Are you satisfied with the Petersen hire?

Absolutely yesThe only wholes to fill are the lines which are in terrible shape.
BCS game in three years is acceptable. As the groupies here say, "Anything less ass out." -
Yes, but there's a limit to my patienceI didn't know he was 92 and 12. That's very impressive no matter the level. He needs to have some 7-2, 8-1 type seasons in the first two yrs. though.
-
Absolutely yesHe almost beat DeRuyter as Fresno this year with probably his shittiest team while at BSU. Sark would have won 3 or 4 games in that conference with that team it was so awful.
The Sark plunger makes me a little nervous but Steve knew he had to win that game. First game brand new stadium, have a defense advantage with Wilcox knowing Petersen inside and out, against one of their worst teams in a long time. -

Chris is walking into a better situation than the first 2 guys. So we should expect to win.
I'd rather have had a hire who proved himself at 2 different schools first. Urban Meyer...Bryan Kelly are 2 recent examples of what I'm talking about.
What is interesting about those numbers is that Chris, I feel I can cal hi Chris now, won 40 more games than Hawk, and 70 more games than Dirk with the same number of losses. I think that is a major difference. Longevity and a far better winning percentage.
We always expect to win. No one will be harder on Petersen than us -
Absolutely yes
There is very little comparison to those other coaches. The best Boise did was finish 13 in SRS (pre- CP). CP finished #13 or better in 5 of his first 6 seasons. CP was way better than those guys at Boise. Those other guys rated fairly mediocre upon closer look.priapism said:The Energetic Dirk Koetter:

Completely agree. Their resume aren't even remotely close to Petersens who has shown results on the national stage. He is the only one of that group that shows he could be lethal with the resources of a big time program.HeretoBeatmyChest said:

He could end up being another flop in the BSU line but I feel good about our chances just watching random Boise State games throughout the years. He is a proven offensive mind. -
Absolutely yesIt took me some time to come around on Petersen, and the CBS Sports Interview was alarming, although y'all made some good points that most of these uber successful coaches hate the fucking media and have trouble with 'em anyways. I concur. I just hope he doesn't get burnt out on this job and his performance suffers accordingly.
With that being said and all things considered, this hire has to be considered a homerun.
Damn near no one could pry this guy away from Boise St., and the fact that UW did, will be perceived extremely well, which is a big part of this whole thing, whether we like it or not.
I was initially hesitant because of how his predecessors fared after they left BSU. But when you dig into it and look at his resume, the numbers are pretty staggering:
- 92-12; .885% winning percentage
- 5-2 Bowl games; 2-0 in BCS bowl games
- 4 WAC Champs, 1 MTN West
- 2-0 vs 0regon GFY
- 18 NFL draft selections; 4 1st rounders
- 2 Bear Bryant Awards; 1 Bobby Dodd
I don't think there's any question that he can coach. He went down to the Fiesta Bowl his 1st year of being a HC and schooled Bob Stoops. Now THAT, sports fans, is fucking impressive.
But like any hire, there's always some risk. You can never be 100% certain a coach is going to be a good fit (Unless his name is Urban Meyer), and only time will tell.
The AD proved me wrong and I'm glad he did. I thought he was going to botch it. Well done.
I'm excited about Husky football again because I do think this is a great hire and a good fit for the program.
Petersen seems like a genuine person. It's going to be very refreshing having Petersen representing UW, leading our team, instead of having some bullshit artist lead the program, who was an embarrassment to the university.
Here's to Petersen's continued success at UW.
Cheers, you fukin lunatics.

Yes, but there's a limit to my patienceI think the Koetter Hawkins comparison is unfair. Over his time Petersen accomplished much more than either of them and was really the brains behind hawkins
-
Absolutely yes
THIS. From my understanding he was the Chip Kelly running the show and they were riding his coat tails.dhdawg said:I think the Koetter Hawkins comparison is unfair. Over his time Petersen accomplished much more than either of them and was really the brains behind hawkins
Time will tell if that is true. I think Petersen just like that is arguably the best coach in our division(him or Shaw). While with Sark he was in the Riley/Leach tier and probably below Sling Blade. -
Absolutely yesWe could have resurrected Gil Dobie and there would be a limit to my patience. Any coach would have to produce.
But this was a fantastic hire for UW. -
Absolutely yes
I wouldn't go that far but he is in the same conversation as Mora, Shaw, and Graham. He just has to field results now.He_Needs_More_Time said:

I said DIVISION not conference. Meaning the competition is Dykes, Riley, Leach, Sling Blade and Shaw.CuntWaffle said:

Wtf? Most dipshitted thing ive ever heard. Do you know any coach that comes with a rose bowl guarantee you son of a cunt? Get lost bitch, right on back to dawvman where you came from. Stupid fucking doog.dhdawg said:I love the hire, but I need to see it play out on the field before I'm 100% sold

Absolutely yesThe reason I come to this place is to copy PL_SS poasts and expand my vulgar vocabulary and earn some brownie points in front of my buddies.
-
Yes, but there's a limit to my patienceNice to see that the staff woke PL-SS up today
-
Absolutely yesI really don't care about win/loses, this is what I want to see.
Within 2 years - Win Pac 12 North, in the top 25.
Within 3 years - Win Pac 12, in the top 15
Within 4 years - Win Rose Bowl or other Major Bowl….BCS bowls will be gone….in the top 5.
National Championships take a lot of things to come together at the right time, but we certainly should be in the discussion often post year 4.

Absolutely yesUnder the circumstances, which has left much to be desired, I think this hire is a home run. While as fans we wanted a bigger name, we must not forget what UW has become - a coaching cesspool where as late as last night many here feared we were going to get another intern. Just earlier this week, Mora turned down the UW. What may other candidates thought if Mora didn't want it?
With Petersen, we have improved the prospects of returning to elite status. I believe he will build a strong and vibrant program that will have top candidates clamoring to replace him when he retires.
I felt almost devastated when Mora turned UW down, in what feels like the longest non-game week in a long time. Now, I am more optimistic than I've been since I can't remember when. Perfect? Not close. But, it may prove excellent.
Well done, Mr. Woodward. -

Wait, why am I saying 'wow'?

Lets see if Graham can get ASU to contend regularly. Very impressive so far but they have like 15 senior starters and ASU has been losing in-state talent repeatedly. Lets see where Graham and Shaw are in 2-3 years. If we bring in top 20 classes every year then I definitely expect to be better than ASU & Stanford. Here is how I'd rate the current coaches:CuntWaffle said:

Yes, but there's a limit to my patienceThis is the first time since Neuheisel that I've actually felt like we now have a coach who can meet or exceed my expectations for UW football:
- Compete for the Pac-12 title (not just the north division) every year
- Win the Pac-12 (not just the north) at least three times a decade
- Compete for a national title at least once a decade

About a month ago when my buddies were taking a long time to get ready before we went out to some bars I asked them, "Are we going to sit around and burn the midnight cock oil all night or are we going to get drunk?" Without PL_SS I would have never said that.
