That may say something about his resolve in coaching direction and maybe also his integrity. For me, the jury is still out on his coaching ability, but this might be taken as a good sign that it isn't all about recruiting.

Re: Puka Nacua likely announcing his decision today
Can you really blame the kid? Other than my disdain for the Huskies and their fans, it seems like it is a smarter move. What are we offering that is better for a WR than what he could get at UW? Other than a year with Herbert, we don't bring a lot to the table. No coach, no identity on offense, no history of putting WRs in the league, and no signs of developing WRs while they are here. I don't blame the kid at all. That being said, I hope he loses every game at the college level.

Dillon Mitchell is going from this year as far as pros. Peterson really only developed Pettis.karlhungis wrote:Can you really blame the kid?

No coach and bad oc doesn't help though, Ill agree with that. UW also has a pretty equal playing time chance with us, if not better.

Re: Puka Nacua likely announcing his decision today
Weren't Ross and Mickens out of the Peterson system? The only Duck WR in the league now is DAT who wasn't exactly a WR here. And really, I'm just saying we don't have a "history" of getting WR's into the NFL. As in, it isn't something we are particularly good at.GrantDuck wrote:Dillon Mitchell is going from this year as far as pros.
