There is legitimate reason to be excited about the Husky defense

Ive heard that next year will be a bumper crop for lineman on both sides of the ball, so ignoring them for the last 5 years isnt that big of a deal.

I keep hearing that from doogs too and I'm like gee where have I heard that one before?Mooser42 said:Ive heard that next year will be a bumper crop for lineman on both sides of the ball, so ignoring them for the last 5 years isnt that big of a deal.

The strategy for building a football team is simple. The keys are these:
1- Develop a fantastic offensive line.
The other number #1 - Develop a fantastic defensive line.
2- Get a good QB and develop him.
The rest is mostly icing on the cake, really. Toss in a decent tailback, a killer backer and a headhunter DB and you're Top 10 or close to it.
Simple formula, but tricky to execute. Our problem is Cream Puff is clueless about the formula. How can that be when he worked Carol? -
There hasn't been any pass rush at all since the advent of recruiting mostly guys with unpronounceable names. What we've needed for years is more recruiting from where the bullets are flying in LA and Chicago.

QB is the most important single position on the field. For position groups it goes OL as number 1, and DL a close second. Everything else is a distant third.
I am a fucking idiot and I know this. How the fuck does a guy getting paid over 2 million per to do this for living still need to figure it out? -
Yep. Everyone of us half wits have high school level football smarts. As you say, how can the Dud, aka Cream Puff not know this?
His fixation with wideouts is laughable. First of all, a team constructed as below doesn't need to field more that one than can catch the ball plus a couple of guys for depth. Bigger issue, he doesn't even recruit well at WR. We have a bakers dozen of these guys and one, maybe two or any good. That's as much about development as talent.
Kasen may not be fast, but this inability to create separation is a total failure in coaching. There have been plenty of good to great wideouts that weren't fast. They had good hands, ran perfect routes, created separation and were tough. Outside of the hands, the rest is practice and coaching.
The 1984 team would have one the championship in a BCS world. They didn't have anybody with Kasen's talent. The guys from 84 were coached to play to their absolute maximum potential and were better on the field at crunch time.

Exactly. Michael Irvin wasn't fast, but who wouldn't want that guy on their team? Legit HOF guy who ran great routes, pushed off without getting flagged like it was his job, mastered the sideline, and caught everything thrown his way, made huge play after huge play and did it all while trash talking eveyone and playing with TONS of swagger...all while banging out hookers and smoking enough weed to make Cheech blush.Steve_Bowman said:Yep.

Well, Kasen has the weed smoking down...maybe with some coaching he could do the other shit... -
Nor was Steve Largent fast. He worked around it pretty well if Hall of Fame means anything.
Michael Irvin was good at blow but it didn't stop his thug personality from showing up on the field. Just make Kasen run plenty of gassers when he spaces out and he'll find the path to true enlightenment. Oh, but that would take some balls and toughness from the coaching staff. -
It is astounding that a true freshman may waltz into a starting position on the DL.He_Needs_More_Time said:
What does it say about our program in year five that we have a guy who was playing TE the last 3 years now starting on our DL along with a true frosh starting on our DL. Then another guy who hasn't played a snap in two years also starting on our DL.
I remember when doogman posters were making fun of this kid because he predicted he would start. I goes JoJo knew the roster (shocker) better than the doogman crew. -
I'm sure Mathis will be a good one (unless Sark fucks up his development as per usual), but it is a HUGE indictment of our program to have almost ANY freshman show up and get significant time on either line in year 5.chrisvashon said:
