The Huskies picked up a verbal committment from Casey Turner , a quarterback from Virginia. He told me tonight that the facilities, the chance to start soon and the team's success this season were major factors in his decision.
Apparently, after Dennis Brown decided to leave, the Huskies gave Turner a call and made him a scholarship offer. How high are they on him, I'm not certain because this developed pretty suddenly. Where does he fit in? I have to think Tyler Lorenzen has the starting job and Zach Fraser is the primary backup.
Turner has the option of arriving for spring semester, but the wise move would be to sit out next year. He would play in his redshirt freshman year , Lorenzen would be gone and Fraser and Cody Endres would both be juniors. Meaning he would project to two years as the starter.
If he arrives this year and doesn't redshirt, he likely won't start next year and then as a sophomore would have to beat out two other quarterbacks for the next three years.
