Also confirmed how dominant the defense today was. A couple of troubling things I heard from him in his analysis.
In listening to his breakdown of the qb's (all 3) as of right now I think he believes their overall games are all jag's at best. Obviously not fair to Huard, but both him and Cam Cleeland have major concerns about any of the 3's ability to avoid pressure and extend plays which I 1000% agree with. It's those 3 +/- empty possessions a game that keeps your team scoring in the low/mid 20's which puts a ceiling on what you can do unless you make up for it (++ results) in other areas like turnovers.
Then in his breakdown of the wr's I got the impression as a group that so far what he's seen is not even at the qb's level. Saying they get no separation, no yac, not explosive, too many possession type guys, etc.
Also said the defense was and should be ahead of the offense, and defense was bringing blitzes which on day 2 might be a little unusual, and we all get how good Mcduffie is at cb, but he seems underwhelmed with the wr group right now.
If you heard the interview, anyone else pick up on anything both good or bad?

As Hugh articulated, the offense takes time to get going. Completely expected. Jimmy needs to shut the blitz’s down. The Defense should start vanilla. DL shooting correct gaps, LB getting proper keys, DBs correct technique. On and on.
Another point, all 3 QBs lack the threat to extend plays. That’s an issue and makes it easier on the defense. Run the damn ball and immobile QBs will continue to stifle the offense. Not promising
Blitzing on the second day of spring practice absolutely helps nobody. Offense or defense
That dipshit also said Russell as a rookie would go 6-10. Even after winning a SB Russell’s height is a problem.
Hugh will defend locker to this day and it was always the receivers fault.
Hugh is trash.
The game has changed. I prefer different guys now.
Kinda weird UW's last team to win a Rosebowl included a dual threat QB paired with a great defense
