The people who like Petersen the most tend to not like the Jimmy hire the most
The people who don't like Petersen the most tend to like the Jimmy hire
Petersen demoted his DC to keep Jimmy and then all but hired himself to succeed him
He is a Petersen recruit
I should hate him.

But what's gone completely unsaid on this site is that after 2019 most of the good seniors/juniors dipped after the Vegas bowl.
After 2020 Jimmy got all of his guys to stay.
We're a veteran team this year. Fuck ESPN and the limp dick Pac media, there's no excuse for Washington not to roll.
The 2019 team was pretty upper class heavy... issue was the majority of them had zilch for talent, lacked prototypical athletic traits and seemingly didn't care whether they won or lost.
Kyler Manu, Brandon Wellington, Andre Bashitti and many more come to mind.
But I still acknowledge that it's not fubar. Gotta start by winning, I guess, and that can still happen.
Bachellia was a good role player, Fuller was a #3-4 receiver in 2018. They were forced into primary roles because modern college football passed Pete by. The high level guys he quit over having to recruit should have been in those primary roles. What a fucked up year.
Yella doesn’t fire guys over lack of off season natties or from Covid cordwood piling up.
I'm going to again disagree with everyone about last year's games "not counting." It was football. The better prepared teams with the better gameplans won. I judge a coach based off how well their team performs relative to the talent on hand. That was a for-win roster that struggled HARD to win three. They were real football games that really counted, and it was at best a C- grade from the staff. To me, THAT'S the disturbing trend.
If winning 11 games, leading to improved recruiting, is your path to optimism, you weren't watching in 2020, when actual, honest to god football was being played. I agree this is probably the most complete overall roster in the conference (linebacker depth aside), which is why I'm going to be so pissed when they lose four or five games.
Quite honestly I don't know who we played other than losing to Stanford in the Bellevue Square parking lot. It would be worse if Petersen didn't always lose to Stanford. And Cal. And go 2-4 against Oregon. And have Jen tell the Scoducks to Rep the North. Shitshow and Ohio State was in the playoffs and stole our girlfriends.
Kids that don't want to get the fuck out of the west don't have UW #1 on the list right now. Jimmy has to change that. I don't know anyway other to do that than just win baby. Turn those frowns upside down. I don't get how 8-5 wasn't that bad but 3-1 was horrible. UW has been on the upside of mediocre since the USC game in 2016. But still mediocre.
He still has to perform no matter how many excuses I appear to be making for him. Call it context or the crux of the discussion going on here while we wait to lose to Michigan and all agree again that Coach fill in the blank needs to be fired.
Everyone is right that the only path forward that isn't depressing is winning and regaining confidence in the program, but while some think it will happen Because Roster, I'm saying there is plenty of evidence suggesting it won't. Regardless of roster and scheduling advantages.
