    Only 20 percentage points behind the Bucks

    Too bad Petersen didn't realize winning the Rose Bowl would help recruiting against them

    Rapp wanted us to not stray too far from our roots and keep getting underrated, tuff 3 star kids.

    Pick a year! @YellowSnow

    What website is this you're screenshotting @Canadawg?
    I’m a fan of Stassen ( http://football.stassen.com/records/compute-request.html ) and his old school database. No fancy schmancy user interface, but tons of info on his site. In addition to ‘wins since’ there are consensus rankings for every year and then a ranking at the end of each year to see who sucks the worst at predictions and a bunch of other good stuff.

    Here’s the table since the invention of football, but he’ll let you go back to 1869 for some reason. Really puts things in perspective. For all the sadness in this thread you’d think this was HardcoreHokie.

    The situation isn't what it should be but with how much CFB is changing a 5-6 window is most relevant, and we are basically Northwestern/MSU/Wisconsin during that time. We need to be able to compete with tOSU in recruiting, and we aren't. It needs to get fixed.

    Not ideal, but the "it's dead" stuff is hyperbolic.

    The main thing that has let everyone down is the coach who began building and then quit abruptly. And that's not on UW, that's on him, and the unspoken thing is that like Chip, he's just not a good coach once defenses figure out his offense.

    Like has been hinted here, the defense is great and innovative (susceptible to certain positions bottoming out, yes) and Lake was the man behind that, which is why that decision was made in 2019. Along with the elevated DB recruiting since 2014

    Since we aren’t going to try and win, I’ll be blunt. I like Jimmy Lake as a #WhoCares coach. He’s bright, friendly, fits the Suit and won’t do anything to embarrass the team or the school. Wouldn’t mind seeing him at UW for the next 30 years.

    Fancy coffee, boating to work, and repping some cool kicks! What’s not to like?

    Petersen as an organizer and leader is substantially better than Chip. People actually like Petersen.

    Chip’s innovating days are over and he now sucks.

    I said when He was hired at UCLA that Chip Kelly would suck there. @RaceBannon remembers.

    Chips Oregon teams however were all Better than any of Pete’s teams. And it wasn’t close.
