Clark on Townsend: “Jaret is a dynamic winger that loves to run at players. He’s possibly the best 1v1 player in the country for the 2016 recruiting class, so our defenders will be happy they don’t have to line up against him on game days. He's known for making video game like runs through other team’s defenses and so will become a crowd favorite here in Seattle. In our eyes, he’ll be a great replacement for Josh Heard who spent the last four years giving fullbacks in the Pac-12 a very hard time.”
