    I cant handle the ups and downs of the Eason situation

    I don’t think the board, and quite honestly Husky fans, have ever been more united in one thing.

    I also just want to say this. EVERYONE KNOWS EASON WILL MAKE MISTAKES! So will Haener! SO DID OUR FOURTH YEAR STARTER QB LAST YEAR.

    But modern football needs to risk mistakes, and you have to take the upside, the problem is we didn’t have upside the last many years at QB.

    It’s gonna look completely different if Eason starts, more like the Tui years when I wanted to throw things at him and then the next play I wanted to fan him with palms (lots of ppl forget how maddening he was at times). We also have an elite defense that can protect against mistakes.

    You have to let the talent go and see what happens. We have 12 games, THAT IS IT.
    Quite honestly, I don’t disagree.

    My fear is Pete thinks Haener will make less mistakes, this giving the team a better chance to win 9-10 games. Eason feels like a guy who could maybe get you two wins on his arm talent...but could also lose you three because he’s being a fuck.

    Haener already cost us a game
    Yeah, one guy played pretty well under pressure as true frosh in a league I hear is fairly decent, while the other is 1/1 choking under pressure. Feels like a WeTalkingBoutPractice?.gif situation, but I'll LIPO for the moment.

    From LPT. But still boner inducing:

    OLB Joe Tryon - For the past couple of years, he's seemed content to let the play come to him, picking and choosing his spots to get after the quarterback. Yeah, it's only day one, but man, he looks poised to really break out this season. Instead of waiting for the play to come to him, Tryon forced the action, beating Trey Adams on one play with the first team and would have broken Jacob Eason in two if this had been a game. You know that hit on a quarterback when they get him in the middle of his back and he just whiplashes? That is what Eason would have looked like on that play.

    DB Kyler Gordon - The battle isn't over, but Gordon appears to have taken the lead in his battle with Dominique Hampton as the left corner opposite Keith Taylor. Gordon is so quick and explosive, he makes spectacular plays look routine. There will be ups and downs this month, but he sure looks the part of the next great Husky corner

    OLB Ariel Ngata - He is still a bit on the small side, weighing in at just 215 pounds, but man he gets after it. He looked great pursuing the ball all over the field and he also got some pressure on the quarterback on a couple of different occasions



    There were some other comments on other guys but these ones stood out.

    That should put to bed the talk on Ngata playing ILB.
