Co-sign. Our? OLB tend to be 240-270. If he can’t add on the weight but is still flying around then he could fit in at ILB and just clean up. Either that or he will stay a situational pass rusher only.dnc said:

That should put to bed the talk on Ngata playing ILB.bananasnblondes said: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. -

I'm not gonna search through the thread to see if this has been posted but this is frustrating as hell. Practice reps are important and giving first team snaps to Haener and fucking John Clarke is just a straight waste. -
I’m just going to come to terms already that Heaner is starting that way my excitement for the season doesn’t deflate on opening kick off when I’ve hoped for Eason to for 2 years now

Based on the information has reported. He told them to attack the ball or get the fuck of the field. So hopefully he has good yearwhatshouldicareabout said:
How Ty Jones performs this year will be a great indicator of how well Adams develops his receivers.GrundleStiltzkin said: -

The good thing about Haener is he’s not a game managing pussy. He actually tries to take chances. That leads to picks and a lack of trust from the coaches.FirePete said:

I don’t think the board, and quite honestly Husky fans, have ever been more united in one thing.PostGameOrangeSlices said:I cant handle the ups and downs of the Eason situation
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.
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.
If he was a game managing pussy, he might win the job because Pete loves those guys. -
Do we really need this starting qb mystery to get a leg up on Eastern?

This is 100% about Pete setting the culture. He puts the cult in culture on some issues, this is one of them. He wants Eason to fight for his life every day, for better or for worse.
I still think Eason starts. -
Kyler Manu still getting reps with the ones. No coach in the entire fucking country does this shit. I love Chris Petersen but I despise him at the same time.

With recruiting failures and attrition, Manu reps has some slim grounding in depth chart realities.StrongArmCobra said:Kyler Manu still getting reps with the ones. No coach in the entire fucking country does this shit. I love Chris Petersen but I despise him at the same time.
FM for Manu equivocation.
