    I'd take subpar WR and passing QB recruiting for a team that lines up and runs the fucking ball down your goddamned throat night in night out. The last time I really enjoyed UW offense was going option with Tui in 2000.

    I miss Warshington, damnit.

    That team ran the option like 10-20% of plays. It's not like we went full on option.
    Which is why PJ & Locker would have been awesome.

    Yeah how would that have worked without one of best QBs in league history? Probably 6-6 or 7-5.

    Subpar QB play in the pac12 isn't a recipe for sustained success. It barely passes in the ACC most years for GT.

    Power run game is one thing (like Stanford) - I'm all for that, wishbone is another. That wouldn't consistently work in the Pac12 in my opinion.

    The thought of Jack Lockner making multiple split second decisions in a true triple option offense in CFB gives me nightmares.
    Because those are so fast is why I think Jake would have been just fine in that offense. Coaching and training for under-center, triple option is repetition to the point that it's instinctual. There's no time to think.

    I want to give you a half vote up and down for that comment. I get your point, but I still disagree.... DJ needs to get on that.

    I'm guessing Eason will enroll in January.

    Seriously, he's not interested in UW and hasn't been for a long time now. We have no shot.

    Back on point,


    Who wants a #6 QB in the country?

    These rankings reflect how much each guy fluffs Dilfer, rather than how good they are at football.

    Yeah, it's complete BS... Eason is really good, I don't need Trent Dilfer's Fluffer Rankings to tell me that.

    This. It hasn't consistently worked for Johnson at GT. Some option is fine, but running it exclusively really handcuffs an offense. There is a reason hardly anyone runs it.
    Not only does it handcuff the offense it also handcuffs your defense. They get no good looks during practices. The scout team is all built for option football, it's the reason their defense can be so awful at times.

    I love watching a highly executed option, when they get the lead it can work wonders. It can also be awesome to watch when the opposing team wants nothing to do with being cut block all day. But there is a reason so few teams run that offense anymore.

    Call me when these kids actually have to throw 6'6" DL running down their throat. Passing camps are as valuable as Seven's Alcoholics anonymous sponsorship pin.

    The option definitely has its place ... I definitely think it is more effective from under center in a triple option form than in the backfield. I also think running from under center is more effective than from the shotgun. If for nothing less, the moving downhill results in negative plays being far less damaging than from the shotgun. But that's my opinion.

    The Tui led offense had a perfect mix of option. If you run it just enough to make people have to worry about it and practice against it, it really helps in opening up the rest of your offense. If teams start keying on other parts of your offense, the option can then kill teams getting outside (see Rich Alexis' run against Miami).

    Pepsi's point about Georgia Tech and their pass defense is very important. If Johnson could ever get a QB that could definitely throw the ball when needed, his offense would be very difficult to stop.

    Eason may be the best QB to come out of this state since Jake Heaps.
