    1) I don't take much out of Spring Games other than getting impressions of players and how they carry themselves. Williams looked to me to be a guy that has that "it" about him that you expect out of your QB. He looked like he had a strong arm and wasn't afraid of making the tough throw.

    2) What I do know is that if Price would have been able to play against Oregon St, SarkFS would have thrown the ball all over the place like he did in the Apple Cup.

    3) No doubt that the focus on the run game was a huge factor against Oregon St, but Miles was making the throws that he needed to make during the game.

    So you're basically making an excuse for Price ...

    He had plenty of time to be successful in just about every game this year (save for Arizona State) ...

    The #1 thing about Price that I won't miss is his ability to turn right into a defender for a sack. It was like clockwork. The #2 thing I won't miss about Price is his ability to fumble the football without getting hit.

    He got really good at that by holding the football as far away from his body as possible.
    Price may have been the only back I've seen protect the ball by keeping it as far away from his targeted body as possible, and......

    We never had to worry about Price getting injured from late hits.

    We'll have the best OL in years next year due to experienced seniors, then most of it disappears the year after. They know how to run block since that was all Cozzetto could scream at them. So the success of the run game next year is key, since every opponent will have a simple defensive plan to stop the Husky run game and force us to pass with a new QB.

    I watched the QBs closely when I could last year, and Williams is impressive but Miles is ahead now. I expect it to stay that way, but the staff may leave that open into fall camp even if Miles QBs the 1s in the Spring Game.

    But does our line average 332 pounds and are ready to rumble?
