While we are all mad at Fisch he did do a lot of things very well. One was recruit the prototypical player to that position. 300 pound lineman, 6’ + corner backs. Strong defensive ends that were actually big and strong.
I have my doubts that CBB will continue recruiting in this way and it worries me

Seconded as being worried about Brennan's staff being able to duplicate Fisch's recruiting style/ability. Not to many staffs can in my opinion.
That was the underrated part of Fisch's staff, talent evaluation was spot on. Davis and Prysock were only 3 star recruits on 247 that were obviously very underrated(Prysock was a high 3). Both had prototypical size and great athletic attributes. Both came from well known High School programs(Millikin and Bishop Alemany), so it wasn't like they were under the radar with recruiters. Fisch and staff seem to look at physical attributes first and then go from there in their evaluation, which seems like a good route to take at a school like ours. Especially if you believe in your ability to coach em up.
Sort of off topic, but I found last night that Jonah Coleman's first scholarship offer came from none other than........San Jose St. Just found that to be an interestingly depressing tidbit.
Can someone catch me up on the comings and goings of UofA players. I know that Williams and Mohammed and Coleman went to Washington and our big DT went to Texas. Last I knew Prysock, Davis, Pulido are still in the portal. Kongaita (sp) I'm not sure if he landed somewhere or is in the portal still. I'm sure I missed some but I need a new program. Thank you.
Since I'm a dumbass and don't know how to imbed Tweets, I saw that Prysock just tweeted about 20 minutes ago, a U of A jersey with his name on it that's selling on Fanatics. Says its an Arizona Wildcats Nike Pick-A-Player NIL Replica Football Jersey.

I think he may be measuring how much we want him by how many jerseys he sells. That is just a guess but it would do his sales better if he announced he was all in with us

I saw that and can’t figure out the meaning.
It's a dick move. Greg Biggens already has a crystal ball of Prysock going to UW.
I’d definitely try to return it if he left.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?
I guess we still have a chance with Prysock. It appears Prysock and Davis are a package deal. I think they will be in spring football at UA before making a decision in the spring during the spring transfer portal.

Prysock gone.
After the shit he pulled this week, I’m ok with this.
He can go pound sand.
Exactly. I am pretty meh about most transfers out, whatever, but to soak UA faithful for a few bucks, then leave and make the product worthless is a total dick move. Fuck him. Hope he ends up on the bench.
Have to wonder what motivated him to show such low class behavior. Even if you take out the jersey but did he come back to work on TDavis, Ward and Deuce Davis?
Hoping the new staff told him to go and called him out on things.

Will fit in with Fisch perfectly with this BS.
There is nothing wrong with this
I couldn't agree more. It was a very considerate and sincere goodbye. I don't understand why people are upset about the jersey sale nothing burger. You didn't have to buy his jersey people but you did before he had made a final decision. That's on you. He maximized his profits and that's well within the parameters of the law. Always, always maximize your profits. If people don't like it, tough sh*t. It's just the name of the game. Deal with it. As far as I'm concerned his transfer to UW was the right decision. I wish him the very best.
I get that these guys need to make decisions which they think are best for them but I can't imagine it would near as cool in the future to come back to Washington as it would be to come back to U of A as a Wildcat. Ephisians now won't be able to come back to Tucson as a revered alumni.

Yep… he’s got NFL potential and would have likely went into draft next year… don’t see the upside in going to UW for 1 year with a completely gutted D from their championship run.
Would have seemed like we are a better choice to showcase ability for last year but what do we know

I disagree. I think the jersey thing was classless. Why post a link to a jersey sale if you are leaving? Profits aren't always the most important thing in life. No he didn't do anything illegal but is tasteless.
Hs transfer to UDub was the right move because he was a total asshat for trolling the fanbase.
He says he wasn’t trying to sell jerseys but rather wanted us to remember him. Yea right. Either way he has a lot to learn. Enjoy your time up north
