Lockie or Adams
Sounds like Lockie had a great spring- Adams much more talented-
Who does Helfrich go with Sept 5th?

Re: Lockie or Adams
I think Helfrich/Frost are stubborn enough to go with Lockie, but I believe that Adams eventually takes the starting job.

Re: Lockie or Adams
I'd be a little more concerned if we graduated all our weapons. But we have so many
weapons whoever is QB just has to get them the ball and let them run. I am more
concerned at corner then qb. Teams are gonna try and exploit that.

Re: Lockie or Adams
Lockie can't throw it more than 20 yds with any kind of velocity, if he's the starter our WR won't be doing much other than blocking.

Re: Lockie or Adams
Vs Oregon St in 2013:
Vs Washington last year:Adams did everything Saturday, passing for 411 yards and running for 107 and the go-ahead score with 18 seconds left as the Eagles upset No. 25 Oregon State 49-46 to become the third FCS team to beat a ranked FBS team.
"Watching it live, it was really impressive," Eastern Washington coach Beau Baldwin said. "He wasn't afraid of the situation."
The junior from Pasadena, Calif., played with panache, throwing for four touchdowns and running for two, completing 23 of 30 passes despite leaving the game twice -- once with cramping and a second time after taking a hard hit near the sideline.
He has the "it" factor. Kid can just flat out play football. I just don't see Lockie beating him out for the job.SEATTLE -- Cyler Miles ran for three touchdowns rushing and threw for another in his season debut at quarterback, and Washington withstood seven touchdown passes from Eastern Washington quarterback Vernon Adams Jr., in a wild 59-52 win on Saturday.
Adams set records for most touchdown passes in school history and a new career high in yards passing. The seven TD passes were the most ever allowed by Washington. And if his day wasn't full enough, Adams attempted the onside kick after throwing his seventh TD but the loose ball was recovered by Washington.

Re: Lockie or Adams
Will he be able to learn the playbook in such a short amount of time though? I wouldn't be surprised if we start Lockie to open the season because that may be a better option than just handing Adams the keys in the first game against his former team. Who knows where his head will be on that day....QuackininBama wrote:Vs Oregon St in 2013:Vs Washington last year:Adams did everything Saturday, passing for 411 yards and running for 107 and the go-ahead score with 18 seconds left as the Eagles upset No. 25 Oregon State 49-46 to become the third FCS team to beat a ranked FBS team.

Re: Lockie or Adams
Prediction: I think Lockie will start vs EWU primarily because Adams may not be fully ready. If everything goes according to Hoyle we should be well enough ahead in the 3rd qtr to get VA plenty of snaps. The big question is going to be the following week @MSU.

Re: Lockie or Adams
Well its my understanding he's had the playbook for quite a while now so at least the verbiage will be familiar. Now obviously its a far different thing to run those plays during scrimmage or a game, and he will have to get on the same page as our receivers but I do actually see him starting from day one. I look at it like an NFL player the year before he becomes a FA or his contract is up. They always play at their best and his goal is to get himself in the spotlight for the NFL draft. He's going to bust his ass to be ready for week one and he has all the tools to do it. I think its a no-brainer.

Re: Lockie or Adams
If Lockie's arm isn't a noodle he's my preference. We don't need a superstar back there with how loaded we are on offense. We just need a guy who can lead, stay calm, and get the ball to the playmakers.

Adams was really nice after the Spring Game. He stood around signing autographs for a long time and was really nice to my kids.

Adams is a vet, he'll learn the playobook quickly, I'm sure of that. I bet he starts, too much talent not to. No offense to Lockie, he just isn't as gifted as Adams.

Re: Lockie or Adams
Ya gotta go with VA, but Lockie definitely looked comfortable during the spring game. I think he could run our offense if needed.

Re: Lockie or Adams
Wouldn't it make more sense to play him against EWU, a game we should win handily, so he can get some actual in game reps prior to the MSU game? Benching him week 1 and throwing him into the fray week 2 sounds like a recipe for disaster.duck81 wrote:Prediction: I think Lockie will start vs EWU primarily because Adams may not be fully ready.

If Lockie starts one of two things happened. 1- Adams just isn't that good, or 2-Adams is hurt. No way did the coaches call every potential transfer because they think Lockie is the man they want starting.

Re: Lockie or Adams
i know we have a lot of weapons but a week 2 night game at Michigan State is my concern.
