Mathis will be a late to mid round pick depending on his combine imo.. Gardenhire will play in the league he has size and length *faggy wink*.. Bierra fits today's modern NFL and his size is similar to Bobby Wagner both shorter and athletic..
I don't really disagree with anything you said here, but holy shit, 5 straight poasts?
Shouldn't you be in third period right now?
Next time I have a sit down with PurpleJ to discuss bandwidth conservation, I'll sit down too with this lad to explain consolidating multiple thoughts into one coherent post.
Probable: Gaskin, Browning, Pettis, Mathis... Browning seems small, but he's listed on NFL lists as one of the top QB's for his year.
Eldrenkamp will get a shot. I have no clue about Coleman Shelton, but he's a four year starter who has played multiple positions. Bierria might be too small, but at minimum he's a very good college LB. Gardenhire started over King at times last year. I actually think Coleman will be in a camp. The team is loaded.
Totally agree. This is a very talented team with a number of future NFL players on it, and they play like Huskies, bad motherfuckers and all. Best part is it's also a very young team. In that regard it is like 1990 all over again. But, the season is only half over, let's see how they respond to having a target on their backs.
The bolded is the best part. Though I certainly hope they don't have a UCLA game in them. I could probably deal with a loss without completely losing my shit, but not if it came against a real dreck team, like that fucking UCLA squad.
I loved the 91 squad and the 90 and 92 teams were really good too, but the thing that is so different now versus 25 years ago is the offenses in the college game. Lambright's defensive scheme was a perfect way to attack traditional college offenses. It also put some players who were odd fits for traditional positions into roles where they could excel. And it was new in 90 and 91 and other teams hadn't figured out how to deal with it, sort of like true spread offenses were 10 or so years ago.
Once the talent dropped off even a little and other teams figured out that they couldn't line up in an I-formation and beat the 46, it started getting gashed.
In 2011, how many points did Chip Kelly's "high octane" up tempo spread offense score against Auburn, which had one of the "worst" defenses in the SEC that year? 19 points you say? And I can say with 100% confidence that the 1991 Huskies Defense was head and shoulders better than Auburn's in 2011.
James'/Lambright's scheme took advantage of the athletes they had at their disposal. No doubt they would have adjusted to offensive schemes, and no doubt they would have been very successful. And this is kind of the point as to why it's way too early for any comparison of the 2016 Huskies to the 1991 Huskies.
Let these guys grow into their own animal. This is a very good and very young football team, it may grow into a great one, but for now they still have a lot to prove before being compared to one of the all time great college football teams. In my lifetime only one other program in the PAC has been able to do that, and they're riddled with 5 star athletes year in and year out. It took legendary coaches McKay and Carroll to piece it all together, just as it took legendary hall of fame Coach Don James to do so at Washington. If Peterman does the same, well then we'll have become one lucky and spoiled fanbase for the second time in 40 years, and take heed, do not take it for granted, enjoy it to it's fullest while it lasts because you never know what might happen to derail it.

This is all true, and well stated.
And I certainly wasn't denigrating the '91 defense in any way. I was just pointing out that the combination of players and the scheme Lambright implemented late in '89 really captured lightning in a bottle.
I'm not crowning this year's team as anything, other than clearly improved over last year's (and many years before that). And yeah, the schedule has been weak over the 9 game winning streak. Quite weak. But there also haven't been too many games that have been close to competitive.

I was thinking 1990 also. Young team developing talent. Destroyed some teams. Struggled against a few others that we shouldn't have.
1991, we were the top dawg. We were the Alabama. Yeah Miami was there, they were the fast and loose team. We were the smash mouth, Fuck you team. Remember hearing the stories if how they'd tell the defense the play at the line and they still couldn't stop us.
For us to be the 1991 team, we have to be the Alabama, the team everyone is looking up at. That's some serious doog shit to say right now.

Taylor Rapp is going to be an AA as a senior if he doesn't get hurt.
That's why SC and ASU are the most dangerous teams left. They have talent. They just suck. But any given Saturday

One thing is for sure, it will be interesting...
