    When Jack retires from the NFL, returns to Seattle and cashes Bank from the local deep pockets in the wink, wink deal to forgo millions of guaranteed money when he sacrificed Self for Sark and UW by returning one more year... Price can go work for him.

    He didn't have the smarts to play QB. Should have tried out WR in college.

    Sark didn't give a fuck about Price, that much was clearly evident.

    With a real coach, Price wouldnt be playing on two bum knees and wouldve likely been drafted.

    Early years

    Reilly played three seasons for Kamiakin High School in Kennewick, Washington, before relocating to Kalispell, Montana. As a senior, he set a Flathead High School record with 2,280 yards. He originally signed with NAIA Montana Tech, but chose to walk on at Washington State.

For his career he completed 64 percent of his passes over his four years as a starter for 12,448 yards, 118 touchdowns and only 40 interceptions.

    After redshirting at Washington State as a 5th-string quarterback, Reilly decided he didn't want to bide his time waiting for playing time. Central Washington offered him a chance to start right away so he transferred.

    Green Bay Packers

    On Nov. 19, 2009, Reilly was signed to the Green Bay Packers practice squad.
    St. Louis Rams

    On December 9, 2009, he was signed off the Packers' practice squad by the St. Louis Rams. He was waived on May 4, 2010.
    Seattle Seahawks

    Reilly was claimed off waivers by the Seattle Seahawks on May 4, 2010. He was waived on May 18, 2010.
    BC Lions

    On July 26, 2010, it was announced that Reilly had signed a practice roster agreement with the BC Lions. On August 26, 2010 Reilly was activated by the Lions and spent the remainder of the year as the third-string quarterback.[1] He dressed for all 18 games in 2011 as the third-string quarterback and shared in the Lions' 99th Grey Cup victory. He got his first pro start on October 19, 2012, against the Edmonton Eskimos due to an injury to Travis Lulay. Reilly completed 19 of 28 throwing attempts for 276 yards with two touchdowns and one interception, leading the Lions to victory of over the Edmonton Eskimos 39-19. The win clinched a first round bye for the BC Lions in the 100th Grey Cup Playoffs.
    Edmonton Eskimos

    On January 31, 2013, Reilly was traded to the Edmonton Eskimos by the BC Lions; the trade included the exchange of the clubs' second round picks in the 2013 CFL Draft and the Lions receiving the Eskimos' second round pick in the 2014 CFL Draft.[2] Entering the 2013 CFL season Reilly was in open competition with Matt Nichols for the starting quarterback job. [3] Nichols tore his ACL in preseason which made Reilly the starting QB for the season. On August 18 2013 (Week 8) Reilly threw for over 500 yards in a losing cause, the fourth highest performance for yards passing in a single game in the history of the Eskimos football club. In his first season as a full-time starter in the CFL Reilly threw for 4,207 yards, with 24 touchdowns and 18 interceptions. He also finished 5th in the league in rushing yards with 709. Despite his efforts the Eskimos struggled all season finishing with a record of 4-14 and missing the playoffs.

    This will be unpopular here, but you guys are putting too much blame on Sark. He's a shitty coach, but how he handled Price is pretty low on the list. Fielding undisciplined teams, the shit recruiting at OL were way bigger issues, and being dude brah were way bigger issues. Joey's, the recruiting bus, the rumor about girls on his boat the week of the Oregon game. This guy is a frat boy masquerading as a head football coach. However, the one thing he is competent at is coaching QB's. Hate it all you want, he's put more QB's in the NFL than just about any coach.

    I'm surprised Price was cut this soon. I actually thought he had a fairly good chance at making the practice squad. Hopefully, he was cut this early because Carroll/Schneider are doing him a favor and letting him find a better opportunity because he didn't have a chance to make the Seahawks.

    He's far from the first good college QB who wasn't NFL caliber. There are QB's who get great coaching who don't make it. It's not always the coach's fault a guy doesn't succeed in the NFL. The fact is, Price is pretty small and has limited mobility. Smaller QB's are getting more of a chance nowadays, but most of those guys are mobile.

    1) Decent point. The trust issues comment was stupid. As far as leaving him in too long, it was often so Price could pad his stats (see Cal and Colorado this year). There were a few times when we were getting plungered that Price was out there too long. I don't think that is really that relevant to what he does in the NFL though.

