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

Gaskin averaged 100 yards rushing per game as a true frosh?

    Bill: You did not write Oregon State. No, you didn't. My eyes deceive me, right?

    I don't understand all the hurt butts about CP. I'm a fan, and I believe we're watching him grow into a top-tier Pac12 coach. But he's not there yet so stop dumping 100% of the fault on "Sark's players" or "youth." Who brought us Smiff, huh? Maybe this is the year CP breaks through to the top of the league. Great. But he got caught with his pants down around his ankles several times in '14 and '15, because the Pac12 is way tougher to navigate week in and week out than the MW. Very seldom will there be cupcakes in Pac12 league like in the MW. And that's why CP was 92-12 and not 72-30, which is still fucking great and justifies hiring him.

    Jesus Christ, are we really arguing the MW is equal in strength to the Pac12?

    I'm not butt hurt.m I'm Puppy's brother, remember? Some criticism is warranted and Smith probably should have been fired, and the Sark excuse (used by tons on here, but not me) is flimsy. Youth was more legitimate. I agree, he's probably 72-30 in the Pac 12.

    There are people here who are just entrenched in their own narratives and thinking from 2008 or they're just trying hard to fit and be funny (usually failing) in or not rock the boat. I'm done with that shit. Tell me I'm wrong.

    Listening to Race & iDawg's podcast put things in a much broader context and explained their skepticism and cynicism. I want to see CP succeed and win championships, but I don't think he gets there with a fan base that not only accepts excuses, but doubles-down on the excuse-making and lowers standards. This is especially true of kiss-ass sports writers who want to buddy up for access and perks, and start turning the narrative away from wins and losses to how much a guy like Willingham did "off the field," which turned out to be jack-shit except alienating every last mother fucker on Earth. We've been lowering standards for 15 years, regardless of the talk. I think CP will do whatever it takes to win, but has just enough nice guy in him to put up with losers and bullshit longer than he should, and longer than the fans should as well. Hopefully this year is different, the honeymoon is clearly over, and CP is tired enough of mediocrity to make the hard decisions required to win.

    Except they aren't High School kids. They're fucking starting offensive players on a Pac12 team playing in a crown jewel stadium, doing jobs they've worked their whole lives for. The youth excuse doesn't cut it for shit coaching. And we've seen some real shit out there. In all fairness, not worse than Sark overall, but still shit. So, if you're the HC who chooses to start a frosh QB, you get the heat that comes with it when he can't hit wide open deep routes and doesn't know the playbook or chart well enough to execute basic hurry up plays.

    I believe this season will be better, Pup. And part of that is CP himself improving. 9-3 and you know why not 10+. I think we're done here.

    Turn Around?

    Before Pete: 7,7,7,9
    Pete: 8,7
    Recap: Old coach: 7 to 9. New coach: 8 to 7. New coach wins 8 using same players from old coach's 9 win team.

    Regress: to move backward, go back. Revert to an earlier or less advanced state.






    Petersen couold have easily came in and kept the Huskies at a 8-9 win team the first 4-5 years and by year 6-7 he would have had his guys and system in place. To do that he would have used Sark's team and philosophies and slowly phased the team over to his own. But mediocrity isnt in Pete's genes. He is here to build a perennial 10+ win team every year. He blew Sark's house of cards apart and started building his brick mansion one piece at a time. For Christ's sake Pete has been telling people to be patient because he knew what a giant overhaul he was undertaking. It wasnt just the players but the whole giant stink around the program that he had to change. Like Puppy has stated this is a 4-5 year deal with this season being a bonus if they overachieve.

    Why is it so FUCKING hard for people to understand why this is a process? Your eyes are as good as mine. Wait cancel that. You all have Grandpa Sankey football vision.

    @Ice_Holmvik: I get it's a process. But we're still not seeing the big, important wins. UW's been "on the upswing" or "building" or "doing it the right way" ever since 2008. It's now 2016. Sark had his best, 9 win season before he left, but everyone knows that season's schedule had more to do with win #9 than team improvement. Truth is, UW plateaued under Sark, still losing the big games and going to shit-tier bowls.

    CP is different, and recruiting is a great indicator of internal program strength. But the red flag-wearing elephant in the room is Smiff. That's the one, big decision that I question CP's reasoning on. The Tedford hire may yield positive results, but it also shines a spotlight on the truck full of "special needs" equipment and support Smiff requires, which is like dumping thousands into a jalopy car worth $500.

    Point that I agree with Race and iDawg about, is that nobody should be sporting a sweat pants boner anymore, until we see UW beating at least 3 of 4 Cali teams, both AZ's and of course, Oregon. And we can't get there with the best D in the conference. We need a potent offense, not a weak, troubled, dysfunctional passing game that makes UW one dimensional like last year.

    This could be "the year," but fans have been saying that since 2008. CP's a big boy, paid a lot of money, in his third year of doing a job he says he always wanted. It's show me time. No more boner teases.

    Sark never won 9 games.

    HTH.
    Correct. My bad. Although he'd have won the SF Giants Bowl, or whatever it was. Was it the "Kraft Fight Hunger" Bowl? Christ. I think it was.

    Uh Turd, those are the facts. This team was on par with ty's 0-12 team when Pete took over. Cyress was that bad. This team would have won 4 games last year with Sark and maybe 5-6 next year. Those are more facts.

    Precisely why ICE has HH cred. He is right there for best new poster of year. Keep it up. For newfish dipshits like Base, model your game after Ice. He looks a little deeper than most. Understands the game

    Nobody knows what's going to happen. That's the fucking point. Instead of just giving up and being as negative as possible for all 8 months of the offseason, I'll choose to see what happens. Signs are pointing to something better than the usual 7 or 8 win season. If not, we know CP is just another Boise CC coach who feasted on the NM States of the world. I'm on record as saying he's at least a good coach (probably not elite like Kelly or Meyer). If he's not fine. I'm wrong occasionally.
