    If Petersen is as good at developing players as I think he is, we are going to see many pleasant surprises at several positions by mid to late September.

    If Peterman is so good at developing players, WTF happened to the UW offense last year?
    QPOTD. What the fuck is there to develop with Miles' arm?
    And the RBs?

    I mean, how bare was the cupboard?
    Washington was certainly better albeit still not a complete back and Coleman is too slow to be a D1 back, imo.

    I'll maintain till the day I die I'm faster than Coleman. In no way do I think I'm excelling at a D1 level.

    If he is a 4 star, I'm a 4 star, and that is scary.

    If he is a good coach he should produce next year.

    I mostly like Petersen. He's shown he has a keen eye for talent, he runs a disciplined program, and he preaches fundamentals. He won't let players slack off and ignore every non starter on the team. All of this will lead to better depth and player development.

    I just don't think the players will develop right away. The OL will be young guys and bums. The entire front 7 save Feeney is gone. And QB will likely be below average this year, barring a surprise. The offensive system at the least needs some tweaks, maybe even a total overhaul.

    Coaching matters, but this team probably won't be very good. Talent and experience matters as well. This roster is lacking in both. I think Bill made the best point in the thread that by the end of the year, there should be something to look forward to.

    If by 2016, we still are getting below average QB play and the team is still soft, we will know Petersen isn't the guy. I will bitch and be pissed if Petersen loses to Boise like I do after most losses, but it will take a 4-8 type season with multiple plungers for me to completely quit on Petersen before 2016.

    @RaceBannon, I find it interesting you have a minimum win count for 2015, but said 2014 didn't matter whenever UW lost.

    That was then. This is now.

    On the bright side, I did get totally hammered on 09/04/10. It was my fortieth birthday.

    Race didn't raise his expectations until he did.

    Why is this interesting? Year 1 was about purging the Sark blight and installing his system/culture. Time to show something. Year 2 is almost always a telltale sign if coaches are the guy or not. Laying an egg week 1 in a huge OOC game would be a disaster.
