    we also have tons of people here in their 20s who know nothing but losing-to-mediocre football when it comes to the Huskies.

    Mid 30s ...

    Grew up in the Seattle area ... lifelong Husky ... only applied to the UW ...

    Went to the UW during the late 90s and early 00's ... knew a lot of guys on the last Rose Bowl team.

    Was lucky to go to TCU for grad school ... very easy to see the difference between what was happening at the UW and what a good coach like Gary Patterson was able to do with seemingly far fewer resources (particularly back when TCU was in the Mountain West) ... reminded me a lot of the UW teams that I grew up watching in the early 90s.

    I see a lot of very strong correlations with Petersen ... I worry whether or not the impatience of our fanbase and desire to eat our own when things don't go 100% perfectly every single day, weekend, etc. will cannibalize some of Petersen's efforts.

    Tequila went to TCU for grad school?

    No way!

    29.720739 ...

    Grew up in the Seattle area... didn't care about the Huskies until I showed up ... only applied to the UW and Colorado School of Mines (since they sent me a letter saying I was accepted as long as I filled in the form they gave me)...

    Went to the UW during the early to mid 00's... knew someone who knew Isaiah Stanback and Johnny Durocher hit on my girlfriend at the Hub one day apparently.

    Was intelligent to go to Wisconsin for grad school ... very easy to see the difference between what was happening at the UW and what a mediocre coach like Bret Bielema was able to do with seemingly comparable resources (particularly back when Wisconsin had to play all the teams in the Big 10 every year).... reminded me a lot of what I knew about the Lambo years that I didn't really care about as a kid.

    I see a lot of very strong correlations with Petersen (and Don James, as documented in the first Ramblings™ of the season)... I worry whether or not the impatience of our fanbase and desite to eat our own when things don't go 100% perfectly every single, day, weekend, week, month, year, decade, century, millennium, age, epoch, period, era, eon, forever, etc will cannibalize some of Petersen's efforts.

    Early 90's, undergrad, med school and then residency on the east coast. Now I can't stomach the program, the free pub and especially Doogman and the fat fuck trio. Fetters, Ecklund and softy need to gtfo Now I'm stuck attending PSU games (Emmert fucked me here too) and traveling to OSU or Louisville for live football. Club Seats at Beaver Stadium, all money I'd gladly throw at UW had they not hired Willingham, Sloppy 7 and Woody

    About the same age as Tequila, went to UW about the same time.

    I grew up in Seattle (before it was really pussified) and loved the Hawks and Huskies equally and always will. I can't name the entire two deeps or the left tackle from 1996 but I love them.

    It's real simple. I want winning and a Rose Bowl more than every 10-15 years. Petersen is the man to do it IMO but it's not going to just magically turn into a Chip Kelly .840ish record right away. At a minimum he needs to win 70% of the 1-a gaymes.

    I'm not a UW fan, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night

    I grew up in Canada back in the day when there were only like 13 channels... one of them was KOMO and I watched basically every Husky game (this was pre-Pac12 Network so you actually could watch the games!) and then would watch Don James run through all the plays on Sundays during that Coaches Show he did. I love the Huskies but HATE everything they have become in the last 14 years... trying to hold on...losing grip I fear.
