    "Change the culture"
    I thought SuperSteve already changed the culture?
    We must be the most culturally challenged program in the NCAA.
    Can't wait for the UW's "culture" to be known for winning a truckload of games every year.

    Hi there.

    We are multicultural.

    Hope that helps.

    I am a huge fan of redshirting. I agree with it being bypassed very selectively, but I would not have put in a guy like Shelton or Farria or Mathis, and for sure not a Kohler or any of the other OL/DL guys who had their RS year burned by Sark, not to mention guys like Kevin Smith.

    Out of this class, only Budda Baker probably is someone who you'd have to play, and even then, I wish Coach Pete would RS him too, and build the team for the long run. Husky football would be so much stronger if he did. Maybe we lose one game more in 2014 because of it, but that is the new staff's first year, and we'd forget about it when we became more dominant in 2015/16/17/18 as a result.

    On position moves, to support guys redshirting, I for sure would love to see Shirley tried at LB and Thompson at SS. It might not work, but it is worth a shot to put our experienced guys in positions of need, and that combination might help.

    On O, there are fewer options to be creative, but doing something with Kendyl Taylor and Darrell Daniels makes sense in terms of position changes. With Kasen Williams not ready for spring, they can use that time for experimenting, and with a new coaching staff, everyone can get a fresh start.

    What a fucking horrible article. Does this guy even know what he's talking about? We have a few holes, but replace a couple names and this article could be talking about when Tyrone left. Either that or he's a doog in disguise already trying to lower expectations.
  • GlobalGlobal Member Posts: 333
    The biggest issue is that three of our four top skill players on O need to be replaced. Price, Sankey and ASJ go, and we do not yet know how Kasen will do on his return. While change in college football is an annual affair, that is a lot of change at one time.

    But it surprises me that more of this kind of guy don't see the coaching change as a major plus, and luckily we also get a smooth start to 4-0 and then get a great start to the PAC-12 play with a home game against Stanford.

    Not worried about losing ASJ. Petersen doesn't rely on the TE as much as Sark did. Plus assuming that everything goes well the ability to put 6'2 Williams, 6'3 Stringfellow and then speedy Ross, Mickens, Hall on the field is enough star power for anyone. We're fine.

    Losing Sankey hurts but not as much as people think. Say hello to Lavon Coleman folks, 215lbs of hard to stop RB to go along with D.Wash, Callier, Cooper and McDaniel. RB is fine....we're deep.

    Price going is going to hurt because other than Miles we have no idea what he have at QB. Troy Williams could be the next thing or Lindquist but we don't know because we haven't seen much. Spring/Summer ball will show us soon enough. I think we will field a capable QB because the battle is going to be intense.

    The key for this team is going to be defense. Farria shouldn't have played last year because 240lbs on a 6'5 frame just isn't going to get it done. Mathis looked like a true Frosh adjusting to the speed and physicality of the next level. On one hand I like that they played because they understand the level of strength, stamina and technique that is going to be needed. It's time to see if they've put in the off-season work.

    The culture that I expect to see is one that strives for perfection. No more sloppy games with multiple blown coverages and penalties. That's the first step in the right direction.

    As it stands now, doogs are claiming 9 wins minimum or Peterman has underachieved

    I agree with this. I see this team as a 10-win team.

    Like Sark did when he took over?

    Sark said whatever he thought people wanted to hear.

    I was speaking to your unrealistic expectations, not something Sark may have said.

    Cute emotion filled graphic of your opinion.

    Sark changed the culture, Peterman just has to sustain it. Woof!!

    I was speaking to your unrealistic expectations, not something Sark may have said.

    Hawaii on the road - expected Win = 1-0
    EWU at Home - expected Win = 2-0
    Illinois at Home - expected Win = 3-0
    G. State at Home- expected Win = 4-0
    Stanford at Home- expected Win = 5-0 (I expect them to win)
    California on the road - expected Win = 6-0
    Oregon on the road - expected Loss = 6-1
    ASU at Home - expected Win = 7-1 (ASU Defense needs rebuilding)
    Colorado on the road - expected Win = 8-1
    UCLA at Home- expected Loss = 8-2
    Arizona on the road - expected Loss = 8-3
    OSU at Home - expected Win = 9-3
    WSU on the road - expected Win = 10-3


    I don't find this unrealistic. There could always be the unexpected loss but there also could be the unexpected win.
    As it stands the two toughest games are Oregon at Autzen and UCLA at home since we historically have played poorly
    against UCLA

    This. 10-3 is very realistic. Right now, I predict the same as you for all the games. Stanford, @Oregon, ASU, UCLA, @Arizona. Those games will decide the season. Sark probably would have went 1-4 in them.

    Coach, who doesn't say much about anything highlights the need of 'culture' change.

    5th year senior starting QB... gone

    NFL TE...... gone

    NFL RB ........ gone.

    Projected starting QB suspended

    Starting WR suspended.

    Why no Natty talk?
