We broke him.

He completed 90% of his passes (in regulation). If that qualifies as breaking him then I'd rather we fixed him.
He did get injured against Oregon St but no explanation for the in-between. Maybe he was already somewhat injured and the Oregon St hit was more than he could take.

Matt, it seems does likely that most college QBs would improve steadily and significantly throughout their careers.
But statistically, it doesn't happen.
A remarkably high percentage of college QBs decline in their second year, and a remarkably low percentage improve significantly. A notable nearby example of decline--or at least utter lack of progress--is Jake Browning.
I may have a large compilation of stats on this. I've watched it carefully.
Costello has a talent but some very rough edges. He's posting terrific numbers, likely helped by the most underrated coaches on our staff. Exactly why some Stanford fans think Pritchard is not a good coach, must less the very good he is, baffles me.
Mike Sanford is at substantial risk of losing his job.

Pritchard may be a good QB coach, and may be a good OC too, but Shaw seems to get in his way too much. I would very much love to see the offense without David Shaw's hands all over it. He needs to let the OC run the offense so he can stay aware of game management issues.

Substantial just became 100%. Sanford officially fired at WKU.

If Costello declares for the draft, I don't see Stanford having a winning season next year.
Biggest decision that no one is talking about.
More or less a random guess, but maybe he'd go in the third round in 2019?
In 2017, 10 qbs were drafted, including four in rounds one and two: Trubisky, Mahomes, Watson and Kizer.
In 2018, 13 qbs were drafted, including five in round one (none in round two): Mayfield, Darnold, Allen, Rosen and Jackson.
This is a list of QBs getting some hype from SI recently:
https://www.si.com/college-football/2018/11/07/nfl-draft-quarterbacks-rankings-scouting-reports-2019
Herbert, Oregon
Drew Lock, Missouri
Will Grier, West Va.
Dwayne Haskins, Ohio State
Ryan Finley, NC State
Clayton Thorson, Northwestern
Jarrett Stidham, Auburn
Tyree Jackson, Buffalo
Brett Rypien, Boise State
Daniel Jones, Duke
I am by no means an expert, but I think it's reasonable that KJ would be graded higher than maybe half of these guys?
