Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
How embarrassed is lindquist?
The guy is an upperclassman, a 4-star recruit and yet sucks so bad that he gets beat out by glass-jaw-browning and magma carta? Those guys can't even complete a 5-yard out.
If lindy had any pride he'd commit hara kiri on the 50-yard line.

What more do you want?
He will do great in finance as he seems to be grooming into an effective and successful snake oils salesman.
He's set for life no matter what, he's a Mercer Island kid who is developing a network of business goons. He could give a shit if he ever plays again.
Living the dream.
The reality, its not his fault.
He is a victim of a stupid fucking coach who could insert him as the starter and force defenses to respect the long threat as well as the option.
If the kid was at Oregon he'd probably be a Heisman contender.
I suspect he really wanted to compete -- but fell victim to shitty QB coaching over the years. I mean, his coaches were Sark, then Smith. How many QBs are going to thrive in that environment?
He might have stopped caring as a result of this, and is now resigned to just finishing up and going into finance or getting an MBA, but in the beginning, I think this kid wanted to compete.
Hell, if we had an OC and QB coach that knew how to use the players we have, Lindy might have become a better QB.
I bet he'd be better than he is now if he had gone to Stanford.
[edit]
Yeah, he was offered by Furd in 2012

Hindsight is 20/20.
I went back and looked at the Elite 11 finishers from that year and Jameis Winston has been the only real successful one out of the bunch.
Incidentally, Cyler Miles was part of that Elite 11 camp, but he didn't make it as a finalist. He just missed it by a bit.
Shows you how FS that whole thing is. After all, they have Trent Dilfer on there crying about how special some of these kids are.
