Last week Petersen was a hero, second coming of the Dawgfather.. This week he's more like Gilby.

Pretty much this. I'm not going to get too bent out of shape about one week. The offense played like dog shit (dawg shit?) on Saturday. Against Cal's fucking defense. That sucks, I get it. The QB is a true FR, 3/5 OL are FR and one is a SO, and the WR are a steaming pile of hot garbage. There are going to be more weeks like this one (or worse) this year before all is said and done. I'm still willing to LIFPO.
So instead of focusing on what isn't going to happen, focusing on on what is reasonable is.
Babushka getting shit canned.
Woody getting shit canned for enabling LoRo after another sub .500 season and 25% full arenas.
The only thing that gets Woody shit canned is if the football stadium is empty. And that is only because there are bonds and shit that have to be met to pay off the stadium.
When will anyone on this board learn nobody at UW gives two fucking shits about any sport outside of crew.
Football is dead.
We've been sitting on this board for 12 years ... pretending next year will be special.
Meanwhile Oregon has won numerous big boy bowls and played in 2 natty's.
If Washington was serious about football this would be the year to prove it. But nobody is.
**Christ ... instead of scheduling home and home series with football teams people will pay to see .. Woody is talking about fucking fashion shows at half time. That tells you all you need to know.
Schools are going to have to place some business sense on coaching contracts. The market is fucked up. AD's act like little pussies in negotiating high-paying, long-term deals for their coaches. Yes, looking directly at Pool Boy and Bull Moos. They are both on the hook for massive dollars to get rid of their shit hires.
You want the big bucks? Fine - you sacrifice long-term security. You want long-term security and 9 years to build it 'the right way'. Cool - smaller base, long-term deal with a substantial severance and big performance bonuses.
Can't have it both ways.
Sounds good on paper.
But the winners set the pace for the losers.
The winners of the world are willing to turn and burn until they find the right guy.
This forces the losers of the world to offer big money to get the next up and coming guy, problem is ... the losers never fire the guy.
Doog legends are born from this model.
Agreed -either never fire or can't fire because the ADs hamstrung themselves trying to keep up with the Jones'. Or try to justify their shittingly horrible negotiating skills by somehow deluding themselves into thinking football coaches are a scarce commodity.
I will give Pete a few more weeks before truly losing it. He's been shit so far. 10-8 with the easiest non conference schedules any UW coach has ever had.
I'm scared Babushka stays. I don't think it matters really. It's Petersen's offense. Petesen thinks his offense is fine and they just need more reps to "figure out how to best attack a defense." It's a half truth. They will probably get better, but this is the fourth straight season of bad offense for Pete. The scheme sucks and there is no need to have this complicated of offense.
We have no OL this year except for the babies way out of their depth, and had no OL recruiting for 3 years. Pete knows this. It's a lost season. If he's playing the long game, then we should be happy with a shit faced season filled with dreckfest play calling, a firing of babushka at the end of it, and our real offensive scheme hidden until next year.
The idea that Woody should be on the hot seat is where the focus should be. You can question Pete all you want, but his refusal to move on from Lorenzo is a terminatable offense in my book
LIPO. He gets 3 years from me. Probably at least 4 no matter what in reality, because of the precedent our fucktarded AD has set. The man you want to fire right now is Woody. Get a real AD who will tell Pete to win or get fucked.
I said from the beginning I'll give him three seasons, so I'm hanging tough in the LIPO mode as well. I shouldn't be surprised because of what Husky Football has become (i.e. 21st Century Husky Football; a.k.a. the Marinerization of Husky Football), but Petersen's numerous coaching errors during game time is embarrassing and has left me wondering how in the fuck this guy won as many games as he did. I know what conference(s) Boise Community College was/is in and all that crap, but still. @Jesus_H_Christ !
I agree UW needs an AD that's actually, ya know, ran an athletic department before, but UW doesn't even have an appointed president right now. So, the AD and Petersen have carte blanche, probably for the next two years or so, while the BOR trips over themselves finding a new president. But it's not solely on the AD. No, I believe that the Marinerization of Husky Football is now deeply rooted in the very fabric of this university, and is most likely beyond repair. Just as the Mariners' atrocious administration hamstrings that team over and over again, so does the UW's admin.
Since dickface Gerberding hired Babs and destroyed Husky Football, here is a list of the illustrious UW presidents that followed him (List does not include interim presidents):
- Richard McCormick: Ran outta town for allegedly having a love triangle with fellow UW employees. - Mark Emmert: Nuffsed on that. - Michael Young: Took the job as a retirement package and did absolutely fucking nothing during his tenure. Last straw, ran outta town after he allegedly requested to work remotely... from Utah.
So who's selecting these great leaders? The UW Board of Regents. Who appoints the BOR members? Why, the governor of course! And there's the rub. Due to the PC, unusual faggotry this state has become in the last twenty years, I do believe Husky Football is fuct for life.

I don't give two shits about coordinators. If you fire a coordinator, it doesn't necessarily mean you're tuff or smart (hi, Sark!).
Smith could literally hate platooning the running backs, but Pete tells him to do it. We have no fucking idea.
Pete's the CEO. It lies at his feet.

Still beating my meat.
Except Doogs
HTH

Hey, at least we still have crew!
