    I have a shitty feeling the offense is going to be called the same. Will make for fun time on the boreds though.

    Criticism in that case goes to Pete not bush.
    what? they both should be blamed if they have same abomination of an offense they did last year

    my point being that will confirm beyond all modicum of doubt that pete has a tight grip on the scheme/playcalling and any OC in place is merely running his system and doesn't have much in the way of originality/variance

    He certainly does. Pete was quoted on day one of Spring Ball saying they like their offense and talking about how cool it was that Bush was familiar with it.

    I mean more for situational playcalling. But yeah you're right. Fuck.

    Petersen tried handing the full reigns of the offense over to an OC at Boise State. Robert Prince was the OC for two seasons and he pretty much junked the "classic" BSU offense and went to a very simplified up-tempo pistol system. They were easily the two worst offenses of Petersen's tenure there.

    So he probably learned a lesson from that. Unfortunately maybe the wrong lesson.

    While I would love to see UW run a different offense that is easier to learn and can be played at tempo, it isn't happening now. And probably never will.

    Or it could be argued that if he was willing to do it once he could do it again- just with the right OC.

    Obviously not Smith.
