This is lynnon Christian Senior Kidden State and you're listening to the Top one hundred
0:04
Countdown on Welcome Preps Podcasts with Tyler and Roland Goings. Greetings, and welcome
0:34
into the watcom Preps podcast. This is episode two hundred and thirty four,
0:39
the last of ten podcasts. As we count down the Top one hundred.
0:43
I'm Rylan Spencer along with me as always as Tyler Anderson of watcum Preps.
0:48
Tyler, how we doing well? I'm doing pretty darn good. We have
0:52
finally reached the end of this list, and we're recording this when we're about
0:58
halfway through the list. So don't don't know how much you know, pain
1:02
and misery people are giving me for this list quite yet, but I'm sure
1:06
it'll be I'm sure it'll be up there. But at the same time,
1:10
there's a lot of grateful people and hopefully you know, people love lists,
1:14
you know, That's what I've learned, and and uh, doing one of
1:18
these is you know, a lot of people have asked me, doesn't this
1:22
isn't that? Aren't you just bringing on a lot of like unwanted stuff?
1:26
And I said yeah, But at the same at the end At the same
1:30
time, I've been doing this long enough now to where the people that are
1:34
bringing the unwanted stuff, I probably don't really care about their opinions as much.
1:42
You don't all it's like it's it's like it's like there's no coaches that
1:47
are, you know, giving me a hard time about this because the respect
1:49
levels there both ways. So so anyways, I'm excited to finish off the
1:57
seventh year of doing this and and hopefully I can keep going with it.
2:00
You want to know the beauty of America, Tyler tell me Ryland, anybody
2:06
that wants to complain about something can make their own damn lists and do whatever
2:09
they want. That's true, right, that's true. Yeah, well you
2:13
don't like it, make your own list, create a podcast, start watkom
2:16
prehaps Junior you know, yeah, yeah, well don't do that, right,
2:22
No, but no, I totally understand, and and you know me,
2:24
I do not like controversy. I don't want to argue me on the
2:29
other end, right, But I put it. I put this all into
2:34
a really good context. Years ago when I this was ten years ago,
2:38
I was doing these all decade teams from Walkham County and I did an All
2:43
eighties Decade team. I did a first, second, third team for the
2:46
entire county, and this was in twenty thirteen. This was a long time
2:52
ago, and no one really knew who I was yet, which is fine.
2:57
And my first team quarterback with Sean Lynnville from Bellingham, he was two
3:01
time All state quarterback. And my second team, I believe, was Doug
3:07
Peterson, and I got ripped apart for that, like you wouldn't believe he
3:15
went to the NFL, don't you know that? Blah blah blah blah blah
3:17
blah blah. And then I finally couldn't take it anymore and I wrote this
3:22
long thing and it shut everybody up. And you'll really appreciate this because it
3:25
kind of goes to what you really like. But I said, this is
3:30
just about what you did in high school. And if I put together an
3:35
All NCUBA nineties team for quarterback, I would not pick Tom Brady, but
3:42
I would probably pick Tommy Fraser. Yes, you know who didn't play in
3:46
the NFL, and Tom Brady is the goat, And where would be the
3:51
argument there? So it's not about what you did, you know, the
3:54
next level or anything. And I think that nobody complained about that after that,
4:00
and that really kind of calmed down everyone, and they said, okay,
4:02
okay, because I could be really lazy and just say, oh yeah,
4:05
it's these all these guys that went on to the next level or whatever,
4:10
and but it wasn't about that. And I think people have understood over
4:14
the years now that I do put a lot of effort into this, and
4:18
and if there's people that are going to there's always gonna be people that are
4:21
going to complain. But those are people that want to complain that just want
4:25
to, you know, looking for something. And that's there's a you know,
4:29
Tyler. For years, I did all state teams. Then I kind
4:30
of kind of got away from all state teams and did all State Awards is
4:35
what it was, you know, Player Years stuff like that. And I
4:40
used to get people just coming after me, and I would just say to
4:42
him, did you see those guys play? The guys that I named,
4:46
did you see them play in person? Because I did, Yeah, I
4:48
saw everybody play in person that I mentioned, Yeah, you know, and
4:51
if I didn't, I watched three or four of their game films, you
4:55
know, so at the end of the day, I look at it and
4:57
I go, hey, I don't know an explanation, dame. Anybody smile
5:00
list. You don't like it, go make your own. There's nothing stopping
5:03
you. There's there's websites out there. What's the one blogger or something?
