    If Pete knew it was a problem and didn't at least reassign Smith (if his sense of loyalty prevented him from firing him), then that's a failure of leadership.

    Smith is also a young coordinator that was provided an experienced mentor to help him through the year and see what kind of growth could be made ...

    While you want to cite failure of leadership because of not immediately firing Smith after last year, there's another side where by firing it's not just Pete admitting that he got the hire wrong but that he also failed to develop him as a coach (bigger issue IMO preventing him from firing him) ...

    If the offense shits itself and the team doesn't reach its goals you can be assured that Smith is the designated fall guy

    Totally, totally obvious that Smiff sucks and literally designs and calls plays that go away from our talent and skill, instead of embracing and working with what we have. This is THE SOURCE of the offensive sputtering and misfiring we describe as a shit-show.

    Yes, Peterman is to blame for not firing his ass, but the silver lining is that Smiff should be gone after this season, regardless of our record. The four games I've seen have not demonstrated a competent, talented Pac12 offense, despite plenty of talent and a highly-recruited QB.

    It's extremely telling that the majority of this pod is the discussion about how to win the Stanford game, DESPITE the offense.

    Do you even have a question?

    What has stopped Petersen from firing Smith to this point? Nothing. So I don't see how we can assume Smith will be gone at season's end.
    If UW loses tomorrow, we already know how it will happen. If that happens, tomorrow, it will happen again later in the season, and Peterson should be fired on the 50 and Babushka should be dumped off the 520 bridge

    I enjoyed the discussion about Haka fag. What's sad is, as you describe it, we basically have to manage our defense and scheme to "hide" Haka. But, the coaches don't have anyone else they think is better? We have NFL players all over that defense and yet we have one loser so bad he wouldn't play in the Big Sky, and there is nobody anywhere better than him to replace him with?

    I hate to admit this, but the podcast is actually getting really good. I still hate you all.
