If Jimmy lands Costello...

    It’s sad we have been so shitty at evaluating and developing the right QB’s. We will be 8-4 without Costello. With Costello, I’ll lean towards 10-2. I don’t see is having an actually good offense no matter what, but we need some competence there.

    I am hopeful that Jimmy will run the ball more and try and be more aggressive up front than Pete was. That’s not really the trend in CFB, but that seems like the best route for our personnel.

    That young group of WRs has to be enticing for Costello

    Is he going to have the athletes catching the ball here that he had on the farm last year? I just wonder how much his ability and numbers were amplified by some huge sure handed targets. As it stands we have Cotton and Puka for real passing threats with Bynum probably being more of a possession guy that looked good with Easons darts.

    Not that he isn't better than the QBs on roster but he had a pretty nice situation down there last year...and lost his job this year.

    All we need in 2020 is a solid running game, stout defense, and a QB who completes 63% of his passes with minimal turnovers.

    Isn’t that what every team needs?

    Swap Costello for Eason, and these are off season Natty poasts from the past 2 years.

    Costello has a much better body of work

    In the Pac 12
    This is true.

    Also true, Jake Browning is the only QB to have won two conference titles as a starter since Mariotta I think.
    You've obviously been hurt badly and don't want to love again only to be crushed yet again. DAWG sense!

    You do what you wanna do
    I'll leave it all up to you
    In time, I'll find love again

    Hot love growin' cold
    Just when you thought you'd found a heart of gold
    Looks like, I've been fooled again

    Oh but it's all right with me now
    I'll get back up somehow
    And with a little luck I'm bound to win

    And I'll fall in love, I'll fall in love again

    And you're always sittin' ring side
    Just a rollin' with the changing tide
    The tide has washed you from my mind

    And I guess you think you've got it made
    Oh but then you never were afraid
    Of anything that you've left behind

    Oh but it's all right with me now
    I'll get back up somehow
    And with a little luck yes I'm bound to win
    'Cause I'll fall in love, yes I'll fall in love again

    You need what Costello has upstairs to beat Michigan. He's a tough competitor, plenty of big game experience.

    It is what it is. Big dick programs have big name turnovers nowadays.

    It's nice to have stability that Peterman wants ... but we see what happened when he tried to please that philosophy when he strung haenous anus around and gave up precious reps to him instead of seasoning Eason.

    Sirmon needs to separate himself (hoping he's gotten a fair shake) otherwise portal ... because ishit is coming and the next and next ...

    True. Seen him play great when Stanford was behind. He makes big throws. My only complaint would be that most of his big throws were jump balls to Arcegia-Whiteside or their always huge TE’s.

    Morris was catching Sirmon. Costello is the perfect stop gap before Huard comes to town.
