I listened last night. Thanks for podding gentlemen. It's taking me a while to crawl out of my despair. First trip to the bored, It's hard.

Most poasters keep a few Boysee guys in their desk drawer. Pretty common really, not a big deal.DerekJohnson said:
I wish I had Boysee guys. Must be cool.GrundleStiltzkin said:
I don't know what it means for us(?), but the 2012 & 2013 drop off coincided with loss of Kellen Moore and the hiring of Robert Prince as OC. My Boysee guys hated Prince. If remember right, Prince's mandate was to copy the Nevada offense, but without #MyKap. Maybe the takeaway is that Pete isn't good at selecting QBs and OCs.Squirt said:6. Your critiques of UW's multiple offense are fair.
Of course, the offense's complexity is not the cause of Jake Browning throwing ducks, shitting his pants, bailing from the pocket, and throwing to defensive linemen. The OL repeatedly blocking the wrong guy has nothing to do with the complicated motions, formations, and route changes. The offense's complexity isn't what's holding back Jordan Chin and Andre Baccellia.
The offense's problems stem at least in part from the recruiting misses at OL, WR, and QB, as you rightly pointed out. You're right there is a talent problem.
But I was ready to crap all over your broader argument about Pete's multiple offense. I mean, Dante Pettis and John Ross thrived and made Jake Browning into a Heisman contender!
Then I checked the stats. Fuck, Coker is right about Boise State's slide. Boise State's scoring offense went from 1st in the country in 2009, 2nd in 2010, and 5th in 2011, to 54th in 2012 and 22nd in 2013.
I'm hoping it's just a talent thing. -

DDY is right. We're already 0-3, so 7-5 would be a great turnaround.Tequilla said:7-5 is “possible” but unlikely
I’m a bit in LIPO mode as I think this weekend tells us a lot. That being said we’ve played our toughest road games of the year already and I dont see a lot of threats in the conference to score in the high 20s on our defense.
The reality is the offense should get better during the season ... LIPO
But only with Haener at QB.
I've seen this Brownsox shit-movie before, 3 years in a row, so I know the fucking ending already. Bring on 2019. -
Now you know how it feels to be a HUSKY!!!89ute said:I listened last night. Thanks for podding gentlemen. It's taking me a while to crawl out of my despair. First trip to the bored, It's hard.

I actually think it's a man-of-small-stature situation. Guys like Pete are all in on the David vs. Goliath story, where the only way the smaller guy can win is to outsmart the bigger guy, because they are small guys themselves. So, just like Smiffy, Pete still favors deception and trickery way too much, when just an average OL would do just fine with his talent pool.Squirt said:6.

He's basically over-thinking the situations until the point that his downsy QB makes a costly mistake, and all the opposing teams have to do is pin their ears back, bring pressure, and wait for the offensive collapse from far too complicated play call. The prime example were the diarrhea-filled screen passes against Utah. -

This forum is all too familiar with inexplicably horrifying, back-breaking losses. You should make a separate thread, I am curious your thoughts on your offense, your quarterback, and a few other things.89ute said:I listened last night. Thanks for podding gentlemen.