    2) I don't think he's a magical QB guru, but who is? The fact is, he has put more QB's in the NFL than any other college coach. That's a fact. Other coaches are getting 4 and 5 star guys too. He has some clue about coaching QB's and getting them to the NFL.

    3) 2012 definitely hampered Price's development. At the time, I was pissed at Sark. It was right after Garnett, Banner, and Williams said fuck you and his recruiting issues were fresh in our minds. Sark gets some blame for not recruiting any OL in 2009, but we had to wait for the "Cascade Front" from 2010 to develop. In 2009, it's very debatable we would have gotten any good OL. Price and Trufant were the only good players from the shitty class. It is inexcusable he got none. It's not hard to look at the roster and see a huge need. In his defense, he took 7 the year after.

    The Cascade Front were first time starters in 2012 (they were young), got better in 2013, and I'm optimistic about them this year. We didn't have anyone else. It's as much, and in my opinon much more Ty's fault for not recruiting any decent OL from 2007 and 2008. Not to mention, Riva and Tanigawa went down in the first 2 weeks. Sark deserves some of this blame, but it's definitely less than I gave him at the time. It was unfortunate for Price and he wasn't the same after. It's not entirely Sark's fault though.

    4) Price was a good college QB. Sark has some issues with playcalling, but those were often abandoning the run at the wrong times. He gave Price the chance to sling it around and Price put up good numbers under him. Connor Shaw played for Steve Spurrier, had a 24-1 TD:INT ratio in the SEC, is more mobile than Price and went undrafted. Kellen Moore broke records at Boise State. He wasn't drafted either and is a 3rd string QB now in Detroit and will be out of the league soon. There are only so many spots in the NFL.

    5) Good job. You finally stopped being a cunt and made a football post. It was your best effort in weeks, maybe ever.

    5) Good job. You finally stopped being a cunt and made a football post. It was your best effort in weeks, maybe ever.

    1) Price did get his stats padded a tad from staying in against the Little Sisters of The Poor, but it also heightened his risk for injury. I remember him getting hit pretty hard a few times in the 4th (when Miles should've been in 10 minutes prior) and being fucking pissed.

    2) The QBs he has put into the NFL haven't done much. And again, he had access to the best QB recruits in the country, playing behind one of the best OL's in the country, on one of the best teams in the country. He has some clue, yes, but he greatly harmed Price's chance at an NFL career. Most QBs who put up Price-like numbers get drafter, and don't have two fucked up knees.

    3) Dude, are you REALLY blaming Ty for Sark's OL? W, JW. Sark had plenty of time to analyze his team and search for deficiencies. Anyone with half a brain could've seen the OL needed more bodies. Yet still, he didn't emphasize the OL in recruiting. He didn't have good backup options after whiffing on Garnett, Banner, etc. In short, he fucked up. And Price paid the price.

    4) Sark's issues with playcalling wasn't limited to abandoning the run. Instead of throwing the ball down the field, he called a bunch of those half-assed lateral passes that he was so fucking fond of. He also was a fucking idiot when it came to the timing of his playcalls. Typical Sark series against a competent defense:

    1st and 10: Incomplete pass
    2nd and 10: Polk/Sankey rush for 2 yards
    3rd and 8: Lateral pass for no gain

    Connor Shaw had the throwing mechanics of Tim Tebow. The only reason why Price didn't get drafted is because Sark threw him under the proverbial bus.

    5) If you think this is my best effort, you haven't been paying attention. When it's the actual football season, I consistently make football related observations. I also made threads recently discussing the Pac-12, and I've gotten a lot of flack recently for my belief that WSU is going to be good next year.

    Looking back at my post, it was stupid to mention Ty and 2007. Those shitty players would have been graduated anyways. However, there was not one upperclass OL in 2012 besides Schaeffer. That was the real issue. Sark does deserve all the blame for getting none in 2009, but it's also wishful thinking that they would be any good when every player but 2 from that class was dreck.

    A true freshman Garnett would have played, but the OL still would have sucked. Porter medically retired before the year. Tanigawa, Riva, and Kohler all got hurt in the first two weeks. Any school that loses 4 starters on the OL is going to be in trouble. The depth wasn't there, but part of that is bad luck with injuries. 4 starters being out is rare. The thing is, the OL still would have been below average with all 4 healthy. It was never going to be good.

    Ty blew it in 2008, Sark blew it in 2009. Sark tried to take care of it by recruiting 7 in 2010. 4 of those guys got hurt in 2012. Sark completely fucked up 2011 OL recruiting, but true freshman OL aren't going to help much anyways. I agree with you about 2012 hurting Price, but the OL was bound to be shitty that year, and I think that's regardless of who was our coach.

