Hopefully he can be around 200 lbs next year for an expanded role.

Keith B. will still have Washington and will add speed-merchant McGrew in 2016. Would like to get a thumper for the 2017 class since DW will gone and Coleman will be a RS-SR.

    Da-fuq?!?! Peterman will run the freaking ball!

    at least once every 3 drives, of maybe 2 drives if our RB goes for 70+ on a run.

    Yes, that would be great. Then we could watch Peterman continue to not run the ball with even better RBs.

    "Running the ball isn't always the best way to attack a defense. It's really hard to run the ball. Maybe we could have been a little more stubborn in the run game. We still are figuring things out, but once these guys are seniors, they will have the necessary experience to best attack a defense."

    FUCK!

    I hate the cliche of needing a thumper. Bishop Sankey never needed to come out of the game and he wasn't a "thumper." Dalvin Cook on FSU isn't either. Just get some good fucking RB's. Gaskin is one.

    Why do you hate Johnie Kirton?

    This is where Peterman probably misses an AD who gets it.

    If UW had an AD who:

    A) Was straight
    B) Cared about winning
    C) Understood football

    He would be pushing Peterman ... not accepting his bullshit.

    It's like when I go into a conversation with an IT director. The fucker will talk me in circles, unless I go in with some asshole who speaks that geek shit. Then the IT director knows he is fucked and has to do what I am wanting.

    Yeah, but where are you going to find a straight guy who cares about winning and knows football these days?

    I actually agree with him in general. Assuming you have a competent passing game, it might be best to attack certain defenses with the pass more than the run.

    But we don't have a competent passing game. So it ends up being ridiculous.

    It is one thing to realize Oregon has weaknesses in the secondary. That is what a good coach would do. But to create an entire gameplan around your non-existant passing game is asinine. And then defending it after you have seen the results of your idiocy is even worse.

    Bubble screens, slow offense, and shitty clock management are the hallmarks of a winner.

    What's this "running game" you speak of???

    It's the thing you're supposed to use when you have 4th and 1 at your opponent's 39 yard line.
    If you can't see the 4th and 1 QB punt is the wave of the future I can't help you.

    Peterman is just ahead of his tim.

    Have you ever coached D-1 football??? Didn't think so.

    How dare you question the strategy of the Boise Jr College guru!

    I know it's confirmation bias, but I only remember the times Petersen has been wrong. I can think of quite a few scenarios. When has he been right in a coaching situation?

    at UW? I don't know.

    At Boise? Uh, hello...have you forgotten about this?

    By thumper, I don't mean a guy who is 220-240 lbs but isn't fast or not a natural runner.

    For 2017, this Cali RB is what I'm talking about but will be 99.69696969696969696969696969% impossible to flip him from Alabama:
