From Vorel:Is it Taimani’s time?
Sam Taimani — a 6-2, 322-pound redshirt freshman defensive tackle — worked almost exclusively with the starters on Wednesday, beside junior Levi Onwuzurike. Taimani had received only sparing starting reps in UW’s first four practices, typically slotting behind fellow redshirt freshman Tuli Letuligasenoa.
The Salt Lake City, Utah, native also made his presence felt. In a 7-on-7 running drill, Taimani burst up the middle and swallowed up running back Sean McGrew for a significant loss, causing the defense to erupt in applause. Letuligasenoa also made a similar stop a few plays later. -

All we need is one of them to step up. If they both do it then we've got house money.UWhuskytskeet said:From Vorel:

I do hope #MiChico is back

Isaiah Gilchrist is just getting abused. Every practice report has "so and so ran right past Isaiah Gilchrist for a long completion." The QB's seem to be picking on him. He's not an option for playing time. Just a warm body out there.

Caple's Practice Notes:
When Bryant moves to safety and Molden slides over to nickel, redshirt freshman Kyler Gordon typically takes most of the reps at cornerback (opposite Keith Taylor) with the No. 1 defense; redshirt freshman Dominique Hampton has practiced there some, too. Lake said Gordon and Taylor are currently tied in the standings for the coveted “Best Hands in the Room” award, given each spring and fall to the defensive back who finishes camp with the most interceptions. They each have two.
Gordon, the former Everett (Wash.) Archbishop Murphy standout, turned heads at last month’s Husky Combine, particularly with his 42.5-inch vertical jump. Bryant said that leap was no surprise: “We go play pickup basketball, and he’s dunking.”
Gordon (6 feet 0, 195 pounds) might be the best pure athlete on the team, and his coverage skills are apparent, too. So far this spring, he has intercepted two passes and broken up several others, and seems to be right on top of receivers even when they catch the ball.
“Kyler’s athletic, can jump, can move side to side,” Lake said. “It’s really more about him just continuing to grow, continuing to attack the football, and getting his man skills at a higher level, which he’s working on.”
Gordon, Bryant said, is “somebody who will make explosive plays by intercepting the ball and then being able to take it to the house. Just always being in that right position, no matter what happens pre-snap or post-snap. I feel like he’s always going to be right near the ball, right where he needs to be.”
Hampton and fifth-year senior walk-on Dustin Bush took most of the second-team reps at cornerback Wednesday, with Gilchrist playing some at nickel with that group, and sophomore Alex Cook and true freshman Cameron Williams at safety. Redshirt freshman Julius Irvin remains limited by injury, but he should be a factor in the safety competition once healthy. (So, too, should incoming freshman Asa Turner, who won’t enroll until the summer but attended Wednesday’s practice and followed the defensive backs from drill to drill as an observer.) Lake made sure to mention other incoming freshmen defensive backs Kamren Fabiculanan and Trent McDuffie as possible competitors for playing time, too.
Already, Bryant said, “I actually think this is one of the most competitive groups I’ve been a part of, just in terms of how we push each other — in the weight room, out on the field, who can get the most interceptions, who has the best individual drills.”
Said Lake: “It’s going to be an awesome, competitive camp with a lot of talented players, and we’re going to see what happens when the dust settles at the end of August.”
Other notes:
- Ulofoshio, Clark, Levi, and Tryon all had sacks. Ngata twice was within "sack" distance from Eason as he threw it but there was no whistle to indicate sack.
- Haener went 3 of 3 with the 1's against the 1's, and Yankoff got the reps with the 2's but only went 1 of 5.
- Henry went 2 for 2 from his max distance of 35 yards.
- Eason floated between the 2's and the 1's and got sacked a bunch, had short dump offs, and hit Bryant on an out route with a laser throw.
- Sirmon had a great drive hitting Ozzy twice, Lowe once, and Chico once.
- OL's were the same as all the other practices, with Norgaard subbing for Harris to get more experience at Center.
- Potato has been spending the last two practices mainly with the OLB group rather than DL group. -

Per Ektard:
- The best players of the day were the 3 RS Frosh DL. Mosiah looked really good today and Monday against the run, Taki got in the backfield on multiple plays, and Tuli has been eating up blockers for LB's to make tackles.
- The DB lineup wasn't just a few series of Bryant at safety like on Monday, it was the entire practice with Bryant/McKinney at safety, Molden at nickel, and Taylor/Gordon at corner.
- Dom has continued to flash at corner, but Gordon has been consistently around the ball and on the WR's hip on every throw.
- Wellington has looked consistent in every practice, and Manu is hasn't been talked about at all except he's with the 1's. -
But who will replace Greg Gaines?

Hopefully he can be our special teams gunner Star with some memorable tackles and forced fumbles while getting a degree. -
God, can Haener just transfer already?! I can't shake this feeling I have that Pete's gonna give him the job.
For fuck's sake, can Bush not develop any of these four- and five-star studs? Why is Eason throwing interceptions? Why can't Sirmon or Yankoff beat out this diminutive try-hard?
I want the best QB on the field, but last time I said that, Evan Weaver, who should have been a Dawg instead of Amandre Williams, made me get in a fight with my wife that lasted for two days.
Fuck. C'mon, Eason! It's been five practices already. Dennis said you're supposed to win the Heisman and you can't even beat out Jake "the coaches adore me" Haener. -

He is beating out Haener.

Can we stop pretending Haener is a starting level division 1 QB? Thanks!

If Haener is the QB I am going to be fucking livid

he caught it with his body. we should cut himGrundleStiltzkin said: -
Lol at you assholes freaking out over day 5 of fucking spring camp. No wonder Pete likes fucking with us, everyone here is so easily triggered. I'll spoil the script for you - Eason wins the job, it's not even close, and every single one of you chuckle fucks forgets who was running with the first team offense in the fucking spring. Save your pant-shitting for Eason's inevitable letdown during actual game play in the fall.

We don't need to save anything. It's only lightly spilling over at this point, and we're all gonna full on projectile shit all over this bored when Eason throws his first pick, or when he doesn't because he keeps checking down, or literally anything happens beside him having a 500yd 4TD 0INT game.GreenRiverGatorz said:Lol at you assholes freaking out over day 5 of fucking spring camp.

If you don't know that coaches fuck up the QB choice more than any other position you have forgotten an Iron Law
But of course we are unreasonable and panicking. Its what we do -

Screenshotting this for when Hanky Panky is named the starter. You think itll be bad on the board if Eason throws a pick?
Just wait until Haener throws a pick six causing us to lose to fucking Cal. Oh wait.
The ultimate culprit is actually Pete. Fix the fucking QB position.
