Hyperthetical - what if Pete is able to hire Deboer instead of Hamden?whatshouldicareabout said:
I think people have a negative view of Pete because many felt he needed to make a few changes to adapt to a modern college football environment (*cough* offense) but he was stubborn and refused to change.DerekJohnson said:
I don't know about it being unforgivable, but it is a major part of his underachieving legacy.haie said:
All Petersen had to do was the finish the job and win any NY6. Fucking up a pretty open PAC 12 in 2019 (sorry neither Utah nor Oregon was dominant), especially given his momentum for 3 years, and then quitting, is unforgivable.dtd said:DeBoer seems like a more balanced modern coach. Pete too rigid. Still The hate for him here is still pretty cray tho.
I think that stubbornness to adapt to modern, Power 5 football is what held him, and thus us, back.
Fans here adore DeBoer since he has many of the same intangibles as Pete (he's an adult) but is willing to be a modern college football coach. -
For years, you know sometimes, I don't know why, but this old board just seemed so hopeless when it came to Husky football.

I don't think it would have been a great result. Pete would still Pete it up. People forget that he was an offensive coach first.WoolleyDoog said:

People forget that. -
Pete gets rejuvenated by DeBoers drive and the ease with which UW now scores. The 2019 Rose Bowl is a resounding UW victory, followed by Big Dick Eason being first team all P12 QB and a second straight Rose Bowl appearance in 2020. The two slog through shitty P12 Covid year when Pete decides it’s time to hang it up and gives the reigns to the obvious choice, his new hero, Kalen DeBoer in 2021.WoolleyDoog said:

No Penix if Pete hires DeBoer

For the sake of this hypothetical let's say Pete was good enough to realize he needed to hire a real offensive coordinator and let him actually coordinate.
-
Are you thinking this would have helped Pete care a little more about coaching football? Because it seems like he didn't want to do the job anymore, and I think you still need to have a head coach who wants to do the work necessary.WoolleyDoog said:For the sake of this hypothetical let's say Pete was good enough to realize he needed to hire a real offensive coordinator and let him actually coordinate.

I think instead of winning games 27-23 or losing games 6-13 UW is winning them 38-16. Easier to relax and enjoy the process a little. Lake probably bails for a new DC gig as KDB passes him in the eyes of Husky fans as a HC in waiting and the defense is turned back over to Kwitkowski in 2019. I still think the Covid year ends his career but DeBoer is in place and recruiting remains high in 2020 and 2021 as long as Pete was on board and closing recruits. UW is seen as the preeminent program on the coast because of four straight NY6 games between 2017-2020 and three P12 titles in four years. Pete lasts a couple years longer but the cult of DeBoer takes Pete on a nice ride to close his career.TheHB said:
