    I would be very happy if Huard starts, even if it goes poorly. It’s worth a shot. Morris is bad. I was wrong.

    If they start Huard it would have to be after they get him playing time in game
    Maybe come in against Arizona at the half and start against Furd?

    Should have put him in midway through the 3rd against Montana. Give Morris a "rest"

    Make a wish players don’t move like that. Westover is a make a wish player tho.

    Westover is actually a freak athlete. He’s white tho, so nobody realizes he has one of the highest vert’s on the team and is the opposite of a try hard walk on. He is/was a raw athlete with size that hadn’t played much football.
    Totally agree with this one. The "try hard" label has been misused to the point where it's become blatantly racist. It only gets used on white players and is incorrectly applied whether they remotely fit the stereotype or not.

    You keep focusing on athleticism, but nobody's ever disputed that. If DK Metcalf had a drop rate that Culp had going into this game, he wouldn't be in the NFL. Catching the ball is Priority One when your job is, you know, catching the ball. All the athleticism in the world matters fuck all if you can't. Before last night, Culp was a sad tale of wasted athleticism. Last night, he was King Shit of Turd Mountain. His athleticism had nothing to do with him either randomly catching the ball several times in a row or serendipitously figuring out how to get over his yips just in time for his first start. You can beat your chest for being accidentally right for the wrong reason or, like me, you can laugh at the absurdity of it.
    I don't want to make excuses for the drops but I bet he's over that. In 3 years w. the program he was targeted what, 7 times until last night? It's got to be pretty hard to get in a groove getting so few opportunities to catch passes. For some guys, until they get the chance to be an impact player, their mentality is less about making impact plays and more trying so hard not to fuck up that *surprise* they do.

    The catch that impressed me the most last night was the 30 or so yard reception toward to the left sideline. He took a massive shot by a safety he didn't see coming pretty much right after he caught the ball and hung on. Most guys that ball is dislodged the second that hit comes.

    We? Only care about those who kick ass in practice.

    I don't think Huard is going to be great this year if he plays, but if you're scared to start him against Oregon State what even is the point
    I get that you want him to match his video game stats immediately but he's obviously a young player that will have more success being eased in after more practice. Our frustration with the offence doesn't make him magically ready for action

    Yeah but I like coded racism.
