The truth about Pete: He wants to be a team with inferior athletes that outsmarts everyone

Urban Meyer was a small time guy. Until he wasn’t. I know we got sky high expectations, but Pete was successful at UW to everyone outside of our fan base.RaceBannon said:I have no concern about Pete coaching again. He can go to Oregon
He's going to suck. Just like the rest of the Boise coaches
Small time guys dont work at big time jobs
The rest of the country isn’t nostalgic about 91. They don’t even remember 2000. They knew Ty and Sark. We were way better under Pete. 2 conference titles and a playoff appearance in 6 years at UW is considered doing a great job by everyone that doesn’t religiously follow UW. -

He's not Urban
He won't do shit if he coaches again
I dont give a fuck about perception -
I didn’t compare him to James. This is stupid tho.TurdBomber said:
We never had the kind of TE involvement in the offense, Pete's Toilet-Bowl worthy offense, or anything near what James had at LB or WR.RoadDawg55 said:
We had better talent with Pete than we have had since James. I don’t think it’s so black and white. You put Pete at a powerhouse and he’s going to do really well. He can be really picky at Texas or USC and he would build very good programs there.creepycoug said:It's not what he wants. It's what he knows how to do.
That's why he never won a game at UW as big as the win at Boise.
He's not a power house coach. He's Boise State coach.
They're different.
The truly great trams have talent. Watch the 30 4 30 about the U. First one. Everyone says it, just in a different way. Jimmy was blunt about it: "we were just so much better than a everyone else."
We are unfortunately a second tier program. He did well for awhile and fizzled out. I think he would be back on top of the conference, but we will never know.
I never heard James say "It's Hard," either. How anyone can compare any of Pete's NY6 Bowl teams to James's is laughable.
As others have said, Pete was good with over-achievers, and getting the best from what he had, but you can't build a team with over-achievers. You need studs at the key positions, and 2016 was the only year the team was stacked with bona-fide Pac12 players on both sides of the ball.
Pete deserves a Belotti award for putting the program on a solid footing and for two great recruiting classes in a row, but the in-game coaching comparisons with James are ridiculous. He wasn't even close to James.
How the fuck could you downplay 2016. We had sucked for 15 years and made the playoff. The reason the team was loaded was because of Pete recruiting and developing. -
I think we can all agree Peterman is an all time great and uw ruined him

Why do you continually fluff Pete like this, Roady? Who fucking cares what people outside the fanbase think?RoadDawg55 said:

2 Conference Titles during shit Pac12 years happened in context and at a time the rest of the country was deservedly laughing at the Pac12.
2016 was Pete's best team because of it's playmakers. 2019 was one of Pete's worst teams because of shitty coaching decisions, which prevented it from being an average to decent team, and cemented the ceiling of Pete's coaching ability: Good, but not Great. -
I had my frustrations with Pete, but he is a good coach that has won games. The yeah, but stuff (hehe butt stuff) is annoying because he won at UW. Making the playoff was big. Conference titles are big.TurdBomber said:

He wasn’t adverse to talent. A lot of talented guys played. Baccallia and Manu don’t disprove that. Playing them was a mistake but these grand assumptions about it have become a reality to some here and have skewed the truth. Young guys and freshman frequently played, including this year.
He didn’t win the big game and 2019 sucked. He made a lot of coaching errors and they hurt us. I don’t think it cemented anything and we never found out if it was a sign of things to come or just a bad year.
Pete is not the first coach to struggle in big games. Some break thru and some don’t. Typically the coaches that continually get there will win some of those games eventually. -
I'm judging him on his performance, not his potential. Maybe he gets there in 2020, maybe not. It's all academic now, but I was betting not because of his "they're great in practice" BS rationalizations for WRs who were lazy or couldn't catch the fucking ball when they tried while having guys like Bynum, Osborn and Spiker available. In year six, Pete was still searching for answers, and that's just too long to wait.RoadDawg55 said:

You used to call him "stubborn" for a reason, Roady, and you were right. I recall the "Just give the Fucking Ball to Gaskin" 2015 mantra that had most of our fanbase trying to figure out what the fuck Pete was thinking that year when all Myles was doing was carrying most of the offense by himself - when given the chance. Too many bizarre judgment calls, perhaps that helped maintain integrity and loyalty in the program, but that hurt the team's performance on the field. I like Pete, I think he's a decent coach, an honest guy and certainly trying his best to help his players on and off the field, but, at the end of the day, he was not a great coach or one that I believe would get UW up over the hump and back into the NC conversation again. Not after what I saw in 2019. -
I'll say this, Pete was twice the fucking coach Sark was. Pete's teams competed in every game except the NY6 Bowls. Sark's teams routinely got embarrassed and blown out on the road. They were a fucking embarrassment on the road against anyone with even average levels of talent. So, in that sense, Pete at least instilled pride and guts into a lot of players and raised the expectations bar when it was sorely needed.
