I absolutely buy that. Let’s start at the top -- I don’t see Chris Petersen leaving Washington anytime soon. He’s digging his heels into that Seattle territory and I think he’ll be there for a while. He’s certainly planning for two or three years down the road at all times and I think he likes what he sees with the Huskies.
Offensively, you’ve got all the pieces. In a few years, you’ll have a quarterback, running back and left tackle who have started from day one and are veterans on the field and in the locker room. Receivers such as Chico McClatcher, Isaiah Renfro and Brayden Lenius will have all sorts of chemistry with quarterback Jake Browning and that offensive line -- which had a true freshman and redshirt freshman starting at both tackle positions this year -- will be the sturdiest in the conference.
Defensively, I don’t know how you can bet against a squad that lost so much in 2014 and came back just as strong in 2015. At this point, I’d bet Petersen & Co. could field a stand-up defense using the five members of the Pac-12 blog, five starters on the Washington basketball team and Ross from "Friends". It’d be tough, but I think they could do it.
That group will have a veteran, uber-experienced secondary in the coming years and they’ll continue to plug in less-experienced players to get them more reps with the veterans as time goes on. In that front seven coaches like Elijah Qualls, Vita Vea, Jaylen Johnson, Keishawn Bierra, Victor Azeem and several others. Not to mention the 2016 recruiting class has several impressive skill position players and big bodies that the coaches can mold into playmakers. And, need I say that Petersen already has locked up an impressive 2017 cornerback and 2018 quarterback? Petersen has his ducks in a row, and he’s planning on using them to take down the Oregon Ducks.
