    Butt yes, blue chip ratio still matters, and until UW becomes serious about NIL there is a ceiling on what we can accomplish. Thankfully Oregon seems committed to never reach their ceiling so for that we are grateful.

    I believe they are. That would be winning the NCG and not just playing in it. Twice.
    Great participation trophies, as always!
    That wasn’t the point of my response but you knew that. Oregon has not hit their ceiling but the commitment is there. Do you understand now or do I need to dump out the crayons?
    It was definitely the point. You even capped it off with its own special one word sentence just to be sure we got it. Clearly.

    Good luck hitting your ceiling with those pussies I saw last weekend. Your coaches are softer than baby shit too. Have fun with that.

    Now that’s more like it. Now do it 15 of the next 19 and we’re even over the last 40.
    And I was worried you guys were gonna be Nebraska classy. Thanks for keeping it real.

    Amazing that with that kind of dominance, duck is still behind 61–48–5 all-time.

    So win 13 in a row, and we're? even.

    If I did I would have known what the series record was.

    You care about stupid shit because you never win anything.

    You’d go 0-10 against Oregon if it meant 10 league titles. As would I reversed.

    This is called projection. You care so you think everyone else does. You care because UW has been worse than Oregon for the majority of your life. You probably spend a lot of time thinking about football so you have to find SOMETHING to make it worth it. For Hiai, it’s academic rankings, as an example.

    Washington being 13 games (thanks for the data point Grace) better than Oregon happened before I was born.

    Are you sick because Oregon won the 1919 Rose Bowl? I’m going to assume not but you can tell me.

    3 point gifts are Haie's favorite type. I'm happy for you little bro. This was big for you.

    Twice. As in have not hit their ceiling. I guess the crayons are necessary on this one. The only fanbase interested in hoisting participation trophies is the one that has 1/2 of one based on a vote.

    Bottom line of this thread.

    Blue chips no longer matter because those classes are not in the dogs future. I get it, lowered expectations. Maybe Fats can parlay turning around a team with talent to begin with into the soon to be open TAM job?

    I’d be more concerned about the dumbassery exhibited by Lanning. Maybe he will get better in the head coaching department, but he appears to be in way over his head.

    Point being that, of course blue chips matter. But if you coach them like Lanning does, it won’t matter how many stars his players had as recruits.

    Our fat coach has demonstrated an ability so far to get more than most expected out of lesser talent. All things being equal in the coaching dept., I’d want Oregon’s talent. But things don’t look equal to me.

    8-2 over his head POTD. The guy is a first time HC that got his head beat in by his mentor and then ran off 8 in a row before dropping a 3 pointer even with 2 dumb ass calls. He's gonna be just fine. Chip got his head beat in by BSU and did the same thing. Smart coaches learn from mistakes. Well except for J. Lake.

    Fats only has 88 more games as a HC than Lanning. He whipped his ass by 3 with all of that experience.
