It would be far better marketing to athletes if there were Peterson quotes talking about his ambitions of taking Washington to heights it has never seen before. When Rick said “Florida State of the West” that got me fired up. With Rick we never got there of course but I loved the idea of really going for it and not setting up safety nets.

I'm behind less references to Petes previous life. It's almost like the girlfriend that talks about her ex non-stop. A small and perhaps corny "branding " tweek I would like to see adopted is the term "OKG" dying and the term "OKD" being used in its place: "Our Kind of Dawg". It's applied and specialized to the UW, it sounds more aggressive, and it is something we? can rally around when kids visit, commit, and play husky football. OKG is corny, OKD is tuff.

Ladies and gentleman I present to you the 2018 Hardcore Husky Post of the Year.Dennis_DeYoung said:Look. We are fucking WASHINGTON dammit.
IDGAF what Boise has done.
We aren’t the fucking little engine that could. That’s why Pete left that podunk bullshit.
If you fucking losers think we are second fiddle to Boise - AND WE ARE ON THE LAST BASTION OF STANDARDS FOR HUSKY FOOTBALL - then seriously fuck everyone here.
I’m sick of this bullshit with you fucking morons.
Washington is a top 20 team all fucking time. We suicided our own fucking football program - but we are still WASHINGTON.
That’s why Pete is not there and he’s here.
Fuck anyone that thinks it’s okay to mention Boise in our promotional materials.
That was a fucking stepping stone job for Pete and this is the destination job and you fags can’t fucking figure that shit out.
Seriously. You guys give the same stupid opinions as Dawgman retards these days.
What did fucking Bama do from 93-05? Jack fucking Shit. Now people think Nebraska is done. Tennessee. Etc
People said Clemson couldn’t win in the ACC with FSU.
So fuck you faggots low expectations bullshit.
Fuck Boise. Fuck try-hards. Fuck being the little engine that could.
Only two teams have won 2 natties in the past half century in the PAC and its us and fucking USC and fucking Boise was always a joke.
Their big accomplishment is barely beating a team that didn’t GAF about a game.
Fuck you.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The road to the riches that you seek would only be paved by a generational QB. Getting guys like Skinny, Browning and the others signed the last 2 years won’t cut the mustard. You’ll never be able to line up against the Bamas, Georgia’s and Clemson’s of the world trading face smashes. You need an elite dual threat QB. This wreaks of simplicity but it’s true.

I think the last time I saw this much hysterics from DDY it was over how the hiring of Scott Huff was a worse atrocity than the Holocaust. Or was it about how hiring Jen Cohen was a worse decision than when he chose to contract AIDS? Or was it about how stupid recruiting Texas is a week before Curne committed? I don't know; I get them all confused. The problem with hysterics is that, although the "I told you so" is so much sweeter, the "whoops..." is ten times as embarrassing. We'll see where this one goes.
Then again, the whole point of this board is basement-dwelling dipshits getting hysterical over teenagers chasing a ball, so by all means carry on!
As for Petersen Twittering out Boise stuff, A.) this is way less concerning than the annoying pimple in my ass crack, and B.) doesn't it seem to be the case that "Chris Petersen at Boise" is still a stronger brand than "UW Football"? My understanding is that 107% of football fans in the country ("the country" includes UW's recruiting footprint, so this is important stuff here) know that Chris Petersen is a badass coach who slayed giants at some tiny school in Wyoming called "Boise State." Like, maybe, 12 guys outside of the northwest know that Petersen now coaches at Washington, Washington isn't called "Washington University," and University of Washington has a P5 football program.
You can try just manufacturing marketing momentum and pitching the program, but this doesn't seem to be working. A season removed from a Fiesta Bowl appearance and two season removed from the playoffs, and nine people showed up to see the spring game, season ticket sales are hardly up, and five-star PSAs from Texas still don't know what state the school is in. The Athletic Department and football program can get all over Twitter with, "We're going to skullfuck our way all the way to the national championship, so get on board!" but it would be about as believable to those outside of King County as if Oregon State were to do it. For better or worse, "Chris Petersen the badass coach from Boise" is the star attraction of the program at the moment. I don't mind them trying to prime the marketing pump with this fact. "I won at Boise with nowhere NEAR the advantages here" is a real thing. Use it to stack classes, rack up wins, FINALLY avoid shitting the bed in big games, and then we can talk Washington itself being the draw. When the wins start piling up, the bandwagon is plum full of retard "Twelves," and highly-rated kids start knowing the program exists, fine, bury the Boise talk and act like big boys.
Or I'm FS and wrong.

Wow. Dennis is on a roll.
Here’s my take on the situation - people by and large are going to repeat behaviors and continue to say things that get them their desired result. The whole “Built for Life” rhetoric has for the most part worked for Petersen, so I’m not surprised he’s stuck with it. It’s a big part of his personal brand and parents/administrators eat it up.
However...
I do (hopefully not foolishly) believe Petersen is starting to realize that his old system isn’t going to get the program to the next level. I really think the man at his core wants to win national championships and isn’t content with a PAC-12 title here and there...if he was truly OK with good enough he would have stayed at Boise. Problem is that Pete (and most people who’ve hit a professional ceiling) is going to have to start changing it up and playing the game a little bit more. We’ve started to see those baby steps by him wearing Hawaiian shirts to recruit visits, making personnel moves, etc. But I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a two steps forward, one step back type of situation - we’ll still see some try hard white guy bullshit here and there as things evolve.
Finally, I do want to say @Dennis_DeYoung I appreciate you for being so outspoken about your frustrations. As much as I’ve enjoyed the past few years of Husky football it’s not the same Rose Bowl victories or titles. To put it another way, how would everyone feel if @Swaye launched into one of his patented Orkin Chronicle tales and it ended with, “...so I got kinda tipsy and just made out with a chick”? I’m sure his story would’ve been entertaining, but it’s not as much fun as the ones of him nailing a redhead - right?
That’s what I want for Pete and our? Huskies - I want them to seal the deal. No more foreplay. -
