The best thing we have heard about Chris Peterson is that he is impacting people's lives. Not taking away from the main issue.

Sounds like you are academic yourself? White guilt about stealing money and teaching kids about micro aggressions?

Got it.

Did you pull a sark and "accidentally" mix your Quaaludes with your normal cocktail of jager and benadryl this morning?

LIPO. He gets 3 years from me. Probably at least 4 no matter what in reality, because of the precedent our fucktarded AD has set. The man you want to fire right now is Woody. Get a real AD who will tell Pete to win or get fucked.

I said from the beginning I'll give him three seasons, so I'm hanging tough in the LIPO mode as well. I shouldn't be surprised because of what Husky Football has become (i.e. 21st Century Husky Football; a.k.a. the Marinerization of Husky Football), but Petersen's numerous coaching errors during game time is embarrassing and has left me wondering how in the fuck this guy won as many games as he did. I know what conference(s) Boise Community College was/is in and all that crap, but still. @Jesus_H_Christ !

I agree UW needs an AD that's actually, ya know, ran an athletic department before, but UW doesn't even have an appointed president right now. So, the AD and Petersen have carte blanche, probably for the next two years or so, while the BOR trips over themselves finding a new president. But it's not solely on the AD. No, I believe that the Marinerization of Husky Football is now deeply rooted in the very fabric of this university, and is most likely beyond repair. Just as the Mariners' atrocious administration hamstrings that team over and over again, so does the UW's admin.

Since dickface Gerberding hired Babs and destroyed Husky Football, here is a list of the illustrious UW presidents that followed him (List does not include interim presidents):

- Richard McCormick: Ran outta town for allegedly having a love triangle with fellow UW employees.
- Mark Emmert: Nuffsed on that.
- Michael Young: Took the job as a retirement package and did absolutely fucking nothing during his tenure. Last straw, ran outta town after he allegedly requested to work remotely... from Utah.

So who's selecting these great leaders? The UW Board of Regents. Who appoints the BOR members? Why, the governor of course! And there's the rub. Due to the PC, unusual faggotry this state has become in the last twenty years, I do believe Husky Football is fuct for life.

Hey, at least we still have crew!

FYFMFE

I am looking forward to the podcast....I wish I could listen to it all at once but it's tough, even for a guy with no life..

I think Pete sticks with babushka.... Pete appears incredibly stubborn... his iron clad contract allows for it. He is bullet proof.

THIS is when we will really know what we have in Petersen

Lol. This is Fleens level hyperbole.

I don't give two shits about coordinators. If you fire a coordinator, it doesn't necessarily mean you're tuff or smart (hi, Sark!).

Smith could literally hate platooning the running backs, but Pete tells him to do it. We have no fucking idea.

Pete's the CEO. It lies at his feet.

You are right, Pete's the CEO.

As CEO, a paramount job is making key/critical decisions with regarding to people, particularly direct reports.

Firing Babushka after last year wasn't warranted. Very possible that you could/should have looked at his performance this year as being a huge factor on a go forward basis.

If Petersen is the right CEO of football, he observes what is going on and admits when he's made poor hiring decisions and then CORRECTS the hiring decisions that have been made.

Yes, Petersen is responsible for everything that goes on in the program. But to have a successful program, it MUST be done with support from his direct supports ... which means having high end assistant coaches and coordinators. On the defensive side of the ball, I think that's an observable fact at this point. You aren't seeing the same on the offensive side.

If Petersen isn't the right CEO of football, then he doubles down on the current trends and makes excuses or denies that there is a problem. In the end, that rarely works out well.
