Did...Petersen underachieve last year?
Three UW first-rounders
maybe only 2.5 since Peters was kicked off the team mid-season

I think Petersen was making a statement in his first year that he was going to be a disciplinarian, and he wasn't going to put up with any BS.
That may have cost him a couple of wins, but I think it will pay off in the long term.

9 of the 32 first rounders from the Pac12 ain't bad. Shows how tough the league was this year. the SEC had 8 despite having 2 more teams.

Caught a bit of the draft last night. For me the highlight was Laken Tomlinson's interview. Seems like a terrific kid. Like a Stanford player. That was a big miss for us. We did offer him. Does anybody remember how we lost him to Duke? He came across as more than intelligent enough to get past admissions.

This is quite telling...
On I believe NFLN, IIRC, Mayock was talking about Marcus Peters. He said NFL teams asked current UW coaches about Peters and they panned him. Then he said NFL teams talked to Sarkisian and he had nothing but great things to say about Peters. The Chiefs listened to the snake oil salesman and got comfortable enough to pick him.

If you can play, someone in the NFL will always take a chance on you, gambling that any character issues can be resolved.

"And only 2 schools are within 20"Â kinda pushes the envelope into WTF territory.

Bonagura's text refers to the number of U-S-C first-round draft picks since 1967, which comes out to 68. That's 10 more than any other school, and only 2 are within 20.
So maybe WTF would have been preferable, since I don't see how U-S-C's performance since 1967 could be construed as underachieving.

If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)

Was referring specifically to this year, in which SC had two first-round picks -- plus a more-than-competent QB in Kessler -- and went all of 9-4.