    Price didn't get cut because of his stats. He put up good stats (although a lot of QB's do in this era). His health issues hurt him, along with the OL. I'm in complete agreement there. I just don't think the only reason he's not there is Sark. There aren't many QB's smaller than him, and every one I can think of but Chase Daniel is way more mobile than he is.

    I really thought he had a decent chance at making the NFL, and maybe he still does. I'll put my money where my mouth is, I bet Sark gets Kessler to the NFL and if he doesn't flame out (he will) the next qb (Max Browne or Ricky Town) will get to the NFL too. He's a shitty coach who will always have undisciplined teams, but he has a decent system for QB's and a track record of getting them to the NFL.

    Sark's QB's that he's had his hands on:

    Matt Leinart: NFL bust
    John David Booty: Has never taken a snap in the NFL
    Mark Sanchez: NFL bust
    Jake Locker: NFL Bust
    Keith Price: probably will never take a snap in the NFL

    I think it's time Doogs stop praising him as a QB "genius" when every QB he's coached hasn't done shit.

    But how is Sark a bad quarterback coach?

    Easier said than done to get JC lineman to UW. We haven't had much, if any success at all getting them. The one OL Sark did sign in 2009 was a JC guy who never got in. Who was the last JC OL to play well at UW? I guess Wes Call in 2000 was decent.

    What college coach has multiple successful NFL QB's? David Cutcliffe with the Manning brothers is the only one. After him, I will be waiting. Give me some college coaches with more. I'll bet Sven's $1,000,000 you won't come up with any.

    I think it's still too early to consider Locker a bust. It's all dependent on how he does this year.

    If he gets hurt again or has a sub-par season, then yeah, he's a bust.

    That's not the main point I was making. My point is that anyone couldve gotten those QBs into the NFL. Their college success was a product of the USC Carrol-led juggernaut, not Sark saying, "bro, throw a tighter spiral next time, man!"

    He's not a QB genius, but it's a fact that he has put more QB's in the NFL than any other college coach. Tedford is close. All of his guys but Rodgers are busts too. Most NFL QB's are busts. That's just the nature of the beast. There is no coach that has more than one successful NFL QB besides Cutcliffe.

    There is no way to really know if that's true. With the talent USC put around those guys, I think you are probably right. I don't think Sark is a mastermind for getting those guys from USC or Locker to the NFL. Still, nobody else has done it. It's not like Florida, Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia, Texas, and Michigan don't have 4 and 5 star QB's like USC did. Every QB they trot out is a 4 or 5 star and they have good talent around them too.

    What college coach has multiple successful NFL QB's? David Cutcliffe with the Manning brothers is the only one. After him, I will be waiting. Give me some college coaches with more. I'll bet Sven's $1,000,000 you won't come up with any.

    That's not the main point I was making. My point is that anyone couldve gotten those QBs into the NFL. Their college success was a product of the USC Carrol-led juggernaut, not Sark saying, "bro, throw a tighter spiral next time, man!"

    They didn't have Pete Carroll running the show

    Easier said than done to get JC lineman to UW. We don't have much success at all getting them. The one OL Sark did sign in 2009 was a JC guy who never got in.

    Since when did you become such a Doog for Sark?
    Broad brush. Debate the QB stuff, don't call me a doog for Sark. I hated Sark and wanted him gone after the Alamo Bowl, for certain after the LSU game. His problems weren't coaching Price though. He did a decent job with the guy and not everything unfortunate that happened to Price was Sark's fault.

    One of Sark's biggest problems is all he cares about is the QB, star WR's, and maybe a stud RB. He doesn't care about the big picture. He doesn't care about having strong, dominant lines, great special teams, and discipline. Of course he wants those, but he doesn't put in the necessary work or emphasize that stuff. If you are a QB, RB, or WR, he's a fine coach to play for. You will get your stats under him. He sucks at everything else.

    USC/Locker ran a pro style though. While those schools care about their current program than getting guys to the NFL. Most spread QB's until a few years ago weren't considered for the NFL since the NFL was strictly pro style.

    I remember Tressel saying on Pryor his job is to win games not prepare one kid out of 85 for the NFL. That statement was made in 2010 when Sark was more worried about preparing one kid out of 85 to the NFL than the team.