5:09
You know, go start one? You know, Tyler, what do you
5:12
use? You use word press? Yeah? Use WordPress. Anybody has the
5:15
ability to go do that, Go do it? Yeah. Yeah, you
5:18
know, nothing stopping it. Won't take any time or anything out of your
5:21
life. Yeah, no, not at all. Yeah, you won't be
5:25
on here talking about advertisements. Did we already talk about anytime fitness? I
5:30
don't think so. Anytime Fitness The sponsor of the top one hundred countdown three
5:33
locations Ferndale, Linden, North, Tyler, we've talked about what ninety nine
5:39
guys. Yeah, we got ninety nine problems and Caden site is number one.
5:46
Tyler. Here we go, six four two d and thirty pounds tight
5:49
end linebacker. He is a senior from Lynden Christians, number twenty five.
5:55
Cayden Stite, Well, the progression is amazing. Saw him as a sophomore
6:01
and kind of made me go ooh a few times, like who's that kid?
6:06
That he is making plays and put him on the list at number ninety
6:12
two as a sophomore. Making the list as a sophomore's tough. And but
6:16
he barely made the list last year kind of the same thing. Made a
6:20
big jump and I had him at number thirty five last year, and you
6:28
know, that's that's that's pretty good. I did mention on the post where
6:32
I named him number thirty five that he could very well be a top ten
6:38
player as a senior. And going into this year, he was one of
6:44
those guys that had in my head is yeah, he'll probably be a top
6:46
ten guy. It never crossed my mind in August that he will be the
6:51
number one guy. And he had the potential. They I mean, they
6:56
all have the potential, but he wouldn't let me take him out of that
7:03
spot. Basically with his play and defensively, it was amazing. He was
7:11
there all year as just this overwhelmingly great defensive player that would never make mistakes,
7:19
tackling machine. He was named the Defensive Player of the Year for Northwest
7:24
Conference one A finished with one hundred and seven and a half tackles, which
7:29
is just crazy. The way I do tackles to get over one hundred in
7:32
any season and nine and a half tackles for lost, two passes broken up,
7:38
a forced fumble, a fumber recovery, and interception that he returned forty
7:41
four yards. I remember when I asked coach Turpstra before the season started who
7:46
he got returning kicks, and he goes, well, you know, Dawson
7:51
Bauma's good, Mick Owen can do it. And then he he kind of
7:57
chuckled and looked down and he goes and he looked back at me, and
8:01
he goes, it's really hard for me to take Cayden Stite out of there
8:07
right now. I said what, And he goes, he he is determined
8:15
to be a kick returner, And I just thought, are you kidding me?
8:18
And he goes, He's he's gotten so much faster and so much just
8:24
more athletic this past offseason that I'm gonna have to, like, you know,
8:30
he's like, I'm gonna have to like shake a stick at him to
8:31
get him out of there, Like he will not leave that area. And
8:35
I just thought, that's really cool when you got your star player that wants
8:39
to do stuff like that and help your team. And he did return four
8:43
kickoffs for fifty nine yards, so he did get some opportunities there. Offensively,
8:50
his emergence as the season went on just grew more and more. Started
8:54
the year as like a true tight end, would go split out every once
8:58
in a while make a playoff. I even caught a touchdown that week one
9:01
game against Lakeside. It was their only score of the game, and that
9:03
was just on a quick pass the outside and let him do all the moves.
9:07
But as the season war on, they would do little things where they
9:11
go into the wishbone and he would be the main recipient of those carries.
