I wasn't in this thread but I was a big Jimmy guy. Thought he'd be a shit talking big balls Petersen without the stick up his ass
He is yet another exhibit in "it's the head coach"
Huff remains a riddle wrapped inside an enigma. Didn't do great under Pete. Did horrible under Lake. Resurrected under DeBoer
DeBoer > Petersen?[/b]
I'm pretty sure the answer is yes. HNMT to get his Mtn west recruits in before it's certain though.
There's nothing that mysterious about Huff imo. Pete made him look like a good recruiter. A veteran, talented OL room plus the other off-season changes made him look go (bookend NFL tackles are a pretty nice thing) on the field this season.
I never bought that he was horrible. It's just obvious that he's not great and is easily replaceable
This is the land of anything other than great means he sucks. No doubt I have posted many times that Huff sucks but that's not really the case as you point out.
There have been games where the O line sucked. Too many of them. It was nice not to have those this year. The worst O line performances were covered up by wins which is nice.
I'm an O line fanatic who hates field goals in the red zone and getting stuffed on short yardage. But again if they win NOGAF
Watching Michigan and Oregon State eviscerate their rival in the 2nd half with the run is my kind of football
Edit to add that watching Penix eviscerate Oregon and WSU in the air was pretty awesome too
Somewhere in mid season, I'm pretty sure I wrote "Penix sucks, but he's the best we've got," or something similar. Or worse.
Maybe during the ASU debacle when I was drunk and on pain pills. But still.
The whole damn team improved at almost every position during the season and we saw coaches who, for the first time in a long time, didn't seem interested in keeping up appearances, but just coached.
Apparently there's something in the air in South Dakota, that's not in Boise or Cheney.
I seriously hope DeBoer doesn't give a shit about fitting into the Seattle community, whether commuting by boat or carrying a chai soy latte into the locker room.
Fuck it. I hope he buys his coffee at 7-11 and drives a pickup truck to work. That's the coach I want at UW.
