Solution - don't be a pussy and go for it every time

Pete would’ve had two additional undefeated seasons if not for kicking woes. Certainly his Achilles’ heel. That and his offense lol?

Some coaches have more well documented issues with field goal kicking than others. Special teams have fucked up for Petersen far more than you would expect for such a disciplined program.

You have to start off by establishing what would be expected. What is the average FG% in NCAA? Broken down by different distances? On game winning kicks?
You can't just say oh hey, CP lost two games 10 years ago on missed FGs and then one last year ergo, well documented issue. -

I'll let you do the analysis on the statistics, Chest. Petersen has had shit special teams for a while, you don't need to do a linear regression on the hypotenusal deviations to recognize it. -
No, that isn't how it works.PostGameOrangeSlices said:FremontTroll said:

You're making the claim- you produce the evidence. -
It actually is how it works. The consensus is that special teams is not a strong point for the program. You can tell by watching the fucking games. The lone bright spot was Pettis returning kicks.FremontTroll said:

Your original claim was that CP's FG kickers always suck.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

Now you've changed from FG kicking to special teams holistically and from historically to just at UW? -
The bottom line is Chris Petersen is a fucking pussy. He'd rather put Aaron Fuller back there at punt return who is not a threat to do anything with the ball in his hands simply because he's sure handed and won't muff it. He's a conservative, risk-adverse pussy who plays not to lose and doesn't play the best talent. It's only fitting that all his kickers are pussies too.
Why wouldn't he just bring in a preferred walk-one kicker in every class and have the kickers compete separate from the rest of the team every day. How hard it is to have a GA set up 10 kicks that each of them has to attempt per practice, rotate through the entire group kicking every attempt, recording each attempt and the result, and then when the season rolls around play the one that was most accurate and give him a scholarship for that upcoming academic year. I'd say all four or five of them competing every day in practice for one scholarship would raise the pressure level of their kicks and simulate game level pressure. But I'm sure Petersen is too much of a pussy to do this. It might be too stressful on his kickers.
