Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Wish that dude had more Dwag in him. People gave him more shit over his OKG thing, but he was a talent evaluator beyond compare. DoucheBore leveraged ´Pete’s guys and program into 12 per at Bama. Wish Pete wanted to win more and experiment on offenses. He would’ve won huge.

Carroll is my first choice, but IF, and it's a big IF, Petersen has the desire and the pissed off Boise State underdog attitude back, then you have to bring him in.
This roster is getting massacred and it will be a rebuild at this point. Petersen might be able to get some of the portal guys bought back in. The other big question is can he play the NIL and portal game at all?
The guy can get talent wherever. Plus, it was his guys who stayed and made DeWhore successful (ex Penix).
My biggest concern is would he delegate the offense to a more innovative coordinator.
But sports, and hell - human history, is littered with cautionary tales of trying to bring back former leaders. Like getting back together with an ex, you quickly remember why you parted ways in the first place.
Petersen’s fatal flaw is he’s too rigid and set in his ways. Maybe that’s changed, but I doubt it.
HS recruiting is beyond destroyed.
Don't see CP or Carroll hustling the portal. It's a much younger man's game.
Snyder at Kansas State was ancient as shit and had a better run in round two than in round one.
And he's the grumpiest grandpa in football history, give me a fucking break
Look, if Chris Petersen 2: Electric Boogaloo comes to fruition, I would very happy if it turned out to be a redemption arc, and that would be an amazing story if he learned from the past, grew, and came back to give us our title. All my past grievances would be forgiven.
Pair Petersen with Kliff Kingsberry as the OC, that fixes all the offensive creativity and offensive recruiting issues Petersen may have. Petersen can keep himself to the GM role and limit the overwork, Kliff is a big boy and should be able to handle the experiment with Petersen oversight. Tell Kliff he can have control in 3-5 years if he does a good job.
Take the extra money and hire the Iowa or some BIG10 defensive coordinator, whoever has done the best job last year, make him the highest paid DC in the country if you have to, UW has plenty of money to do so.
fuck... WE? are so fucked aren't we................
Petersen has PROVEN he can take a pretty mediocre program and team to #4 in the country. The first two years were a complete culture reset and rebound with Cyler and freshman Browning teams.
It has the making of a good redemption arc, keeps the program nationally relevant, and hopefully it's considered by all parties. I honestly think that would be better than hiring a Klieman or a uhhh, ummm, I don't even fucking know who else.
Yeah bro, simmer down lmao, Morris loses all 8 one score games MINIMUM, fuck out of here 10 wins
In case you were being facetious don't care, don't sully penix memories with Morris trash
If he is willing to take some risk in recruiting edgy type talent that he could coach, I believe he could have great success at UW.
Hell, maybe we should hire Sexton!
