    Jake Locker smack here shows a real lack of ability to read the room

    We hated Jack before it was cool

    Would have been a helluva safety.

    Jake could have been the greatest safety of all time at Washington. Better to do the hitting than getting hit.

    I doubt that. It's fun jibber jabber, but I'll believe he could have been > than Lawyer Milloy when I actually see him be > than Lawyer Milloy.
    Running back all the way. I find the safety talk pretty dumb. We all saw what he could do at the college level as a ball carrier. Nobody has anything but speculation to go on as far as safety goes. I'm sure a couple of guys here saw him play it in HS.

    The truth is that he was the best QB at UW while he was there and it's not even a conversation. He played where he needed to play.

    Same as Stanback before him. Did he have the physical tools to play about five other positions? Yes. Was he good enough at any of them to definitively say he should have played one? No. Did UW need him at QB. Yes.
    Isaiah Stanback: the best athlete to ever play football at Washington.

    Talk me out of it.

    Uh, no. It most definitely is not.

    I've been on the Stanback stance for years. Dial-in Irishdawg22. He'll vouch.

    I like how some people still think that if you don't have NFL potential you cant be a great college quarterback. I like that

    This is just a rough guess, but many, or dare I say most, QBs who were integral to their program's successful seasons college weren't good at the next level. And I can think of so many NFL QBs whose college teams weren't that good; and so many more who weren't NFL QBs who led great teams.

    UW, USC, Miami, Texas, Oklahoma, Bama, Buck, Oregon, Florida State, Florida, Tennessee, Penn State, LSU ... those programs alone, off the top of my head, had legions of QBs that were destined to just be college guys but who were balls in college and critical to their team's success.
