Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
What is Washington's All-Raw Deal Team?

This was @WoolleyDoog's idea on our last podcast. Who are the top Huskies who got a raw deal, one way or another, while at UW?
Off the top of my head, some players I have felt bad for:
Brendan Radley-Hiles -- Talented and aggressive kid who transfers from Oklahoma to UW probably because he thought we were DB U. Instead he ends up playing for one of the shittiest teams and coaches of all tim.
Aaron Jenkins: One of the top running back recruits in the western United States in the mid 1980s. Tore up his knee early on and became a pedestrian fullback. Got his degree though.
Dylan Morris: If he ever had a chance to be decent at all, it was destroyed by playing for Lake and Donovan.
EJ Savannah - Had the ability to be a pro linebacker, either NFL or CFL. Instead, ended up hanging out with me at Herb Mead's office after Tyrone Willingham quasi-suspended him for reasons that he would never disclose, even to EJ (according to EJ).
Chris Hemphill - A legitimate NFL prospect who was Suddenly Seniored by Willingham in 2006. The rare times he got to play, he put up impressive numbers.

Hemphill for sure. Craig Chambers. Some of it was his own doing. Greyson Gunheim. Was played as a 6’6” 220 lb true freshman d end since we had nobody else. Had a solid last year but another year he could have been all conference. Cody Bruns. Played one game to burn redshirt.

Colin Porter. Shoulder injury derailed what looked like a promising career. Shane Fortney. Hated him as a kid for leaving, was tuned in by HCH on a late night drunk rant that Lambo fucked that kid over. My bad.

Marcel Reese. Freak athlete, should sue Tyrone
-
Isaiah Stanback has a place on this team, I believe. What he could have done with some actual development...such a phenomenal athlete and competitor.

Ben Davidson
Donnie Moore

Marcell Reece.
A fucking incredible athlete that could play WR, TE, RB, and FB in the NFL that was barely used on terrible Tyrone Willingham teams.
He has the longest UW play in history (98 yards) on a stupid playaction passing from Lockner in his own endzone where he fucking torched the entire Arizona defense. Of course UW still lost the game. -
Anyone that played for Ty

Jeremy Brigham barely played because we were so stacked at TE in the 90’s. Played in the nfl.
Stanback was wasted with crappy coaching and a ill timed injury.
Chris Stevens always made plays on those Tyrone teams and promptly was ushered back to the bench.
Jesse caller and Deontae Cooper both were promising prior to injuries. That was a shame. -
Quinten Pounds. Jimmy was just a big bully to the little fella.
