Should be chastised for his lack of fortitude. Or Applauded for getting his nut from Jen and then lighting Jimmys bag on fire.

Honestly never thought he was happy with the move. Never got the impression he fully embraced husky football. I absolutely love him and would even do feet stuff for the guy. I'm generally a no go below the ankles, which I learned is haram from @PurpleBaze . Those three years were absolute doog boners and I loved every second. Sadly he wasn't able to overcome stuff as part of the gig, is no longer coaching, and if coaches again, won't likely be at UW.

Your first two years you fucking threw the seasons because Cyler Miles and Browning could dink and dunk to your heart's content. Wouldn't tell Shaq to suck it up when he didn't want to run the ball when you needed it.

You also killed the emotion in your players when they were up against big games which goes completely against what college football is about. It's why you had 0 upsets your entire time at Washington.

First two years were "numb" and "blurry". That explains why our offense sucked so bad.

Also, if I had a nickel for everyone who has said, “I’ll be a Husky for life, but..."

Pete came to Washington to break through that G5 ceiling and show the nation that his methods worked and were the best in CFB.

Getting UW to the playoffs is an accomplishment few schools can claim, especially considering how we haven't done anything since 2000.

Once Pete saw what Alabama was like, he tried to elevate his game (esp recruiting) and that's what caused his burn out.

Going into 2019, he knew he was done.

Remember the Hawaii game? Dude had to milk the clock like he was New Mexico State securing the upset.

Single handedly hamded Arizona a victory because "my dumb fuck system told me to give it to the back with no knees instead of just kneeling and punting and putting their win % at like .2"

2015 he lost to fucking Utah. At home! Fucking garage band fill in singer QB.

Then goes up like 21-0 against Todd Graham who then just destroys him in the 2nd half because his offensive philosophy assumes teams don't blitz your dink and dunl bullshit.

After Alabama he went about it all wrong. Closed a bunch of soft players that Oregon and SC eat up 24/7.

I hated Pete the first two years, but 2016 made it all gravy.

He will coach again somewhat soon. The bullshit about him helping businesses was always stupid. Pete has done nothing in his adult life but coach football. That’s his skill.

Imagine if Pete was getting paid Don James money (ie non generational wealth). He’d have to grind it out like every other working stiff sleeping in the office drinking @MikeDamone approved Folgers covfefe.

Pete to Oregon after Lanning goes 3 - 9 this year.

Drive for Amazon then pop off about burn out

Nobody feels sorry for millionaires. They can afford to quit

Doubt Pete will coach DI football again. NIL and the transfer portal are probably 2 of his personal hells.

rodmansrage

i think he was burnt out coaching at bjc, uw came calling, thought it would reinvigorate him, did for a bit, realized he couldnt/wouldnt compete against playoff teams, and then he again realized he hated coaching.

Remember what Pete said when he was hired by the Huskies? What did he see himself doing in 10 years?

It wasn’t being the head coach at UW or aspiring to coach a more big-time Power 5 football program.

Look it up . . .

Don’t think any good coach is ready for the expectations of the Husky fans (Tyee folks) accompanied by a lack of support from the school’s Administration and an AD like Jen.

It helps to have the AD, Coach and fans on the same page and an Administration that at least stays out of the way.

Pete had numerous opportunities to leave Boise State before he took the UW job.

He saw what happened to successful Boise State coaches that jumped to P5 schools too quick (or without being judicious) to P5 programs

First coach in PAC-10 to make $1M/year?

Rick Neuheisel, UW, 1999. The salaries exploded after that.

In 1983 Don James was making $103,200 or $308,000 adjusted to 2022 dollars. Hell, even the row boat corch makes over $300,000 now.

Who wants to try hard to win Rose Bowls when you can just drink fancy coffee and drive pimp boats?

Yep … I got the impression in that article that he will be back in the next 12-24 months for one last run

No shit. I give zero fucks about some guy who was paid tens of millions of dollars in his career to coach a kids' game and then he bitches about burnout and passion and all that fuckery.

Try driving truck or working on a farm or anything in the trades to put food on the table. That's real passion and commitment and discipline.

Like we say, Peterman, fuck off.
