So an OKG pussed out and skipped the Rose Bowl to avoid injury
Pete doesn't take risks on guys with questionable decision making, or guys with poor grades, or guys from risky families. Don James would have taken those guys, if they were athletes and winners, but not Pete.
Don James would take them, and make them into a team.
Pete doesn't want to work that hard. He only wants the guys that are model citizens. Prudent decision makers. Guys that keep their emotion under check.
Should we really be surprised that a prudent decision maker chose to avoid the risk of playing in the Rose Bowl? He looked at the risk and reward. He made the prudent choice. He made an OKG choice.

Pressing.

It's an issue that is really bothering people. Or at the very least, it is making them THINK and CARE.biak1 said:Pressing.

Of course it’s bothering people. It feels like that’s a game we could’ve/should’ve won. Everybody’s pissed or dejected. We are Husky fans it’s what we know.
Still a pressing take though. -
I don’t care if a guy sits out a bowl game outside of the playoff. The college football playoff has made all other bowls, including the Major bowl games when the games are not in the current playoff year rotation utterly worthless. Make the playoff or GTFO.

Just don't lie TO OUR FACES about why you couldn't play. That's my gripe. Take the criticism like a man.greenblood said:I don’t care if a guy sits out a bowl game outside of the playoff.

People who understand the game and the business, appreciate the honesty. These people also understand and support the decision.
I also don’t mind these guys sitting out also being able to make the trip. The bowl game is a “reward” for the regular season, which the player contributed to. So be adults and let the kid do all the fun stuff and let him sit if he wants. -
Is the only source for this still just second hand story from 2 retired gladiator legends who got liquored up in front of some wide-eyed fans and talked about how tough you had to be back in their day? And a mom who may have just been repeating that?BleachedAnusDawg said:
