Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
The guys picked the right year to make like a tree and leaf

The undercurrent of hostility towards recruiting grows with each loss
And yet because I am a fair person Washington 2.0 was not this year. In the grand tradition of Husky football it is next year or the year after. Now also to be fair, if the higher ranked recruits are going to lead us to the promised land it wouldn't have been this year.
However as Sven points out, does Petersen need 5 more years to get rid of the guys he has spent 5 years bringing here.
There seems to be a talent gap between what was left and did goo d in 2016 and what is here doing bad in 18 and 19
Can we trust the evaluation?
Can we get rid of the poor actual coaching for some units?
There are exceptions to the its the head coach iron law. A very good head coach that is challenged in some areas can be helped to excel with the right assistants. We saw it when James hired Pinkel and Gilby
Mario apparently found a good DC at Oregon
Reilly hired the coog to save the Oklahoma defense.
Orgeon found an OC at LSU
tick tick tick

We got lucky on a lot of guys in the 13-15 classes, and we got unlucky on guys in the 16-17 classes. Anyone who thinks they are significantly better at evaluating talent than another school is full of shit, the best teams are only slightly better at it than the worst teams. The only way to be consistent is to recruit elite players at every single position every single year.
If fuck face was really an elite coach and we were really on the way (back?) to being a blue blood we would have reloaded and not fell on our dicks. Elite teams, that put a similar # of guys in the league as we did last year, go through this anally and don’t miss a beat.
We may never recruit top 5 classes every year but why not top 10 every year? We have been hovering around 15 so the talent is here.
We did fuck up with LB’s and DL but that’s not what’s causing this shit.
It’s Pete and how he runs his fucking program. On one end we know they develop the fuck out of talent but at the cost of not playing the young talent soon enough...
Guys are still too tight. Pete needs to back the fuck off, quit micro managing and allow this program to have some fucking fun.
Change may occur but at a fucking snails pace.
Prove me wrong peterman and make 2-3 significant changes to your staff. I fucking dare you.
Until then we always lose to cal and oregon and occasionally the furd.
FM.
Everyone seemed loose, even on the final drive. I was kind of out off by Henry Roberts and another player yucking it up during those times.
Omit that part if you like and the story still says the same thing = fuck peterman
Clemson has the experienced QB and better skill players and the institutional memory of winning that UW still lacks
Browning sucked but he was intense. Skinny is not. I think that plays into it a little bit, but again, I’m not really sure.
If Pete doesn’t fuck up in-game/game planning which he is good for multiple times a year we’ll be fine.
If I remember correctly, Washington was approaching midfield with around 4 minutes left. Somehow, when the drive failed at the 35, there was around 50 seconds on the clock. Even if PI is called, Peterman would have had some time pressure once they got into the red zone.
I understand that he was probably not wanting to give Oregon time after they scored, but there are flaws to this:
1) You aren't guaranteed to score, so why not use some urgency to get into the red zone first, then use some clock if you wish. Better to take your time when you're near the red zone, then having to rush things once when you're near it.
2) Brings me back to not guaranteed to score. Use some urgency, and if you get to a forth down near mid field, you may be able to punt with time left and your timeouts to get the ball back.
3) You're assuming Oregon is built to move quickly downfield. That is not the case. If Pete scored with even 1:20 or so on the clock, Oregon would have had a difficult time to get in position to tie. They have a slower methodical offense, plus they'd need to get inside the 20, because their kicking game is terrible.
The ineptitude in Pete's decision making on that final drive was astounding.
