This recruiting class and how it has played out is watching the Titanic hit the iceberg … it’s not going to sink immediately but it’s taking on water and it’s a race against time to see if someone can bail everybody outBeerThirty said:
The wheels are about to fall off. What we do this year won't stop that. Two piss poor recruiting classes in a row and a staff that doesn't belong at William & Mary (first school that popped into my head) let alone Washington will show up soon. People can "LIPO" all they want. It will happen.DerekJohnson said:

It’s fair to keep an open mindDerekJohnson said:I'm pessimistic but trying to keep an open mind until the end of this season and the next recruiting cycle.
On the field they should be good this year … anything in the 8-4 range sends the alarm bells into a full scale alert of the highest levels
It’s one thing to me if we got our targets and the stars weren’t where you’d like them
But we’re seeing significant numbers of decommits AND whiffing on many of our top targets (particularly some that should be layups
The biggest worry is likely to come when we see heavy attrition in the off-season … that has the chance to topple the house of cards Jimmy is presiding over
I reuse to panic over the future until after the season
With Jimmy it’s LIPO despite that the WINNERS WIN mantra has been punished in recruiting
I suppose my hope is that we steamroll the Pac-12 this year and then Jimmy gets a couple big signees and the staff starts trying harder and we see gains and seed momentum. That's a lot to hope for but it's where I'm at. -

K had enough sway to check Jimmy and I’m pretty sure reading between the lines that he got pushed out the door
Your reading between the lines shit seems fictional to me. -

The move never made sense to me
K struck me as someone that wasn’t going to look as long as he didn’t have a reason to do so
The pay raise I suspect was as much an overpay to tilt him leaving over the line … gave him the blank check and he wrote in the number
Said differently … could you ever see K leaving if Pete was still the coach? -
when (if) we have a good season, that will just be the band playing their instruments on the deckTequilla said:

And Petersen hand picked Jimmy to succeed him as head coach
Doesn't fit your narrative -
K offered to take a demotion to retain Jimmy in staff
K has never expressed any interest in being a HC
My suspicion is that upon being the HC the relationship between Jimmy and K turned for the worse
K was given an offer he couldn’t refuse … which is probably also the first time he’s put himself out there as open to considering offers
But I’m sure I don’t know anything … never seem to -
Basically just like DJ and Lambo.RaceBannon said:

HCs, even great ones, are terrible at evaluating who would make a great HC.
And Petersen wasn't a great one. -
