I agree with everyone who says "Jen will not fire Pete anytime soon so let's hope he evolves." This is correct. Jen isn't doing shit with Pete. I do not agree with "We can't get anyone better so let's hope Pete evolves." Sure, we can't probably get a better known commodity to come here, but who is to say we can't find better? Pete's ceiling is a CFP berth where we get manhandled with Tedford, or getting ass pounded in NY6 games without him.
We have had 6 years with him. To me the ceiling of the program should not be to win a shitty Pac 12 and then get throttled by any big boy program in the land. I have higher standards than that.
So sure, I agree Jen isn't going to shitcan him so I guess let's all just hope he makes some changes and evolves. Hope is a terrible strategy of course, but in my perfect world we would cut bait and try again with someone else. I find it very unlikely Pete ever wins a NC at UW. That is the standard. He's too stubborn to change enough of his approach to do it imo. I hope I'm wrong. I rarely am.
How and why is winning a Natty the standard at UW?

I sometimes forget Cuogs have trouble understanding standards.

They could get to 8-0 this week and finish 8-4 which is such a Gopher thing to do.
When the planets and the schedule align they often get off to a hot start only to crash when the real teams show up
One thing different this year is that they actually beat classy Nebraska who suck but still
