    Blame KB for missing on all the big time RB recruits, but I don’t think he plays objectively worse players just because they’ve been around longer.

    You had me until this. Kamari Pleasant should never touch the ball.

    I think people are chasing the dragon a bit because of Myles Gaskin. We were spoiled having him for 4 years, and people like Fudgie really want one of the 47 RBs on the roster to break away from the pack and be the next Gaskin. So Fudgie is putting down McGrew, who’s a genuinely good but not elite player, because we already know he isn’t ever going to be Gaskin. Then he can Doog it up about the unproven RBs because there’s a small chance that they could be a diamond in the rough.

    I agree that’s it’s frustrating to give a ton of carries to McGrew/Pleasant/Newton when the younger guys like Cam Davis have shown occasional flashes. But those established guys are still solid players, and the likelihood is that the young guys aren’t going any better than them. If they were, then they’d be getting a ton of carries over established guys like Gaskin did early on.

    Legend, for making a coug defecate

    He’s a very average runner but is the best pass blocking RB on the team, rather easily.

    He’s fine against the OSU, WSU, Arizona etc. but he hasn’t really done shit against anyone good ever.

    McGrew was good in Autzen in 2018 … just off the top of my head
    It’s a dumb argument because we don’t play that many opponents that would be considered good by the board. Players tend to do worse against good opponents too.

    McGrew has been our best RB at times the last two years. That said, he’s nothing special. We need to be better at RB.
    I agree with this.

    Washington's biggest bowl wins were all with solid but not great RBs. 1984 Orange Bowl (J. Robinson) 1992 Rose Bowl (Barry and Bryant) 2001 Rose Bowl (Rich Alexis and Willie Hurst) Total NFL carries for this group: 0.

    You’re cherry picking.

    ‘85: Jacques Robinson, RICK FENNEY

    ‘92: Beno Bryant, Jay Barry, NAPOLEON KAUFMAN

    ‘01: Willie Hurst, Braxton Cleman, Rich Alexis, Paul Arnold

    These are three of the best RB rooms UW has ever seen. Fenney and Kaufman both had long NFL careers.

    I like this kid as an athlete. I am not sure I like him at tailback. And he is committed to a school that doesn’t run the damn ball. Either way it will be I retesting.

    I think they're going to be a lot more balanced as Leach's players graduate out.
    They are incredibly dumb if they don’t use Borghi heavily. PGOS and I have been on the Borghi bandwagon for years.

    He’s really good tho. I saw him truck Hufunga from USC a few years ago. He should and would be an All Conference RB if they actually use him.
    I remember when we were making fun of the cougs for taking a white RB, but the kid can play and catch extremely well out of the backfield. I think he will make an NFL roster one day
    McGrew would actually thrive at WSU.
    He wouldn’t see the field.
    He's a good little scatback with good hands. He would pick up a lot of yards on draw plays and check down screens. More space for him to maneuver. He is ill fitted to what UW has been doing.
    They have the same guy, but he’s also bigger, faster, stronger, and has better hands.

    The backup is probably better than McGrew too.
    Yeah, Borghi is similiar and bigger and likely better. McGrew is a very skilled back though, he would do even better at WSU than at UW.
