UO Grad Goes to UW Practice - report
I went to the UW practice on Saturday with some members of my coaching staff and team. The huskies are making an effort to renew ties to the local football community...
Started off by having a short conversation with Damon Huard. I shook the had that threw the Ball to Kenny Wheaton. I was smiling on the inside
Lawyer Milloy gave a speech about players staying to play in state and how dominant his team was back in 1991. Hooray for that! This isn't 1991...
Toured the weight room and locker room. VERY UNDERWHELMING. They actually had a football on a spring as you leave the locker room to punch. Hmm, wonder where they thought of that??
What struck me was how low the energy level was during practice. Lots of jogging, loafing etc. To my eye most of those players were just going through the motions.
Browning is going to be nice qb for them, he throws a very nice ball. On the other side of the ball the only 2 guys who popped were Baker and their safety jc transfer Ezekial Turner. That kid is a good one. He was all over the field laying some serious wood.
Running game is terrible, line play is terrible on both sides. I would be pretty depressed if I were a uw fan...

Classic confirmation bias.

Meh. This is just classic confirmation bias. It's telling because we want it to be telling. But these exact comments are made by players every single time there's a regime change. Sometimes they're telling, sometimes they're not. Time will tell.AZDuck said:interesting comments bolded

Either way it will be interesting. -
We all know going really fast is better than doing it right...that's the Max Power way.
-
Oregon makes a big deal out of the pace of practice to simulate game conditions. That may not be a thing with Peterman. I thought it was interesting.

Hi there. @dnc asked you to hurry up and get your 53 seconds in order. -
That is what Sark did as well, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't (and those times usually correspond to the times someone like Sark is coaching).
Hopefully it is just because they are trying to teach the players their assignment and it really isn't because they are being lazy. That would suck and UW would be in for a shitty decade again. -

You beat me to it. Sark ran a seemingly fast-pace practice, but the buck stopped there. The quality was definitely lacking. On top of that, how many times did he let the team #finish practice early?Hippopeteamus said:That is what Sark did as well, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't (and those times usually correspond to the times someone like Sark is coaching).

Saturday wasn't even a practice.
And isn't every Duck practice closed....how does this guy know if they are running or not? What a load of b.s.

Total B.S., that tool sucks at trolling because Turner didn't play on Sunday and I haven't heard anything about him before this today from Jood:
seattletimes.com/sports/uw-husky-football/uw-football-fall-camp-defense-dominates-on-day-10/
"Noteworthy:
— A lot of jawing back and forth between the offense and defense. After his touch sack of KJCS to end one drive, senior DL Jarett Finau turned toward the offense’s side and let out a prolonged, WWE-style roar. After Lindquist threw an errant pass for walk-on TE Connor Griffin, the former Gonzaga basketball walk-on, Clay yelled: “You should’ve stuck to basketball!” (Griffin, by the way, has had a nice camp working mostly with the third-string offense. UW is deep at tight end, but he could help down the road.)
— Redshirt freshman RB Jomon Dotson, redshirt freshman safety Jojo McIntosh and sophomore safety Ezekiel Turner (who had a cast on his right wrist) remained sidelined. Junior CB Kevin King was also limited.
— With Dotson out the last couple days, freshman RB Myles Gaskin has gotten more work, and he seems to be taking advantage of it. At 5-9, 192, he’s quite shifty.
— Freshman Trey Adams has moved up the depth chart and is running with the No. 2 offense at left tackle. “He’s a competitor and he’s got talent, no question about it,” Petersen said. “Just keep forcing the issue and see what he can do.” -
I think the guy went to the closed practice on Saturday, which was supposed to be a scrimmage.
-
Don't think so because the guy said the players were loafing and Jude said this about the open practice Sunday:
"Browning also threw two interceptions in Sunday’s open practice, but I put less stock in those; no, you never want to see turnovers, but that was basically a walk-through at half speed."
It also makes a lot more sense that a guy went to the open practice rather than somehow sneaking into a closed practice (closed to everyone, including Tyee).Hippopeteamus said:I think the guy went to the closed practice on Saturday, which was supposed to be a scrimmage.
-
A few things:
If you were going to one sark practice, they could or in many cases seemed like people were having a good time and it was up tempo. More than likely it had to do with the dance music, the screaming with enthusiasm for showing up, the tiger roaring, or the fact that nobody really gave a shit about discipline or being accountable for practice.
Peterman may not run the most enthusiastic practices, but I would imagine oregon fans of all people should shut their fucking mouths about how peterman coaches. From my understanding, Boise fucking state beat their asses multiple times with 2 and 3* players littering the field with his boring practices. Apparently it works somewhere. We're all hoping it works here.
From all accounts, including husky fans who aren't complete fuskytards, we all know the dumpster fire which was left behind and that the current roster isn't exactly oregon 2014. Peterman has had to retool this entire roster with guys who actually have a spine and will work hard to be great....and you know, maybebeateven compete with oregon. Considering we just now have a qb who can throw further than 7 yards, we'll call that progress.

Saturday was open to youth football players and their families. So he got in by doing that.HFNY said:Don't think so because the guy said the players were loafing and Jude said this about the open practice Sunday:

But apparently the duck was to stoopid to realize that he was at a scrimmage which is usually the slowest practice you can go to.
And yes, Sunday's practice was a walk-through. That's why there was nothing to take out of it anyways. -
Ah gotcha.
I hadn't heard anything about Zeke Turner, kinda odd he'd mention him.
He could be right about the OL by simply by virtue of so players lost from last year (including Dex Charles).CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:

I was also at practice. Here are some things I took away from it.
----------------------------------
Kurt Browning - He was the best player on the field, enough said on that. He had a few practices under his belt and he did everything possible to win the scrimmage.
Offensive Line - They average a weight of 332 lbs across the line, they were ready to dominate the line of scrimmage.Charles, Brostek, Shelton, James, McGary, Tanigawa, Ossai etc. These boys have the attitude and were ready to rumble.
Kwiatkowski - New Defensive Scheme and a new attitude. Every player spoke out about the difference between Wilcox and Kwiatkowski, I saw a much improved defense on 8/16.
Speed, Speed, Speed - This is the fastest UW team has been in a long time. Deontae Cooper, Budha Baker,John Ross, Max Richmonnd,Troy Williams, Jeff Lindquist, Virta Vea etc. The newbies were inexperienced but brought something that they haven't had in past seasons, speed.
Time of Practice - I think UW can dominate the time of practice stat. The more they can slow down practice and keep their scrimmage going, the better chance they have to win more games this season. -
Decent troll thread. Oh yeah and 'cool story, bro' to that worthless duck fan.

No doubt. People are now seeing the damage that Neu. Er uh Gil. No I mean Ty. Shit! Sark has done to this roster.FreeChavez said:A few things:

The whole story seems kind of made up without that included.

A Duck fan attended a UW practice?
That has to be the saddest shit I've read here.
Ever. -
I went to a Sark practice in 2010 and it was a sloppy and unorganized. It wasn't particularly upbeat either.FreeChavez said:A few things:

Whether the guy is trolling or not, I do put a little stock in the tempo comments after watching our offense last year. -
