2024 almost assuredly is tied to the 2023-2024 academic year so would include the 2023 football season
The donor question is problematic and critical …
UW has done a horrific job of attracting young alumni as part of their donor base. It's of particular concern when you think about how the most known of donors are aging and there is the potential for a void in the coming years.
I can't help but hypothesize that a byproduct of some of upper campus deciding to focus more on out of state/country students for a time being has contributed to the gaps with younger alumni. I am happy to see that part of the background of the new President is a focus on education being affordable to in-state students. That's a personal issue for me that I feel very passionately about and think that that should be a core tenant of UW's undergraduate portfolio of students. It also has obvious implications to future donor dollars.
Big picture though the donor question on the whole is one of the more critical ones and a very valid reason to look at the internal rot of the Athletic Department and the need for it frankly to be completely turned over to match what is required in the Big10 Conference. Too much of the legacy AD is tied to small level thinkers that are akin to Jen's small world thinking.
We desperately need an AD that has a big vision, an energy to execute, and one that doesn't view a lack of performance as being acceptable. Chun isn't that person.

Re: The Huskies are in the playoff race
I have the highest of standard for this program … you constantly miss that
I also have a very keen understanding of where this program sits at present in the world of CFB and the Big10
There are structural issues that need to be fixed to consistently play at the top ends of things
That starts with tearing down the Athletic Department … the same Athletic Department that you often claim that I enable and support … only a delusional idiot would ever confuse me with an Athletic Department shill
I will hand it to you though Race … you are the King of the Simpletons

Race was happy with her health insurance in 2008.
It's the single and atypical data point from which she constructs her entire argument.

Re: Washington coach Jedd Fisch stays mum about contract situation
we don't even know if Amber hates Seattle.
She lived here before when Fisch coached the Seahawks.
Either its because it was good for the daughters to have stability after 3 years in Arizona, or fisch lips is getting a divorce.

Re: We need a general tweet of the day thread
I voted for this. AOG can explain why he wants unlicensed illegal truck drivers in the US and illegals without actually passing a legitimate CDL test and with no proficiency in English. I know he means well so this should be easy to explain.

34 Illegal Immigrant Truck Drivers Arrested In Oklahoma: ICEby Tyler Durden
A two-day operation led to the arrest of 70 illegal immigrants in Oklahoma, which included 34 drivers operating a semi-truck or a commercial vehicle, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said in a Nov. 4 statement.
The arrests were made in partnership with the Oklahoma Highway Patrol between Oct. 28 and 29, said the agency. It is part of Operation Guardian, which has “resulted in the arrest of many illegal aliens driving trucks that had been issued Commercial Drivers Licenses in states with sanctuary policies such as California, Illinois, and New York,” the agency said.
In places that follow sanctuary policies, local officials refuse to enforce immigration laws or comply with federal authorities.
Out of the 34 illegal immigrant truck drivers, 26 were issued a commercial driver’s license (CDL) while eight were “dangerously driving” vehicles without such licenses, ICE said.
