"best fit where you can play and develop" ✔️✔️ that was always the goal. At 1st people questioned why UW? He had all those big name schools offer him. Now, they say UW is a big name school. 🥴 Yeah, we knew that. Paki is home
#uw
#huskies
move in day and nationals the same week!
One of the biggest mistakes HS players make every year and to lesser degree portal transfers is thinking you have to pick the biggest name brand school rather than the best fit where you can play and develop, can make League from anywhere, Draft constantly proves that

Recruits should take notice. DeBoer & Huff saw something special in Paki long before the stars and awards his Sophomore year. People questioned Paki's quick and early commit. Paki understood the vision and now it has materialized.

"I'm going to be at home. I got the invite to go to Detroit. For me, it wasn't really attractive. They told me you can only bring like 15 people. I'm Polynesian so it's not normal to only have 15 family members and have to pick between them."
