    It's okay guys. Kim says apparently no other team in our conference signed an elite pass rusher this cycle either. It's okay to dominate this dreck conference and then get embarrassed on the national stage every year.

    I like to denigrate (ISAFNRC) recroots who saw playing time as true frosh on the DL at Miami in 2017. I like to do that.

    He's been consistent with that take on DJ. Just like me & pumpy. Didn't want him.

    suppose im somewhat bummed about this.

    my fondest dj memory is probably that time during his recruiting period when he had that really weirdly photoshop of his head on a miami player's body on his twitter account.

    true, he did start three games, and then was benched when another true freshman took his spot.

    he may be good, he may suck, either way, you should kill yourself.
    I should have killed myself a long tim ago. Should and would are different words

    I didn’t like Warren either. I also said Ngata would be a better than DJ Johnson. DJ Johnson has a long way to go. The only reason he would be worth celebrating is because we have nobody else to play Buck.

    Love your face Roadie, but this one will age as well as @JHopkinsFS Twitter feed.

    Unpopular opinion alert ...

    UW’s ability to win a National Title will require us to have a Top 10 National Defense that is generally sound and having an elite level QB that plays at an elite level

    For those of you think that 1991 is the only way to do it, that was less because we had elite players (outside of Emtman) but more because we had a defensive strategy that was largely new to college and teams weren’t largely ready to combat. In the 1992 Rose Bowl the D dominated Michigan. In 1993, Michigan put up 38 and Tyrone Wheatley ran all over us as teams started finding ways to exploit the defense.

    So unless we have plans on revolutionizing defensive football our best shot is to have an elite QB. And guess what you have a great chance of finding on the West Coast compared to the SEC ... it’s the ONLY competitive advantage we almost always will have on the field going forward.

    So you're saying the game evolves over time? Shocking!!

    I am starting to become a loser that worships the QB position.

    Personally, I think pressure from the edge is overrrated. We don’t need it. UW will just work that much harder on defense and easily overcome it.

    So you're saying that Donald Jones and Andy Mason were not elite college pass rushers?

    The reason michigan had more offense in '93 is because we lost a lot of the "elite" players, including losing Donald Jones and replacing Emtman with Steve Hoffman.

    Emtman was beyond elite ...

    Jones/Mason were great college players that were largely unique for its time period ... that was a defense where each player magnified the other

    The reality is that we are unlikely to ever have a roster stacked with elite can’t miss guys ... the key is to get as many as we can and outplay the handful of potential talented opponents we may run up against

    I never thought he was very good. We’ll see.

    How'd that work out for USC and UCLA this season? It takes an entire team and you have to be elite on both lines of scrimmage to compete at that level. Having an elite QB doesn't mean shit if you don't have studs across the board in the trenches on both sides.
    Neither IMO played at an elite level ... at least on a consistent basis.

    Obviously you need good line play ... which traditionally we tend to hold our own there.

    But let’s be clear, we are never competing for the National Title with a team that can run it down someone’s throat. The only way we do so is having a QB with no fear that is willing and capable of making the throws and plays necessary.
