I'm over it. Fire Peterman. He is not who we hoped he was. Experiment is over. Time to get a new Coach or just go all in on Just a Bit Better Than Sark for life.
There is no one better.
He either evolves or we continue to suck.
This. Don’t be dumb and pretend there are tons of great coaches in CFB. We have a good one that gets in his own way. He needs to stop being stubborn and realize the stupid shit he does. There is no reason a smart guy like him can justify some of these decisions.
Exactly.
Right now UW has a coach with an elite infrastructure and foundation. Player development is there, strength and conditioning is there, and recruiting is there.
The thing that is missing is in game shit, and it's because he's fucking stubborn and believes his own shit to a fault. He needs to learn, and fucking adjust. And maybe, just maybe, a year in which everything lined up but went completely sideways because of his own fucking faults will make him evolve.
Everyone who wants to #FirePete is feeling this way only because they expect more from him. For once, we have a coach that everyone expects to win a championship. That is where this frustration is stemming from. If we had a shit coach, no one would be pissed because we wouldn't have expectations.
I just can't join the #FirePete movement, because I am un-fucking-willing to go through more Rick, Ty, Sark fucking shit. I'm not going to cycle coaches every 3 years in hope of finding lightning in a bottle or the "Next" unproven coach who becomes elite. I am un-fucking-willing to be USC or UCLA just cycling through coaches preying they return to glory. That is why USC is talking about Urban. He's proven to be elite. They can get him because of who they are. They are tired of looking for the "Next guy".
We can't get Urban. But we do have Pete. We do have a coach that wins 10 games year in and year out and competes for conference titles. Pete has shown a history of changing, it just takes him fucking forever. There is less of a chance of finding the "Next" unproven coach who becomes eliete than the chance of Pete evolving.
Either Pete evolves and we win championships but it likely takes a few years, or I die watching fucktarded coaches fuck up the best talent that we've had in years and the elite talent that is coming over the next few years.
But if you think firing Pete and being the next USC or UCLA cycling through coaches and going through another decade of futility, then you're just fucking wrong and you're letting your emotions (which are valid) overrule your logic.
Which is par for the course at HH, so I'm surprised I'm surprised.
