Re: The Fisching Report Recruiting Thread Sponsored by The Fisch Bowl
UW currently has the highest ranked class they have ever had in the modern era at #13
Race wondering why we arent top 5 as if the reasons arent fucking obvious. Same reason he wonder why DeBoer left to the #1 program in the history of the sport that recruits itself.
Maybe Fisch takes the next step in year 3, maybe he doesn't and PGOS fires him a second time.
Its nice to celebrate UW doing well at a foundational aspect of building a program without a bunch of bullshit about why Phil Knight funds Oregon to the extreme
Re: 13 million a year for Lane
Maybe.
He needs to win some playoff games and make a final 4
Re: Iron Sharpens Iron
People forget that the Beastquake home playoff win by the Seahawks was because they won the division at 7-9

Shocked at the number of serious responses to this post.

🚬 has the look, tone, and in-game decisions that the UW fanbase would cream over. Really most fanbases would.
He doesn't sell you on anything and acts offended at the notion that he should, and then backs it up.

Re: 13 million a year for Lane
It's a bit different in that Ole Miss met LSU's offer, yet Kiffin still left.
In fact, this seems to prove the point of those saying that money didn't matter because DeBoer was leaving regardless.

This is a thoroughly depressing thread

Re: Hardcore Husky Podcast: When your head coach is the team's weakest link
I don't know how anyone can be excited moving forward without big changes to how the offense operates.
I thought Hugh Millen covered this nicely (and succinctly, which is odd for him) on with Softy yesterday (caught it by chance).
Fisch is enamored with the pass game and WANTS to win "that way".
We have a head coach more enamored with doing what he wants than with what works and/or best suits our personnel and the situations.
That's incredibly alarming to me and I don't know how you fix that. He's not some 36 year old upstart. I struggle to think that philosophy will change.
Even if Jedd doesn't change and gets personnel to do the pass heavy winning he wants, I still want a coach that can adjust to what the situation and opponent dictate will work the best.
Last Saturday, a good coach would have seen the run game working with #24 and leaned in heavy to all flavors of that, and passes off of that, and only gone with more downfield passing that complemented that plan (play action, etc) and mixed it up once they were loading up to stop the run more consistently.
We're in the Big Ten now. We honestly should be more run-centric than we are. Great defense and running games travel very well.
I'm just not convinced we have a great head coach.
