Don't know anything about WSU's o-line, but I'm going to assume it's definitely not better than an OL that included Trey Smith, Brandon Kennedy, and Cade Mays on it.

Even though Wash State plays in a weak division, I'd still bet on them being one of the weaker teams in it this year. 3-9 or 4-8 is not out of the question.

I'm honestly rooting for JG there, but I don't see any evidence that it's a good team.

JG will get exactly what he needs to look brilliant. Weaker D's and more time to read and react.

Interesting. No idea what prompted this. My life and self-image don't revolve around UT football or this forum, it was just an observation. You just practicing your dk moves? Cause, well done.

I'm sorry you never heard of being playful. But it's OK, I take my fun where I can get it. And invite anybody who wants to play too. If you don't, don't, it's just fine. Now, about what my life revolves around, I took a year off from posting in VN to give a family member the care he needed at the time. And cherished the smile on his face I helped make possible despite circumstances. Little wonder then that I engage in having some fun. And, uh...I'd be the first to agree that sometimes my idea of fun isn't funny for some folks. But I don't have time nor interest to worry about that. Try to lighten up, you might feel better.

JG had a couple of NFL WR’s to throw to during his time here and decent rb’s. Sure our offensive system sucked but he made a lot terrible decisions and throws that were his to own up to. That offense was just terrible I don’t even like thinking about it, Cheney and Pruitt just piss me off

Interesting definition of playful and having fun. The point of life not revolving around UT football and this forum is there was no deep-seated emotion or frustration behind my comment in the first place - hence, no, I didn't "feel better" as I didn't feel bad to begin with. Just an observation about the humorous absurdity of the WSU post. But kudos to you and your nobility - somebody should give you a medal. I'll have to remember that technique next time I want to make a dk move.

I see you're one of those things that likes to lie in wait for an excuse to provoke a back and forth stink lacked with snide insults. But this time around, I won't play your and your henchmen's game. When I bump into your kind, I'll make gleeful use of the ignore option. The darn thing actually work.

Whatever, dude. You totally provoked this, and my posts are visible to everyone and I clearly don't have the history you suggest.

So i went to the WSU board to see what comments might be made about JG......here is the most interesting one..

"Guarantano had his issues at UT, however this will be the best offensive line he has ever played behind, and the offense weapons are better than anything he has had before. Sounds like he has something to prove, so if he just plays within himself and the system, he could have his best year ever, if he does, I don't expect the 2nd coming of Minshew, but if he plays well the Cougs have a great year, if he doesn't, well we have 2 other viable options."

another one....

"We do havr someone thats more then capable of getting them the ball and his name is Guarantano.

He did very well getting Tenessee WR's the ball, so much so, that he made the Top 10 statistical passers in Tenessee history list, and had pretty good company with the likes of Peyton Manning, also on that list.

His ability to get WR's the ball wasnt the issue. His issue was crap OL, crap defense, crap coaching, different systems, about 3,4,5,6 different coaches, in his time there, that made him inconsistent.

He shouldnt have those Problems a WSU.

He has NFL Quality WR's in Travell Harris, Calvin Jackson,Moore

He has a NFL RB

He has a NFL O Line and a 1st Round Draft pick OL in Abe Lucas.

And a better coach, and better system.

And he has experience.

If he can stay healthy, not get injured, like how he got injured, and thus only got 1 snap in the Spring game, he will be just fine.

Also in Spring Ball, in his first scrimmage, he went perfect, about 8 for 8, all completions, no incompletions. Led a drive for a TD, threw about a 23 to 33 yard TD pass, about 113 yards, NO INT's.

He has got the arm, can make all the throws.

He 'll do just fine, assuming JDL doesnt stupidly start again.

Guarantano is the favorite to start, its his job to lose."


Players you’re most excited to see this year

One thing you can’t deny about JG is that the kid has guts. Sometimes a change of scenery does people good. I wish him all the best and hope he tears the P12 apart!

It was never the players. These kids transferred and doing great for there new teams. JG gonna ball in that air raid offense. Hell my nephew Brandon Johnson was named team captain for UCF and he is a starter on the outside. The slot days are over...Good luck this season!

I have no ill will towards JG and I hope he performs well there. However, he has never been able to translate his practice performances onto the field regularly on game days. I doubt sling blade did him any favors either

I feel bad for the kid. He never got good/consistent coaching here and he can’t process quickly enough against FBS defenses.

I kind of wish he went to an FCS school so someone there could develop him. Maybe he would have some success there, cause it doesn’t look like it’s any different at WSU.
