    Pretty clear from all we're hearing that adults are now running the football program. I'm sure the gloom and doom at dawgman headquarters is palpable.

    Yet they say we are the ones with an agenda........

    All these quotes that've been posted since the start of spring ball are pretty consistent. Here's some more:

    “There’s definitely a lot more accountability,” senior offensive lineman Ben Riva said. “If you mess up you’re going to hear about it, you’re going to know about it and you’re going to pay for it. You’re definitely held to a much higher standard.”

    Skip Hall, an assistant coach on Don James’ staff from 1975-86 before becoming the head coach at Boise State, watched a UW practice earlier this week from the Husky Stadium sideline, then chatted with Petersen afterward. “Integrity, unity and accountability,” Hall said after practice, listing off the pillars of Peter­sen’s philosophy. “Those have been missing around here for a while.”

    “You could ditch class before, and then ditch a little tutoring,” (Jaydon) Mickens said, “but now (they’re) on it. (Petersen) makes you want to be successful — you’ve got to be successful, otherwise you might not be here.” Mickens, after UW’s first practice last week, described the new staff as being “all business.”

    LRR, in other words

    Telling quote from Lake:

    “I’ve been doing this for a while,” Lake said, “and I think guys want to be disciplined. They want to work hard. They don’t want to walk out of a practice feeling like they didn’t get anything done. So if it felt like an amusement park and fun and games out here and no one broke a sweat, that day might feel good, but they’re not going to feel good the next day — and they’re not going to feel good when they go 7-7 or 8-4.

    What? I thought 8-4 was special?

    While reading Jude's story today and the posts in this thread, I'm reminded of the many times I read Puget Sound media fucks grind on and on ad infinitum about how Huskies were afraid of the stoic and stern ol' Dawgfather. Of course, they wanted it to sound like Don James was one mean asshole of a coach abusing UW football playing student-athletes who were suppose to be having fun and getting an education. Of course we new the truth no it, that the Dawgfather was a task master who insisted on work ethic from players and coaches and a dedication to fundamentals, discipline, and being accountable or you may not get to play. The Dawgfather's way didn't instill fear of anything but the always present possibility of riding the bench on gamedays. After working hard to prepare all week, the thought of not being a participant in a winning football program was the only horror the kids were exposed to, but how could media fucks and the band-boys at Dm.c know that? Hard work and the reward of football glory...... what a concept.

    Sark is like a really fucking low rent version of Carrol. It's like calling an Aries K a Hemi Cuda cause they are both technically Mopar's.
