Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Seattle Times article on John Ross/Darrell Daniels

http://blogs.seattletimes.com/huskyfootball/2014/04/06/uws-john-ross-darrell-daniels-adjusting-to-new-roles/

“We feel like we trust the coaches now. Not that we didn’t before, but, you know, it’s just that change,” Ross said. “Now we’re giving in to everything they’re saying, and everything’s moving faster because we’re understanding more things and we just want to learn and get better each and every day.”

Glad we burned Daniels redshirt last year. Don't know if we could have won a special 9 games without his 3 tackles on special teams last season.......

Ross had only played WR on the outside in high school so naturally Sark had him play inside all last year. So Petersen due to not being a total dumb fuck has him playing outside again. Petersen unlike Dude Brah personally coaches Ross one on one for kickoff return. What a novel concept? A head coach giving a flying fuck about special teams instead of dance practices.

Daniels I think could be a big X factor as well. Right now the TE position is up for grabs and he's up to 241 so if he can emerge as our starting TE this offense can be very dangerous.

    I like the idea of Daniels and I know the hands issue has been beaten to death, but there's too much smoke for me not to buy into it. I even read a quote about him working with Troy to become a natural pass catcher and not as stiff. I can't find it, but I swear I read it a few weeks ago. I want him to be the TE though because size/speed wise, he would be a freak and a match up nightmare.

    ASJ didn't exactly have good hands either and we bag on him for being a pussy but I'd love to have him back as a TE.

    With Daniels size/speed plus getting coached up he can be a very productive TE. I'll also laugh if Hartvigson(Doog all-american) doesn't see the field once again.

    I remember in 2011/2012 Doogs saying he'd start on half the teams in the conference.

    ASJ being a fat fuck helped the OL a bit...do you guys think his loss hurts blocking at all or is it negligible?

    Exactly right on Hartivgson....the guy is a fucking Doog legend who just doesn't have the talent to make an impact.

    Hopefully Daniels can be a Fred Davis type TE. If he emerges as a threat then combined with Kasen, String and Ross...that is fucking deadly. Petersen has to be thinking he has the most skill position talent he's ever had.

    Didn't String just tweet/Instagram "bye bye Seattle"
    Hopefully, DD remains agile enough to be a possession receiver after Kasen graduates.

    We know Sark sucked but its getting old hearing his players throw him under the bus, its one thing coming from all the coaching wannabe's but not from his own crew, move on boys!

    The truth never gets old.

    I thought Kim said there are players who are not buying what Petersen is selling? I'd like to here more from these guys. All I hear is about how much more the players ARE buying in. I demand equal representation.

    ASJ was actually a decent run blocker last year. Given that he was about the size of an offensive tackle, this shouldn't be a surprise.

    ASJ had the softest and most reliable hands on the offense . Where do you come up with this shit?
    Do you even watch the games? He had average hands. Dropped plenty of passes including a huge one against Stanford.

    Agree with Boobs can we ban PLSS from making serious football posts?
