Good chit, DJ, Mike, and Kyle
Keep the F bombs coming. -
Listening right now...I'm pretty sure only an ultimate Doog would use a Coog coach's audio for an intro.

Good podcast, guys. Lots of great discussion, thanks for taking the time.
The most pertinent part I took away from it was when Derek told the story of Don James hiring then HC Keith Gilbertson away from Idaho in '89. That hire catapulted the program to its greatest success, leading to three consecutive Rose Bowls (Winning the '91 and '92 RBs; Gilberston was not UW OC for the '93 RB loss), and a National Championship. Years later, Neu hired Gilby in '99 as OC and UW won the 2001 RB. He was not a successful HC, but he won three RBs as UW OC. Not many coaches can say that.
Chip Kelly to 0regon is another example of a program-changing OC hire, but maybe even more extreme: Belotti hired him away, program took a giant leap, he ended up with Belotti's job, and we all know the rest.
Where I'm going with this is these are prime examples that certain hires can change the trajectory of a program. If Petersen wants to right this ship quickly, he may need to pull a similar move, although I do not see him doing so. Time will tell. -

Yes, Tui mos def played a pivotal role during UW's last RB winning team. But Tui was the starter the three seasons prior to 2000 and never made it to the RB.PurpleBaze said:

Regardless, if you win three RBs as an OC, you can coordinate a fucking offense. Pretty sure Kyle Benn can attest to this, as he seemed to say as much in the podcast. -
I'mnot suggesting we fucking hire Keith Gilbertson right now, but I am saying the offense would look a lot different right now if he was the OC instead of Smiff.

Pinkel was OC in 90. Gilby came on a O line coach, his true calling. Same with Rick, he came as O Line coach. Dorrell was OC

Didn't Gilby take the cal job after 91? Did he coach the rosebowl that season? Did cal get any free pub?
