Taylor Tharp. Lost to Ty in Husky Stadium. I WAS THERE!!!GrundleStiltzkin said:
I know the gulag beckons, but consider this: Hanes physically matched previous Petersen favored starters much, much more closely than Easons. Browning, Kellen Moore, Zabransky, forgetting another Boysee one. Despite prevailing morphological archetypes in favor of Haener, Petersen choose Eason.DerekJohnson said:
Pete waited almost to the last minute to name Eason the starter. He knew Haener had earned it, I believe.theknowledge said:
Bishop Sankey fumbled the kickoff against LSU and later had the greatest statistical rushing season in Husky history but the whole tim he was breaking records I seethed inside for his part in that 40-3 loss to the Tigers two years before. Just couldn't enjoy it.DerekJohnson said:
As I've said ten times, you can't define a player by one play in their freshman year without it being a biased comment. hthbackthepack said:
He got his chance, he threw a duck and then a pick six to Evan Weaver to lose the Cal game. hth.DerekJohnson said:
I remember you on a couple of occasions telling the story on here of Warren Moon and how he was snubbed by the NFL and went to Canada and became a star. Your disdain was 100% focused on the NFL for snubbing him. No sarcastic references to the "CFL All-Star".RaceBannon said:
So Eason beat hm out and he quitDerekJohnson said:
Who said anything about a mystery force? The way I read into it, Pete put much time and effort to recruit Eason back to UW. With all the hype that surrounded his return, and the year he sat out there was enormous anticipation and an expectation that the job was his. I remember all the angst on here about why Pete wasn't naming the starting QB as fall camp proceeded to its conclusion. Then with a week to go, Pete names Eason the starter and Haener announces his transfer. It's pretty cut and dried.RaceBannon said:Pete was a control freak. He played who he wanted to play, The idea that some mystery force made him choose Eason is retarded
De Boer put his money on a guy that had never played more than 6 games over Haener who he coached
Get real. The kid is a small time legend not D1 material
You're superficially biased because Haener physically looks like he should be doing your taxes, not leading your favorite football team.
Got it
That's the extent of my concern over the MWC all star
But Haener gets unfairly snubbed by UW and goes elsewhere where there's opportunity and becomes a star... and your focus is squarely on Haener for being a worthless quitter?
Got it.
That said, @GreenRiverGatorz is completely correct. I said earlier Pete may have been influenced to go with Eason. Retarded take, I admit. Eason had what Pete loved, banked reps and more game experience. He's also correct in saying no one was succeeding in that offense with those weapons. Lastly Heaner would have ended his time at UW with the stink of Donovan all over him. The polished product we see now is not the same jalopy that would have emerged from the 2019-2021 program.
But we will agree to disagree. -
Team Haener was convinced that DeBoer would bring him with him. DeBoer chose a gimpy lad from Indiana and the rest is history
Two Husky head coaches passed on Haener. But sure its's a wide reaching vast conspiracy where control freak Pete was forced by unseen and indescribable forces to start Eason
Every QB gets excuses for shitty Petersen coaching except Eason who did well before the shitty offense froze up as usual -

Of course you don't have a counter argument because you don't even have an argument

What are you talking about?RaceBannon said:Of course you don't have a counter argument because you don't even have an argument
You've referred to him as a quitter, a loser and now a gimp. A QB who has had two outstanding seasons and has won nine consecutive starts.
I can't take your comments seriously on this topic. You've got a case of HDS.
I've made my arguments repeatedly and your response in the past couple days is to call him a quitter and a gimp. Then you play the "you don't have an argument" line. Calling Haener a gimp, quitter and loser is beyond the pale. But that's fine. You've got your opinion and I've got mine. I'm good with that. -
Actually I made the logical argument as to why he wasn't named the starter. Twice he was picked over by the Husky coach
He did quit. Didn't call him a gimp. You're clearly overwrought and emotional about the subject. Maybe take a walk for some needed perspective
You "feel" like Petersen didn't choose him for some mysterious reason. That's not an argument
And Eason wasn't why the 2019 team was underwhelming -
This thread delivers.
But come on, anyone who thinks Haener was a better quarterback option than Eason at the time is playing a game of revisionist history.
And Eason was really really good that year. The coaching sucked. -
It's somewhat hard to tell because not only did his coaching/scheme suck, but his receivers sucked (only one with size basically opted out that year), and he was forcing it to a tweener tight end.TheHB said:This thread delivers.

He single handedly lost the Utah game. Could argue the Stanford game too. -
