The fact that Pete is outright saying the best WR were on the field has me freaking out. It's literally the only position on the team that none of the young guys ever rotate in and get a chance. Even on OL where you want it to be older guys, Kirkland showed he was the best and took over. Defensive side of the ball is only about rotating guys and getting young talent in. That's why people are frustrated today about the defense, the young guys played like young guys. But at least they played.

WR is supposed to be the easiest position to recruit and the easiest to transition from HS early and yet all the WRs suck and never get better.
 
I don’t have anything to back it up, but 4 star WR’s seem to be busts more than any other position. A lot of these guys put up big numbers in pass happy offenses in high school but actually suck. See Spiker as example #1.

Yeah I doubt there is any data to back that up. Seems like people have that take for whatever position their team inexplicably sucks at.

Also how do we know our 4* receivers are busts if they never get to play?

Pete is honest until he isn't. The way those guys were playing, no fucking way should they have been out there in the 4th. Makes you wonder WTF is going on

 
I wanna fucking sell all my season tickets after that press conference. So fucking maddening. He's so goddamn stubborn. Cede control of the offense or we're headed to an easy 7-6 season. He won't, tho.

He subs Black Beast out on 3rd downs and RZ.

He doesn't sub out any receivers.

He doesn't give his best players the ball, ie Black Beast and Salvon.

Guys play so tight cause they're so scared of getting benched and making mistakes.

Our LBs—inside and out—played terrible—most notably Wellington, who was trying NOT to tackle anyone. Horrible run fits by all four of our inside backers, including Tafisi.

Losing to Cal at home. What a fucking embarrassment.

I never would've guessed that WR of all positions would hold us back. It's so fucking easy to evaluate them, and no other team seems to struggle with plugging them in and letting them go. Except for us. We make WR look like a hard position to play.

There are tons of 4 star WR’s. It’s definitely over saturated in the rankings.

Chin was a 4 star on ESPN.

This is a very strong point. Every time I have checked it has easily been the most represented position in the 4 blue chip rankings.

I don't think this is true. RB is far easier to make an early impact in college and the NFL.

It used to be the rule that receivers took three years in the NFL before they really emerged. That isn't so consistent anymore but it's still not unusual for the transition to take awhile at either level.

I'm not saying it's the hardest position but I've never heard/seen anyone suggest it's the easiest.

I wondered on Saturday as I saw Joe Ngata return a punt and nothing else at Clemson if he would be starting here

Or would he be sitting with the rest of the kids because he's not ready

Clemson at least has a reason for him not playing. Those WR’s ahead of him are good, future early round picks. At least the two main guys.

I still doubt Ngata would do much more than rotate in for a few plays if he came to UW. Later in the season he would get more time.
