    I talked to someone at same clinic. He said similar stuff about the QBs, Jeff's probably the starter just because. Didn't mention the accuracy part but similar tone: We know Lindy doesn't have it but he's best we got right now.

    RBs: Not much to see during my guy's time there. One remark, "Dotson's tiny but really, really fast."

    OL: Wasn't sure what to make of those guys. Said Brostek looked good, bigger. Seemed to be an understanding the group during spring probably wouldn't be the starting group at BSU.

    Most impressed with the DL, said what some of us here had been speculating that the overall talent isn't going to fall off much from 2014. Vita Virga is really big and moves well. Disly looks good.

    As for the clinic, he said it was the best in a decade, and several times more coaches in 2015 than 2014. He said Petersen had a great presentation on overall type stuff and then tackling in specific. The other standout presenter was Jake Browning's HS coach.

    Thanks for the post but voted down because it depresses me.

    I knew we were fucked at QB the minute we lost Cyler to the NFL.

    It is concerning to hear so many second and third hand rumors from high school coaches who don't think Peterman is getting it done at this level.

    What I'm curious about is how much the QBs are struggling compared to last year, specifically Lindquist 2014 and 2015. Is there measurable progress between last spring and now? Is this progress sufficient or acceptable given his ceiling and given the difference in instruction between the 'basics' of year 1 and whatever they're doing now? And how do KCJS and Browning compare to Williams?

    I guess these coaches might be able to provide some insight on the difference between Day 1 and Day 15 if they're back for the Spring Preview.

    I was at the clinic and practice and disagree with what your friends had to say about the QBs. I will get a post up about what I saw and my thoughts soon.

    What is his ceiling?

    How did you determine that?

    It's a shame that Petersen has ruined the great quarterback legacy that Sark built here

    It's a shame this HS coach hasn't won a BCS bowl with all his expert knowledge

    The statistical reality is that every one of those coaches would love the chance to coach just one player with the athletic gifts as any UW player they saw at practice.
