Gee Scott compares Sam Darnold's future to Matt Hasselbeck's success in Seattle

During his introductory presser, newly signed quarterback Sam Darnold talked about his love for the 12s, shared his excitement working with Klint Kubiak again, and opened up about the bitter end to his career-best season last year -- all while rocking a flannel fit for a 1990s Pearl Jam concert.

"I love him," Gee Scott, co-host of "The Gee and Ursula Show" on KIRO Newsradio, told Charlie Harger on "Seattle's Morning News." "My man pulled up in a flannel yesterday, he looked good. He read the room. He knew the assignment: I'm going to the Pacific Northwest. He probably had a Starbucks cup off to the side. My man looks like he can say 'Puyallup' the right way. He looks like he can say 'Enumclaw' the right way. I am so excited about Sam Darnold."
