    Depth charts under Pete are meaningless, especially before week 1. If he's getting the majority/plurality of snaps at BYU then I'll be upset.

    Cant wait for him to be a solid player, which is what usually happens when swaye or ddy make these posts

    Not the same thing. BBK played in 2016 and there was only a slight drop off. There has always been a big drop off with Manu. He’s more Sean Constantine than BBK.
    Courageous stance roddie. Really brave

    Remember when the wombat was in the two deeps vs auburn? And then he got meaningful playing time also. Chart will probably change at some point. But chart don't lie.
    If we were playing auburn it would be a different story. We are playing Eastern Washington. Even if Manu "starts" Saturday Sirmon and tafisi will get lots of snaps (probably close to as many if not more than Manu) and I believe Manu will be phased out more and more as the first few weeks progress, just like wombat.

    That is unless manu shows he can play (highly doubt it) and be serviceable.

    I would laugh my ass off (and be pleasantly surprised) if he played out of his mind and made pac 12 first team ...

    There's zero faith in the coaching staff up in this motherfucker. Remember, Lake and K are calling the shots here and adjust defense to their personnel. Until we don't have a top defense in the country, I'm gonna give the benefit of the doubt if they want to play Manu. Many seniors who haven't done fuckall have succeeded. He's got the size. Let's see what this fucker has got. My boy Manu bout to have 6 forced fumbles, 12 sacks, and a fumble 6 with a flip into the endzone. Then he's gonna poop the ball out like Dougie and be banished to the bench for all eternity and become the Washington version of Paul Bunyan.

    Shit, Saturday can't come soon enough.

    My only gripe would be that UW shouldn't be in this position in the first place. Also, one injury to those younger guys starting and we are looking razor thin.
