no smiegel 😐
Thanks Taft!
despite the part about lacking elite physical traits, I’m sold!!
Future Tom Brady type, minus the 12 rings and super model ex-wife. Don’t twist.
So basically, this kid is Jake Haener. Cool
if his mom is similar you can sign me up
That’s an excellent point.
Haener got to the NFL. So yes, very cool.
Despite what Pup claimed, I was first on Haener.
I can't ever remember UW getting a recruit from New Jersey.
I'd like UW to also have Smiegel for at least a season before he transfers to Ohio State.
Forgive me for not being excited about a 6’1” QB with no standout traits.
Feces you worthless cunt!
I never really liked Haener as a recruit or starting qb and I originally thought him leaving UW was sour grapes. Looking back it seems he legitimately beat out Eason but Coach Pete didn’t trust his eyes or he made promises to skinny or encouraged him to transfer back home because he had all the measurables to win the starting job. Haener is the definition of a try hard but he proved his moxie but If he is still in the nfl in 3 years I would be shocked.
I definitely think Haener got a raw deal here. He was a solid college QB, and probably a better option than Eason. Recruits like him can turn into good players with enough time and development, the problem is that kids don’t stick around long enough for that to happen anymore. We’re better off letting guys like that start off somewhere else and then poach them if they get good.
Had Heaner stayed he would have been UWs starting QB over Morris and Sirmon in 2020 and 2021 under John Donovan. He would not have sniffed the NFL. He made the correct choice.
Aside, UW makes the semi finals of CFB and subsequently recruits Heaner, Sirmon and Morris. Almost as bad or on par with the Williams, Lindquist, Miles haul.
It's Chinteresting that Haener is the only one of them in the NFL and was the lowest rated out of all of them (the rest were 4 stars).
