Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Hugh's 1 gripe with the game.
"Keith was a little hesitant throwing over the middle"
Brought up John Ross's pass to the end zone. Of course if Jack would have thrown that ball it would have been because JR gave up on the play and didn't hustle.

This is the same guy who still isn't quite sold on Wilson yet will give Jake a passing grade after going 4-20 against Nebraska.
If you dare question Hugh's opinion you are met with "he's forgotten more about the game than you will ever know".
Yet Rick Neuheisel and any other coach without an agenda would take Price over Locker, would take Wilson over Flynn.
And that team could not go undefeated because the offense was so mediocre. Great quarterbacking.
And T Pryor > M Flynn.

Millen had 11 career passing touchdowns to 23 interceptions and was benched during his senior year. He should seriously shut the fuck up.
Then again if you are listening to KJR or reading Doogman's opinions you should probably die in a fire by now.
I hate it when former players say somebody who hasn't played the game at a high level don't know what they are talking about. Look no further than Matt Millen. The guy was a good LB, but was the possibly the worst GM of all time. Look at Michael Jordan in basketball. He has no fucking clue on how to put together a good team. He can't get a draft pick right. Kwame Brown, Adam Morrison, etc. He has missed on basically every draft pick. There is a reason not very many great players have gone on to be great coaches and GM's.
Lots of professional teams are now using stats and analystics guys to operate front offices because lots of them know how to put together a good team verses a guy who ignores that stuff, but was a former star. Billy Beane doesn't even watch the A's games because he doesn't want to have biases when constructing a team. He doesn't want to play favorites and keep guys who hurt the team in every way, but are coach's favorites because they hustle out every ground ball. For every double play they hustle out to win a game, they lose 3 more by hitting .200.
Smith starts over Rodgers.
Fields (RIP) and Small (RIP) are a push.
That's about it.
Hall was a first rounder but both Pearson and Jackson were better, and had better pro careers.