9:15
That happened eleven times. He ran for forty seven yards and two touchdowns,
9:18
including the game winner at Nuksack Valley and that really really great game where they
9:22
won by a single point. I think it was twenty one to twenty.
9:26
But as the season kept going, his abilities on the offensive side of the
9:31
ball just kept getting better and better, where he had these huge games where
9:35
he'd catch a ton of passes and have like I think there was two weeks
9:39
in a row where he had three touchdowns in each game in a row,
9:43
and all of a sudden, he just kept climbing up the receiving charts,
9:50
and I thought, because I think as a defensive player, I thought,
9:52
Okay, he'll catch twenty balls or whatever. But he just kind of kept
9:56
doing getting better and better, which is which was amazing because I just wasn't
10:03
expecting that. But they were using him in a way where they were finding
10:05
the mismatches. And Linn and Christian will always there will always be a mismatch
10:11
because they just always have that great size. But when you could find that
10:13
one mismatch that really works and you can just you could keep going to it.
10:18
There were drives, I want to say, that first round playoff game
10:24
that was played at Blaine. I know Coach Wood was at that game and
10:28
I saw it on film. Now that was when I was in yakamav But
10:31
there was like a drive where it was just the Cadence Stipe drive. Let's
10:35
just throw it to him every play untilways score a touchdown? Shall we okay?
10:37
And they just did it like it would. It was like it was
10:41
no problem. And and I just and you know what it's like being coaching
10:46
now, and I've sat up in enough booths to know where there's a lot
10:50
of coaches that that, uh, they just go run it again, run
10:54
it again. If they're not going to adjust to it, let's just run
10:58
it again. And that and that's and that was the feel for that ended
11:01
up with forty five catches for seven hundred and fourteen yards and ten touchdowns.
11:05
It was named All Conference tight End First Team. And that was so cool
11:11
to see, knowing that that's where he's going to be looked at at the
11:13
next level is on the offensive side of the ball. And he's he's got
11:18
a great way of high pointing the ball and catches everything, has moves and
11:24
ends. The size, I mean, he was six to two forever,
11:28
well not anymore. He is no longer that six two, two hundred pound
11:31
player like you said earlier, six four, two hundred and thirty pounds,
11:35
bigger, stronger, and he got so much faster over the offseason. All
11:39
that combined together. Uh, that's just that's just, you know, a
11:46
no brainer for Eastern. I mean when they offered him. I was at
11:48
Eastern camp when it happened. I remember congratulating coach Best. I said,
11:54
I said, hey, congratulations on Stite, and he just stonefaced me and
11:58
looked right at me and he goes, don't congratulate me, he we don't.
12:01
He's not he hasn't signed yet. And I said, well, you
12:05
went after a great one. He goes all right, and he walked off
12:09
U and and and as soon as he's signed, I you know, I
12:15
just put hashtag e KG because he is that Eastern kind of guy. He's
12:20
just he's just that raw bone toughness. But he has great athleticism. It's
12:24
a it's a fantastic combo. And there hasn't been many guys that have jumped
12:31
from thirty five to one on the top one hundred list. I know Spencer
12:35
Lloyd I think had the biggest jumped. He was number fifty as a junior,
12:39
jumped up to number one his senior year and uh, what a great
12:43
overall year for him. Has a ton of respect from the other coaching staffs.
