Jimmy got a raise that was higher than the salaries of most of our coaches.It pays to be a great coach, coordinator and recruiter.

One of my biggest complaints about Petermen is that he seems to be too patient with his assistants. He kept Pease and Strauser too long and now doing the same with PowPow and Gregory.
Don't get the Junior Adams hate. He swiped Puka on short notice. Not going to crown him yet but LIPO.

Went to check on where Pease is now and I LOL'd at this line from Pease's wiki:On December 17, 2013, Pease was hired by Chris Petersen at the University of Washington to be the wide receivers coach. In the wake of a disappointing season by the receiver corps - who had dropped many passes, albeit more were caught - Pease was dismissed on December 4, 2015.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brent_Pease

This narrative has some validity but doesnt really apply to Gregory. The LBs have been good since he arrived, and HH nemesis turned favorite BBK showed remarkable improvement. LB recruiting has also picked up. Calvert was a big pickup, Sirmon is solid, and even though Malloe was a big driver behind the poly recruits, they still have to resepect the LB coach to commit. Give the SC Coordinator gig to someone else, though.Paopao is interesting too, because we have had great TEs. We really have, there is no arguing that Perkins, Dissly, Sample, Bryant, Daniels haven't been legit players. Otton, Culp, and Kizer look promising too. He does need to land higher tier recruits.Basically, tldr is that these coaches, while lagging behind some of our other assistants, are still producing good players. Honestly, what has Bush done? The offense needs to produce this year or he needs to GTFO. Our playcalling sucked worse last year than it did in 2017, which is pathetic. We choked away a easily winnable game in SEC country vs Auburn...a win there totally changes the perception of our program and conference. Instead we committed suicide via read option. The Cal game...nuff said. Bush is the worst of our coaches.

Deep thoughts with PGOS.Coaches are good enough dontchaknow we have to chose between a good coach and a good recruiter we can't have both.The playcalling is bad if it isn't working and good if it is working.
Don't get the Junior Adams hate. He swiped Puka on short notice. Not going to crown him yet but LIPO. Ikaika/Poly movement got us Puka just like he/it got us Buelow, Kalepo, Fautanu, Tuitele, Bandes, Ngalu, Pa'ama, Latu, Hammer, Tuputala and Ah You.We'll know whether Junior can recruit this year because he goes up against big boys. We know Bush tapped out early this year with Garbers. We gave up on Jay Butterfield and now Oregon's going to snag him because they know they're losing DJU.Johnny Wilson's been CB'ed to the Ducks recently... Junior is in pole position on a lot of guys, but we'll see if he can come from ahead to win.

I don't disagree the Poly connection helped but he still got him to sign, period. We will see how he does in this critical WR recruiting class.
