    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.
    Imagine comparing KJ Costello to Gabe Gabrud
    Plenty of hyped grad transfer QBs have ended up not getting the job or only a timeshare.

    Hornibrook (Wisconsin to FSU), Wimbush (Notre Dame to UCF), Stevens (PSU to Miss St), Chryst (Stanford to Tenn), Speight (Mich to UCLA), Dawkins (Arizona to Indiana).

    1to392831 has it right. You promise the job but once you get him on campus it’s best man wins.
    Those guys all sucked. Costello will start if he comes. No guarantees after that, but c‘mon. Sirmon and Morris aren’t beating him out.
    Probably not but we don’t really know what we have in Morris or Garbers so can’t say for sure.

    Costello might have a slightly better resume than a Hornibrook or Chryst but he is nowhere near the league of a Hurts or Fields.
    We don't get nice things

    We don't get dimes

    We get what is left at closing and are THANKFUL for it

    Costello has the best resume of any UW QB because the others are FNGs

    I want UW to be aggressive in the Portal because I know the old doogs are all about we want guys that commit as freshman and bleed purple. Just be innovative and try shit.

    If Costello comes here and sucks then throw him out of bed
    As someone who has seen him live twice, He is nothin special. But the “good” news is that He will get hurt before ya have to kick him to the couch. Solid track record of that.

    If your numbers are solid at most positions and have a scholly to gamble, it’s worth it though. Low expectations should be had.

    TBH, hope he stays on west coast.

    Without reading let me take a shot:

    KJ Costello was on campus today and met with new OC John Donovan. From there Coach Donovan laid out the plan for the new offense and showed KJ the weapons that would be at his disposal. The coaches let Costello know he was a priority and with him at the helm the Pac-12 title would be in play. It's safe to say the Huskies made quite the impression on Mr.Costello.

    I just assumed they read my post.

    Surprised about the lack of interest in Sears from us and other big tim programs. I was doodging hard for him as a commit and thought he do well at USC.

    i think we tend to doog for recruits we've never really seen if Biggins gives them a 4* rating (like Sears), but he fell to eleventeenth on the USC depth chart pretty quickly for some reason and he never seemed to get any interest outside of local LA area D2 schools so maybe he's just not that good.

    He was the best QB on his team

    That seems like one of those things that has been repeated so much online and on the radio that it has become true. Nobody actually has any clue and most of the evidence points to that not being true, but people still say it.

    If he was really that good, he would have tons of suitors right now. I doubt Sears was really the best QB on USC. Slovis is good.

    Lmao @ Loy.... I am liking our chances here though. There is no real upside for a prostyle QB to go play 1 year of air raid, it’s the other way around. I’m guessing he’s looking for an offense close to what he was running.
