Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Coach Pete on the D and O coaching staff...
When asked if he expected the D to be this good:
“...I just think that we’ve got some really good coaches over there, we’ve got some really good kids that really bought into their coaching, and they’re competing really, really hard, and that’s all we can really ask.”
Has anybody ever heard him say we have really good coaches on the O side? I've heard him say good stuff about the OL coach and the RB coach.... but that's it.

FWIW, Strausser has been with Petersen since the start of time and our RB coach is also our recruiting coordinator, and he seems to be doing a great job there, so they've received some praise.
The secondary last year got absolutely torched against Eastern, but they immediately got better. It didn't takes years like it has taken any position group on offense. We lost some great players from last year's defense and have gotten better. The coaching is obviously good on that side of the ball. And Petersen deserves most of the credit for that.
Compare that to the offense where we have a MWC QB coach for a coordinator. I just wish the offense had the same, "Kick the shit out of you" attitude that the defense does. It just seems like the offense is much more complicated and detailed than the defense. A bunch of nice kids on offense compared to a bunch of junkyard dawgs on defense. I love watching the defense because they play with passion. The offense always plays timid and nervous.
Other than that, good post.
