    If Pete comes back it will be for a much better job...

    It's so obvious Jimmy isn't the guy but there's no way Jen gets rid of him even with a winless season... We're fucked for years to come now.

    If Pete came back to UW the entire fanbase would worship him. He would be playing with house money and get to do whatever he wanted. Coming back to UW would be perfect for a guy who seems to not really want to play in the mud that is big boy college recruiting, etc. The only easier option for him would be Boise.
    Pete hates to lose - he left Boise after one average 8 win season and left Washington as soon as we slid to an 8 win season. I can see him being tempted to return if it's a job where he can win national championship but that's it. Maybe he'll reconsider USC...
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^
    This,
    CP has shown his MO 2wice..
    He gone.
    Something inside UW soured his drive
    He won't move backwards
    His eyes are on an SEC or B1G job if he goes back on the sideline.
    USC maybe if they come calling.
    Natty or bust!

    I'm afraid you're right.

    Sure we all care about winning but I don't think upper campus gives a shit.

    It will take $$ drying up and that will take some time.

    Pete’s not the answer.

    Pea Patch. Stat.

    Hell if you want you can name it the Pete Patch.

    I disagree after 20 years of this shit, he was the lone bright spot. With adequate support from upper campus he can get it back on track.
    Unless you are getting Kyle Whittingham anytime soon.
    Sure, I'd love to have Pete back. But there's no chance in hell he has any desire to jump back into the meat grinder. Especially now that he's had a taste of the good life.
    This. I take Pete at his word that he was done competitively. Why would I hire a guy who lost the desire? Pete isn't Urbs. This isn't a heart condition gambit. Pete really lost the fire. A guy like that can't just flip the switch back on. A 100% Pete isn't walking through that door. I will grant a 50% Pete is better than Lake, but it's all shit at this point. It's over.
    Somewhat of a catch 22 since if Pete walked back through that door I'd infer that he got his fire back. But yeah, it's not fucking happening.
    I'd think they backed the Brinks truck up and he still didn't have the fire for this, but took the money anyway.

    I only wanted mediocre, not this shitshow. Jimmy ain’t lasting past this year at this point.