12:48
I know that firsthand. It's it's uh, you know, always have
12:54
to know where number twenty five is. He will he will make you pay
12:56
on the field on both sides of the ball. Well, Tyler, I'm
13:01
gonna I'm gonna start my own list because I'm looking at his sophomore year here
13:07
and you might have you might have snubbed him a little here. Yeah,
13:13
fifty tackles, six tackles for a lost, three sacks, three pass deflections,
13:16
and two forced fumbles. Yeah, that's a pretty good year. That's
13:20
a very good year. And you had him at number ninety two. Well,
13:24
you know, I'll have to go back because he did probably because he
13:28
didn't play any offense. One reception thirteen yards. Don't tell me he didn't
13:31
play offense. You got it. Didn't play much. Yeah, yeah,
13:39
I mean, by the way, six two one ninety and then as a
13:43
as a junior six to two ten. I mean you talk about progression and
13:48
by the way, fifty seven tackles, five and a half for a loss,
13:52
two forced fumbles, two passes broken up, two fumble recoveries, two
13:54
interceptions for fifteen yards, and eight receptions for one hundred and fifty two years
13:58
and two touchdowns as a jew here Yeah, I mean when you look at
14:01
the jump that he may do a senior year, wow, I mean yeah,
14:07
yeah, So looking over at what they're going to say or what they
14:11
say from Eastern Caden is a multi sport athlete who impressed us at our team
14:16
camp. He plays with great violence, is ultra competitive, excels at making
14:20
contested catches and breaking tackles. He possesses the length and athleticism to play the
14:26
Y and the F for us in our offense. He is an excellent student,
14:30
the definition of a true football player, and has a very high ceiling.
14:33
I completely agree with that when you talk about tremendous student. He did
14:39
have an offer from Columbia. Yeah, that says a lot right there.
14:43
Yeah, Ivy League, I mean, yes, that's really tough to do.
14:48
I mean, you don't first off, those schools don't really offer unless
14:52
you are a tremendous, tremendous student. I mean, it's not like some
14:56
schools where it's like, yeah, we know we can get them in.
14:58
No, right, they're not going to take a chance at you unless they
15:01
know for a fact you're getting into school. Yeah, you know, they're
15:05
not going to go, ah, maybe we can send him to a JUCO
15:09
and sneak him in, you know, a year too late. No,
15:11
Nope, not at the Ivy's. At the Ivy's, they they only look
15:15
at it and go, this guy could be a four point zero here and
15:18
if not, then yeah, go on to the next kid. Yeah,
15:22
yep, they just don't do it. That's just not the way it works.
15:24
I mean it's uh says a lot, says a lot that a kid
15:26
gets an offer from the IVY leagues. Yeah, I know. The first
15:31
time Brandon Huffman saw him, I remember i'd given Huffman I went to the
15:37
game against was a Bellevue Christian, Belvy Christian. He went to the game
15:41
against Renting I think, yes, yes, which was a couple of weeks
15:45
later, a week later or something. Yeah, And I remember telling him,
15:48
all right, we know about a couple of these guys. Here's a
15:52
couple of other ones. Keep an eye on guys that you know may progress
15:56
into things. One was Caden Stite, one was Tyson by Him, the
16:00
other one was Dawson Bauma, Bradon Qick. There, it was all a
16:04
bunch of guys that it was like, tell me what you think There's something
16:10
there in pretty much all of them. I don't know how many of them
16:12
are going to truly translate to the college game. And during the game,
16:17
I remember getting a text message from him and it was just like, holy
16:21
crap, you're right, this sight kid is really good. Yeah, you
16:25
know, And I remember going, yes, that's the one that really stood
16:29
out to me because his game was just so you could watch it and just
16:33
go like the way he gets around, the way he hits just everything,
16:38
you know. It was it was very much one of those things where you're
16:41
like, I don't know what position he's going to play at the next level.
