Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Do you still think Pete is the right guy for the job?

    Okay you faggits—here's the thing (so far as I see it).

    It made sense to hire Pete at the time we hired him. Anyone saying otherwise is a fuckhead (and I doubt anyone on this bored would say that). You could have questions about the success of former Boise coaches and that's fine, but no AD in their right mind with a legit shot at him in '13 doesn't take a serious look.

    Okay, fast forward to July 2016.

    We've had 2 shit seasons, but for reasons that seem based in voodoo, hope, bullshit and impressively accurate statistical decisions we are legit winning an off-season Natty.

    We? are recruiting like a motherfucker (except at QB), we have 104 starters back from a promising team (who blew a bunch of close games), we have a defense that seems poised to be our best in 25 years and we have a lot of potential playmakers on offense.

    So, is Pete the guy? What are we going to do? Fire him? I'm not sure his performance thus far merits a canning. We could be on the doorstep of some really great shit. There is no AD on earth that would've canned him after these first two seasons, especially given that the hype train is rolling at this point.

    I'm not fucking Carnac. I don't know what's going to happen.

    I think we go 8-4 this season. Primarily because we are fucking losers.

    I think we will find a way to cock up a few games we should win.

    However, I think we have the ability to win 11-12. So we'll see.

    There are things I like and things I don't like about Pete, but I doubt I'll have a definitive reaction until Apple Cup '17.

    TL;DR - I don't fucking know, but it was a good hire and we sure as shit shouldn't fire him at this point.

    I believe ( southern baptist style). Please pass the hot sauce.

    The point of the thread wasn't to debate whether he should be fired after 2 years, but rather to discuss whether we think he has what his takes to win something of consequence, such as a conference title or national championship. I don't think you should fire any coach that quickly, unless they really drop a turd (Hi Tyrone!).

    My spidey sense tells me he isn't capable. Forget the recruiting and the talent we have, he has shown a pattern of stupid decision making that will lose us some games every year.

    That said, I think I will leave this thread alone until the end of this season. It still has to play out. But it comes down to results, and he can have no excuse for not getting them this year. We have the talent to win the conference, and if we can't, then he can hit the fuckin bricks, regardless of who has a contract or who we think we can get to replace him. Glengarry Glen Ross motherfuckers.

    In other words J is driving a discussion that has no answer behind it other than the whole "well, that's like my opinion man" ... LIPO over the season ... the team is poised for a big season ... sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride
