Laid back in an old saloon, with a peso in my hand
Watchin’ flies and children on the street
And I catch a glimpse of black-eyed Dots who giggle when I smile
There’s a little Dot who wants to shine my feet
- The transfer wheel in the sky keeps on turning. The Dawgs picked up a couple more commitments in the last 24 hours. First, they finally picked up an edge rusher in Ohio State’s Logan Jones. Jones was something of a BINO (a Buckeye in name only) since he saw almost no time on the field behind their loaded defensive front. He previously excelled at Idaho State, so it might be more appropriate to think of him as an FCS standout coming to Montlake than an Ohio St player.
- The Dawgs addressed another position of need by poaching a contributor from a conference rival. Lake Stevens native Jayden Limar was nearly a Husky out of high school, but ended up at Oregon instead. He worked his way into a star-studded backfield rotation for the Ducks this season, but will head back to Seattle to give a more powerful complement to the backfield that lost Jonah Coleman to graduation and Adam Mohammed to transfer.
- Over at On Montlake, Christian Caple goes a few layers deeper on DL transfer Darin Conley. The Ball State transfer has the size that Ryan Walters likes for hybrid interior/exterior defensive linemen. The profile is also probably the only recruiting story you will read this year with the line, “A lot of people know me as a plant guy.”
- In a rare story away from the transfer portal, 247 Sports has an update on the practices at the Polynesian Bowl. Incoming UW DL TI Umu-Cais was listed as one of the standout performers from the early sessions.