16:45
You know, if he continues to grow, he might end up being
16:47
a d ND, you know, like at that time, and it was
16:49
like, I don't I don't know what it is. And then and I
16:52
remember Huffan telling me he's I don't know when it was, it was probably,
16:56
you know, March or April this year. He goes by the way
17:00
the kick and catchy, and I was like, yeah, like and he's
17:03
like, no, he's actually a lot better of a pass catcher than you
17:07
probably think. I'm like a interesting and uh next to no Eastern offers as
17:11
a tight end. I remember going, all right, that's a little interesting
17:15
here, like because even though I think he could be maybe better on defense,
17:22
I do think that there is a lot of potential for him to be
17:26
a guy that moves on to play Sundays. I just do you look at
17:30
his size, his frame, the fact that he is on a so most
17:36
of the guys we've talked about on the top one hundred kind of progressed,
17:40
like, you know, non stop. Yeah. His progression though, is
17:44
at a steep angle. Yeah, you know what I mean. His his
17:48
rise over run is a lot steeper than most. You know, And I
17:53
don't know where this I don't know where the top is. Yeah, you
17:56
know what I mean, I don't know where it is. And when I
18:00
look at it, I watch him and you see his film from his sophomore
18:02
year and you're like, wow, this is really good sophomore film. Then
18:04
you watch his junior year and you're like, wow, even better. Now
18:07
you watch a senior year and you're like, good lord, Like this is
18:11
a grown man here now. So it's gonna be fun to watch. Listed
18:15
as a three star athlete by twenty four to seven Sports and the fortieth ranked
18:21
player out of the state of Washington. I mean that's truly saying something.
18:26
You know, anytime you're in the top fifty from the state of Washington,
18:29
I think it really really speaks volumes. I do. Yeah, that's kind
18:32
of always been My number is like fifty some years, you know, two
18:36
was it twenty twenty. I think it was the year that had Sam Hewart
18:40
and all those guys you could have gone to like eighty five that year.
18:42
It's just one of those loaded classes. Yeah, one of those classes where
18:45
you're just like, good lord man, Like there was guys that were going
18:48
to Eastern that I'm looking at it going, this guy's way better than that,
18:52
you know what I mean. And that's not taking a shot at Eastern.
18:55
That's just saying like, this guy was ridiculously good, but you hit
18:59
the top. Yeah, that's that's truly truly saying something because that means you
19:03
are a dude or as you said a couple of podcasts ago stud right,
19:10
like you are a that's a guy. You know, that's a guy that
19:14
when you're trying to game plan as a coach, you got to you gotta
19:18
know where he's at at all times on defense and on offense. Yeah.
19:22
And it's it's funny because like I was talking to some assistant coaches from another
19:26
one a school about him, and I was talking about him and some some
19:32
of his teammates and how they're all very similar. I said, yeah,
19:34
they're all kind of the same guy. And they all just shook their head
19:37
and look at me, and they go, no stites different. I go,
19:40
really, that much different, and he goes, yeah, he is,
19:42
he is, he's the guy. And I was like, yeah,
19:47
I guess I kind of see that. And they're like, they're like,
19:49
trust me, he's he's the guy. It's it's it's crazy, like what
19:53
what he does and that and though, and that's what's cool is that is
19:57
that I'm definitely will always listen to those coaches and and and agree with them
20:03
because because they know way more than I know about the game of football.
20:07
I mean, I've seen a lot of film. I watch it differently,
20:10
but I see little things sometimes, but I don't see all the things,
20:14
and and and if it's the combination of them seeing all the things plus me
20:18
seeing the little things plus you know, everything else. And I've talked about
20:22
it, it's a it's a common thread with the especially with these top five
20:26
guys, is as how great of a person they are too. I Mean,
20:30
when I went out to Lynden Christian's practice, it was it was a
20:34
Friday night, and it was the it was one of the last nights of
20:40
the Linden Fair that was that was going on, and I was, hey,
20:42
I was grabbing a few players to do a quick you know, goofy
20:47
interview thing with you know, askamil who on their team has the best hair,
20:51
who on your you know, all those kinds of things. And he
20:52
was one of the kids I grabbed and I said, hey, can you
20:56
stick around because I'm doing headshots at the same time, said hey, can
20:57
you stick around when I'm done with the headshots and do a quick interview.
21:02
And he was like, oh man, he was I'm supposed to be volunteering
21:04
at the fair. I'm supposed to be there like in twenty minutes. And
21:07
I was like, okay, I totally understand. You have a commitment and
21:11
that's and that's fine. And I had like six or seven other kids already
21:15
lined up anyways, so it was fine. And then when it was time
21:18
to do those interviews, he was there. Yeah, and it you know,
21:21
he he realized, Yeah, he made it a point to stick around,
21:25
and that was like, man, like he didn't have to do that,
21:27
he did it. I thanked him later, especially even I just reached
21:33
out to him on social media and say, hey, man, thank you
21:34
so much for sticking around. You know, it meant a lot to me.
