My theory on Chris Peterman

My theory. Peterman wouldn’t ever change like Saban and Orgeron has done.

I’m glad Lake is in there so maybe he will make huskies great again so may reach the CFP that drew me here to start with and I can restart the fukn with y’all again.

I think DJ was right and he’s been burned out for awhile and not really enjoying himself. Once he takes a break and gets bored, he might give it another go. And I bet he makes changes when he does.

Disagree with the last paragraph. I don’t think it was that defined. I think Pete thought Jimmy would leave this offseason, and if Pete wanted to leave with his legacy intact for all the reasons you cited, it had to be now. I do think he viewed Jimmy as his natural successor.

I don't think Pete is preoccupied with his legacy.

For Pete, the legacy I think he’s concerned about is the culture he established. It’s not wins and losses or bowl games. It’s the culture. He believes Jimmy can sustain the culture, and take the program wherever he will. That’s his legacy. Building programs with sustainable, positive cultures.

The doog is strong in me lately, but I think Jimmy will be a better HC than coordinator. I think he can carry built for life forward and even improve it (this is a place I think TSiO was dead on, marginal guys are who need B4L), while being more willing to do what it takes to win.
