Petersen needs to relinquish coaching special teams. Why the fuck can't he recruit a reliable place kicker and use a scholarship? Because he still acts like he is coaching in the fucking Mountain West where a couple trick plays per game compensated for the lack of attention to special teams? Doesn't cut in a power 5 conference. Not even close. I'm pissed to miss the shutout for a muffed fair catch punt return. By Chico? WTF? And this lost the opportunity for Haener and backups to get more reps. Does Petersen understand what it will take to get to, and win, in the CFP? Will he grow up, or has he too risen to his level of incompetence?
What a strange thing to bitch about. Henry sucked tonight, and our kickers prior to him were obviously shit. But I don’t see how Pete being heavily involved in ST has influenced that at all.

The inference, especially when compared to the Dawgfather, is the inattention to this important area. IMO it is Petersen's Achilles heal and an indication he has not embraced the realities of playing in a Power 5 conference. Petersen has put one QB into the NFL, but not a place kicker. James had several. And Power 5 conference/CFP games are more often determined by special teams play, especially place kicking, than by trick plays, which was how he pulled off the big upsets in bowel games while at Boise St. He needs to grow up his balls to the new reality.

Way too damn many.I thought he had high quality ST at Boise?
