My Thoughts on Saturdays Gayme (long)

I'm off of Pete's wagon until I see some type of change in the offense. This shit is ridiculous. We don't even have a clock control offense to excuse the low point totals. We just have a shitty offense PERIOD. Willie Tags FS Gulf Coast Offense puts up more points than this shit. Take a moment to appreciate that.

Come join the dark side

As I've stated, Pete would have to not only have the wheels come off but burn the fucking wagon to get fired at UW at this point. Calling for his firing is just going to have people tune you out.[/b]

@FireBush has a really good chin to downvote ratio at this point though and is picking up steam. Even the doogs are beginning to realize the offense is doogshit.

And candidly it would be the dumbest thing Jen has ever done.

It is very hard to hire the right coach. It's an odds game and the numbers are stacked against you getting it even remotely right. As we're seeing now, even coaches who've summited Olympus often fail miserably or are mediocre at the next gig.

Just based on the maff, if UW were to fire Pete I'd bet half my retirement that the next guy would be a complete bust and everyone would be crying to get him back.[/b]

Nope. Roll the dice again.

That example shows me a decade of shit after Switzer, and lucky af with Stoops (retiring right?) to Blake.

And that's Oklahoma. There is a broader band of top level talent that will coach there than the cohort who would take the Washington job.

It's hard.

It shows top programs don't always get their hires right, but they don't settle for mediocrity and keep moving on until it happens. Picking coaches isn't sure fire but if your fans demand success you keep trying. If we ever get rid of Petersen, I'm not going to let the next guy's success or lack there of make me regret making the right choice.

As far as what coaches would take the Washington job, we can hire pretty much anyone who isn't already successfully entrenched in a major program. We can hire anyone we need to.

Plenty of coaches would love to come take over a roster stacked with over 50% blue chip kids.

But realistically this isn't a conversation we having until the end of the 2020 campaign by rationale HH poster standards. And Pete would have to have gone 3 years in a row of 7-5 by 81% of our fan bases standards.
