Roof Think Browning Should Start
Comments

I really doubt the coaches feel the same way. Winning now also helps builds the program. I get that we are tired of 7 and 8 win seasons, but they are better than 4 or 5 win seasons. Petersen wins 4 or 5 this year with Lindquist/KCS and there are concerns. He wins 7 with Browning and there is much more momentum and optimism surrounding Husky Football which imo would help the program more than pining for 2019.dnc said:
The goal is to build a program, not squeek into some shit bowel this season. I think the best long term option is redshirting a guy like Browning. Starting a true freshman QB is almost never beneficial in the short term, and IMO exposes kids to injury and destroys his confidence unnecessarily. How many quality QB's started as true frosh in the Pac? I can't think of many. I just think Browning is unlikely to be more than a game better than Kijana Carter or Lindy this season, but will be much better prepared for next season and beyond after a RS year.RoadDawg55 said:
Completely agree, but let's take into consideration who the presumed starter is going to be. Thinking he should redshirt no matter what, even if he's the best guy is FS. Judging from the Spring, he's probably not the best guy, but if he is during fall camp, then what?dnc said:Nothing erects a doog dick like a kid getting 15 extra practices. Spring enrollee, bowel game, etc. We haven't developed a kid over five seasons in the last 15 years but 15 practices means a true freshman is ready at QB.

And if Lindquist goes out and completely sucks (very likely), then what? Same for Carta Samuels. A lot of hypotheticals, but the QB position is pretty fluid when Jeff fucking Lindquist is the assumed starter.
Add in that he's not the NFL prototype as someone else alluded to and he's less likely to leave early anyway and I think it's a no brainer to redshirt him.
If he plays this year he better be the shit.
You are right that not many true freshman QB's are good. For a real program, Browning wouldn't sniff the field. For a program with Jeff Lindquist are the starter, I'm not so sure. -
I just don't think Browning is 2-3 wins better than the alternatives. If he's 3 wins better I agree you play him.RoadDawg55 said:

Thank you. It amazes me how few people understand this concept.whatshouldicareabout said:I'd rather have Browning play in 2019 than Browning play in 2015

If Browning is good, he should be gone before the 2019 season.whatshouldicareabout said:I'd rather have Browning play in 2019 than Browning play in 2015

A lot of the thread is dealing in hypotheticals, which we don't do, but the margins for winning and losing are often so slim which is why the best guy has to play. Marginally better can be a 2-3 win difference.dnc said:

The 15 practices was the original, Lambo-generated/Baird-coveted, doog excuse for sucking. 'Why did we piss away the Rose Bowl in '95 and '96?' 'You have no idea the amount of development we lost in the underclass kids in the last 2 years without those 15 practices. Those make a huge difference.'
Sort of like having a shit-for-brains coach also makes a huge difference: looking at you Lambo. -
It actually goes back even further than that to the ultimate doogism of all doogisms.Dennis_DeYoung said:The 15 practices was the original, Lambo-generated/Baird-coveted, doog excuse for sucking.

Yeah, the sanctions really fucking decimated us. Look at that '96 team: no talent at all.dnc said:
