Levi isn’t Gaines, Qualls or Vea and you know it and the dudes around him that have played aren’t the next Levi O or Johnson. Your returning front seven talent are all JAGS. Levi is an above average player and Tryon will be good. Outside of those two they’re not special. What you’re saying is guys that never played a snap will level up the defense.
Lol
"But you lost Danny Shelton so your Dline is going to regress." Sure, ok. NYBE.
Lol, what does he have to do to get your “developer” tag? He took kids like Barber (off the field issues not talent prevented him from signing), Cooper, Vaeao and the played a major role with Ekuale and Hercules in making the all conference type players. A lot of why WSU was in a good spot after he left was because he identified talent and developed there.
UW mowed over his WSU D-lines every year. Will be no different at Oregon. He's just not recruiting well enough. I'd be calling for him to be fired if I was you but I guess you have lower standards.
Right, because you mowed down Oregon’s DL for whooping 24 points in regulation.
UW didn't have a problem moving the ball on Oregon last season. They should have ran the ball more because it was working, even with McGrew and Pleasant in the game in the second half.
There's really not any statistical evidence to support that claim.
First of all, UW ran the ball 66% of the time. You are in diminishing returns territory if you go beyond that. Secondly, outside of Gaskin, you couldn't sustain successful drives with a 4.1 ypc and the variance there was in outcomes. You had rate at a 33% unsuccessful rate in the run game that put you behind the chains with over 10% rate in negative plays.
Bottom line the running game was pretty mediocre and more of it wasn't the answer, especially with Gaskin hurt.
UW out gained Oregon on the road and had a pretty good day rushing the ball even without Myles Gaskin in the second half. Oregon's D-line did not outperform UW's O-line. Oregon's D-line recruiting is getting worse, not better. UW will have no problem running the ball on Oregon for years to come. No more stacking the box because you know noodle arm can't beat you deep. Our next QB's can all bomb it down the field and we have and are getting the WR talent to go deep. Oregon can either get ran on or get the ball thrown over their heads, take your pick.
Lol, Oregon played a 3-4 cover 3 for most of that game and played UWs' run game in check with a 7 man box except on short yardage. Oregon played a deep safety and bailed two dbs on almost every play. I have looked at that game three ways to Sunday. Your prognosis is not steeped in anything analytical.
1 - all the running backs on your roster are no where near as consistent as Gaskins. If you look at the standard deviation of their outcomes, it's almost twice for Ahmed. Unfortunately, Ahmed is not the type of back to regularly get 5 yards. After two years of regular playing time, expecting something different is hopeful. Pleasant was no different except the smaller sample size.
2 - Oregon's dline is trending up not down. There is nothing remotely close about this take. Last year's dline was the 85 composite club. Carlberg, Faoliu, Scott, Baker and Cumberlander were all 84 or 85 composite players. Jelks was the highest rated as a sub 87 composite. You're basing this on your feelings and nothing is grounded in facts. Like literally every player that Big Joe has recruited is rated as good as or better than this current senior group. Afease and Shipley are par for the course for Oregon on the DL. Last class was a nice uptick.
3- Eason has shown nothing that demonstrates he has it between the ears. He has all the arm talent in the world. He just doesn't have the fortitude you want in a superstar. Most kids that go in the first round have a 1) superb talent and 2) a worth ethic second to none. That 2) is why Fromm is the starter at Georgia. Also, Hamden is telling kids on the trail that Haener is a legit contender to be the starter. There is no way Haener should be getting the amount of #1 snaps he did in spring if there weren't some truth to this. If Eason is the clear cut starter, the staff is a) trying to light a fire under Eason's ass or b) following a process to a fault. Those aren't good options. When reading the tea leaves, I assume competency. What I am saying isn't all tea leaves either (let's just say it's more than scuttlebutt).
4 - Unless the pass rush doesn't improve for UW, Eason is either going to be Mr. Dump Off or a wounded by a duck. Brown had 4.7 speed and was slippery. Eason is more like Mettenberger.
There are like no 1st or 2nd team conference players in your front seven going into the season. There are a lot of reason to think this game will come down to wire again.
Levi isn’t Gaines, Qualls or Vea and you know it and the dudes around him that have played aren’t the next Levi O or Johnson. Your returning front seven talent are all JAGS. Levi is an above average player and Tryon will be good. Outside of those two they’re not special. What you’re saying is guys that never played a snap will level up the defense.
Lol
Levi will be drafted no lower than the 2nd round when he leaves UW. He's going to be a breakout player for UW this season. Lol JAGs? So Taki Taimani and Tuli Letuligasenoa are JAGS now? That's weird, I seem to remember those guys being able to go anywhere in the country when they were recruits. But just because they haven't played yet they're JAGs? Sure bud.
Member how Gaines and Vea were pretty good as RS Freshman? Especially Gaines? Same thing applies with those two. Gaines actually said they were both more advanced than he was as a Freshman. Then you got Benning Potoa'e who's a perfect fit inside at DT. His quickness is hard for interior lineman to deal with and he's a stout run stopper. Josiah Bronson is talented as well and will be in the rotation. A couple of the true Freshman can't be counted out as well. Paama and Bandes are Vea and Gaines 2.0. Tryon is the headliner at OLB but Bowman, Ngata, and Rice can all get after the QB as well. You'll just have to wait and see man. UW is a defensive powerhouse and have leveled up in recruiting every year. This UW defense will dominate.
Nope. They won’t.
It’s almost like our defense has gotten better every year!
Lol, what does he have to do to get your “developer” tag? He took kids like Barber (off the field issues not talent prevented him from signing), Cooper, Vaeao and the played a major role with Ekuale and Hercules in making the all conference type players.

