    I appreciate him because he’s not Browning or Eason but he still hasn’t done shit.

    I won’t crown a HS QB but Huard throws a pretty ball. The touch is crazy. Whether it will be the same with college DL and exotic blitzes coming at him is the issue.

    Yeah, he won't be playing against the Kentwood or Tahoma defense anymore. All the things said about Huard were said about Eason. It's pretty clear Eason had all the talent he needed and then some but the college game was just too fast for him. He couldn't get in rhythm. The passing windows close much more quickly against 21 year old NFL prospects than they do against 17 year old semi-athletic white kids. This same narrative has followed a ton of 5* all-world talent high school QBs.

    One thing I think will help Huard a lot is that he is clearly very passionate and seems like a guy who will be all in for the team and improving himself. For Eason, UW was just a necessary 1 year stop on his way to the NFL.
    Excellent point

    Eh, the Eason-Huard comp is pretty lazy. Nobody had the sheer arm talent coming out of high school that Eason did. He had (and still does have) an absolute cannon with the ability to make throws almost any other other QB simply can't make. Huard has a noticeably different game with elite (hi @backthepack) accuracy and phenomenal footwork.

    You're right in that the speed of the college game is always the unknown for any QB prospect, but it sure "seems" that Huard has significantly more cerebral upside coming out of HS than Eason did. Though I don't think I could quantify that statement even a little bit.

    Our punter long snapper is more accurate beyond 15 yards.

    Disagree. First beaver TD of the year. Never forget.

    This is a terrible comp, they aren't remotely similar passers.

    The point was similar amounts of praise was heaped upon them, not that they have similar throwing mechanics.

    Jake Browning led a comeback against Utah in 2017.

    And that was his one out of 40 games. Dylan has one through 4.
    Dylan's coach is a lot better at giving the team opportunities for comeback wins than Browning's was, though.
    Needs moar chin.
