D. Washington expectations?
Can anyone think of a RB who suddenly snapped out of it as an upperclassmen and produced? Is a 1,000 yd season feasible? Will our FS play calling even give him a chance?

Reminds of Louis Rankin but without the instincts. Would really like to see Cooper take advantage and take off

Rankin didn't really have very good instincts either. I can see the comparison though. I said D- Wash was a faster Rich Alexis.
I really miss Sankey and Polk. -
true....Rankin had a little bit thoughRoadDawg55 said:Rankin didn't really have very good instincts either. I can see the comparison though. I said D- Wash was a faster Rich Alexis.

Low. He is what he is.

Rankin's actually the best answer to the OP's question. Rankin had a very good senior year. Even played ever so briefly in the NFL.HuskyJW said:Reminds of Louis Rankin but without the instincts. Would really like to see Cooper take advantage and take off
D Wash's first two years were far better than Rankin's though. -
Hes unusually tall for a RB and runs with a pretty high pad level. Injuries will likely always be an issue for a player like that. He probably would have had a 1,000 yards last year had he stayed healthy.
-
Rankin had no instincts. Great back end speed but the first ten yards took 18 yards t get.
-
1000 yards isn't what it used to be. The game has changed, 100 yards per game is the minimum qualification to be labeled a good full time back.
Teams play 13-14 games a year with back averaging 5+ a carry in the spread.
He runs like a goat fuck. Give Lavon Coleman his explosiveness and you're looking at an all Pac player. -
Sounds like the coaches are high on Jomon Dotson.
-
I expect him to break one run a game and proceed to sprint into the back of the offensive line another 15 times every game. Also expect the well documented fumbling problems to continue. I think he also has the worst hands of any rb I an remember over the last 15 years. Woof.

What do those numbers even mean? I mean, what problem are we even trying to solve here?Doogles said:1000 yards isn't what it used to be. The game has changed, 100 yards per game is the minimum qualification to be labeled a good full time back.

I'm a stats geek and that's part of the problem I have with the current game. Meaningless stats.Meek said:

Imagine the murder Napoleon Kaufman would have committed in Oregon's modern spread. He'd rush for 2500+ considering the new surfaces wouldn't have given him turf toe.

That's also part of my frustration with the program. We seem to halfass old school philosophy while half assing new school schemes.
We are a hybrid of shit without an identity. -

I think we already know, but if Smith doesnt change his faggoty spread offense to meet his personnel strengths/weaknesses Then we will REALLY know. If this offense has any chance of success it needs to at least be a 60/40 run pass split. Designed QB runs, plenty of two TE sets, multiple deep shots per game. No bubble gum screens, maybe even line up under center a handful of times..

There are and have been PLENTY of 6-1-6-2 tailbacks in college and the NFL. You are unusually dumb.BallSacked said:Hes unusually tall for a RB and runs with a pretty high pad level.

If Smith and Petersen don't change the faggoty spread offense to meet personnel strengths/weaknesses then the front page headlines of Hardcore Husky this fall will be going nuclear.Penace said:I think we already know, but if Smith doesnt change his faggoty spread offense to meet his personnel strengths/weaknesses Then we will REALLY know.

I wish someone in the media would just ask JSmithFS what our offensive identity is.
Still can't believe we took a mediocre MWC QB coach and made him a PAC12 OC. Unbelievable.
The season is over. -
Line Lindy up under center with no threat of the pass? 60% runs with Lindy, new O-line and no threat of run or pass? No spread-shotgun with Lindy at qb and no threat of run or pass?
. The spread is the only offense that will allow Lindy time to throw it at the feet of his WR's. It's used to overcome shortcomings elsewhere. Yeah, Johnny Smith's playcalling was the problem. Lining up in the I-formation is hardly a good idea with new starters at every position. Retarded, simply idiotic post. -

You're right, the best way to help out a shitty QB and new OL is to line up with 5 WRs and throw horizontally to midgets with stone hands.puppylove_sugarsteel said:Line Lindy up under center with no threat of the pass? 60% runs with Lindy, new O-line and no threat of run or pass?

Our new/young/Ossai OL will love pass blocking those rushers every play
how often did you roll around with Sark when he was up here? Why do you love his play book?

My expectations for Dwayne really aren't that much; just something like 2200 yards rushing with 28 TD's.
-
Dwayne Washington gets an A for athleticism and a C- for technique/skills.
Like in middle school football, you can play your biggest strongest kid at tailback and roll over the crappy disorganized teams but against a well-coached team, it won't work. Washington dominates the crap teams we play but can't do shit against the decent ones.
On the other hand you have Coleman who actually looks and plays like a RB but is slow as molasses with the ball.
Honestly I'm less excited about the RB position than I am about qb.
As for Smith, he needs to put something together that utilizes TEs, down field blocking, and short passes (not backwards screens across the field) in a major way if he's going to be successful with Lindquist. -
WTF? Lindy and his chargees are going to line up under center and pound the ball, throw via play action? With our all pac12 TE's 'lined up in 2-TE sets? ? Your post is heavily fuckered dude.Houhusky said:

Give Washington Sankey's brain and he's the best RB in the conference at a minimum.
