    If they haven't promised the starting job to Costello if he comes here he's not coming here.

    He's not sitting the bench his senior year.

    Every school he talks to is going to promise him the starting job. Any school he goes to is also not going to give it to him if he's not the best option. Leach took a grad transfer just last season. Gage Gabrud, Cuog legend in the spring. Rode the pine his senior season while Gordon started.

    Lake will tell Costello anything he needs to tell him, but that doesn't mean shit. And unless Costello is a moron, he knows this.

    Feel kinda bad for Sirmon. Kids been committed since what, his sophomore year of HS? UW fan his whole life... this feels like kind of doing him dirty that he's not going to get a chance to prove himself.

    It's not like he's talentless...

    If the faggot fundy Xtian can't handle the heat, fuck him. If he can, and he wins the job over Costello, he comes out even stronger. If he can and he loses the 2020 job to Costello, he'll have every advantage in a 4 way QB battle come 2021.

    Costello notwithstanding, I still think he's the favorite to be the starter next year, and I'll bet someone a Wam membership on it.
    He’s not. If they really had trust in him , he would start this year and they wouldn’t be trying to get a transfer QB. I would say he would probably be the least likely starter a year from now. It’s now or never.
    Yeah, I think he tried to transfer last year because Morris outplayed him in camp. Pete convinced him to stay because he would be the backup. I think he'd be gone even if Costello doesnt come here.

    If you are a #2 in college football in today's world and younger than the #1 you are nuts to transfer. The likelihood of a starter lasting the entire season is small, and unless you have a body of work/hype some other school is willing to bet the farm on you are either going to transfer to a small school or transfer into the same situation somewhere else.

    If you can't win the number #2 job though...

    This makes too much sense to a grocer such as myself. My guess is it would probably go over the head of a BIG DICK backup QB in division 1 college football. Nice try.

    Don't let him leave without committing.

    The Coug were comparing him to Tom Brady! Either way, the point stands. EVERY coach will promise him the job. Every coach will turn that into a lie if he doesn't earn it. What's to lose?

    Mississippi State would be a decision so bizarre it would force the NCAA to do concussion protocol on Costello every week.

    Pro-Style vs Air Raid,
    No need to get your isht pushed in by LSU, Bama, TAMU, Auburn
    Benefits of a state with a average IQ over 100
    Lack of a full rip and replace of coaches

    If you are a One and Done you have to go to a contender. Going to a school where you’ll likely get your ass pounded and benched by mid-season is ill advised.

    Disagree.

    Although I don't think the QB battles is settled at all, the Huskies will have only three quarterbacks on the roster this season, and one will be 18 years old and another is a constant portal threat. Although he'd definitely get the chance to compete for the position, I don't think it's a foregone conclusion at all that Costello would be given the starting job. I think whether they like what they have or not, the numbers at quarterback are shit as fuck next year, and they need another warm body.

    For whatever reason, Sirmon was the backup last year after Haener left, not Morris. Maybe that was just politics to reward him for not portalling (portaling?), but it is a datapoint.

    Either way, the entire offense from the ground up is new this year, so a QB competition will start from ground zero, not some advantaged position for those who "know the offense." Even Garbers will be on level footing, coming in in the spring. Occam's razor suggests they need numbers at the position, and the one who performs best in spring/fall will get the job.

    And one or two of the others will transfer.
    If they haven't promised the starting job to Costello if he comes here he's not coming here.

    He's not sitting the bench his senior year.
    He would also be the best QB, rather easily.
