Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
We Really Have No Damn Choice. Petersen Has to Succeed.

The LAST, I repeat LAST thing I want to see is Scott Woodward
having anything to do with selecting a new coach. This is an AD
who has presided over 8 years of the most turgid, uninspired
football humanly possible. Petersen and half his staff have been hugely
disappointing, but expecting Woodward to go out and find someone
better is a non-starter to me. Rearranging deck chairs by firing assistants
is a horrible approach, but massively better than giving our AD any
responsibility. So start with Pease, move on to Smith and hope like hell
that Petersen sees his legacy slipping away and finds some inspired hires.
Or pray for the miracle that Emmert for some reason wants to work again
with Woodward. Then you can clean house.

I am hoping our fat lesbian fires Pool Boy, Peterman and Romar in one glorious day. Even if she wanted to, she'd probably get distracted and just paint the Drumheller fountain like a rainbow. FYFMFE.

of a real AD would be to go to the coach and expect a sacrificial
firing. This would be Pease. Does Woodward have the balls to
confront Petersen with that expectation? Highly doubtful. And there
in a nutshell is your problem with the whole program. As you go up
the food chain, the accountability rachets down rather than up. Exactly
the opposite of what you would expect in a well run business model. -
why does Peterman have to succeed?
Will fewer non-ingrish speaking international kids paying cash for condo's start going to WSU instead? -
Well I'll spell it out for you. Because no one abovesarktastic said:why does Peterman have to succeed?

him particularly cares if he wins or not. Woodward would like to win
but has no balls to insist on it. Woodward's bosses are happy with
sustainability ribbons. There are no SERIOUS money donors to apply
pressure. The fans are not SEC serious and will just go watch the Seahawks
or Sounders. Hate Oregon all you want but their organizational structure
is built for success with increased accountability as you go up the ladder.
Any success we have in the future is going to have to come from Petersen's
internal drive to save a pretty damn good image that is rapidly going downhill.
I guess we are going to find out pretty quickly which is more important to him.
Loyalty to under performing assistants or preserving his reputation as an achiever.
And again for emphasis. I think the whole program structure is fucked up. But barring
change to that which ain't coming, success has to come from Petersen. -

And again let's not forget Woody hired Sark out of the fucking blue after not firing Ty appropriately and then only hired Petersen because Sark quit. Nothing about the coaching situation has been proactive; it is all reactive and he is so far out of his league it's laughable.

Sorry I forgot Turner and Ty but still fuck Woody.

I tend to agree with the HB's who say it's on the HC as well as some family members who did alright with their small businesses. It's on Petersen. If he can't fire the right assistants, he can live with the consequences. Of course, the problem is, there are no consequences for 6-6 anymore. Lambo got fired for it. Now it's blamed on the last coach and youth.

Needed is someone like Phil Knight, with mega deep pockets
that would re-arrange the whole power structure of the program
from top down. Someone to tell the apathetic upper campus that
there will be no mega million donations for the new Forestry Building
unless the football team has the face of a winner. How the hell in a tech
area like Seattle are there no heavy hitters who are Husky fans? Did none
of these tech moguls grow up with Husky football? -
