    If I'm Huard I would just stick it out at UW. It's over. You're a 5* bust. It's not entirely his fault, you have neckbeard TBS website runners evaluating you at 7 on 7 camps and it in no way simulates having power 5 edge rushers coming at you.

    You can cush your way through life at UW by just being 3rd string QB and doing something there afterwards. This isn't a Haener situation.

    He's only in his second year. He clearly didn't figure it out here, but by no means is he yet a bust.
    He will be.
    Yeah, he just didn’t ever look physically comfortable on a P5 field. That was the biggest red flag.

    Some kids rise to it but he looked overwhelmed and it was clear that the arm talent factor was not transferring from HS.

    I trust DeBoer and Grubb. Huard got ZERO time against Colorado. Very telling IMHO. Sunday got a couple snaps in that game. Sam just wasn't the guy. Another example of a 7v7 qb not translating to the actual game.

    He threw plenty of dimes in high school football as well, not just 7 on 7. Great accurate deep and intermediate balls but it was never with major arm strength. I thought he would have more command of the offense and it would translate. Sounds like he never got his reads down and with the lack of a big arm that was a bad combo. Good luck to him but I’m not worried. If he was confident he would have won the job when penix left I think he’d stay.

    Only issue is the QB room numbers, but two different staffs essentially had the same feeling on his talent level/readiness to play.

    Janitor is on it: ordering more bubble wrap for Penix.

    For better and for worse, Hardcore Husky can be a rough crowd

    If college football all of a sudden stops being a contact sport, everyone wears shorts and a t shirt, and the WB throws to receivers without a defense playing then we will REALLY miss Huard.

    In DeBoner we trust. Most schools are gonna have QB depth issues to a certain degree in the portal era (ILTCIT), so best to have a head coach with a track record of developing top passers.

    In the meantime, a lotta echo in that QB room, and a lotta praying that our? Penix doesn’t break. (Which would have been the case either way, so it’s interesting.)
