On Monday, UW head coach Jimmy Lake said the Huskies were "no place near" a quarterback adjustment.
On Friday, Lake may not have actually been given a lot of an option.
Though redshirt freshman quarterback Dylan Morris began his seventh consecutive video game this period, Sam Huard-- a five-star freshman and the most prolific passer in Washington prep football history-- got in the game against Arizona in the second series, after Morris disappeared right into the clinical outdoor tents. Morris returned one series later on.
Morris was sacked on the last play of UW's opening drive, as well as apparently endured an injury. Huard-- a 6-foot-2, 190-pounder from Kennedy Catholic High School-- made his UW launching in the 52-3 gain Arkansas State on Sept. 18, completing 2 of 5 masquerade 31 yards. His 13,214 occupation prep passing backyards are one of the most in the background of the state.
The child of previous UW quarterback Damon Huard, and also the nephew of previous UW quarterback Brock Huard, Sam was placed as a first-class hire and also the No. 3 quarterback in the 2021 class by 247Sports.
On Monday, when asked if he's considering a quarterback adjustment, Lake said: "We are nowhere near that factor right now. We are a pair plays away from being (3-0 in the Pac-12). And I recognize we're not; we're 1-2 in conference, and that's what our record is which's what we are. Yet if you go back to the last 2 games, we're one, 2 plays away from being 3-0 in conference. So we're close, as well as we've got to maintain functioning. We've got to maintain getting better and ensure we can change those outcomes.
"So there's not mosting likely to be a panic switch pushed right here where suddenly we're simply mosting likely to be revolving people in and out at certain placements, specifically an essential placement like quarterback."
Morris and Huard may wind up doing just that.
