When Chris Petersen arrived at Washington, he made it clear his players would be as committed in the classroom as they were on the field.
“It has really always been our belief as coaches that our most squared away students are going to be our best players,” Washington’s football coach said. “If you have a bunch of 3.0 students, you should eventually have a bunch of good, solid players.”
Petersen is creating a culture where “it is very cool to be smart.” To facilitate that idea, the Huskies make a point to celebrate success in the classroom. From the 3.0 board mounted in football offices, to the team meeting each quarter that points out and praises each student who earned a spot on that list, academic achievement is built into the fabric of this program. -
They need to hashtag one of these stories with that. Or #NoEdgePurpleJ said: -
Stanford and MIT are "elite institutions." The UW is mostly selective. I've heard tales that they take transfers from NSCC not far from the 7/11 on Aurora. Elite!
