Hallmarks of UW football are defense and running game. Neither is great under DeBoer, so when the rest of the team doesn’t compensate (i.e., Penix and the passing game have a bad day) old-timey fans get irritated. It may not be rational, but it’s what we grew up on appreciating.
The starting center has been out since the first week or two. We're playing a true soph, true freshman, another starter is in and out due to injury.
Their position coach is a great recruiter and evaluator of talent but has never coached a good run blocking OL that didn't have Gaskin/Ahmed behind it.
So he’s a shitty coach. Got it.
When Oregon State has to declare for the Mountain West, let Huff go OC somewhere else (he interviewed at Cal) and throw money at Jim Michalczik.
But also the lowest hanging fruit. Any unit, no matter how untalented they are, can be good tacklers. That we are not is a giant indictment on the attention to details from our DCs.
