Not so long ago, reporters and analysts alike were not so crazy about Sam Howell’s training camp performances. I’m not including Field Gulls in this. Certainly not me. I submit article number 1 as evidence - written prior to any preseason game being played. I wanted to see what the man could do in a game first. Maybe they knew who he was in Washington City, but we’re just learning who he is in Washington State: A man who won’t dazzle you Monday through Saturday but shows up and gets the job done on Sundays. I’m not sure that Sam Howell is here to dazzle us.