Ahmed will be the best back in the conference. He's elite.
Your D-line recruiting is shit and has been shit for a long time. If Jordon Scott and Austin Fauloaloalo are the best D-lineman on your roster, that means your D-line recruiting has been absolute shit. Stacking more 3-stars on top of that is not an improvement. It's shit recruiting dude. You're a quook if you disagree.
How do you go from saying "Eason has shown nothing" to "He doesn't have what it takes to be a superstar". That's a contradiction. How the fuck would you know what his potential is? He hasn't played for us yet. Hamdan isn't telling anybody shit about Haener. What the fuck are you talking about? You're just making shit up at this point. Haener was an interception machine all of Spring ball. He has no shot. Petersen is just waiting for Eason to really assert himself as the guy in Fall camp. Just because he's talented doesn't mean the offense has fully clicked for him yet. It takes time. He's had two Spring balls running UW"s offense. The rest of the time was on scout team running other team's plays. That's not a lot of reps running UW's offense.
Let's not forget Sam Darnold didn't blow away USC's coaches in Spring ball or Fall camp before becoming the starter a couple of games into the season. Some guys just need to be named the starter before they can really take off and perform at a high level. Nobody is surprised Eason hasn't blown everybody away. He has one season of playing experience and is still learning UW's offense.
The bottom line is, Jacob Eason is very talented and started as a true Freshman for Georgia and was better as a true Freshman at Georgia than Herbert was as a true Freshman at Oregon. Did he have great stats? No, but he made some throws as a true Freshman that Herbert has yet to make as a three-year starter. If he's good enough for Georgia, he's good enough for UW. Nobody knows what he will become at UW. But your constant doubting of him is clearly biased and retarded. You haven't seen him play a down for UW. You don't know anything. You just HOPE he doesn't pan out.
Leave it to a quook to be all about pre-season all-conference picks. Quooks are all about hype. We're all about substance and post-season all-conference picks here. How would anybody be able to accurately pick how many all-conference players UW is going to have when they don't even know who most of UW's starters will be? Pre-season all-conference picks are based on returning experience and that's it. They don't reflect how talented a team is. UW will have the most talented team in the North and likely the conference.
I don't really care, and your post was overall pretty reasonable with one or two exceptions, but the bold was rather rich coming from you.
And while I'm not a big Herbert guy myself and find him to be pretty inconsistent, he has made some big league throws in his time at Oregon, and is overall at least as physically talented as skinny, if not more so because he's a better runner. He also hasn't been working with lights out WR talent, and last season he pretty much had one guy to throw to.
Lol, what does he have to do to get your “developer” tag? He took kids like Barber (off the field issues not talent prevented him from signing), Cooper, Vaeao and the played a major role with Ekuale and Hercules in making the all conference type players.

