If you want to build a real program, yes, that's what you do. Petersen and Chip Kelly and David Shaw are not out searching for JUCO kids or graduate transfers every off season. You build a great program internally with your own recruits. Not with bandaids that fill a hole for one year but leave another gaping hole when they leave. And don't act like this dude was banging down Oregon's door. They went after him and offered him the easiest path to playing time for his final season with a talented QB to throw him the ball.creepycoug said:
Let me get this straight. You play a season with one receiver who is worth a shit, and he leaves. A guy who has some upside wants to transfer from Penn State, but you tell him to fuck off because you need those reps this season for the younger guys to develop.StrongArmCobra said:
Go ahead and suck even worse in 2020. I don't care. Oregon always wants to put bandaids on holes on the roster instead of developing their own talent internally and that's why they suck and aren't going anywhere.creepycoug said:
You play for now. Next season is next seaon. If the other receivers warrant throws, then they'll get them. That's the nice thing about the position: it's all production. QBs are stingy people by nature. They want to complete passes and will throw to anyone who catches them.StrongArmCobra said:
Except he's a one year rental who'll take game reps away from your younger receivers and slow down their growth and development. Helps Oregon for 2019, hurts them for 2020, especially if he becomes Herbert's favorite target.creepycoug said:
There have been a lot of successful big receivers who are north of 4.4. The knock on him was his inconsistency in 2018. People loved him before that. They were smart to go get him. Little downside.StrongArmCobra said:Gotta love big receivers who are too slow to really play receiver at a high level and too soft to play TE. #ScoDucks
Dillon is gone, and he was their passing game last season.
I also like big receivers if they play big. I'll take a guy who will catch a ball in traffic to move the chains all day long.
Got it.
Brilliant analysis. You'll be running the Alabama program in no time.
Let me help you out a little since you seem to be a little tone deaf and dumb.
While it IS true that you do NOT want to have a heavy amount of transfers on your lines, It makes little difference for skill positions.
You are basically saying that the Cougs may have messed up by allowing Gardner Minshew to start because Trey Tinsley didn't get the reps He needed last year to win the job this year.
You play the best kids you can get, as many plays as you can play them. If a young guy doesn't see the field because of it, He can redshirt. And with the new RS rules, said disadvantaged kid can play a bunch of games and still redshirt. If He has already burned the RS, and isn't seeing the field, then He probably isn't gonna ever be the GUY at his position, anyway. -

He is. Can't wait to watch him run your defense ragged trying to chase him.greenblood said:
Just ask SAC. Ahmed is bettercreepycoug said:
The thing that will be truly chintresting to see is how they replace Gaskin's production. I missed a lot of games this season for this or that reason, but my general impression was that there were a handful of games that involved "but for Gaskin, we lose". He really was a remarkable runner. I don't think Ahmed is capable of being Gaskin, but he's capable of being other things. He goes down on contact rather easily, so Peterman will have to find a way get him into space. I don't see him being the inside beast runner that Myles was.RaceBannon said:
UW is rebuilding or reloading depending on your confidence. Last year's veteran sqwad did sleep walk through a lot of the season and had the NFL on their mindcreepycoug said:
Agree entirely. UW is winning more than 7 in this conference even if they sleep-walk through 2019.greenblood said:
If UW was in another conference I might agree that there is potential if things went south that 7 wins could happen. But it's the PAC 12. UW's defense alone will win them 7 games, and with a below average offense, they are winning 9 minimum.BleachedAnusDawg said:
QB not a weakness, but the only QB on the roster with playing time at UW puked all over the field at Cal. Yeah, that's not a weakness...UW could be a 7 win or 11+ win team this season, and it all hinges on the great unknown at QB.StrongArmCobra said:
They don't have to. They have the physical talent everybody is looking for. Even little Haener has more arm talent than Browning. QB depth and talent wasn't a weakness for us before Eason transferred in. Keep trying to make it work though.BleachedAnusDawg said:
Disagree. Not one QB on the roster has proven anything, and it sounds to me like, outside of hoping Eason's pedigree bears out, the other QB's are all shit.StrongArmCobra said:
QB was not a weakness or a hole on the roster before Eason transferred. It's a false equivalency. Stop trying to make it work.greenblood said:
If you need to bring in a transfer, you might not have a competitive and talented position group. Your best eligible QB last year threw one td pass all season (to the wrong team)StrongArmCobra said:
One transfer to supplement an already competitive and talented position group is fine. Recruiting a bunch or JUCO transfers and 4-year transfers to fill gaping holes on your roster is different. Building a program is a process and it has to be built on a strong foundation of internal development. A bunch of transfers are either a waste of scholarships that could have gone to high school recruits or if they do pan out they stunt the development of others and leave a hole they previously filled when they leave. Oregon is not Bama. They're UW under Sark. A bunch of attrition due to poor recruiting evaluations and recruiting guys from across the country that are gonna leave if they're not playing early. Coaches trying to fill holes on a sinking boat with bubble gum. It's fun to watch. I got my popcorn ready.greenblood said:
Yeah, Peterson never signed a transfer. Especially at QB, because it might take away from your young QB’s reps.StrongArmCobra said:

Brilliant analysis. You'll be running the Alabama program in no time.
It would be interesting, but not interesting enough for me to do it, to see how teams with the new recruits stepping do in comparison to vet laden teams.
My experience just from watching is that a senior laden team is as often a curse as it is a blessing -
Screenshotting SAC is useless. I don’t want to upgrade storage.greenblood said:
