    My biggest fear with Eason is he is Josh Rosen 2.0

    After someone posted about how much success Eason had in the rough, tough SEC East (the little brother living off big brother’s reputation) in 2016 I thought I’d see if my impression that he was just ok bore out through SEC competition.

    Meh.

    Played 8 SEC games. Went 4-4. The 4 SEC wins came against teams with a combined 25-26 record.

    50% completion rate. 136/271

    Threw 34 times per game. Had 9 TDs in 8 games.

    Number like that for a UW QB would get him killed here.

    The Atlanta Journal-Constitution said the best memory UGA fans have of Eason is how well he handled being benched. Ouch.

    I’m not saying Eason can’t be a great college QB. He wasn’t terrible as a freshman. I’m saying he’s done little to earn the level of optimism fans have. Maybe he wins the spot next year, and maybe he performs great and heads to the NFL. But if he does it will represent a massive improvement, which would be kind of amazing after two years of not playing.

    I know you're being sarcastic but all this is true.

    He's got chincredible arm talent. That didn't translate to on field performance as a true frosh. The hope clearly is that he's developed significantly last year and this preparing for next.

    His upside is sky high. I'm not at all convinced he's winning the job though.

    A Google search turns up only this thread.

    Was it a Tequilla PM to you?

    A Jake Browning post on Facebook?

    An internal UWAD email?

    Bait from you to snare some doogs on this bored?

    I'm all for tempering the Eason hype until he actually does something, but I don't think him coming out and having a breakout RS junior season will be at all "amazing" or really even that surprising. It'll just be him living up to his potential.

    Why would that be a bad thing? We would be incredible if we had a QB like Rosen.

    So he will be an even better accountant than Rosen?
