    We don't get nice things

    We don't get dimes

    We get what is left at closing and are THANKFUL for it

    Costello has the best resume of any UW QB because the others are FNGs

    I want UW to be aggressive in the Portal because I know the old doogs are all about we want guys that commit as freshman and bleed purple. Just be innovative and try shit.

    If Costello comes here and sucks then throw him out of bed
    Always wait to throw them out of bed until after they suck.

    Those guys all sucked. Costello will start if he comes. No guarantees after that, but c‘mon. Sirmon and Morris aren’t beating him out.

    Um, remember this guy?



    You really think Lake would start a QB against Michigan that he believes doesn't give himself the best chance to win, just because of some pseudo-promise on the recruiting trail? There's gonna be a competition.

    For sure.

    I wanted Newman but that was never really realistic.

    Who is ramping up the narrative? We're not seeing the same things.
    Check out the “If Jimmy lands Costello...” thread.

    Hornibrook, Speight, and Chryst all had success as starters before losing the job at least partially due to injuries the following year.

    Hornibrook’s 2017 stats are comparable to Costello’s 2018 and he was only a soph. And he led Wisconsin to a 13-1 season. Chryst also looked very good after winning the Stanford job in the second half of 2016 before getting injured in 2017.

    Wimbush was a big recruit and one time starter at Notre Dame who it was thought would be a good fit in Heupel’s offense at a lower level. Interestingly he started the opener but then lost his job to a true freshman.
    Hornibrook was the worst QB on a good team in the last 20 years. He literally struggled to throw a football.

    As someone who has seen him live twice, He is nothin special. But the “good” news is that He will get hurt before ya have to kick him to the couch. Solid track record of that.

    If your numbers are solid at most positions and have a scholly to gamble, it’s worth it though. Low expectations should be had.

    TBH, hope he stays on west coast.

    Without reading let me take a shot:

    KJ Costello was on campus today and met with new OC John Donovan. From there Coach Donovan laid out the plan for the new offense and showed KJ the weapons that would be at his disposal. The coaches let Costello know he was a priority and with him at the helm the Pac-12 title would be in play. It's safe to say the Huskies made quite the impression on Mr.Costello.

    I just assumed they read my post.

    Surprised about the lack of interest in Sears from us and other big tim programs. I was doodging hard for him as a commit and thought he do well at USC.

    i think we tend to doog for recruits we've never really seen if Biggins gives them a 4* rating (like Sears), but he fell to eleventeenth on the USC depth chart pretty quickly for some reason and he never seemed to get any interest outside of local LA area D2 schools so maybe he's just not that good.

    He was the best QB on his team

    That seems like one of those things that has been repeated so much online and on the radio that it has become true. Nobody actually has any clue and most of the evidence points to that not being true, but people still say it.

    If he was really that good, he would have tons of suitors right now. I doubt Sears was really the best QB on USC. Slovis is good.

    Lmao @ Loy.... I am liking our chances here though. There is no real upside for a prostyle QB to go play 1 year of air raid, it’s the other way around. I’m guessing he’s looking for an offense close to what he was running.
