Family or football? UW QB commit Ethan Garbers’ answer: ‘I’m rooting for the Dawgs this weekend’

Ethan Garbers has a decision to make.

On Saturday night, the 6-foot-2, 190-pound quarterback will sit inside Husky Stadium — with his family on one side, and his future program on the other. Garbers’ brother, Chase, is the sophomore starter under center for the Cal Golden Bears. In prime time, on national television, they’ll attempt to upend the Washington Huskies — who, by the way, earned Ethan’s verbal commitment last March.

So you can see how this might present something of an awkward situation — a high school senior helplessly torn between family and football.

But, if you ask Ethan, it’s not a difficult decision at all.
