    Imagine thinking a guy who went 11-21 in conference while at Cal and went 6-6 with a pretty talented UW team the year before (with losses at home to 6-6 Nevada and at historically bad Arizona) needed the benefit of the doubt of a second year.

    Seriously? Might as well let Hugh Millen and Cary Conklin in

    I think this might be a bit of a sympathy thing given the health issues he's had

    The records that Penix broke by and large belonged to Cody

    But why did Cody have those records? Because our 2.2 YPC running game was so bad that we had no choice but to throw.

    And I'm not hating on him. I just question HOF status. Cody's mom once wrote me a thank you email when I defended him on Dawgman. That was before Kim Grinolds replaced my name on nine years worth of articles.
    He had the records because he set them
    Which occurs when you throw the ball 50 times a game, you're going to rack up yards regardless of whether you're good or not.

    How is that different from any qb like say Penix

    Cody was good.

    I never said Cody wasn't good. I liked Cody, he was a good QB. What I question is HOF credentials. Who did he beat? He beat Michigan in his first start. He knocked off Oregon twice and a highly ranked WSU. He lost to Purdue in the Sun Bowl and lost to Texas in the Holiday Bowl. Got destroyed in Miami. Lost to Nevada at home. He beat a 6-6 USC team in 2001. That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

    Oregon's Danny O'Neil threw for a ton of yards but often choked inside the 20. All those yards didn't mean he was great. (As an example)

    The 2002 running game (and probably the 2003, it's more of a blur, and back then, I worked a lot of Saturdays), was god awful. Slick Rick's go to were quick slants.

    I remember reading an article how Cody Pickett out threw Jake Plummer at Jake Plummer's own camp. That cemented him as legendary status in my mind.
