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

Has Troy Williams been named the starter yet?

    The thing with Price was that it was clear watching him that he wasn't the kind of QB that was going to lead you to a conference championship. The HOPE was that Miles could give you comparable play with a little bit of an added spark.

    The thing about Williams is he's a sub 50% passer in scrimmages with a buttload of INTs, and he's basically Nick Montana with regards to YPCatch = expect a lot of weak 4-7 yard passes. Williams isn't the answer just yet...maybe next year. Huskies will quickly tire of his "poor down-field vision".

    Miles is the best UW has right now. UW simply needs to run for 250+ yards a game with Miles as the starter, or lose.

    I'd like to see Lindy substituted in for 3-4 plays at a time and do almost solely the option and an occasional long pass.

    I think Browning is the next Cody Pickett - may not get into the NFL, but he will probably set records at UW like he has been doing in HS.

    This team knows Miles is a loser. If Petermen doesn't then send his JC as back to Boise.

    *ass

    But yeah, I'll pitch in to a group fund to get Williams a Camaro if it helps.

    Oregon wanted Williams but he did not like "the way Oregon did Darron Thomas". FWIW

    And now we know why Peterman won't start him ...

    He doesn't want to be Oregon.

    I'm all for letting Williams play but this is not a change. I bought the hype that he had the higher ceiling after I saw just how low Miley's ceiling really was.

    It's still going to be ugly. The OL sucks complete ass and the receivers are even worse. The lack of talent on this offense is fucking brutal to behold. Troy Williams may turn out to be an absolute gamer but he'll still be hamstrung by a shitty supporting cast.
