    I used to play the race card on this one, but I've backed off from it in recent years because I know my city is pretty progressive and enlightened on such matters. Especially when compared to places like the soufeastern US and the Willamette Valley, from whence fuck face and his band of hillbillies hail. I think there could be some related cultural undertones there - Garfield is our inner city and Ferndale is our bible belt. That kind of shit. And Lockner had that hackneyed Farm Boy shit routine going that Keith Jackson would have lopped up like a thirsty dog. IS was all city.

    As far as comparing careers, Stanback's numbers are not going to match Lockner's. We? know that. But ...

    He ended up ranked in numerous school career and single-season statistical categories: second in career passing yards per completion with 14.38; third in career rushing yards by a quarterback with 794; fourth in career yards of total offense per game with 6.16; sixth in career passing yards per attempt with 7.40; sixth in career rushing attempts by a quarterback with 234; tenth in career total offense with 4,662 yards; eleventh in career passing with 3,868 yards; eleventh in career attempts with 523; 12th in career completions with 269; 14th in career touchdown passes with 22.

    despite only playing QB full time his junior and senior seasons for a then-retarded program. While he was waiting his turn, he was playing WR, not preparing to be a QB.

    I honestly don't disagree with any of that.

    And still, if not for that snapped ankle at Oregon State he might have left a legacy here.
    At Hussy (lol) Stadium. Race and I were there.

    I mean Jake ran 172 times for damn near 6 yards a carry and 13 TDs. As a freshman.

    Isaiah never did anything close to that.

    Obviously he never got to run the spread option and maybe he could have had those kind of results if he did. But for Jake it wasn't hypothetical athleticism, it was demonstrated athleticism.

    I don't agree that it's primarily racism that caused Jake to get so much more attention. It was the fact he was a state champion in HS which allowed him to have more hype coming in and the fact his freshman year was so damn productive (as a runner).

    IS had neither of those things to create hype.

    He's definitely under appreciated. And Jake's definitely overrated. But there were reasons for both without having to play the race card.
    Isaiah didn’t have much wiggle at all. Straight line speed. He started too far behind by playing for Garfield to ever master the nuances of playing QB. Not to mention, he wasn’t very accurate.

    Obviously he would have been better playing for a good program, but I don’t think he would have been a star anywhere.

    Being on Dawgman at that time there was a lot of Stanback hate and as usual it was to prop up Ty and due to racism. The doogs all said how Ty was going to recruit Black talent and all he did was turn the team white and shitty

    No way Lockner gets the pub he got if he was Black. He sucked

    Creepy is right about IS. Fucking waste

    Was Jack Lockner? I know the big boy out pattern was a throw he struggled with as but one example.

    Also, I don't recall Stanback having accuracy issues. Is that a real thing or urban legend?

    It's a little of both. He wasn't statistically accurate QB. His throwing accuracy was fine though. He didn't miss open guys. He had to throw the ball away a ton and most of them were not throwaways that many fans would recognize. They werr auto throw, zero read, out patterns and hitches to hopelessly blanketed receivers. The offense was such a train wreck then. IS was actually good at protecting the ball, and throwing balls where the defense couldn't reach them frequently meant the receivers couldn't either.

    Yep. I read a little when I searched up the clip yesterday. Lappano apparently felt the same. He said Stanback had told him he could throw it 80 yards but that he didn't believe him. He was walking out as the play happened.

    I remember doing some 8th grade geometry and coming up with about 73 yards in the air at the catch point. The exact spots of the release and catch are debatable due to the camera angle, but thats pretty close. He caught it pretty high so it would have gone 74 or 75 if allowed to fall to the turf.

    I dont know for certain at all, but I doubt theres ever been another clean throw and catch in a college or NFL game quite like that one.
    I haven't seen it if there was.

    Regarding stanback, the dude was raw AF, but had the tools you can't teach to be a game changer at the nfl level

    It's a travesty how the coaching staff failed him, I can only imagine how bitter I would be coming to terms with it

    I talked personally to a couple of players on Willingham teams, and they don't hold back on their disdain for the way he ran the team

    That that this is new information or anything

    He was on KJR a couple months ago and was still gushing over Ty. Said the fans didn't know him like they did. Kinda sad.
