    Our secondary (scholarship athletes only) right now is:

    Travell Dixon (RS-SR)
    Marcus Peters (RS-JR)
    Brandon Beaver (RS-SO)
    Kevin King (TR-SO)
    Trevor Walker (TR-SO)
    Jermaine Kelly (RS-FR)

    Six scholarship players for the remainder of the Spring with 2 being upperclassmen (and Dixon being a JUCO transfer, so not really the same kinda upperclassman that Peters is). Clearly our biggest weakness moving into 2014, so it's nice to see that Petersen addressed depth by bringing in 7 DBs for this fall. Also worth noting that Brian Clay is a JR who transferred from Hawaii who's had a good off-season. There'll be depth when the season rolls around, which is what we need more than anything.

    Point being, 8 out of 13 players will be freshman in the secondary this season. However, that youth shouldn't be an excuse for this team. We'll have talent out there and a competent DBs coach out there getting them prepared for game situations. The beginning of the schedule is stupid easy, so by the time Stanford and Oregon roll around, Kelly and the 7 True Froshes will have 4-6 games under their belts and have real game experience.

    Youth should never be an excuse with this team.

    Right. Like I said. Young. Just like every year for the last 20 years. A young secondary.

    How can we expect to beat Eastern with such a young secondary?

    I'm not blaming Peete for the secondary problem, but watch it.... the media can act as an excuse proxy for the coach. AND -- these new DB recruits... how many will last? The secondary is young excuse is almost always used (yes, last year was a slight improvement but it is a steady fall back).

    Be cool if you had a guy in your secondary named Young. Sark would approve.

    Propaganda is what Sark was feeding you while you were busy polishing his sack, and the Huskies were blowing an 18 point lead against the fucking Coogers.

    A .876 winning percentage - in any conference - isn't propaganda, dumbass. It's a record that speaks for itself. If you don't hear it, it's because your head is in your ass.

    It never should have been an excuse. Doog morons have been using since 2003. There are usually some weak spots, even on great teams (Seahawk's o line and wide receivers come to mind).

    The youth excuse actually started in 2000 by Ted Miller who was describing our skill guys.

    UW was still the favorites and expected to win conference in spite of youth.

    Youth became a crutch during the Ty years which is funny because in 2006 and 2007 we had 20+ fifth year seniors.

    As always Doogs ignored the facts on Ty as Doogs hate facts.

    Just like they always said Sark had a young team in 2010 because he played 16 true freshman. I used to always tell them that number is so high because Sark is a dumb fuck. Look at the contributors on that 2010 team they were all upperclassman or in the case of Chris Polk a redshirt sophomore.

    I remember the secondary was thin even back in the last couple of Lambo years. The secondary is ALWAYS YOUNG, with the possible exception of last season, where there was a slight improvement.

    I'm not debating any of that just telling the story of when "We are young" was official which was 2000 by Ted Miller. Became a crutch under Ty even though we actually weren't young.

    Unless there are two srs. and 17 freshmen starting or receiving significant playing time it's always bullshit. I remember pointing out to people on Dawgman that LSU and Oregon had more young players and we did. The more I think about Kim's lies and propaganda and their minion's stupidity, the more I shake my head.
    Oh I used to always point that out how Oregon is actually younger than us back in 2010-2012. Sark like Ty actually had some experienced teams in his second and third year. Much more experienced teams than Petersen will have in year two.

    Great talent become starters as Freshmen. If they don't, they either weren't as talented as the lemonparty TBS "experts" thought they were or, they are stuck behind NFL talent at their position.
