The Potential of Marvin Washington to build around

[StunningSteve]

Post-David Pindell, I believe Marvin Washington really has the 'it factor' to lead UConn back to winning seasons.
I know he's working hard on academics right now, but he's really a smart kid.
I was wondering what some of the impressions on this board are of his potential.
He committed to Scott Frost at UCF before decommitting when they took two other quarterbacks. One of those guys has since followed Frost to Nebraska and the other will be replacing Milton in the title game next week.
Anyway, I believe UConn's success is greatly helped by having a dual threat at QB and this guy kinda bears a resemblance to Kyler Murray (only he's much taller)

I had really high hopes for him, but he can't even travel with the team. He hasn't been reliable enough to be a starting quarterback

It factor, hmmmm! I want a QB that can throw passes accurately and reads progressions. If it takes a smart or dumb QB, doesn't matter to me as long as he can pass. UConn played this year on half a field offensively and is 108th in scoring, QB must be able to pass.

It Factor? He might be the next Tom Brady for all I know, but what has he shown at all this far to show he has the “it factor”?

Yeah thats the only difference

He has the physical talent no doubt about that. Big time arm, effortless whip of a windup, 6'2" with 4.7 speed. Love his talent but he needs to work hard and master the other aspects of the game and he needs to stay out of the coach's dog house.

Washington and Krajewski are poised to have a terrific head to head battle for the QB job this spring. No idea who will emerge victorious.

Nice video
What happens when 6 UCF monsters are in his face?
I like the kid as well as Krajewski - lets see what happens

Have you looked at his stats? He did not look confident out there. He might have a big time arm but even the announcer said he has to keep the ball in bounds. It would’ve been nice if Pindell had another year. I will admit Washington has a lot of upside but I’m just not sold on him yet.

"A bigger Kyler Murray" lmao

Assuming the center today after Crozier came outis the center next season it doesn’t matter who the quarterback is. If he somehow accurately snaps it he will whiff on his block.

 

[Milo65]

There are so many other pieces missing from this team that it really doesn’t matter at this point who is at the helm.

Plus edsall will pick the wrong qb anyway

I guess I don't have the leeway with this crowd to speak in sports jargon.

If you've watched McKenzie Milton the last couple years, you should have a deeper appreciation for the traits and qualities it takes to get a QB offer from Scott Frost. For those who don't know, Frost evaluated quarterbacks for Chip Kelly at Oregon.

Make of that what you will. Washington's not gonna be a stiff.