"But you lost Danny Shelton so your Dline is going to regress." Sure, ok. NYBE.
I will admit that that UW reloads on defense and I did say the floor is high with your team. However, saying the defense will level up is pure doogery. I am making the case for a little regression, not some cliff dive. There’s a reason Bronson and Clark are former walk-ons put on schollie. When Shelton left there was Qualls, when Qualls left there was Vea and when Vea left there was Gaines. Replacing two safeties, a nose guard and both ILBs with dudes that have never played (Wellington played some snaps but nothing about his play screams all conference). Also, Levin is not in the mold of Gaines.
Also, please note that I think Oregon is a 9-3 team. It’s called self awareness.

Skinny has the better arm and ball trajectories.
Herbert the better athlete.
Both are elite physical talents.
Herbert only throws fast balls. Everyone wants to blame the WRs but at some point Herbert get some thrown his way.

I am making the case for a little regression, not some cliff dive. There’s a reason Bronson and Clark are former walk-ons put on schollie. When Shelton left there was Qualls, when Qualls left there was Vea and when Vea left there was Gaines. Replacing two safeties, a nose guard and both ILBs with dudes that have never played (Wellington played some snaps but nothing about his play screams all conference). Also, Levin is not in the mold of Gaines.
Also, please note that I think Oregon is a 9-3 team. It’s called self awareness.
And when Gaines left there were Tuli and Taki. You wanna act like Bronson and Clark will be starters. They'll be third string at best and might get surpassed by a true Freshman.
Lol, what does he have to do to get your “developer” tag? He took kids like Barber (off the field issues not talent prevented him from signing), Cooper, Vaeao and the played a major role with Ekuale and Hercules in making the all conference type players. A lot of why WSU was in a good spot after he left was because he identified talent and developed there.
UW mowed over his WSU D-lines every year. Will be no different at Oregon. He's just not recruiting well enough. I'd be calling for him to be fired if I was you but I guess you have lower standards.
Right, because you mowed down Oregon’s DL for whooping 24 points in regulation.
UW didn't have a problem moving the ball on Oregon last season. They should have ran the ball more because it was working, even with McGrew and Pleasant in the game in the second half.
There's really not any statistical evidence to support that claim.
First of all, UW ran the ball 66% of the time. You are in diminishing returns territory if you go beyond that. Secondly, outside of Gaskin, you couldn't sustain successful drives with a 4.1 ypc and the variance there was in outcomes. You had rate at a 33% unsuccessful rate in the run game that put you behind the chains with over 10% rate in negative plays.
Bottom line the running game was pretty mediocre and more of it wasn't the answer, especially with Gaskin hurt.
UW out gained Oregon on the road and had a pretty good day rushing the ball even without Myles Gaskin in the second half. Oregon's D-line did not outperform UW's O-line. Oregon's D-line recruiting is getting worse, not better. UW will have no problem running the ball on Oregon for years to come. No more stacking the box because you know noodle arm can't beat you deep. Our next QB's can all bomb it down the field and we have and are getting the WR talent to go deep. Oregon can either get ran on or get the ball thrown over their heads, take your pick.
Lol, Oregon played a 3-4 cover 3 for most of that game and played UWs' run game in check with a 7 man box except on short yardage. Oregon played a deep safety and bailed two dbs on almost every play. I have looked at that game three ways to Sunday. Your prognosis is not steeped in anything analytical.
1 - all the running backs on your roster are no where near as consistent as Gaskins. If you look at the standard deviation of their outcomes, it's almost twice for Ahmed. Unfortunately, Ahmed is not the type of back to regularly get 5 yards. After two years of regular playing time, expecting something different is hopeful. Pleasant was no different except the smaller sample size.
2 - Oregon's dline is trending up not down. There is nothing remotely close about this take. Last year's dline was the 85 composite club. Carlberg, Faoliu, Scott, Baker and Cumberlander were all 84 or 85 composite players. Jelks was the highest rated as a sub 87 composite. You're basing this on your feelings and nothing is grounded in facts. Like literally every player that Big Joe has recruited is rated as good as or better than this current senior group. Afease and Shipley are par for the course for Oregon on the DL. Last class was a nice uptick.
