It sucks to lose Samson. I do think back to the Christensen year when the phrase “all in or in the way…” Something along those lines became the motivational phrase.
I think it holds true now. You are in the way if you are not 100% committed to the goal of other teammates.
If they join TDS should we even care? Basically that is talent that gets wasted anyways. Isn’t going to be the edge that results in a victory against Utah. I look at this as mostly positive. Trimming the fat so to speak and Puka is no longer in the way at Washington.
