Think the NCAA would consider an exemption to play immediately at WSU considering the circumstances?
Saw nothing and I mean nothing in his playing time at Georgia that would indicate that he would be a lock to beat out Cooper head to head.
And beat a quality opponent in Penn State in his first bowl game as a true freshman. Yeah, pretty pedestrian.Other than the fact he started at a good program as a true freshman? Not red shirt, TRUE freshman. You think any Tom, Dick or Harry can do that?

Read the post, not slamming the guy per se just need more of body of work to say he is a walk-in starter anywhere. If I wanted to slam your post I would point out he would likely be running 3rd team at the same program as a True JUNIOR next year if he stayed there. So not sure what he beat out to start as a Freshman means much right now.
He is enough of talent that hell yes you take him if he wants to come ,
Yeah, it wad TCU, my mistake. Regardless, going 8-5 as a true freshman in the SEC is respectable. Also, what P5 game experience of Cooper are you watching to compare against Eason that says he can’t beat out CC?Are you saying Eason beat Penn State in his first bowl game as a true Freshman ? On what planet ? ON this planet Eason threw for 160 yards with a 43 QB rating while handing the ball off 40 times in the Liberty Bowl as true Freshman to beat TCU.

I think he is hopefully off to Miami, but UW looks like a better bet. His pro-style QB play is outstanding, but I don’t think Air Raid is in his future. I don’t care to give any more thought to Browning, Sirmon, Eason and Yankoff. It makes me nauseous.
I think Tinsley, Bledsoe, Cooper, Gordon are the best bet in my opinion from what we have right now.
I thought it was interesting to read in another article that TH was mentoring John Bledsoe as Luke Falk mentored him. Made me wonder if Bledsoe, not Neville, has emerged from the rest of the group. FWIW, Bledsoe was the Oregon 5A first team QB while Neville was 2nd team....although I believe Neville was more highly recruited. It's going to be an interesting and very important spring.
Glad Cougar
I have read that Neville has a stronger arm and is more athletic than Bledsoe. Bledsoe may be farther along in maturity and coaching, as he was coached by his father.
Good intel, 1990. Thanks.
What can you share about Tinsley, Gordon, Brink and Cooper?
Some of the folks I've talked with watched Tinsley at last year's spring game and think he is definitely one to watch. But I didn't read much about him this fall either here or elsewhere.
I did see where Tinsley got some game experience this year holding for field goals and extra points. So maybe CML anticipated a bigger role for him in 2018?
Eason had a lot of promise coming out of highschool, but that's the story with lots of guys. Could he be great at WSU? Maybe, but we have a lot of young talent, and I haven't heard of him wanting to go to WSU. He grew up right next to UW. I am pretty sure he is going there.
A transfer in the mix would be interesting, but we have some talented guys. Really we can just try out who we have and start them young.
We have Neville, Tinsley, Brink, Bledsoe, Gordon, and Cooper.
I am pretty sure we can find a guy who can play well out of that group to be the starter. Yes they will be inexperienced, but you have to start somewhere at sometime.
I really like what I've seen from Cooper. He being a lefty adds an extra dimension.
Eason is a great QB and could really excel, but he still has to sit out of 1 year. That won't help us in our immediate needs next year. I am pretty sure we will start whoever can play the best.
I think Tinsley, Bledsoe, Cooper, Gordon are the best bet in my opinion from what we have right now. We could make that work.
Eason would be great though he's a really tall guy at 6'5 and physically is incredibly gifted. But as I said he has to sit out a year. Doesn't help our immediate need.
Honestly who will start at QB next year is anyone's guess. Since Leach has been at WSU no QB signed with a Leach class of original offers have worked out for one reason or another. We had a walk-on start for three years. I thought I read that Neville was injured in the Fall and missed much of the Fall. We are fortunate that all five will be available to compete in the spring. I think two will need to be ready regardless and who knows how injuries will workout. We only know that Leach will put someone out there in the Fall.
All 5 plus Cooper. I hate to even have this conversation. That said, who has gotten real practice in the Fall? Luke was a RS freshman when he became the starter. Not really different than whoever gets the ball in September.......

Supposedly a strong lean but checking out a couple other programs as well.Hasn't he already announced he's going to UW?
