How you like them apples

This thread delivers.

But come on, anyone who thinks Haener was a better quarterback option than Eason at the time is playing a game of revisionist history.

And Eason was really really good that year.[/b] The coaching sucked.

Eason was above average with a dog shit skill core around him

Snark aside I think above average is probably about right. I would maybe say average to above average. Eason didn't elevate that team but he wasn't the biggest problem with it either.

In the end, @MikeDamone (RIP) was right.

The bizarro world loss to Cal put a damper on the start to the season but Skinny started out hot and the BYU and USC games were his best

Then losing three of four to Stanford, Oregon, and Utah pissed everyone off. But Browning could do that too under Petersen. Those games weren't lost by the QB. Skinny did like to try to force it in there but the pass offense was retarded. Penix had some big picks too but UW won the games except UCLA and ASU where Penix had big pick 6s

Closed strong and stayed for the only bowl win since Gil Dobie then went to the draft.

The Eason hate over some quitter is what I take issue with and will happily drop the gloves for anytime

Yeah, people forget that Eason completely disappeared in some of our more baffling losses from that year. He wasn't even close to being the culprit of our mediocrity, but any flavor of "good" is probably a reach.

Team Haener was convinced that DeBoer would bring him with him. DeBoer chose a gimpy lad from Indiana and the rest is history

Two Husky head coaches passed on Haener. But sure its's a wide reaching vast conspiracy where control freak Pete was forced by unseen and indescribable forces to start Eason

Every QB gets excuses for shitty Petersen coaching except Eason who did well before the shitty offense froze up as usual

PUBLICITY hast been issu'd GRATIS!

The only thing people seem to forget about that year was that the playcalling sucked balls, coaches completely abandoned the running game almost weekly and the OL underachieved like a bunch of pussies.

Yeah Eason had crap moments but there was no game he single-handedly lost. That take is complete bullshit.

At the time, I thought it was dumb that he left for the NFL because it seemed like one more year would do him well. But in hindsight, it makes total sense based on everything else going south around him.

Could you imagine Eason running JonDons offense? Yikes

He had an ELITE tailback

Salvon was good, he's stuck in the league. So there's that.

Salvon is a one trick pony that is really good at his one trick.

Lol. Salvon is holding a roster spot. These humble stats are not surprising. Where he gets a minimal number of carries and pops one to boost his average, but then when there's a decent sample size you see who he really is: a guy who runs into his blockers and goes down the minute someone touches him.

Dwayne Washington and his eternal nfl roster spot had a large belly laugh at this one.

Who cares about that? What does his personal wealth have to do with anything?

Technically, yes, he's "stuck in the league", and least for now. And even this is more than I expected. But he's barely a ham & eggs player.
