    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.
    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.

    How much simpler can it get? Hand the ball to Gaskin, hand the ball to Gaskin, throw to Savon or Bryant?

    He can make a huge difference by simply making better choices on like a half dozen plays a game. As much as I would love to believe that he may have a significantly larger impact than that, I will be very happy with him simply not calling a handful of momentum killing Smiff Specials and being a little more stubborn about running the ball.
    So you're saying you DON'T enjoy seeing passing plays on 3 of 4 downs each series?

    Herbstreit on ESPN Columbus, WBNS 1460 AM this morning said Hamdan is the most underrated OC hire in the offseason and that the offense will be "staggeringly" improved.

    I agree. It will be like that time babushka had to bring his sippy cup to the kids table to make room for uncle Jeff.

    He'll have cupcakes on the sideline at the Auburn game.

    I am just thankful that the ESPN people talk about the UW at all.
