Doesn't really move the needle for me. Jimmy lost me when he hired Donavan and retained Gregory. Costello or no Costello, our? offense is still going to be run by a washed up, third rate, running back intern/brick layer. We're fucked.
Also, what could have been a generationally good defense next year will be held back by Bob's shitty recruiting and development at LB... Jimmy could have shit-canned him, but he brought that useless sack of shit back.
Oklahoma sends a transfer QB to the award ceremony every year. What’s the problem with that?
Is Lincoln Reilly walking in the door some time soon?
So only he can do it?
This is the UW mentality
Also known as a loser mentality
Who the fuck cares how? Just win.
We dont need transfers. We dont need JC players. We don't need anything to remain relentlessly mediocre
Fuck that
Jimmy better be sleeping in the office now figuring every fucking angle
This isnt intramurals brother. This is D1 football
I don’t know anything about intramural sports at UW, Race. I’ve been in the IMA like twice.
I don’t understand the disagreement. I said earlier in the thread that I just want to win now baby and if Costello can help us do that then so be it.
I’m just not expecting him to win the Heisman- i.e., Lincoln Reilly magic.
It used to be said in these parts only losers worship the QB position.
It’s not about worship. It’s about improvement at the most important position. Mediocre can get us a shorty Rose Bowl. I have serious doubts Sirmon and/or Morris teaming up with Donovan. With Costello, the potential of a Rose Bowl returns.

It’s an old Race quote about messiah QBs. He doesn’t have to be great. Just good.
Skinny was good enough too and we pissed it all away.
Costello would be a massive QB upgrade for the 2020 Washington team
Maybe. You like everyone else dont know that though.
I'm with Terrance and Phillip on this one. The Hardcore Husky Way seems to be to complain about something and then almost immediately contradict that complaint with the next one.
When Haener was in the neverending QB battle, it was, "Get Sirmon in there; he's a million times more talented." Now it's, "Sirmon is shitty, and only a transfer QB can save us."
I suppose there's a needle you can thread whereby both are correct, but... What I saw during the Petersen era is that the offense looked broken no matter what QB was running it. Cyler Miles had a gimpy hip and awful throwing motion, but he actually looked decent in his one game in the spread-to-run offense Sark stole from Arizona et al., then he went downhill from there. Browning seemed to get worse every year in the system. Eason seemed to get worse every game he played.
That's three completely different quarterbacks, physically and mentally, and all of them regressed. Which is to say I don't think any of us have any fucking clue what Sirmon or Morris can do. We DEFINITELY don't have any clue what Garbers can do. New head coach. New OC. New offense. Three new OL starters. New receivers. New RB1. This is a complete reshuffle, and it's entirely plausible that we see another Keith Price "Who the fook is that guy?" surprising performance by one of the current players.
Of COURSE a proven player like Costello is more likely to succeed. The safe bet is the one you actually have information to back up. But the extreme confidence here that Costello would definitely be an upgrade is strange to me. We won't even know what we had until the offense is fixed. If Costello came here as a freshman, running Petersen's offense, this might be a thread about our 2020 offseason natty now that that dipshit, run-backward, throw pick-sixes Costello is finally out of the program. With a completely new staff and offense in place, I wouldn't be shocked if Sirmon or Morris--or even Garbers stepped up and took that job.
The Coug thought for sure that Gage Gabrud* was going to come in and save them like Minshew had. Then he got beat out by unheralded JUCO transfer Anthony Gordon and was never heard from again.
*Apparently it doesn't go without saying that Costello is in another league from Gabrud, but that's irrelevant to the analogy. Besides, Sirmon and Morris and Garbers are also in another league from Gordon. Counting your chickens before they hatch is still counting your chickens before they hatch.

This
Wanting to be the best we can is not a bad thing
If he helps great. If he doesn't nothing lost
Or we just wait for the year after next
Again
And keep pissing away a good defense
Petersen and his meek rigidity is gone. Either you're all in or your out
Nobody is saying it's a sure thing. If you only go after sure things you go after nothing
I dont give a fuck about posters. Its UW that has this smug mediocrity and are proud of it

Dis guy gets it. But there's no fun in being rational. We got an off season natty to kick start. Sco War Eagle!

Well of course we gotta wait for it to happen, but Costello is a huge upgrade. You are really overrating our players. Our QB situation without Costello is bad. I never liked either Sirmon or Morris.
