    Everyone is clearly missing the point.
    IF you can get Pete to plug this gigantic hole you do it. Portal transfers and mass exodus of talent are going to happen. It’s already happening with instate recruiting. Make Pete a god damn offer he can’t refuse… fuck make him AD

    Fuck Pete and fuck going back

    Burn the boats

    If by burn the boats you mean that we have to win with the current staff... then like we say... no
    No it means we’re going back to war with the UW after a brief respite.

    The war has always been raging, it just moved underground for a few years. The guerrilla tactics of failure are now openly flaunted by the AD.

    Just wait till Yella starts writing letters. I’m ALL IN on this war.

    He's part of the problem and not the answer if you want to compete on the national stage.

    If Jen had any brains she’s on the phone Monday morning giving Pete an offer he can’t refuse

    If Jen wants to give Pete an offer he can't refuse that would include Jen stepping down and hiring a more competent AD.

    Rumor I heard is that Pete was not in favor of Jen as the AD and wanted his buddy from BSU hired into the role.

    This is the NLI era, an extension of the behind the scenes activity that has been happening in prior years to NLI. Even Don James couldn't compete in today's environment for the best recruits. Oregon is going to continue to take the best recruits regardless whether they win or lose. And Washington will continue to lose recruits until an Amazon or Microsoft steps up. Will a good coach come to UW knowing that Oregon has the NLI advantage for the foreseeable future? Doubtful. And the transfer portal adds an layer of instability and stress on a coaching staffs that doesn't have the NLI advantage. College teenager free agency is here. Enjoy. On a side note, Jimmy Lake has the team on a steep downward trajectory with decent recruits. The AD will have a decision to make very soon.

    Last time I checked UW went from schedule gifted 7-6 Sark to Playoffs with 2-3 star talent under Pete.
    Who’s to say Lake didn’t get under his skin and Pete just said fuck it?
    Hire him as AD and let him take over the season. Save the talent save the recruiting classes. There’s too much talent in Washington to throw away on Lakes mess. Let Pete do a search for an adequate replacement on his own terms

    burn your boats
    [British] or burn your bridges
    to do something which forces you to continue with a particular course of action, and makes it impossible for you to return to an earlier situation


    I see now that Race meant burn the Petersen boat
    When Cortez the Killer reached the new world he burned his ships.
    Which is what I was saying

    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.
    He’s not the same guy anymore.

    He’s done.

    BSU is a well run Athletic Department. Let's hire their AD.

    Cut every Boise tie imaginable please and thank you. If the janitor came from Boise send his ass back. I’ve seen enough, we can’t do the USC/Carroll Tree circle jerk with Petersen’s minions for a decade. Cut. Fucking. Bait.

    Who is UW’s #1 Booster? The fact we don’t have a name of a person with $500M that automatically rolls of all of our tongues is a fucking problem that means we don’t have a fast route out (no offense Sonics, your story was truly inspiring). UW AD is going broke in a city that might as well be a fucking money printer.

    Pretty sure it's Ron Crockett.

    Get a goddamn avatar and this might garner the upvotes it deserves. This is an excellent point and one Ive been making for days. The NLI changes everything and very few teams on the West Coast are primed to take advantage of it. In fact, I can only think of one. Oregon. Because Nike and Sizzle and Grellow. We picked the EXACT wrong tim to shit the bed. As expected.

    I like Petersen a lot. I wanted him at UW forever. They just waited too long to get him and what we got was good, but not good enough. I totally agree that you don't go back unless 8-10 win seasons are your goal.

    I see a situation where Pete takes over for Jen…hires Coach K and cleans up the staff. Tedford is brought in as OC and they groom someone like Moore for Head Coach as Pete takes over Athletic Director and interim coach. I like to dream I know but fuck what else is left

    Pete can go fuck himself. Go rot in potato land with your shit offense and conservative gameplans you fucking loser.

    Take your fucking staff with you. These cucks can't do shit in the Pac 12.

    Given the state of, well, everything - I’d take him back in a heartbeat no questions asked. In fact I’d be delighted.
