    Herbert sucks like Sam Darnold sucked his last season at SC which means he doesn't actually suck. He's still a clear NFL talent but he has regressed and lost confidence because the OC he's working with is shit, the play calls are shit, and he has only one guy to throw to. He'll be a better pro than college player because he'll get better coaching and have better talent to throw to. His talent is wasted at Oregon.

    Just like Gaskin’s talent being wasted at UW?
    WTF how? What other program would he have been better off at? He's UW's all-time career leading rusher. He's a hometown kid who's a 4-year starter for his hometown team. His talent has flourished and has been showcased as much as possible. For a 3-star recruit who doesn't have prototypical NFL size, he has overachieved at UW.
    The similarities are mind boggling.

    Herbert three star recruit
    Herbert home grown kid
    Herbert might be Oregon’s all time leading passer after next year
    Herbert like every other college football player since 2000, has been showcased
    Herbert possible top 5 NFL pick.
    Herbert hasn’t won a major bowl game. Has Gaskins?
    Herbert not heavily recruited

    Except Gaskins has been consistently good since day one.

    Herbert is still working on his reads.

    NOGAF about top 5 pick projections.
    I’m not saying Herbert is great. I was replying to @Strongarmcobra’s retarded take the Herbert’s talent is being wasted at Oregon.

    Herbert's "talent" is being wasted at Oregon.

    With those measurables, he should be lighting up the stat sheet. He doesn't. He's an a'ight Pac-12 QB. Just a'ight.

    He's had shit coaching if he's still waiting to get his reads down the end of year 3.

    Lockner also had great “measurables”.

    Herbert locks on too early where he’s throwing the football.

    Herbert has zero touch on his passes

    Herbert does not make smart decisions, and should have more INT’s than he does now.

    My point being...Gaskins could be great almost anywhere. Also, he can’t win the big games at UW, because he’s surrounded by a noodle arm quarterback, a below average offensive line, and a head coach who lost the edge that originally made him great.

    If you’re saying Herbert’s talent is being wasted at UO, you can make the same argument for Gaskins. Problem being, some of you need to take the purple glasses off and actually realize the harsh reality of the situation.

    Probably should wait to see if Gaskin is a one time or two time league champ before comparing him to a second division qb

    How impressive is that actually? Three loss conference champs!!!...sweet

    Your point was that comparing Gaskin to Hubert is stupid?

    It's not close at all.

    Gaskin isn't UW's all time leading passer...in fact I don't think has ever thrown a pass.

    He won't be drafted top 5.

    Gaskin is a Pa 12 Champion and won numerous post season honors.
