The OKG Shit
Comments
-
Pete coined the OKG phrase and while other coaches don't use the acronym, every one of them looks for OKGs that fit their particular system. Moreover, there's subjectivity to it as an OKG to Sark might not be the same for Pete. Also, coach Pete has a master's in educational psychology...after learning more about him and his "way" over the last couple of weeks and seeing how he goes about his business running a program, it seems like many of his moves apply principles learned in school back in the day (and perhaps this "OKG" stuff is one of them...kinda feels like it).
Bottom line: the dude is wily and wicked sharp...stoked he's our coach.

From Petersen's press conference:
"We talk about recruiting OKG's, our kind of guys that are great character kids, awesome football players, interested in a world class degree, all those things fit."
People seem to get hung up on the fact that he mentioned "great character kids" and completely forget that he also said "awesome football players." He's not some idiot who wants to pass on great football players. He didn't do that at Boise and he won't do that at UW. -
That's exactly what it is. Never understood why peoples have been so cranked up about another throw-away coach slogan from the drop. Win The Day, Win Forever, I'm On A Boat, they all have their own. CP might be able to back it up tho.The_Undertaker said:Good post. Yeah pretty sure the OKG is some coach speak/marketing bs that was fed to the Bronco fans to make them feel better about only landing shitty looking recruits.
Everybody seems to be expecting us to only recruit 2 stars farm boys. Come on...

Bingo, RoadDawg.
I get a chuckle over all the doogs fretting over whether Petersen can hang with the big boys. They are lapping up his aw shucks routine and are worried the big bad sharks of Sark and Mora are going to eat him alive.
News flash: you do not go 92-12 at Boise fucking state (or anywhere else) unless you are cunning and cutthroat. . He is not hesitating to raid his staff or current commits. I would not be surprised if baltazar transfers to UW.
He wants to win. And he knows how to win. And it's not by only recruiting choir boys.
We are in good hands. -
It's like the retarded "Patriot Way" shit.
People think Belicheck goes for character guys/team players but in reality he's just getting the best players possible. If you can get thugs to help you win games then get thugs.
See Hernandez, Aaron for an example. -
who gives a fuck?
15 games...win or GTFO -

I would say every coach has HKG ... someone who fits the mold better than another player, maybe more athletic player.
That is what makes a 3* perform better than a 5* in certain systems.
Petersen basically said things are going to be fucked up until I can get my staff in ...
Passion needs to take some pressure up the middle and heat from the side and relax a little. -
The fucksticks at doogman have their panties in a twist over this OKG crap.

"Scott, I'm sorry but I don't have 90 minutes to sit around gabbing every day. Don't take it personal but I've got work to do. "
