#1 Washington Husky Recruit - Dominique Blackman

Now that recruits have made their commitments official, I'll have a look at each of the players signed to play for UW in the fall. Look for articles, links, videos and anything else I can dig up.

Dominique Blackman- Quarterback (Carson Senior HS - Carson, CA)
Blackman is huge - 6'5" 250 lbs. - so he draws the obvious comparisons to guys like Daunte Culpepper, Byron Leftwich and JaMarcus Russell. Also had offers from the likes of Oregon, ASU and Nebraska.
  • Bio on GoHuskies.com includes vitals, accolades and a nice highlight video.
  • Scout.com's take: 3-stars, #58 QB"A strong arm that can make the deep throw and tough pass. Release is a little slow and he's not very athletic, but he's got tremendous size and is a leader."
  • Rivals.com also gives Blackman 3-stars, ranked #27 QB for pro-style offense. Click on the highlight video listed on the right hand side to see clips of Blackman at a camp.
  • Seattle Times article detailing Blackman's commitment in August
