How Much Talent did Sark waste in 2013?

New Fish
QB- Price, CFL, 2nd best passer rating in Pac-12 in 2013
RB- Sankey, All American, 2nd round pick
TE- ASJ, All American, 2nd round pick
WR-Kasen, pre-injury would have been 2nd or 3rd round pick
WR- Kevin Smith- battling to make it in the NFL, has better chance this year
OL- Ben Riva- bad injuries in 2014. Had he stayed healthy may have made a run at it.

WR- String- will be an NFL player if he keeps his shit together
WR- Ross-likely NFL player

DE- Kikaha, All-American next year, 2nd round pick, could be an NFL starter
DT- Shelton, All-American next year, 1st round pick
LB- Shaq, All-American, 2nd round pick
LB- Timu-now has a good chance to make the Bears
CB-Peters-All-American next year, 1st round pick, probably starts
CB- Ducre- started a game last year, dont know current status
S-Parker- camped but didnt make it last year
LB- Feeney- maybe an NFL guy if he has a breakout year
K- Coons, has a good shot to make the Browns this year

If Timu and Coons make it this season and Kasen also, thats 10 guys from 2013. Six of them picked in the first two rounds. By the time all the young guys are gone, you could wind up with nearly 15 of them playing in the NFL at somepoint.

How the fuck did this team only win 9 games? Easily the most talented team since 1997.
 
This needs to be an HH article. Said article needs to be spread across the internets. Great thread. And it better fucking mention how Sark won 8 (not 9) with that team.

7 if you dont count Idaho St.

The other thing is the OL was completely healthy and experienced that season. It wasn't a dreckfest like the year before.

Sometimes the enemy gives the most honest and concise answer: UW quit after the Oregon game that year.

You mean like the 2008 Oregon game?
 
Good thread. That team was loaded with playmakers. It did have some weak spots too. And Price, despite the hype was an average QB in the PAC 12.

Timu making the Bears would be interesting because everyone always said he sucked.

He washed out of run plays too easily. That was incredibly frustrating to watch for the, what, 4+ years he started? He has pretty good instincts at defending the pass, but it was hard to forgive that when he dropped picks almost every time. As a matter of fact, with him and Shaq I hated UW's defense when backs managed to get 2nd level.
 
That was really a pretty stacked team.

OL was mediocre at best talent wise and it was poorly developed. Other than that rosebowl level talent and experience.
 
So Sark is a great recruiter.

That team folded against any one with a pulse just like the Huskies do. It's who we are

We?
 
Would love to see a comparison to the 2000 team.
Big difference is the QB and OL was better back then.

I'm not sure the QB was that much better. Tui was certainly a better runner. I think the difference was coaching, coaching, coaching.
