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

Ken Griswold has a change of heart

in Hardcore Husky Board
As many who have frequented dawgman in the past and have since swarmed to this board know, the CEO has had a long standing dislike for "negative posting". Questions like "Why is a coach who can't win more than 5 conference games not on the hot seat?" and "Why are we still getting blown out 3 times a year?" were made by individuals who are just negative people and wanted to bring the board down with their negativity. In many cases, "other posters were starting to complain" to mods about such negativity posting the boards and it was necessary to have "deleted stuff".

It appears that Griswold has had a change of heart in this matter. After a new poster compared Coach Petersen's leadership to "watching the sinking of the Titanic" and that Petersen"forcing Miles out" and "not utilizing Kasen" showed a real "lack of integrity". To quote the poster, a "good coach would have built on the foundation left by the previous staff".

At first, the post seemed destined to sink as most disregarded it. Then the CEO chose to bump the post by responding "Let's see who bites on this".

After a few people voiced their agitation, this appeared signaling that Griswold has changed his mind regarding freedom of speech on his boards:

"Ignoring stuff is more effective than engaging, getting pissed, and complaining to the mods. There's always going to be those who have fun engaging. Recognize stuff for what it is. "

Unfortunately,when some of us chose to "have fun engaging" in the past, were no longer allowed to "engage"

    If Kent Griswold had any balls at all, he'd lift all IP bans.

    Until that he is just talking shit and not smoking weed like Lane Kiffen.

    I don't give a flying fuck what that cunt thinks. The question is why so many here do? I'm sure that faggit likes the attention more than an actual brb blonde.

    Do the math

    He bumped it because he hates Petersen.

    If it had been about Romar or Sark he would have shitcanned the post and banned the poster.

    You guys know better.

    At least u admit ur an idiot. Just regurgitating Race Bannon's HH talking points.
    Try to have an independent thought.
    Why would he hate Petersen ?seriously?!
    He's critical and rightly so. Kim spoke up a year ago about Petersen's recruiting efforts. Kim was frustrated over Petersen settling for lower level guys and not competing in California. It's clear so far Petersen is taking a different approach this year.

    Kim called him out about game management, there were no personal attacks. Anyone with a pulse knows Petersen cost u guys the Arizona game.

    And finally he was critical about ur final record, The team under performed so who should get the blame?
    The only personal attacks going on is the scorched earth policy this board follows against anyone critical of Petersen.

    Petersen isn't doing anything different this year, unless you're counting the fact that he's not just coming into the job in December. He's on record as saying that this is the system his staff runs, and it's the only system they know and they know it will work.

    And Kim has reason enough to dislike Petersen when he says his TBS star-stroking job is a bunch of bullshit that his staff wants no part of.

    Are you really that dumb or were you born yesterday? Everyone, including Kent (hi Kim) knows that fallacy holds zero water and is just a made up argument for those who get kicked out of Peterman's office. Peterman's first class, which he had less than 2 months to put it together, was ranked 35th and closed out with four 4star kids with an average star ranking of 3. Not spectacular but by any level-headed, impartial observer, a very solid first class, not even taking into account the extremely limited time period.

    Comparing Peterman's class to Sark's 5th class is comparing apples to oranges. But you already knew that. Nevermind that Peterman signed as many 4star kids and a had a higher avg star ranking in his first full class than Sark did in his 5th. But if you want to compare apples to apples, Sark's 2009 class was ranked 66th, signed one 4star and averaged 2.5 stars per player. And that's without taking into account the benefit of hindsight, where we now know that the 2009 class is far, far worse than 66th in actual results.

    But, I mean, 0-12, right?

    Are people in this thread really engaging and arguing with @beelzebub?

    A psych grad student could write a dissertation about the way Beez has become a Kim proxy for posters struggling to come to terms with how Doogman treated them.

    I'm old enough to remember when Kim's bored had so much traffic he didn't have time to post on a competitor's board... under an alias... posing as a retard himself.

    Fixed that for you

    Peterman's first recruiting class at UW is total dog shit... unless and until one by one those players develop into something. Same as it is with all coaches.

    The differences between Sark's and Peterman's first class are:

    1. We know Sarks first class was a dismal failure/ Peterman's, the jury is still out.

    2. We know Peterman hit the ground running, the day he took the job simply adjusting his recruiting program./ Sark had no recruiting program and seemingly threw the first class intentionally, to provide himself a cover story for slow progress... which the doogs swallowed enthusiastically.

    How the fuck can you call his first recruiting class dog shit right now? We've only seen 8 of them play (Pettis, Lenius, Dissly, Gardenhire, Hale, Jones, Baker, Vizcaino) because the other 15 players were redshirting. Additionally, that's 92 total player-years of football for this recruiting class and we've only seen 8 player-years, so effectively only 8.7% of this entire recruiting class.

    And even though we've only seen <10% of this recruiting class, I'd say Sidney Jones is already something, being the best CB on the team, and Budda Baker is our best safety, too.

    It's way too early to say anything about Petersen's first recruiting class.
