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

    Ross is never going to tackle well. Make him a wr and situational db maybe.

    If i had my choice. Bring in browning and KJ to fight with miles. I don't think miles has what it takes to win the job by any stretch, but he deserves the shot. I think you ask lindy what position he wants to play on the field so he can play. He can still be an emergency QB, but at this point, I think him being a FB or even option at RB, slot or pass catching 2nd TE could be worthwhile. Him holding a clipboard makes no sense.

    If miles doesn't win the job you ask him if he wants to be the back up or try and find another position as well. If he doesn't win the job outright he's either leaving the first chance he gets, or he's gonna want to find a spot b/c they will not go back to him unless KJ and browning get hurt.

    Troy, wish he would have had a real shot in a game without typhoon conditions, but I do respect the writing has been on the wall at UW if they didn't give him a shot over the miles weiner arm. So best move on to another program and get a fresh start

    Not a bad plan to start Miles week one. If he does well, he keeps the job. He does shitty and a youngster takes over week two for the rest of the shitty non conference. It eases them in and helps them get some confidence.

    If you don't know that Miles is your QB by the time of the Boise game, then he's not your QB.

    Nothing will help to undermine the team as quickly as fucking around with the QB position and not establishing leadership there.

    We had zero leadership at the position this year. Who knows if Magna Carta or Browning will be able to step in and show the leadership that allows the players to believe in them. But you saw the results this year of what happens when nobody believes. Get down 2 scores and everybody quits because they know that there's no way that they'd come back in the game.

    So the 12 games that Miles has stunk up the joint in are worthy of more. But Black Powers one start is enough

    I appreciate the statement and the point ... But there isn't enough quality reps for 5 QBs much less 4 ... Narrow it down to the 3 with the best chance and roll with it.

    Troy will be the next N. Montana at some Tulane-type school.

    I told you fuckers last night Miles is starting at Boise.


    five reasons

    IIRC, you were in the group that thought it was ridiculous to think UW would start a true freshman QB. Not so stupid anymore.
    I would start a true freshman in game one if he was the best guy on the roster.

    I'm predicting what Peterman will do, not saying what I would do.

    That's what I love about Carroll.

    Best player plays, regardless of age or time with team.

    Seems Peterman and Willingham put qualifiers above talent.

    I'm just going off what I read on boreds, not saying Peterman is like Willingham, don't be a twister.

    If Black Power hops a bus for Alcorn State, better hope the driver runs over Miley. If Miley survives and Coach Peterbust hands him the football it is time to serve up Jonestown Jello in the Zone
