It's harder than Oregon but it's not that hard. If he was smart enough to be seriously recruited by Northwestern then he could have walked into UW on his own.Baphomet said:UW is hard to get in to. My neighbors are Huskies, but their kid couldn't get accepted so is now attending Oregon.
Hugh's kid just wasn't good enough for UW this recruiting cycle. So it goes. -
Seems like you give a fuck.haie said:Who gives a fuck. Hope Hugh tattoos puddles on his ass cheek.
Hope Softy converts cuz he’s just a jack doog anyways.
Hope Dick goes back to rooting for wazzu like he should.
Fuck all of them -
How mentally ill is creepycoug lol

Is that a question? Or are you still changing from yesterday?BaldwinIV said:How mentally ill is creepycoug lol
The dooging in this thread is unreal, and denying it is a much more clear sign of mental illness. I'm quite clear in my thinking since I'm probably the only one in this thread who REALLY DNGAF. -
Millen's measurables are fantastic and he's only going to get better.
6-4, 4.86, 37 inch vert, 4.3 shuttle: Jesus. Looks amazing. We fucked up. Oh well. -
Millen is good, but if he turns out better than Morris I don't think it will have much to do with his athleticism. Never have I looked at Browning play and thought "if only he could jump higher".Dennis_DeYoung said:Millen's measurables are fantastic and he's only going to get better.

I think the issue is more about his ability to extend plays, not go down easily when hit (flexibility and quickness/explosion) and pick up first downs with his feet.NorwegianHusky said:

I think these things matter a lot. When a kid has great film: then the numbers matter IMO because they tell you what he can eventually be. -
I think it matters too, but scrambling is a combination of functional mobility and instincts. Millen is way more explosive, but I don't think he's significantly faster than Morris. He's a better runner, but I don't think he's significantly better at extending plays. As long as you're a functional scrambler, I don't care that much about testing numbers. Millen is an impressive athlete, and he's taller, but I think they're pretty similar both in terms of their throwing ability and their ability to extend plays.Dennis_DeYoung said:

In the end I think they both a decent arms, good ball placement, and decent mechanics. While I will give Millen a small + for size and athleticism, Morris also has decent functional mobility. There's so little difference between them I can't really agree that we fucked up. They're both good. I think we should have offered both and see how that would've played out, but I don't see how we massively fucked up here.
I will say that if Millen has any kind of success at all in college he'll be a high draft pick based on his athleticism alone, and that would have been good for UWs brand even if he turns out to be Bortles 2.0. I can't say with any confidence who of them will have the most college success though. I'm a little uncomfortable not having a hot take, but I just think they're both good. -
Hugh was the classic measurable QB which is why he played in the NFL as long as he did despite sucking so bad as a QB
Other than the Orange Bowl -

Morris is fine, but he's a 3* QB. Millen is a late-bloomer and Morris is a not-bloomer.
By the way - your logic is bad about the athleticism - as kids develop, being able to get the instincts to action is about athleticism. Instincts develop over time and as Millen's improve his body will help him carry them out quickly and with explosion. Morris? Not so much.
I don't hate Morris - I just see Jake Heaps. -
Petersen already planting seeds for the 2028 QB class when Morris takes over running the Russell Wilson Passing Academy. Meanwhile Millen will be doing Duck radio in Portland. Chess vs Checkers.Dennis_DeYoung said:NorwegianHusky said:

I could care less about the intricacies of salmonella

Cristobal is merciless. He must be confident the older brother will be starting after Herbert leaves. Can't have two Millens sitting on the bench.
-
Cristobal probably didn't know that Clay Millen existed until he sent that tweet out.elord821 said:Cristobal is merciless. He must be confident the older brother will be starting after Herbert leaves. Can't have two Millens sitting on the bench.
-
I have no idea if any Millen is any good but if Oregon thinks recruiting Husky legacies just to fuck with us is worth anything then start the coach search for Cristobal's replacement
-
Been thinking a lot about Kale Millen and all I gotta say is
-
It's a ploy to get his little brother who is going to be a great one.

One of the minor storylines that surrounded Millen's commitment is the fact that his father, Hugh Millen, was a starting quarterback for Oregon's rival, the Washington Huskies. Kale Millen told Greg Biggins that he didn't have any distaste for the Ducks growing up.
“Actually, a lot of people think that but for a long time, the Huskies weren’t as good as the Ducks, so it wasn’t really a rivalry. The Ducks were just smashing them. So as a little kid, I’m like ‘My team sucks’ so I was always a Pac-12 guy. I liked USC, Stanford, Oregon. I’ve always had a dream to play in the Pac-12. Oregon fits me and I’m really excited. Mario Cristobal is awesome, Coach Arroyo is awesome and I can’t wait to play for Oregon.”

This is just a diplomatic statement. Notice he lists Oregon last of the Pac12 schools he liked.
He still wants to come here. -
I stand with Pete

12 years of as kickings is a long time to be fair
Compared to the last two when these recruits were already in high school
When I was a kid growing up UW sucked for the most part and I was a USC fan every Jan 1 and like Oklahoma and some other national teams. -

I don’t necessarily expect Morris to play at UW ... but I’m more than happy to have Morris over Millen
