    Pete’s not the answer.

    Pea Patch. Stat.

    Hell if you want you can name it the Pete Patch.

    I disagree after 20 years of this shit, he was the lone bright spot. With adequate support from upper campus he can get it back on track.
    Unless you are getting Kyle Whittingham anytime soon.

    Sure, I'd love to have Pete back. But there's no chance in hell he has any desire to jump back into the meat grinder. Especially now that he's had a taste of the good life.

    Pete would only fix part of the problem.
    At no point did Pete ever accept that his outdated offense was outdated, so at best UW becomes respectable again.

    Pete has (had?) the ability to be a great figurehead for a program, making key decisions, closing recruits (no matter how much he hated it) - but he always needed talented coordinators who he respected enough to give not just responsibility but authority over their areas. He couldn't do that on offense and we saw the result.

    TL;dr - Petersen had his chance and hasn't learned anything.

    I’m not convinced Lake and Jen didn’t push him out. Like that little annoying kid in the back seat … are we there yet
