Good point.RoadDawg55 said:
Completely agree with the premise, but Saban hires fired coaches all the time. Most assistants get fired at one time or another. Hiring Smith was from Pete's formula. He promotes coaches from within. The difference was Harsin, Wilcox, Kelly Kaposki, etc were actually successful position coaches.Thump said:If Petersen was serious about winning -- he'd have a real OC and a real QB coach in there, and not a retread from Montana.
We also wouldn't have a WR coach that was fired from Florida for sucking ass.
That shit might fly when your team only has 1-2 tough games a year, but it doesn't fly in a power 5 conference.
He needs to seriously step up his game or get the fuck out.
The cynic in me has wondered if he went with Smith, because he was tired of his good assistants getting hired away -- and he calculated that nobody would try and hire Smith away. -
You could be right. I just feel like it's hard to tell from the data available.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:Smith is a Little Sky caliber coordinator. Throw a dart on a map and you could find a better one.

We have the worst offense in the Pac 12. How much more data do you need?TTJ said:

I used the phrase "plunger rape" in mixed company at the sports club last week while discussing the upcoming Cal-UCLA game. It just slipped out, and it actually got a better reception than I expected.HuskyInAZ said:
Not an attempt to hijack, but thanks to this bored (and our underperforming offense), I've been saying "sucks balls" so much lately, my wife is now saying it. If only she'd do it a little more....Southerndawg said:Nothing anyone in here can do about it, but the signs are already pointing to him not being the guy. The team not showing up ready to compete, poor play calling, poor clock management, slow to change. We'll see. The defense and special teams have improved, but his area of expertise is offense and that has sucked balls ever since he took over.

Year three will tell.
In no particular order...
Look, we KNEW Ty was crappy as he had a bad track record and was full of shit.
We knew Neu regressed at Colorado, and was soft.
We knew Guilby was not HC material due to Cal.
We suspected Sark was more self promotion than coach, and time proved us right.
(Of course, Lambo started with great talent and proved himself not capable.)
In each case they weren't improving by year 3 (other than Neu who had a history of starting strong and heading downhill).
Peterman has a good track record. He inherited a soft team with really mixed talent including poor OLinemen.
The concern about him is based more on past Boise fails and that we feel he could be a better game manager.
Year 3 is enough for a coach to prove that he's the guy.
And even if he's the wrong guy, do you really want pool boy picking the coach??

I frequently reference "bringing out the plunger" in every day life and nobody gets it. Just awkward blank stares.BearsWiin said:

Are we talking victory coitus?HuskyInAZ said:
Weak sauce. I do not GAF what the majority of Husky fans feel. Maybe I'm a bit weird that way, but I'm certainly not one to follow the crowd for the sake of fitting in. A number on this bored, though, I don't think could honestly say that.RoadDawg55 said:

FWIW, my wife just said "sucks balls" again. Maybe I have a shot this afternoon. -
Next year. Next year.
