    I'm intrigued by Haener coming back since he's comfortable and proven in this system. Hell he was even in the Heisman conversation for a bit this season. I do think we need to hit the portal regardless to build up depth & in case Sam still isn't ready. But like Sonics mentioned, you better be fucking careful that you don't risk the future for a 1 year rebuilding year. If ceiling is 7-8 wins, I'd rather take lumps with Sam same way we did with Browning as a Freshmen.

    I love Sonics but his take here is off. Haener is way better than Huard right now and we take him in a heartbeat.

    Sonics also wasn’t a fan of DeBoner initially but has since come around. The same will happen with Haener and he’ll warm up to it.

    If Sam portals because he had to sit out one year learning the system then good riddance

    It's not like we are contending next year, so why not start building with Sam? And worst case, what if Sam leaves?

    Why not? The defense shouldn't be any worse than what we saw and the offense should take a huge step forward, especially with a competent QB. Give Sam a year to get actual coaching and be ready to kill it as a junior.

    I'm all for taking Haener.
    I’m hearing another 10 win Season, rather easily.
    Anything less than 8 is a failure.

    10 is optimistic but a possibility.
    Rinse.Lather.Repeat then.

    I understand why expectations would make you uncomfortable.

    Pat pat.

    i like how people are complaining about our dicks not being big enough but then balking at actually trying to win games next year

    So the quitter coming back is trying to win games?

    Interesting

    Its going to be hilarious when Haener transfer to UW and sucks, Morris transfers to Fresno State and is incredible under Tedford, and Huard transfers to SDSU and sits for the rest of his career.

    If Sam portals because he had to sit out one year learning the system then good riddance

    UW has a ton of soft players who think they are stars. If some transfer, good. Culture change.

    I agree

    So enough of the hot Haener talk
