UW fans are funny right now. I can't wait to beat them by over 21 points this year.

If locker gets 6 wins this season, he'd be 14-26.duck55 wrote:"He has won 8 games in over 3 years as a starter (granted he did miss half a season in 2008). That's horrible. Coming out of high school he was supposed to be the savior of the Washington program, and clearly he has NOT lived up to that role. Whether you want to play poor coaching, or just a bad surrounding team, the fact is he hasn't lived up to the hype whatsoever.
I'm not talking about what Locker's NFL potential is... I'm talking about how his college career has gone so far, and in my eyes, he has been a big time bust for the Huskies. This is his last year at redemption."
Dan Fouts was only 15-17 as a starter for some really bad Duck teams but he set 19 school records in the process. At the time, he was not considered a bust, rather picked pretty high in the draft on his way to the NFL hall of fame. I could see locker getting 6-7 wins to add to his 8, get drafted pretty high and doing well in the NFL where he will have an O-line in front of him.
I'm not doubting Locker's NFL potential, but he clearly has been a bust so far in college.

Re: Top prospects in Town
I think Locker will be a much better pro player than he has been in college. At UW, he has had just about nothing around him to work with. In the NFL, he will have much better talent on his team.
