Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

There's really no downside re: Peters Dismissal

For all intensive purposes, TSIO.

Peters was no doubt leaving for the league after this year, as he should, so he had no future in the program. Sidney Jones, Nate Dogg Jr, Gardenhire, etc. are all freshman that will benefit a ton from the extra playing time over the last few games. But that's not even the biggest part of this.

Successful people can see past a short term pain or loss for a long term gain.

Sark would be doing anything and everything he could to get to a SPECIAL 9 WIN SEASON, what a cool year for the Huskies man. Petersen realizes the individual outcomes of these last 4 games don't really mean shit in the long run, but rather a great opportunity for growth as a program. This is Petersen saying I don't give a fuck if you're the best corner in the country in a shitty secondary, if you're not buying into the program and the team, we don't need you. If you think you're bigger than the team, we don't need you. He gave Peters a chance to clean his shit up after the Eastern debacle, he didn't, and now he's door. ass. out.

The move gives credibility to Petersen, his staff, and the program. No empty threats here. Respect the program, process, coach, and most importantly your teammates or else you can LEAVE.

    He seems a lot like Ty. I'm not saying he he Ty. So don't twist. He's running off the best players and doing dumb fake punts and shit.

    But how's his golf game?

    We could win out and Petersen would tie Ty (TyTy? I don't like to call him that) in total wins at UW. I'm not saying that will happen, but it could. Either way it'll be interesting. Unless it's not.

    I like to call him Ty the same way I like to call DJ DJ. It saves a lot of time. I like saving time. That's what I like to do.

    This is some high level dooging.

    These games do matter. Some of us would like to reach the very attainable 10 wins. And kick UCLA's teeth in.

    By your logic, we should sit our entire d line (all seniors) and get reps for the young kids. But wait, that would be stupid because winning is fun and is supposed to matter.

    It sucks to lose Peters. It is what it is, but this "this is a best case scenario" shit is ridiculous.

    Everyone wants to win. This is a long-term decision. He needs to set a precedent and show the younger guys the nonsense and insubordination won't be tolerated.

    In two or three years noone will care if we were 9-5 or 10-4 and whether it was the Purple Vegas Bowl, boner Sun Bowel, Alamo Bowl or the toilet bowl. If it's not a Rose Bowl or really high second tier bowl like the Cotton (which has no tie-in) noone GAF anyway.

    For all *intents and purposes,* you can win games and change a culture at the same time.

    Again, if all that mattered was three years from now, you should be calling to sit all the seniors. Who cares? Get young guys reps.

    Hmm. I agree. It would be a huge statement if Petersen won more games in his debut season (10) than SarkFS did in any of his seasons. Momentum going into the offseason for recruiting would be huge as well. We also have some unfinished business with UCLA and Mora, time to fucking win and beat a good team.

    We're 6-3 and with a good shot to win 9-10 games including the bowl. That's exactly what we're doing. Notice how I said getting the freshman DBs experience isn't the biggest part? The point is even if we lose one more game than we would have won with Peters, it's not a big fuckin deal. Do I want to win every game? Of course. Is letting a potentially cancerous player hang around and drag other guys down with him worth an extra win in a non-contending season? Fuck no.

    Jesus you're bad at this.

    I badly want to kick Mora's face in but is not having Marcus Peters the difference between winning and losing?

    I'm actually looking forward to how Sidney Muthfuckin' Jones matches up with Jordan Payton now. For the most part, their other WRs are JAGs and UCLA has give up 28 sacks in the 9 games Hundley has played in so if we can get at least 4 on him and stymie his running lanes, Hundley won't have a very fun night. E. Massington for them is pretty big but it seems like he's still working his way back from an ACL tear and he's pretty inexperienced.

    Anyway, I do see what the OP meant and that's Hale and Gardenhire getting a lot more reps. We weren't beating the better programs in the Pac-12 WITH Peters and it's not like Peters was going to come back next year, so is the downside of not having Peters while getting the frosh ready for 2015 that big of a deal?

    When you're done rooting Mike Slive's cock, please explain how a 7-2 team with losses to #3 and #17, and with a blowout road 62-27 victory @ #9 doesn't qualify as 'good'

    If your argument centers on narrow victories over dreckfest teams, don't bother as you've already lost.

    Uh, no.

    These next two games matter. A lot. Manage a split (or better), and Pete gets a respectable bowl bid and a lot of momentum rolling into recruiting season. Drop them both, and you spend the entire offseason answering questions about whether the program is still just treading water.

    Dismissing Peters was the right call for the long-term good of the program. But pretending the short-term hit to your defense doesn't matter is wishful thinking.

    This situation reminds me a lot of titus young. A kid with incredible talent and obvious ability to play at the next level but regularly made stupid decisions. Titus spent an entire year on the sidelines thanks to his inability to understand basic concepts(and probable mental disorder). Peters has some of those same issues where he just doesn't understand or comprehend basic thought. You see it on the field all the time.

    It's a huge loss for this defense on the field, but not if he's such a problem in practice it's a massive distraction.

    The fact that ASU is #9 in the country just shows that that there are a maximum of eight good teams in the country. I'd call it seven, as I think MSU isn't good either.
