I’m thinking Morris wins the job unless we bring in a grad transfer
If Morris wins the job then we might as well resign ourselves to being also-rans and never having a prayer against elite teams. But at least we would beat up on the coug!
We have no idea whether Morris is or isn’t good … saying he is or isn’t is a dart throw
Sirmon has all the arm talent in the world … if he can improve his decision making and limit turnovers he will likely win the job
From what I’ve seen of Morris, he has some moxy to him … I’m interested to see how that looks in the Spring. Assuming the D comes back largely in tack then the most important attribute of the QB is to not make mistakes.
I wouldn’t rule out Garbers either although I want to see his arm strength … most reports are that he’s the real deal.
Wilner suggested today that Costello will be heading to UW … that also makes a ton of sense.

Chest,
What the takeaway from this year is that if you want to compete at a high level you can’t have holes on your roster.
The ILB hole was fatal …
The WRs were questionable all year largely because of the rotation
For as much arm talent that Eason has, he can be maddeningly inconsistent. Without elaborating, there are some things I heard that really made a lot of things make a ton of sense. I hope he has all the success he wants at the NFL level … but don’t be shocked if his NFL career looks a lot like Locker’s.

Eason is like a boxer with a great left hook. His arm strength is so good the other fundamentals didn’t require so much attention. Guys like Eason would be unstoppable if they mastered the other skills much like the boxer with a great left hook is unbeatable if he has the jab, footwork, timing and defense to match.

Whatever happens the QB is a placeholder for Huard.
Depends how the QB plays in 2020 and looks in springs of 2021. That is a long ways to go before crowning Huard for 2021.

I’m so tired of hearing how this team couldn’t compete because of holes on the roster. They had a double digit lead on Cal, Oregon and Utah and pissed it away. They flat out quit and didn’t show up vs Stanford(4-8) and Colorado(5-7). Even despite the glaring weaknesses this team at worst should have been 10-2.
Even our amazing 2016 playoff team was starting Brosteck on OL and then true freshman Nick Harris(who you called a lump of poo emoji), we were starting Psalm Wooching all year and Conor O’Brien.
The difference? In 2016 we had a ton of upper tier/upper class talent to make up for the holes. John Ross/Myles Gaskin/Mcgary/Adams/Pettis hid some of our warts on offense, Jones/King/Baker/Victor/Gaines/Qualls hid the holes on defense.
This year we had as many holes as we’ve always had but I don’t think our top tier talent was there. For this team to be successful we needed Keith Taylor/Eason/Ahmed/Wellington to take a big jump. Taylor/Eason/Ahmed were fine but not great. Wellington was terrible.
The only game changer this year on defense was Molden. It wasn’t just that Manu/Wellington sucked it was that we had nobody else have a first team all conference caliber season besides Molden on defense. On offense only Hunter Bryant was a game changer. Harris was good too and Adams made it based on name.

Locker was the victim of a Jeff Fisher built team that had 0 talent around him by the time he took the starting job in 2012. Eason is going to probably get picked between 20-32 (I’m sure a team will trade up for him after the Combine) and in the right situation, (New Orleans, Indy, New England) and good coaching, he’ll be a great NFL QB.

When will people learn that 1) No one can reliably predict QB success and 2) That we have exactly 0 data points on Sirmon or Morris as a P5 QB.
Instead of the usual hyperbole and myopia… Can we just LIPO?
I can’t decide if shitting on fun conversations is more reminiscent of DM or HH?
Now a days hard to tell.
