I now find pessimism annoying

Shelton, Kikaha, Thompson, and Peters are showing up on all sorts of national lists.

The O-line and defensive front 7 are stocked with upperclassmen with tons of playing experience.

Mickens and Ross. Cooper and Callier (The RBs we thought we would have two years ago)

A 4 star QB in his third year in the program with significant game experience.

A schedule that is ridiculously easy.

And one of the top 5 coaches in CFB.

The only possible problem is an inexperienced defensive backfield.

And yet some people insist on having......concerns

The truth is this: Sark did recruit some studs, and now we have a coach who knows what he is doing.

Washington is about to become WASHINGTON again.


11-2. At least.

    Pro-tip: lie down, close your eyes, put one foot on the floor, and go like this.

    This would carry a lot more weight if you hadn't said it every offseason since Gilby was fired.

    This should be a pretty damn good team. There are plenty of reasons they could win less than 11 games. Some might call them concerns.

    And you've ALWAYS found pessimism in July annoying.
    That is not entirely true. Many years I have looked at our on-paper talent, and said we were going to finally turn it around, but bad coaching (or a ton of injuries in 2012) caused us to underachieve.

    This team now has everything it needs to win big - including a great coach

    Don't count on Cooper & Callier. Maybe Callier can outrun the worst defense in the slowest conference but thats about it.

    Dwiz Nasty (Dwayne Washington) is going to have a breakout campaign and Shaq & Coleman will supplement.

    You're not actually responsible conference power rankings.

    Now I am not saying Peterson is like Ty, But not once has Peterson mentioned how they are here to win Rose Bowls and National Championships. In fact, he hasn't mentioned that at all. Sark mentioned it all the time, and I liked that a lot, it shows he is confident in himself. Peterson is a lot like Ty, don't go twisting though and say I said they are the same, because I didn't.... But they are.

    Like the hire though ;)

    But seriously. I agree with you, Aubs. I can't see UW winning less than 10 games quite honestly. I have UW at 11-2 this year too, but I think they lose a game that I have as a win and go 10-3. My only real concern is having a new staff in place and the learning curve that is required. I think that might be what holds UW back from 11-2, 12-1.
