Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Perfect Time to go to Sam

(prefaced- obviously not happening, but still)

Look at the next four games:

-@Arizona
-@Stanford
-Oregon
-ASU

You could ease Sam into the starting role against one of the worst FBS teams in recent memory. Then you can see what he has against our remaining three decent-good opponents.

If, by some miracle, he goes 4-0 or even 3-1 and UW has a chance at making the championship game- then you burn the redshirt and keep playing him.

If, as is likely, he goes 1-3 or 2-2 then you hang up his cleats due to some kind of minor injury and let DMo play out the string of this meaningless season.

    He will start two games before the Apple cup.

    Yeah, I assume so but that is clearly an inferior strategy as that would mean his first start is likely against ASU (and their conference leading 3.2 sacks per game.)

    It would also mean that we miss any upside potential if he is actually better than Morris because he won't get a chance until the season is already over.

    The season was over in week 1.

    Sam only has 3 games to play without burning his redshirt … not 4 … he got a quarter of play against Arkansas St

    Yeah, but still…

    This redshirt talk is stupid. Sam is not going to be here as a 5th year senior. He'll either be in the NFL or at Fresno State

    I agree but I thought his camp wanted him to redshirt. Just the assumption I was working off of.

    Turns out he played a quarter in our riveting win over Arkansas State so my plan sucks anyway.
