    Our D sucked this year because we didn't have a true, two-gap defensive lineman to run a 3-4/2-5 or whatever you want to call it. From when Petersen got here our defense was built around dominant two-gap defensive lineman in Danny Shelton, Greg Gaines, and Vita Vea. Those guys had a supporting cast of players like Elijah Qualls, Jaylen Johnson, Damion Turpin, Benning Potoae and Levi.

    Compare Shelton, Gaines or Vea to Sam Taimani, the guy who was forced to assume the role when Tuli went down, and you can understand why we had such a drop off last year.

    Our defense is predicated on being able to stop the run the with two interior defensive lineman. The BUCK then sets one edge to the wide side of the field(most of the time) and the WIL backer is tasked with covering the edge on the weak side of the field. Combine Taimani's inability to hold his ground on the inside with ZTF's inability to hold the edge on the outside and your defense is going to be fucked.

    Good insight. ZTF got blown out a few times on edge. Latu is likely a better run defender on the other side next year.

    Massive AD incompetence and internal drama notwithstanding, the team is pretty loaded and set to run a train on this shitpile of a G5 conference. No excuses.

    Nah even in the unlikely event of a great season it will just be Helfrich/Coker.

    Jimmy will be a failure here, that much is perfectly clear.
    It really is too soon to say that

    I mean the odds are heavy in your favor but still he's had 4 games

    The recruiting angst and assistant angst is quite common really. Every coach here gets it

    We? suck. UW lucked into Sark leaving and lucked into hiring Pete who had a magical 3 year run that’s as good as the Mariners magical 95 season. Pete being here was fools gold. All signs point to Jimmy regressing the program back to Sark levels but UW will never fire him or put any pressure on him.

    @Swaye, is there room on the Georgia bandwagon for a fat guy who loves nachos?
