Makes sense...but as we all know things could change up until LOI Day.

I saw a story on the news where Hundley said one of the reasons he dropped oregon because he didn't feel like we would prepare him for the pros. I don;t really agree with that but whatever

UCLA Qb's in the pros ????

UW Qb's in the pros?????

Why use logic though. I mean spread QB's dont get drafted

signed, Sam Bradford, Colt Mcoy, Tim Tebow.

Whatever...Interesting how he loses interest in Oregon AFTER the Hawaii camp he attended with Randall. Probably saw how good he was and didn't want the competition. Sissy.

The "will not prepare me for the pros" comment is clearly a selling point other programs are using against us...but as we all know, its flawed logic, whats funny is why do these kids listen when it is clearly incorrect.

^ I agree with you I think he saw Randall and didn't want to compete with him and the others we have...his loss we will now kick his ass on the field!

Of course all my comments are subject to change over the course of the year... because we know some of these kids will change their minds over and over again.

GO DUCKS!!

The only Huskies QBs to be picked recently (I use that term loosely) were the Huard brothers (serviceable backups at best), Tuiasosopo (see Huard brothers), Cody Pickett (current backup in the CFL after bouncing around NFL teams in the mid 2000s), and Isaiah Stanback (played mostly WR). The most recent moderately successful QBs at the next level from UW were Mark Brunell and Warren Moon, both of which played in the Don James era.

UCLA is even more abysmal: McNown (backup for a couple years), Paus (didn't get there), McCann (didn't get there), McEwan (didn't get there), D. Olson (backup), Matt Moore (backup but had far more success at OSU than UCLA), B. Olson (free agent), and Cowan (released by Saints). At least they have Aikman going for them on the all time list I guess......

But then again logic is overrated I guess.....

Guys you have to understand that this is one of the most common quotes from QB's on why they don't choose a particular school. I've heard it at least 4 times in the past 2 years from kids who probably won't go pro anyway. Just mark it down on the list of "safe stuff I can say regarding why I didn't choose School X".

The bottom line: Randall, Manziel, Mariota = a great QB haul for Oregon.

Didn't I say this already... just giving you a bad time!

I agree with the QB haul!

Sounds like Slick Rick and Sark have him snowed. Oh well...

Its real simple, he spent a week with Randal in Hawaii and he decided it would be in his best interest to go elsewhere.

Exactly ! According to a few sources he had Oregon as his # 1 school before the camp.

It seems pretty clear to me that competition is what scared him away. Not that I blame him since we already have 3 QB commits for this class, and one in Bennett the year before him, however, if he's scared of some competition then let him go.

I"m not sure he is scared of competition, I mean just look at our depth chart. My guess is that he goes to UW. I don't believe they have much after Locker.

Exactly, why go to a place where he'd have to compete against 4 other QBs when he could go to Washington and be one of the top choices to start.
