Would Petersen have landed JTT?

DerekJohnson

Not a rhetorical question

HoustonHusky

Yes

godawgst

No

GrundleStiltzkin

79smoothdawg

Yes

FireCohen

Yes, according to some. The moment he decided to retire we lost that recruitment

bananasnblondes

We likely get Emeka, JTT, Franklin, and Kellen Moore as OC if Petersen stayed. Also Gregory and Boner gone

FireCohen

But Pete did lose the fire so the program would still be shiet

RaceBannon

No

We still quit last year and he's a quitter before that

Quitters never win. Winners never quit

rodmansrage

no clue but itll be special when we? merge (get acquired?) by the B1G and have to play against JTT and Emeka.


just think of the fox pregame show now 'two seattle kids heading home to play against the hometown dawgs!'



not a dry eye in the house as we? lose by over 9000.

Agree except on Moore. We weren't outpaying the Cowboys in any situation.

Coming off of 8 - 5, PAC quitting last year, and the overall outlook of the conference, I'm gonna say NO.

And Moore was never going to leave Dallas. He's the next head coach as long as they put up points.

@stalin where is the poll?!

RaceBannon

If Pete were still coach

The pandemic is a hard thing to navigate as a coach. I'm not sure if what we are doing is that important

It's hard to recruit in a pandemic. I'm not sure if what we are doing is that important

Expanding the playoffs is hard. I'm not sure if that type of win at all costs mentality is right

College football realignment is hard. I'm not sure we want to go there

You guys talk about 8-5 like its 5-8 or worse. They still closed a good recruiting class that year. Stsffs that recruit well do so after bad years too. Oregon just went through a couple of bad years but Taggart and meat head both brought in good classes in the midst of it.

The perception outside of this place was that UW had a down year but it was just that, not a disaster. Then Petersen left, then Lake made boring hires, then recruiting went to shit.

So...maybe. I think UW probably gets JTT and Egbuka if Petersen hadn't quit.

RaceBannon

If Lake goes 8 and 5 everyone will want him fired

BleachedAnusDawg

8 and 5 is Aloha Bowl status, if that game still exists. Wholly unacceptable.

jerry does like taking mediocre OCs and making them HCs, he likes that.

i do think lincoln riley might get a call when he realizes he cant waltz thru the sec like hid in the b12.

Yes, but that's beside the point. I'm not evaluating or comparing them or talking about what's fair. I'm just saying that the effect of 8-5 on recruiting would have been pretty minimal if nothing else had changed.

I agree on that point but the world stopped soon after Pete departed

Would the continuity have helped if Petersen had stayed? Yes

Would the damage of the not playing rep the north ducks DAWGS against playoff bound tOSU hurt still? Yes

And this is a hypothetical and we don't do them