3- Eason has shown nothing that demonstrates he has it between the ears. He has all the arm talent in the world. He just doesn't have the fortitude you want in a superstar. Most kids that go in the first round have a 1) superb talent and 2) a worth ethic second to none. That 2) is why Fromm is the starter at Georgia. Also, Hamden is telling kids on the trail that Haener is a legit contender to be the starter. There is no way Haener should be getting the amount of #1 snaps he did in spring if there weren't some truth to this. If Eason is the clear cut starter, the staff is a) trying to light a fire under Eason's ass or b) following a process to a fault. Those aren't good options. When reading the tea leaves, I assume competency. What I am saying isn't all tea leaves either (let's just say it's more than scuttlebutt).
4 - Unless the pass rush doesn't improve for UW, Eason is either going to be Mr. Dump Off or a wounded by a duck. Brown had 4.7 speed and was slippery. Eason is more like Mettenberger.
There are like no 1st or 2nd team conference players in your front seven going into the season. There are a lot of reason to think this game will come down to wire again.
Ahmed will be the best back in the conference. He's elite.
Your D-line recruiting is shit and has been shit for a long time. If Jordon Scott and Austin Fauloaloalo are the best D-lineman on your roster, that means your D-line recruiting has been absolute shit. Stacking more 3-stars on top of that is not an improvement. It's shit recruiting dude. You're a quook if you disagree.
How do you go from saying "Eason has shown nothing" to "He doesn't have what it takes to be a superstar". That's a contradiction. How the fuck would you know what his potential is? He hasn't played for us yet. Hamdan isn't telling anybody shit about Haener. What the fuck are you talking about? You're just making shit up at this point. Haener was an interception machine all of Spring ball. He has no shot. Petersen is just waiting for Eason to really assert himself as the guy in Fall camp. Just because he's talented doesn't mean the offense has fully clicked for him yet. It takes time. He's had two Spring balls running UW"s offense. The rest of the time was on scout team running other team's plays. That's not a lot of reps running UW's offense.
Let's not forget Sam Darnold didn't blow away USC's coaches in Spring ball or Fall camp before becoming the starter a couple of games into the season. Some guys just need to be named the starter before they can really take off and perform at a high level. Nobody is surprised Eason hasn't blown everybody away. He has one season of playing experience and is still learning UW's offense.
The bottom line is, Jacob Eason is very talented and started as a true Freshman for Georgia and was better as a true Freshman at Georgia than Herbert was as a true Freshman at Oregon. Did he have great stats? No, but he made some throws as a true Freshman that Herbert has yet to make as a three-year starter. If he's good enough for Georgia, he's good enough for UW. Nobody knows what he will become at UW. But your constant doubting of him is clearly biased and retarded. You haven't seen him play a down for UW. You don't know anything. You just HOPE he doesn't pan out.
Leave it to a quook to be all about pre-season all-conference picks. Quooks are all about hype. We're all about substance and post-season all-conference picks here. How would anybody be able to accurately pick how many all-conference players UW is going to have when they don't even know who most of UW's starters will be? Pre-season all-conference picks are based on returning experience and that's it. They don't reflect how talented a team is. UW will have the most talented team in the North and likely the conference.
I don't really care, and your post was overall pretty reasonable with one or two exceptions, but the bold was rather rich coming from you.
And while I'm not a big Herbert guy myself and find him to be pretty inconsistent, he has made some big league throws in his time at Oregon, and is overall at least as physically talented as skinny, if not more so because he's a better runner. He also hasn't been working with lights out WR talent, and last season he pretty much had one guy to throw to.
Skinny has the better arm and ball trajectories.
Herbert the better athlete.
Both are elite physical talents.
Herbert only throws fast balls. Everyone wants to blame the WRs but at some point Herbert get some thrown his way.
The WRs were garbage last year except for Mitchell. Schooler is flat out atrocious. Whatever Herberts problems were, the WR core other than Mitchell didn't help him.
Lol, what does he have to do to get your “developer” tag?

