    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

    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
    You’re showing your age. Old man.

    Also go bears

    Quitters never win. Winners never quit

    That will never be old

    Transferring isn't quitting.

    And he sure looked like a winner when Fresno beat UCLA.

    Looked more like a winner than Eason ever looked for us after he "quit" Georgia to come here.
    Sounds like you agree with me


    If that was your takeaway you should adjust your dementia medication old man.
    You don't like quitters. Neither do I


    No one takes them back. No one

    If UW wants a QB why in the hell would they look to a guy who already walked? Its a big ocean out there with lots of quarterbacks. Some of who have had nice careers at the second or third stop

    No. Your take is horrendous. Haener is so much better than anything we have. Stop going out on a limb with this weak take

    I thought oly bears were smart? Stop making us look bad

    Check out a mirror

    Sark is better than Ty

    We can do better than both

    Small minds small time program small results

    Same as it ever was

    You all probably believe your girl when she says she only cheated once because you're desperate to get laid

    Shop around a bit guys

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

    Haener would have 1 year, he wouldn’t be coming over with 3 years of eligibility left. I doubt Huard leaves because of that and if he does well fuck him then.

    Not contending? So we should just throw the season away and not try to get a better draft pick? I’m confused.
    If Jake Haener can't win the Mountain West, how in the world do you expect him to win the Pac-12? The whole point of hiring him was that he can develop talent. Well then develop, Sam, that's why you were brought here.
    Pac 12 was .500 vs Mountain West this year. 16-24 since 2016 and 13-12 against them in bowl games. Let’s not pretend like the Pac 12 is a juggernaut conference in comparison.
    I'm not saying that at all, but I'm being realistic about where Washington stands in terms of talent. I don't think we are talented as we seem and that this needs to be torn down and rebuilt back up with a culture change which takes time.
    As far as a culture change goes I want players to think they have to come in and compete, not just given the red carpet treatment coming out of high school because of their recruiting ranking. It’s 2021 and I get that the QB position is different especially with the portal and if Sam had played this year and looked pretty good I could see your argument a bit better. But he wasn’t able to beat out Morris who likes to regularly throw into triple coverage and looked TERRIBLE in his first start. Yes the team gave up and played a part but he didn’t do anything well that game, at all. He shouldn’t automatically be handed the starting job if competition is brought in.

    And again it’s one season IF it happens and if Huard isn’t willing to sit and learn for one more season behind a QB who has had success in this current offense then that says a lot about him and his mentality.
    Jake Haener couldn't beat out Jake Browning and Jacob Eason.
    I actually do think he’s a better college QB than Eason. Again, Huard threw 4 picks and couldn’t beat out Dylan fucking Morris.
    Players get better

    Sam has gotten a raw deal development wise with a COVID year plus the malpractice of a staff he played for this year

    The book hasn’t even started to be written about his future as a college football player
    This is all true, but the signs aren’t good. We’ll know once he gets some better coaching. Most, not all but most, really good players, play well no matter what.

    It was a broken offense. I’m not unequivocally saying he’s gonna be a busy, but most QB’s are, and the early returns are really bad.
    I think most running backs and receivers are good right away, this is why I never had any faith in Cam Davis or the Osborne/Spiker hype train.

    quarterbacks not so much unless they are super elite Trevor Lawrence/Bryce Young types.

    Like you said, most five star quarterbacks end up flaming out, just like most coaching hires, but I don't think you can say he's a bust given the situation this season. Don't think he'll be great, still a chance he could be better than average.

    Can he run? No matter who the next QB is they need to be able to run. Pro-style offense in college football is a joke unless you play for a P5 team with elite talent.

    The greatest service the university can now do is request the graduate school to deny his admission
