Race ya think we will win one with pete?RaceBannon said:
He compares perfectly to James and that's the problem. I've been saying since 2016 we want better than James. Look at the records and Pete is well on his way to a Don James career here.LebamDawg said:
I acknowledge that with Pete it is a higher level of mediocrity. The trouble with that is you fall harder when you lose to teams you should never be losing. CalFord this year, Cal last year, ASU the year before, I am not looking at a schedule so there is more. lots more. with nary a signature win or for that matter a face on our program that is talked about in CFB circles. Maybe we are the trickster team?YellowSnow said:
Mabel, there’s a pretty YUGE gap between Pete mediocrity and Sark mediocrity. Pete’s dog shit season is looking like 9-3 or 8-4 with a few of the losses being in doubt till the final ticks of the clock.LebamDawg said:

Jesus mang. I’ve traveled with my wife to the CFP and the Rose Bowl in the past 3 yrs. I’m not going back to mediocrity with all you Russian roulette muther fuggas.
Doesn't mediocrity have its limits? Sark's was 7 wins and jumped up to 8 at the end.
Pete had us in NY6 bowels after improving the 7 and 8 wins to 10-12. Looks like he is dropping back to 8 or 9 this year. What will next year bring? 9-10.
So Pete just has a higher level of mediocrity than Sark. Just enough to get our hopes broken at a different level. Seems to me the NY6 games may be back in 2 years. But proven track record will be to fall behind by 30 points to fall short by 4-10 points.
I went to the RB and we lost awards are not given out,
We should be 7-1 right now at worst 6-2.
I like Pete but I am not going to put him on a pedestal and compare him to James. It would not bother me if they keep him a couple more years and it would not bother me if they got rid of him. That is what Pete has done for this program -
we are a better mediocre than ever before
James won his first Rose Bowl is the big difference. And beat a one loss Texas team in the Sun Bowl
But look how long it took to get another coach you kids can hate as much as I hated James!
Good enough but not good enough until he was -

Successful game/clock management has nothing to do with recruiting, talent, etc. He's lost several close games because he does not have the knack for making the correct, split-second decisions that effect the outcome of close games. He's proven as much, over, and over, and over again.

Often the "correct" decision doesn't work. The call could be perfect but the players still have to execute. Often the incorrect call works and we classify it as the correct decision even if it wasn't. That's the nature of armchair coaches. Petersen isn't on the field, the players are. In close games on key plays it often comes down to luck and fate. I'd prefer to not even be in that position. How often does Nick Saban have to make key split second decisions? Almost never because his talent blows other teams assholes open. Pete Carroll was an amazing college coach and lawd knows it wasn't because of his clock management. They say games are won in the 4th, but I'd prefer getting to the point where we win games in the first half. My bigger concern is how conservative Pete gets with a lead. I want our foot on the throat. We could have done that on Saturday but we let them back in it. Hats off to Jimmy Lake and the defense for that too.digits said:Successful game/clock management has nothing to do with recruiting, talent, etc. He's lost several close games because he does not have the knack for making the correct, split-second decisions that effect the outcome of close games.

That being said, running the wildcat in a key moment with a 4th string RB because "it's worked" is the stupidest fucking thing I've ever seen and heard and Pete/Hamdan should have to do 1000 pushups.
There's certainly issues, but I'd rather blame everyone and everything.

Fair enough, but I’ve been worked up in a handful of threads @whuggy, so I kept my roll goin.whuggy said:
Well it wasn't a fire Pete topic. It was simply a question about whether there is a succession agreement.DoogCourics said:
Every team in the country is scrambling to figure out which coach could get them a championship. Problem is, only Saban, Dabo, and Urban have been able to do it in the playoff era. Lots of splash hires around the country that don’t bear fruit. Lots of college football royalty trying desperately to figure out who that coach is that will bring them back to the promise land.whuggy said:
Swaye made a really good point when he said if you think Pete gives you a 1% chance to win it all and there's guys out there that give you 2% chance then you make the move every time. I have always liked Petersen but I'm starting to get interested in the 2% option. Who knows. Maybe JL bumps you up to 5%.PurpleBaze said:

On the other hand some of our non-coordinator hires haven't been too special either.PurpleBaze said:One more thing - UW hasn't had a good track record with promoting coordinators to the HC position.
Furthermore, one may surmise that the coordinators are cut from the same cloth as the head coach. So, promoting one of them to HC would just be more inbreeding.

Same policies and same playbook; same culture. Yes, he worked up the ranks and was promoted within.
UW AD has found so many different ways to burn us out over the years. May as well keep throwing shit at the wall to see what finally sticks.
Just so fucking tired and frustrated with a mediocre product.
We are all so frustrated and tired of inexplicable losses because we expect championships from Petersen. You could hire a shit load of dudes that won’t even get you consistent 10 win seasons, let alone expectations of a realistic shot at a championship. You could easily cycle through 6 coaches over 20 years trying to find that 2% option you’re talking about that can finally break through.
Petersen does 90% of things right which leads to consistency that I’ve been craving my whole adult life. It’s the 10% that fucks up the championship hopes I’ve been holding since I was a kid. Our only hope is that Petersen figures out the 10% and evolves.
That 10% is:
- In game decisions
- Letting go of the offense
- And recruiting at a top 10-15 level every year so the depth outweighs his coaching fuck ups
We are fucked. We have to hope he fucking evolves. Because otherwise you are Russian Rouletting yourself into putting yourself in the same 20 year shit we were in before we got Petersen and got expectations.
And for everyone who says “recruiting doesn’t matter you faggot, just win the games”. Yeah, well, the only team that has won a championship in the last two decades without being a top 10 recruiter or having top 10 composite talent is Clemson with a generational D Watson.
So with Pete’s development and Sam Huard who is our lord and savior, we could be 10-15.
But fuck off with this, “Fire Pete he cant get it don’t just go find someone who will”.
Where? Who? Who is that going to be? Because no one else can fucking find them. It’s fucking hard. Ask Michigan. They’ve been looking since 97. You don’t just boot someone who at least has that 1%, because barely anyone has that. Saban and Dabo and Urban rule the world. The rest of us are scrabbling for scraps.
Petersen won’t be fired, and even if he did who the fuck gives you a better chance.
He either evolves or he doesn’t and we are fucked. But if we go out and throw darts at a bored we are fucked anyway. So he needs to evolve. -

@DoogCourics is far too rational for the "Winners win, losers lose, alpha, beta, phi delta kappa" nonsense Me Tarzan, you Jane mentality that permeates around here. Can we get a cave rat board for lower level discussion amongst the simples?FirePete said:

Pete sucks and you morons that don't agree are morons. You know how I know he sucks. Because it's year six and he still doesn't know what the fuck he is doing. Stop trying to make excuses for him. He fucken sucks. He has been coaching for 15 years and he doesn't know what the fuck he is doing. In Their first 10 years of coaching, Saban, dabo and Urban had already won a Natty. Those fuckers know How to win. Petersen knows how to throw seasons and games away. He is pathetic and if you defend him you are also pathetic. You are better than that. Snap out of it. He needs to go now. We can get Urban if we really wanted. We got the facilities and the once great winning tradition, he would definitely get us a Natty. But because UW is beta af that will never hau and if all we can get is Jimmy I'll fucken take it. Let Jimmy take over the show we need some passion. Petersen times up get the fuck out.
