    Paul Arnold.

    Lustyk - poor dude was both a much ballyhooed bust and in the same class as Entenmen, so is forever tied to the "you never know" example. I'd hate to be him.

    Arnold would have been in the Husky HOF had he not had a bad back. Kid was the total package.

    I always felt like Stanback could’ve been otherworldly with the right coaching. He almost beat USC down there on a last minute drive and then some ref fuckery at the end put that shit to bed. I think that was the same game where Carroll did some faggy trick play where he hid a guy along the sideline.

    This. But I can't say he didn't work out.

    Many are recent QBs. Casey Paus, Nick Montana, Cyler Miles, Yankoff, Huard. Lots of misses there

    Curtis Shaw

    Ariel ngata
    Jake Locker
    Asa Turner (pending)
    Antonio Cooks

    And so many more.

    Ariel Ngata was another guy that after the 2021 UW @ Utah game "looked amazing" to the @Tequilla @CokeGreaterThanPepsi and @Dennis_DeYoung podcast.

    To be fair, UW D played just okay and still won comfortably.
    Zero instincts. Poor nose for the ball. Some guys can't be taught. They just can't

    Leave it to you to not understand a self? deprecating joke. He flipped to UW from Oregon, remember? So he is a Husky who did not pan out, for Oregon. The amount of simple shit that just fucking flies over your head is astounding.

    He was never going to play for Oregon.

    Simple shit. Reminds me of your career.
