number three ranking
Made and won Rose Bowl (one Pac 10 title)

no big wins...if you want to count Coug, ute, and Stanford, GTFO...
2-4 vs. whOregon

I am not seeing a huge difference right now

haie

Don't compare Petersen to anyone but his true master, David Shaw.

He's just like Shaw in every way except he has no rose bowl wins.

Petersen 2-4 vs Oregon
Lambright 2-4 vs Oregon

Lambright - 0 major bowl wins
Petersen - 0 major bowl wins

Pete does have a legit #4 finish and playoff appearance. Everything else is meh and highlighted by frustratingly close losses in big games.

I think Pete has the potential to get thinks back to 2016ish levels. The recruiting is promising. But he needs to win a big game and win it badly. He needs to win whatever trash bowl game we end up in this year to get to 2-4 in bowl games...

Lambo was just a blown coverage and a tie away from 2 Pac-10 championships.

Lambo inherited a dinged up Lamborghini and @Dennis_DeYoung ’d it. Ricky took over a program that was still nationally relevant within the past few seasons. Pete took a program that hadn’t been relevant in 15 years and made it so.

Close losses in big games? He had no chance against Penn State and Ohio State. Absolutely none.

Or Alabama.

Rick is still the best HC UW has had since James.

LebamDawg

Pete 68.42%
Rick 67.35%

but rick never played FCS teams and won an RB

ThomasFremont

Only win % that matters is the fucking Rose Bowl.

Win one and then POP OFF.

Wouldn't mind having Petersen run the team Sunday-Friday, and Neu take over on Saturdays

I’m not as concerned with the big games. We gotta get there first. The intensity has dropped with the OKG’s. I was at the Oregon game and it seemed like a really high level scrimmage when in reality, it was probably the game to win the North.

This is the only accurate comp in this thread. A slow decline, playing not to lose, and a team without the big dick energy needed to win it all.

@sonics1993 great locker room with bunch a kids that are docile and don’t have an edge, but a great locker room right?

Shit comparison imo.

Neu could and did win big games, which Petersen can't and hasn't.

Petersen's recruiting is good and trending strongly upward. Neu had one or two OK classes, not good, and was trending downward.

Those are the two primary differences. There are plenty of others. Petersen is way, way better overall and the floor going forward is what we see right now. The ceiling is undetermined in spite of the sad current state of things and total loss of fan confidence.

Neu had a much lower floor. The team was far worse when he was fired than it is right now and looked to be on its way to getting worse. His ceiling could be looked at as higher, since he did win big games, but he has shown an inability to manage a program well enough to reach that ceiling with his own players.

I disagree that they don't have a edge, Just because they aren't up in people's faces doesn't mean they don't play tough bit go ahead and make your assumptions. The truth is they just don't have veteran talent at some key positions (ILB, DL and WR). Really not that hard to comprehend.

On player on the team that plays with an edge is Myles Bryant
