Jason Gesser

First off, this is no way an insinuation that the current redshirt frosh QB, Marshall Lobbestael, is on the same path followed by the greatest #17 in school history, Jason Gesser. But in perusing this week’s press release, something caught my eye and made me think back a few years, to when Jason Gesser first broke onto the scene.  Jason Gesser would get the start, and this was against a good Hawaii team to boot, a 9-win bowl Hawaii team in June Jones’ first season on the island. Gesser would lead the Cougs to a 22-14 win, taking some repeated blows from the Hawaii defense in the process. That game was considered the defining moment to the start of Gesser’s career.

One more thing – if Mike Price had it to do over again, he would have given Jason Gesser more starts in that lousy 1999 season. Gesser would have to learn under fire in 2000, but by then he was already a sophomore. He would have some high points in 2000, such as a win at Utah and at Cal. He would also put up some big numbers in a couple of OT losses to Arizona and ASU. But  Jason Gesser would be lost to a broken leg at Oregon State late in the year. So really, it wasn’t until 2001, Gesser’s junior season, before he really put it together, and would lead us on the best two-year run in school history. But again, if Price could do it all over again, he would have used that frosh year to put him into the fire and take the lumps while also getting him true playing experience. Maybe 2000 could have been another story in his sophomore year.