Yup, they drop the ball a lot because it's difficult to catch that fastball shit over and over again. Herbert needs to learn how to throw the ball at different speeds and trajectories to make it easier to catch for his guys.

Levi isn’t Gaines, Qualls or Vea and you know it and the dudes around him that have played aren’t the next Levi O or Johnson. Your returning front seven talent are all JAGS. Levi is an above average player and Tryon will be good. Outside of those two they’re not special. What you’re saying is guys that never played a snap will level up the defense.
Lol

And when Gaines left there were Tuli and Taki. You wanna act like Bronson and Clark will be starters. They'll be third string.
The difference those guys I mentioned could’ve been drafted when they returned.
Apparently drops were down 80% in spring. I think Coach Johnson was atrocious as well. Bouknight said he had to go over their release off the line with the entire unit.
There's no difference. Those guys you mentioned all started playing for UW as RS Freshman and UW's defense was really good with them playing as RS Freshman. It's the same with Tuli and Taki. Talent wins. Experience is for mediocre programs that don't have a lot of talent.

Those players had the benefit of playing next to someone experienced and talented. We can go around in circles on this but the 2019 season is new territory for UW. We just aren’t going to agree. The fact that you concede nothing is blockheaded.
I am sure Taki and Tuli will be good and flash dominance. They will also make some frosh mistakes too. UW is in for another 3 loss season in the the regular season.

You keep trying to find excuses man. Tuli and Taki will be paired with one of the veteran older guys when they play so they have someone on the field they can communicate with who knows the defense inside and out. The top-4 rotation will be Taki and Levi and then Tuli and Benning. They'll be fine.
UW is going anywhere from 10-2 to 12-0. Cal is a trap game because of their defense and UW's offense breaking in a new QB and RB. After that, they'll be favored to win every game because all their toughest games are at home. Their defense will dominate. Run game will dominate. It's just a matter of getting the passing game dialed in to decide if they go to the Rose Bowl or the Playoffs.

Yeah, and vea wasn't shelton, and gaines wasn't vea, and now Levi won't be gaines.
If you want to talk about how we still won't have a pass rush, go for it but the interior D-line is going to be more than enough to squish the shit out of the PAC12. The question mark is if we have enough depth and experience to last into bowel season and compete with bigger fish. Not if we can continue to have a good Dline regular season.

UW is going anywhere from 10-2 to 12-0. Cal is a trap game because of their defense and UW's offense breaking in a new QB and RB. After that, they'll be favored to win every game because all their toughest games are at home. Their defense will dominate. Run game will dominate. It's just a matter of getting the passing game dialed in to decide if they go to the Rose Bowl or the Playoffs.
9-3
If they had a big non conference game the first game of the season while breaking in a new QB and RB, I'd say 9-3 is a possibility. But that's not the case. UW's defense will be too dominant for them to lose more than two games with their schedule and the offense would have to absolutely shit themselves for those two losses to happen. Our secondary is literally the best we've ever had under Petersen and nobody outside of UW fans knows it, yet.

And while I'm not a big Herbert guy myself and find him to be pretty inconsistent, he has made some big league throws in his time at Oregon, and is overall at least as physically talented as skinny, if not more so because he's a better runner. He also hasn't been working with lights out WR talent, and last season he pretty much had one guy to throw to.
Herbert the better athlete.
Both are elite physical talents.
Also, please note that I think Oregon is a 9-3 team. It’s called self awareness.
Those players had the benefit of playing next to someone experienced and talented. We can go around in circles on this but the 2019 season is new territory for UW. We just aren’t going to agree. The fact that you concede nothing is blockheaded.

If you want to talk about how we still won't have a pass rush, go for it but the interior D-line is going to be more than enough to squish the shit out of the PAC12. The question mark is if we have enough depth and experience to last into bowel season and compete with bigger fish. Not if we can continue to have a good Dline regular season.
