    I remember that there were many seasons under James, all seasons under Lambo, and 2/3 under RN that weren't any better (and worse in many cases) than Petersen's last year at UW. I'm all for hating Pete for saddling himself with a shitty offense, for not being motivated for a winnable Rose Bowl, and for quitting. I can't get on board with treating his last season like some kind of epic, unprecedented failure..

    I would have fired Don James.

    And 2019 was an epic failure but not unprecedented

    This is close to Don James never played a ranked Arizona even though they were ranked in 92. A game I remember as well

    Arizona was ranked in 1990 when we beat them 54-10

    UW has never had the talent before or since that they had then

    Relative to the time those Husky teams would compete and win their share against Bama and Clemson today

    James changed the evaluation and the bag men really stepped up. It showed
