Washington beat writer Bob Condotta suggests that junior Keith Price may not be guaranteed the starting QB spot to open the 2013 season.
"Price will need to re-prove himself... with the Huskies now having more legitimate options behind him, including redshirt freshmen Cyler Miles and Jeff Lindquist and true freshman Troy Williams," Condotta wrote. "It's hard to tell yet just how 'open' the quarterback spot will be." Price entered the season with high expectations after multiple lower body injuries appeared to slow down his movement in 2011, but the junior's lack of quality decision making and arm talent was spotlighted far too often.

Washington junior QB Keith Price completed 20-of-39 attempts for 242 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions against Boise State.

It was another below average performance for Price, who had high expectations prior to the season. We aren't exactly sure why the junior produced a down year despite being healthier than in 2011. He has mobility, but too often his lack of arm talent produces turnovers in tight situations.

Washington junior QB Keith Price completed 16-of-29 attempts for 235 yards, one touchdown, and one interception Friday against Cal.

Price was asked to throw numerous three step drops in order to limit the time his offensive line was asked to block, but the junior still felt pressure most of the night. The Husky has been somewhat of a let down this season, but with an improved offensive line he could show much better next year.

Washington junior QB Keith Price had a performance to forget Saturday against Oregon, completing 19-of-31 passes for 145 yards and two interceptions.

Price also added five runs for 24 yards. We expected the junior to take a big step forward this season, utilizing his mobility to create big plays after knee injuries hampered him last season. Sure, the Huskies lack offensive talent compared to last season, but Price appears to lack the velocity on out routes and downfield, which severely limits his ability to stretch defenses.

Washington junior QB Keith Price was limited in Thursday's win over Stanford, completing 19-of-37 passes for 177 yards, including one touchdown and one interception.

This performance was not as much of a display of Price's talent, but more the abomination that is the Huskies' offensive line. The junior quarterback had so little time to throw and often felt pressure immediately at the end of his drop. When given some time, Price did attempt a handful of downfield throws, but he will continue to struggle all season due to the lack of talent in the trenches. At least evaluators will have plenty of tape to see how he handles pressure.

Former NFL Scout Daniel Jeremiah says Washington junior QB Keith Price did not flash any "wow" characteristics at the Manning Passing Academy.

Price is "above average in all areas" according to Jeremiah. Coming off a 3,063 passing, 33 touchdown and eleven interception sophomore campaign, Price is poised for a big season despite remaining under the radar. Jeremiah does credit Price's arm strength, claiming he can make all the throws and manipulates his velocity on underneath routes. A left knee sprain hampered Price's movement last season, so we are expecting better things from him in 2012.

With major contributors on offense having moved on, it may be asking too much for Keith Price to duplicate his 2011 effort.

Price may prove to be a better quarterback during his junior season, but the numbers could pale to 2011. The loss of running back Chris Polk, let alone a couple of top receivers, can only alter the dynamics of the Huskies' offense. After all, Polk chewed up the yards big time while wearing down opposing defenses. There are also issues on the line that, at least early in the season, could hinder the overall development of an offense with many new faces in stating roles.

A 315-yard effort against Hawaii on Sept. 10 was his previous high for passing yards and his 319 total yards that day were also a high-water mark. The bowl game was his fourth with 4 TDs passing this seaason. Price completed his sophomore year and first as a starter with 3,063 yards passing and 33 TDs.

Washington quarterback Keith Price will start in Saturday’s Apple Cup against Washington State.

Price’s knee sprain kept him out of last week’s game against Oregon State, which gave Nick Montana the chance to make his first-career start. Price is the nation’s 15th-rated passer, though things have not gone as smoothly since the Pac-12 schedule heated up. In his first six games, which included three conference tilts, Price had 21 TD passes and only 4 INTs. Since, he is 5/7, including a season-high 3 picks in a win against Arizona.

Washington quarterback Keith Price threw 4 TD passes in a 52-24 win over visiting Colorado.

Huskies fans are not walking around asking, "Jake who?" But while Jake Locker carved out a legacy during his tenure in Seattle, Price is doing some special things this season. His 4 TD strikes, all in the opening half, give him 21 – 21!! – on the season. He has thrown either 3 of 4 TDs in each of six games. His other numbers against the Buffs: 21-28-257, 0 INTs.

Washington’s first-year starting quarterback Keith Price continues to move the offense while injuries take a bite out of the defense.

With some key players on the Huskies’ defense banged up and even lost for the season, Price may have to continue to light it up through the air in what could be a season in which the last team to score turns out the lights. It may not be that bad for the UW defense, but Price has been doing his job. Taking over for the departed and much-heralded Jake Locker, Price finds himself tied atop the nation with 14 TD passes in leading the Huskies to a 3-1 start.

Coach Jeff Tedford (CAL) compares the skill set of Washington QB Keith Price to former Husky star Jake Locker.

"He can do a lot of the same things and he's mobile," Tedford said. "He's just not as big or physical so he doesn't run through as many tackles as Jake could." Price is putting together an impressive sophomore campaign, leading the NCAA in passing touchdowns (11) while completing 64 percent of his targets. Though currently suffering from two sprained knees, he's scheduled to start for Washington Saturday against California.
