Josh Garnett: ''We're gonna shock the recruiting world with some five-star recruits next Wednesday''

Well, "some" means more than one, and could mean more than two.

Re: Joshua Garnett to... - washingtonismoney - 01-26-2012

I was more interested in "shock" than "some", to be honest. The recruiting world is already anticipating a potential big finish to the class. Does Garnett know something the rest of the recruiting world doesn't?

Moose Martin just tweeted as follows:

"Landing potentially multiple 5 star linemen... I see ya @StanfordFball. TWU appears to have a bright future"

Washington fans are being pretty reasonable - JohnR34231 - 01-27-2012

Typical response is "Josh, while we plan on kicking your butt for four years, if I were you I just might have done the same thing".

UW fans will be rudely surprised when the Stanford linebacking corps decides to hold an in-game party in the Husky backfield all game long.  Keith Price will be the guest of honor, I believe.
