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

Actually a comment by Hugh that I agree with.
He said (something to the effect of) his opinion of Price will change when Keith "puts the team on his back and wins a game." In other words, what game has Price played in where fans largely walked away saying, "we would not have won that game had it not been for Keith."
I actually agree with that statement. He's thrown for lots of yards and touchdowns, but unlike Tuiasosopo, Locker, or even Pickett, I can't think of a game where Price actually carried the team to victory.

Idaho State?

2011 vs Cal, but this is actually a somewhat valid point. It wasn't because of his great play, but the winning drive against Stanford was clutch. Price hasn't led any great comebacks or had many clutch 4th quarter drives.

That's Hughmillenfs.
Let's see. UW won seven games last year. How many would they have won with Derrick fucking Brown or a true frosh playing QB? Two?
UW certainly loses to Boise on 8/31 w/o KP. -
Not that Hugh Millen is a racist or anything like that, but here's the lofty standard he held Locker too prior to the 2010 season:Passion said:Actually a comment by Hugh that I agree with.

What if Locker leaves Washington without any success? Former Washington quarterback Hugh Millen, who led the Huskies to an Orange Bowl triumph in 1985, says Locker shouldn't be viewed as a failure.
"I don't judge his first three years as a starter harshly," Millen said. "I'm just grateful that he was here at all. He's been able to keep a certain buzz about the program during times when it would be devoid of a buzz."

Also, here's Hugh Millen blaming a black coach for stunting Jake's growth:

As for the games that Price has carried UW to a win on his back, check these out:

The lesson as always: Hugh Millen is either the biggest dumbass on Seattle radio or (and? abundance?) he hates black quarterbacks. -
The whole "leading the team to a late comeback victory" argument is fucktarded anyway. A QB often has to lead his team to a comeback in the fourth quarter to make up for the shit play he put up in the first three quarters.

We're lucky Jack Lockner even played here at all

I still would have benched Lockner during the 2010 three game losing streak, if not in the Nebraska game.RaceBannon said:We're lucky Jack Lockner even played here at all
