Holy shit man. You've jumped the shark.CallMeBigErn said:
Petersen is an amazing human being and we should all aspire to be like him. I am very sad to see him go. I've shed more than a few tears. The guy has values beyond caveman testosterone-fueled football. A true humble caring winner and a gold standard human. That's great and all, and I hope he writes a book so I can get a signed copy, but wins on the field do matter to us cross-eyed, bow-legged peasants. It does seem like he's lost his fire and he knows it. He knows exactly what this program needs and he's such a fucking amazing and humble human that he's throwing away millions so we can have it. The dude is an absolute saint.RoadDawg55 said:
How so? What’s your take?CallMeBigErn said:99/100 takes on here in the last day have been shit as fuck.
I'm stoked for Jimmy Lake Washington. If Petersen and Cohen approve, I approve. He's 42 years old. We may be in store for a 20+ year Purple Reign. Be excited.
I was going to keep it to myself, but that's my super spicy habenero hot take.

Good. Freaking the fuck out gave Oregon Kelly. Maybe freaking the fuck out here will give us a boss head coach as well. I don't see why this is something to be scared of. We have a great infrastructure built by Petersen, great recruits in the pipeline, and a great AD who's proven to identify pretty damn good coaches. I don't see this as a dice roll. I'm trusting Jen and the foundation Pete has built.creepycoug said:

What did Quooks say when Bellotti gave the program to Kelly? That seems like a more reasonable comparison. Do you think Kelly gave a shit when he left? Do you consider him a program builder?dnc said:

I am cautiously optimistic but great coaches are generally terrible at identifying other coaches.
Cohen identified Hopkins and Petersen. Hopkins had never coached either. I'd say she's batting 1.000 so far, so lets give her the benefit of the doubt without even bringing Petersen into it. Being cautious about our optimism is of course warranted, but I don't think was a lazy handover. This was a genuine head coach signing that's probably been in the works for a while (conjecture). I think Petersen's opinion should be taken into consideration also, just as much as Meyer and Stoops. He's a proven program builder and winner. I'm pretty sure he realizes what it takes to run a program and he wouldn't leave this program if it wasn't in good hands. Lake is ready and so is my body.
Quooks were freaked the fuck out when Kelly was hired because he was a nobody, and after Boise State and the Punch Heard Round the World they were in full panic mode.
Which only drives home the point even further. I can't tell you how many times I've read these words:

Pete is a goddamn saint. Question his coaching all you want but the dude is a boss human.creepycoug said:

Have you seen LSU on offense this year?DawgDaze71 said:No USC knows they need a big name coach. Someone that will give an instant boost to recruiting.
Coaching is overrated. Out of Ohio State, Clemson, Bama and LSU. OSU and Clemson may be the teams that actual coach. Bama just inserts the next 5 Star and LSU does as well. I remember Saban as a HC his last two teams. He good ...he wasn’t magical.
Lake’s success will come down to recruiting. He needs to win for the guys with size and speed. -
Yeah, they just picked his name out of a hat blindfolded. No rhyme or reason. The fuck? This season clearly broke you.creepycoug said:

Lake is no defensive savant. It’s more like if the Quooks had gone from Belotti to Frost.

JFC. I don't think you get what "roll of the dice" means in this context. And I'm not going to explain it to someone who just delivered a fucking sermon to me about what a great human being Chris Petersen is.CallMeBigErn said:

IDRGAF and most other people don't either.