21:38
And just those little things like that, And in no way did I
21:42
think he stuck around and hoping that he'd get ranked higher on the top one
21:45
hundred or anything like that. It was just doing what he felt was right
21:51
and it helped me out, you know. So, uh, that's a
21:55
that's a really cool deal. Been a lot of fun watching him play back
22:00
basketball. You know he did. I think he took some time off from
22:02
playing basketball. He is doing it this year. Leads the you know,
22:06
at the time of recording this, he's leading Walking County in rebounds by a
22:10
full rebound over the next guy. I mean, he he's you know,
22:14
I think he's averaging a double double this season, which is not easy to
22:17
do at the high school level when the games are only thirty two minutes long.
22:22
That's that really says a lot. But that shows his tenacity to grab
22:26
rebounds and get the get the tough buckets, and and it is fun watching
22:30
him out on the court because, like you said, when you're watching his
22:33
senior film, that's a grown man out there. And that's what it looks
22:37
like when he's playing basketball against some of these kids. He's just like whoa,
22:41
Like he's got like the he's got like the tape wrapped around his wrists,
22:45
like like a football player, you know, like yes, none of
22:48
the other basketball players have that. You know, like he's he's out there
22:52
just you know, every time he gets a rebound, like that ball is
22:56
that ball is still like above the rim, you know when he grabs it,
23:00
like he's going way up to get it. He is. He is
23:03
uh and it's fast motion. I mean he's quick and and uh so love
23:08
that athleticism, endurance, strength, everything. It's It's definitely gonna benefit Eastern
23:15
Washington in many ways for the next few years. Yeah, he is.
23:19
He's a tremendous talent and it's only uh, it's only got the ability to
23:23
go up from here. So it's gonna be fun to watch over there on
23:26
the on the old Inferno. See uh ye see what he is able to
23:30
accomplish. Tyler any last words, Cayden Stite or in the top one hundred.
23:36
Yeah, I just want to say thank you to everybody for another amazing
23:40
season and and uh it was. It was a really tough list to put
23:45
together this year. I some I want to say it gets easier and easier
23:48
every year because I kind of know what I'm doing and it feels like it
23:52
has. But then this year it just got a little tougher. And I
23:56
don't know if it's because you know, we didn't have a handful of you
23:59
know, packed twelve guys or if it or what it was, but it
24:03
was, it was. It was really fun. It was just a it
24:11
was an interesting year. Like I was asked by the radio guys KPUG when
24:15
I was on the zone. They said, was this the best year of
24:18
high school football? You see? I said, no, it was not
24:21
the best year. I hope the athletes keep keep getting better and better every
24:25
year, but it was. It was one of those years where every team
24:27
had at least three losses. Every team had at least three wins in Walkin
24:32
County. So it was there wasn't that big separation from anybody, you know,
24:40
it was. I wouldn't say that on any given Friday night a team
24:42
could win, but it had that feel where there was a lot of teams
24:47
kind of lumped together very evenly to where they could be beat each other.
24:52
There were the four teams that made it to the playoffs, and they were
24:55
kind of a little bit ahead of those other six. But at the same
24:57
time, great athletes throughout all the teams, and you know, just to
25:03
all the coaches and players and fans and parents and everybody and the officials everything.
25:08
Thank you to everybody for making me feel at home on the sidelines or
25:14
at the practice field or wherever I was, because every time I got to
25:18
drive out to a practice or a game, it meant something to me to
25:22
be able to go and do what I love to do and to see everybody
25:26
and just have fun with it. And and yeah, it's it's just a
25:30
lot of fun. And just thank you to everybody. Is that it?
25:34
Nothing else? I think I'm good. Well, Tyler, my whole sheet
25:40
