    Ulofoshio is an instinctive player with high athletic ability. The way Washington has used the ILB position in recent years requires that instinctiveness, along with better-than-average athleticism. BBK had those qualities. Victor and, to a lesser extent, Bierria, had those qualities as well.

    Manu appeared to have some of the instinctiveness, but lacked the speed to act on it. Wellington had better athleticism, but worse instinct. I'd put Sirmon more on the Wellington end, but maybe with a bit better instinctiveness. The whiffs are bad.

    Could a better LB coach get better results? Probably. This is one position where it seems as though the successful players have succeeded despite corching, rather than as a result of it.

    Re: O-line success or lack thereof, I think this year's success compared to last, particularly in pass blocking, is attributable to coaching and improved scheme. Morris certainly has had some impact on that, as well--more mobile/elusive than Eason. But coach-wise, I would say Huff is clearly beneficial to the team, both as a coach and as a recruiter. I think Petersen's offensive scheme was harder to implement, and therefore made it more challenging to coach up the O-line, which is probably the unit that requires the most cohesive operation of any on the team.

    Bob Gregory feels like JAG with coaching, and less impressive on the recruiting side.

    Why even have coaches do anything besides recruit and throw the kidz out there post of the day

    Great quote but Antony goes on to do the opposite of what he initially proclaims.

    Here was a Caesar, when comes such another?

    USC has swagger.

    Our DAWGS took on the persona of pete and were afraid of the playbook and the teams with swag

    People here have been saying Bob got lucky with Azeem, Bierriaiaia, BBK, Eddy, etc.

    At some point it's not luck, it's great coaching.
    Bob didn’t even identify/PWO Eddie when he was playing next to the #1 LB in the country. He came here because it was the closest P5 school to Alaska. He contacted the recruiting staff/coaches.

    Hard disagree.

    If that were the case Russ would never get sacked, but the Hawks line has sucked in pass pro for years and one of the most elusive pocket QBs still get sacked.

    Its 81% line 19% qb
    You need the chair for this take.

    Its almost like "doogs" were complaining about the recruiting of his predecessor for years and Olinemen that are physically ready to play year one are exceedingly rare. How does Huff's line look this year?


    You are such a concrete thinker its probably why you love the "LIPO" philosophy.
    The ancient tribe of LIPOers has been driven to near extinction by our oppressive rulers. We must band together to survive this attempted ethnocide. Rise up!

    The best way to be successful on 3rd or 4th and short...is not to end up in 3rd or 4th and short.

    Our "power success rate" (3rd/4th and 2 or less to go) was 71.4% or 67th in the nation. Mediocre at best but not a killer- some terrible teams are ranked in the top ten and some good teams were worse than us (Minnesota, Oregon, Notre Dame, Utah.)
    Yes, avoid 3rd down at all costs.

    Stanford wins this week and Jimmy sucks again

    I like cocky Jimmy against Oregon and USC.

    You think Bob Gregory is a good coach and I’m the fluffer?
