THE PAC12 THREAD v.4

[RegentDenali]

Actually he was the first true freshman starter in team history.

Even better......

Well reports out of the Rising stars camp at Husky stadium was a tale of two PAC CBs.

2016 Husky recruit CB Byron Murphy made play after play. Maybe see him out there this year already on some downs for the Huskies.

But who was also impressive was 2017 Oregon commit CB Demmodore Lenoir who made a ton of plays as well. Currently the highest rated recruit in their class.
Huskies saw everything they needed to see to make a final decision. He walked away with an offer from the Huskies. Ducks might want to lock him in a closet till February. We're probably not the only ones who will offer till LOI.

We are probably around 3 weeks away from the opening of fall camps. I'm not going to be too concerned with long term recruiting for 2017.

 

[socaljim242]

Every school has their camps and usually the hosting schools recruits are the stars of the camp. something I've noticed. What they never publicize is whose recruit are the star players burning.

Looks like the contract extension Shaw signed in 2012 is paying off. 2014 numbers show a base of 2.65 million (a million less than Petersen). However, bonuses and deferred comp raised his 2014 total to 4.1million. I think he may be worth it.
Stanford nearly doubles David Shaw's compensation

FYI Pac 12 network is prety much marathoning Games in 60 min from last season. you know if you need a fix

Right now (10 Oclock hour west coast) ASU at UCLA, 11 WSU at Oregon, 12 ASU at Utah, 1 Utah at USC, 2 Oregon at ASU, 3 Arizona @ USC, 4 Oregon at Stanford, 5 UCLA at Utah, 6 ND at Stanford.

He's utterly worth it. He kept the blueprint Harbaugh installed to get them competitive in the PAC again, and took it to the next level. Importantly, his been able to maintain it at a school with Ivy League academics.
Their performance in the Rose bowl last year was utter domination. If Peteren wasn't coaching the Huskies, Shaw would be my next choice of who I would want.

Put in 40 miles on my bike today along Lake Washington. Trail runs right by UW so bombed around the athletic facilities and campus. Was able to watch some of the football camp activities going on this weekend. 75 degrees and blue skies. It was perfection today and this got my football blood pumping. Go Dawgs!!!

Nice shot of the indoor practice facility as well.

I guess Oregon got a commit yesterday. 3 * Ath/CB Demetrius Douglas from Portland
offers from Minnesota Oregon State and a few MWC teams.
pushing Oregon to 28 on Scout, 31 rivals and 30th 247 for class ranking.

What do you know, that's actually the same story for UCLA and Josh Rosen. Josh too was the first true freshman starter in team history.

Ironic as long as these to Schools have been around, that it happened in the same year.

Combined, that's over 200 season in total!

Mike Leach disapproves. That is way to big to lock and athlete in.

Im pretty sure Matt Barkley a few years back was the first true freshman to start for USC. And his first game was against top 3 Ohio State on the road. Some body inform Oregon it can be done .lol

Mariota did it as a redshirt. ONeil did it too. not sure if Oregon has had a true

 

[WizardHawk]

UW only did so out of necessity. Lindquist and Carta-Samuels were nowhere near ready for this level of play. Browning was going to take some lumps, but wasn't going to be worst than those two out of the gate and had a hell of a lot of upside.

I wish we could have RS him and had another year to train him up.

Watch what you wish for, if he really is good, he may be gone to the NFL after two years as your starter when red-shirting his first year.

If in fact he really is that good, you get three good years at Washington when starting him as a true Freshman, where his starting year is his break in year.

The other way around, you get one year as he figures it out and his next year is his last, as three years removed from HS is the qualifier for entering the NFL draft.

After seeing him last year, I think starting him was the best bet for Husky fans.

Stay tuned.

I guess I was more going for the angle of not having to start a true freshman at QB because we had better options. Sure, it's going to be rare for schools to have 4 year starting QB's threatening their records anymore. The ones capable of reaching those will all leave early. That's today's game.

Let's be honest, it is usually a desperate and or depleted team that starts a true frosh at the helm. Most if not all head coaches would rather redshirt their first year to let them learn the play book and put on some muscle.

Meh, USC did that with Matt Barkley like 6 years ago. As usual, Trojans leading the way.
