Jimmy Lake and the rest of the Washington football staff have been making the most of the extended recruiting dead period caused by some of the COVID-19 fallout. A special shoutout to the media/video team for putting out incredible graphics and short videos displaying the University of Washington throughout this period.
A big switch up from the Chris Petersen era, Lake has put extra emphasis on the in-state class, and with the inability to hold any type of visits, FaceTime and social media marketing are the only way schools can sell themselves to a player.
Washington has done a great job selling the hometown hero narrative, using players like Mario Bailey, Lawyer Milloy, Budda Baker, and Myles Gaskin to sell that appeal to the local stars.
