The PAC12 THREAD v.2

[RegentDenali]

Well let's just say I like our chances next year going down to Eugene, then with Sark leading the team in there...

Oh and get ready, with the hire Sankey returns for his senior season a shot at the Heisman....

fingers crossed he stays, but don't know if Sankey sticks around given his RB coach just went bye bye to the rubbers, and his stock is at an all time high.

 

[mcnabb7542]

Running Backs rarely win the Heisman. Washington would have to go 11-1 and Sankey 2000 plus.

I think he goes pro. Dont see him sticking around to learn a new offense.

I'll take door #1 for a 1000.00 ....

TF12!! WHo you got in PAC CCG.

I posted a pickem but nobody did it.

Line is ASU -3 1/2

Down to you and I fer champ en sech.

I remember some talk on how it was going to be set up, but must have missed the final decision.

I got the Trees!!

Would have loved to have been a "fly on the wall" at that 90 min meeting last nite...I'm sure the Dawgz laid out an impressive package for CP and his wife to mull over last night!

I have to go to work this morning, but look forward to the days postings about this breaking coup for the Huskies!

I feel all "warm-n-fuzzy" inside right now and it's snowing outside..."IT'S BEGINNING TO L@@K A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS..."!

Huskies got to unwrap a BIG package under their tree a bit early today it seems!

The conference competition is much higher, but look at what he did with mostly 2 and 3 star recruits, and pasted many of the big boys in OOC and bowl games. Imagine what he can do with 4 and 5 star recruits. Yes, the level of competition is higher, and he may end up failing to live up to expectations, but I think it's one of the best situations for him and he's got all the tools to succeed with the facilities and all the connections he has in the north west. The right team and the right time in his career to make this move. PAC North just got even tougher. Our division is going to be unreal for years to come.

It is a whole different ball game in the PAC vs the MWC. He was used to recruiting against Fresno and Utah... Now he will be recruiting against Oregon, USC, and even blue bloods. There is a big difference going into 4 star kids homes that have massive programs as options.

With that said there is no reason to think he cant do it. Extreme optimism has to be on the fanbases minds.

Coaching the players that he gets and has is not a question as he is one of the best if not the best in the Nation at doing that.

And yes, there is no doubt he timed his move perfectly. I think we all can agree that with Where Boise is today and the legacy he left there he felt comfortable enough with making the transition. It was the right time and the perfect move for him.

I respect the hell out of Coach Pete and would love to see him succeed. Only he is wearing purple so now he is public enemy NUMERO UNO

Clear skies but 20's last night. Very cold. Everything is icy on the ground, but no snow in Seattle.

As with the other PAC staffs, you not only have to have great assistants these days, but they have to recruit lights out as well. It's very cutthroat on the west coast. Pressure is on as of ink signed on the deal, although I believe his contract states he has to coach their bowl game. Guess we'll find out in week what's going to happen with that.

 

[Boise4Life]

Congrats and great hire Washington fans. It was just a matter of time. Better facilitites, better recruits, more money for him and his assistants, Pac 12 North football, the ability to compete for a playoff spot, more of a challenge, lower spotlight, mellow local media, good timing for his family with the kids grown up now. The list just goes on and on. Good luck and thanks for everything you've done for our program, Coach Pete. We owe you a debt of gratitude. You're all class, always have been and we will miss you.

 

[RegentDenali]

Wow. Already up on the electronic signs at the stadium.

It is freezing in Southern California today, I had to turn on the heater in my car when I drove into work today. Pretty sure it hit the low 50's.

 

[Ironbreaker]

Until there is a press conference it isn't official. But if this is true we got a huge upgrade. Sark who? To me this is a way better hire than Mora. Petersen had discipline and prepares his players about as well as any coach in D1.

I'm going to go bat shit jahii wallace drunk OcD full on crazy up in this bitch.

Again if it is true. Don't believe the tweets. When you read he is having a team meeting then it will be time to start the party bus.

Not a presser but a hell of a lot more credible than a tweet.

Congrats Huskies Good news and an early Christmas present it seems.

I live in Minnesota now. I win the "my weather sucks the hardest" contest.

 

[asu_08]

Great hire by UW. I think he can make them scary good next year with the talent they have returning. It'll be interesting to see how he fills out the rest of their recruiting class.
