    We could have lost 5 games with any QB on the roster. Great arm, but actually a little overrated as a pure passer. Not super accurate and surprisingly not that great with the deep ball.

    Pretty good overall, I suppose UW can claim credit for whatever NFL success he gets, good for us.

    Made some great throws but what did he miss because of his shortcomings in mobility, decision-making, and processing?

    He's kind of like the negative image of Jake Locker, with even a less satisfying career.

    It's pretty amazing how ambivalent I am to him leaving. He could get much better if he returned. Then again, he could have the same inconsistencies and poor field vision he had this year.

    Either way, he'll be getting a 3* ranking from me in the Jesse Callier rankings

    That's more or less the same boat that i'm in. I honestly think he needs another year with the Huskies more than the Huskies need another year with him. So long as they can reel in a competent OC, I think we'll be fine with Sirmon or Morris running the show next year.
    We need him a lot more than he needs us.

    And don’t be shocked if Gerbers makes a run at the jerb.

    Which raises a good question is he gonna be here for spring ball?
    Short term yes, seeing as they start off with Michigan next year right off the bat, but they'll be breaking in a new QB as well. Eason could greatly benefit from another year in college though, as he's not ready for the NFL level mentally, whereas the Huskies have some really promising looking guys waiting in the wings.

    Gerbers will obviously be in the mix too, but if he can come in and beat out Sirmon and Morris right off the bat, that will either speak really poorly for them....Or really well for him I suppose. I haven't heard anything about him coming in for spring ball, but I think if he's going to have any chance of beating out the other 2, he needs to be there.

    The problem with the offense isn’t who lines up at QB. It’s the scheme and lack of a TUFF identity based on running the ball at will. We are a faggy pass first team until we aren’t.

    This doesn’t mean that the QB position gets better with Eason gone. There should be a drop off there unless Pete was a fucktard that can’t evaluate talent.

    Fuck I hope not. One that means a super shitty season. Two, the chincumbent true soph starter vs Huard civil war will tear this place and others apart. And everyone else transfers.

    I hadn't really thought about the Huard factor, that's a good point. If anyone else besides Sirmon ends up with the job, that could create a huge problem down the road.

    Imagine him in the 40s playing for Harvard or some shit with the same speed and size. He would have been a legend.
