No it doesn't. Gaskin's a tough little fucker. A shoulder injury is not going to limit the yards he gets.greenblood said:
Another screen shot. I'm getting some good material today.StrongArmCobra said:
A shoulder injury really doesn't affect what your legs do as a RUNNING back. He wasn't run into the ground. UW rotated in the other backs a good amount. Cool story bro but Deanthony Thomas is irrelevant to Salvon Ahmed.greenblood said:
Gaskin had 4.9 yards per carry with one shoulder. Let's also not forget the Peterson basically ran him into the ground. Gaskin had 30 more carries this year with 1-2 fewer games than any season before. I'm also not impressed with 5.8 yards per carry with Ahmed's limited touches. People in Eugene were stoked about DeAnthony Thomas and his nearly 8.0 yards per carry heading into his Jr year. When he became the main point of the running game he dropped to just over 6 yards per carry. We'll see if Ahmed can keep his average going on a full workload.StrongArmCobra said:
Ahmed has good vision and there are moments when he shows flashes of amazing vision and elusiveness. He just needs to make better decisions and be more decisive and stop trying to bounce everything to the outside just because he's fast. It's a learning process.greenblood said:

He didn't have Ridley to throw to his Freshman season. Georgia's receivers were average. His favorite target was his best friend and coke snorting buddy Isaac Ngata. The receivers were a bunch of Jaydon Mickens midget JAGS. Georgia has greatly improved their WR talent since then.greenblood said:
That's true...but he also doesn't have Gaskin behind him, and Ridley to throw to. I'm not saying he sucks by any means. However, I really need to see how this guy plays on the field at UW before I make an assessment. I also don't pay much attention to coach and player speak. They'll say any non locker room cancer player is talented.CuntWaffle said:
This throw makes me as hard as a diamond (hi chatch!) but it is only one throw. His overall stats at Georgia were meh. Much better competition than the pac 12 makes me hopeful that he will be a stud but I’m in LIPO.Sources said:
I'll let Georgia know this wasn't "game action".greenblood said:
I agree with you about Browning. But the only other player to throw a meaningful pass at UW was terrible. You can’t really say anything until we actually see them in game action.GreenRiverGatorz said:
As much as we hate Browning, I still think we underestimate just how much he held back the offense. I see people consistently criticize our WRs, and it's somewhat fair given their lack of production and some notable drops towards the end of the year. But the way I see it, we really don't know what we have in that group because Jake could only throw to about 40% of their route trees. And the throws that were there and within his range he often didn't attempt because his vision was so fucking poor.UW_Doog_Bot said:
He doesn't even need to be good for an improvement. Just not so bad he holds the team back like Browning did. Not a tough bar to clear.greenblood said:I wait for Eason to attempt a pass in a Husky uniform before I comment...thanks
Also, if he is that bad we do actually have depth and competition to supplant the starter now.
I’m personally rooting for Yankoff. If anything, he’s going to be good fodder for the board.

Main point though is he will be better than Browning, I don’t think anyone could deny that.
I felt the same way about Mariota when he won the starting job. Then in the first half of game one, he showed how special he was. Eason could very well be special, but I want to see it first.
What difference does not having Gaskin make? UW has better talent at RB to replace him with and a very good O-line returning. Running the ball won't be a problem.
You're just reaching for straws bro. Just keep it real and say "I would rather hold out hope for the 0.01% chance Eason sucks instead of just accepting now the high likelihood he tears Oregon defense a new one with his amazing arm."
You have got to be kidding me...
Ahmed for sure has tremendous speed and good size. Unfortunately, his vision is terrible. When he hits the hole, he's great, but most often he misses it. You can't coach speed and athleticism, which Ahmed has over Gaskin. However, Gaskin's vision is what made him elite, and that you really can't teach. Gaskin turned lost yards and no gains into 5-6 yard plays or home runs, repeatedly. You are going to regret that comment because Gaskin isn't that far off from Napoleon Kaufman and Corey Dillon. To say Gaskin leaving isn't going to hurt is an insult to one of the best backs in UW history, and also an insult to your remaining brain cells.
Kamari Pleasant ran for 5.1 yards per carry, Sean McGrew ran for 4.5 yards per carry, and Salvon Ahmed ran for 5.8 yards per carry. Gaskin ran for 4.9 yards per carry. It's not a big loss because the guys coming up behind him are good too.
So apparently, if a running back takes a hit on an injured shoulder, it shouldn't impact his rushing ability...that's great intel SAC. -

Yeah except Tony Brooks-James sucks and is nowhere near as talented as Royce Freeman. It's the opposite in UW's case. We lose an all-time great back but the guy behind him is more talented and will probably be running behind a better O-line as a starter.RatherBeBrewing said:We're not going to miss Royce Freeman in 2018, we have Tony Brooks-James. And he averaged 9.0 YPC as a freshman an 7.6 YPC as a sophomore. Royce Freeman only averaged like 5.4 YPC that season like some pathetic scrub, so TBJ will be way better.
It will be just like the time Kiko Alonso was leaving and everyone was panicking and then we got Rodney Hardrick. -

Yeah that's what I thought bitch. Turn to a gif because you ain't got shit to say. You're argument is retarded. You're throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks.

I see people consistently criticize our WRs, and it's somewhat fair given their lack of production and some notable drops towards the end of the year. But the way I see it, we really don't know what we have in that group because Jake could only throw to about 40% of their route trees. And the throws that were there and within his range he often didn't attempt because his vision was so fucking poor.UW_Doog_Bot said:
He doesn't even need to be good for an improvement. Just not so bad he holds the team back like Browning did. Not a tough bar to clear.greenblood said:I wait for Eason to attempt a pass in a Husky uniform before I comment...thanks
Also, if he is that bad we do actually have depth and competition to supplant the starter now.
I’m personally rooting for Yankoff. If anything, he’s going to be good fodder for the board.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTdOojdEkmw
Main point though is he will be better than Browning, I don’t think anyone could deny that.
I felt the same way about Mariota when he won the starting job. Then in the first half of game one, he showed how special he was. Eason could very well be special, but I want to see it first.
What difference does not having Gaskin make? UW has better talent at RB to replace him with and a very good O-line returning. Running the ball won't be a problem.
You're just reaching for straws bro. Just keep it real and say "I would rather hold out hope for the 0.01% chance Eason sucks instead of just accepting now the high likelihood he tears Oregon defense a new one with his amazing arm."
You have got to be kidding me...
Ahmed for sure has tremendous speed and good size. Unfortunately, his vision is terrible. When he hits the hole, he's great, but most often he misses it. You can't coach speed and athleticism, which Ahmed has over Gaskin. However, Gaskin's vision is what made him elite, and that you really can't teach. Gaskin turned lost yards and no gains into 5-6 yard plays or home runs, repeatedly. You are going to regret that comment because Gaskin isn't that far off from Napoleon Kaufman and Corey Dillon. To say Gaskin leaving isn't going to hurt is an insult to one of the best backs in UW history, and also an insult to your remaining brain cells.
Kamari Pleasant ran for 5.1 yards per carry, Sean McGrew ran for 4.5 yards per carry, and Salvon Ahmed ran for 5.8 yards per carry. Gaskin ran for 4.9 yards per carry. It's not a big loss because the guys coming up behind him are good too.
So apparently, if a running back takes a hit on an injured shoulder, it shouldn't impact his rushing ability...that's great intel SAC.
