Imagine that all anyone ever had to do to win our love was be good at your job. Hard to believe no one tried that before.

We? totally underestimated her when she first got hired.
Never thought she was a football president. It's clear she understands what needs to be done to fund the AD and she knows how to go about achieving those goals. -
Also on her resume, canceling the 2020 fall season.

Yeeeaaahhhhh…HCH poasters’ reaction to her hire was less than enthusiastic. We had somebody register the username @WeAreAFatLesboSchool for fuck sake.
That being said, I don’t blame people having the knee jerk reaction that her elevation was a DEI hire and that she’d continue the trajectory of UW recent presidents being indifferent or outright hostile to football.
I’m glad she’s proven the haters wrong on a lot of things. She handled the Pac12 exit to the B1G perfectly in my opinion. I’m excited to see what she does next. -
So are you saying she earned the right to have keys to the car???
Who was the original poster of the car keys? -
Yup. This is dangerously going into Tug territory, but I’m glad AMC didn’t burn any political capital on trying to fight that…never mind how an extra season would’ve played out for Lake.YellowSnow said:

I had to double check. Damone had one about we are a softball school or something akin. But yes this was Sven BoobsPurpleBaze said:

Two things are true with this lady I think
1.) she’s a total bitch
2.) she loves UW
She’s perfect for us.
Either she ran off Cohen. Or Cohen couldn’t handle her. Probably abundance.

Agree. The move to the Big 10 was an existential crisis that she managed successfully.Doog_de_Jour said:

The politics of the left coast was a losing battle once the Big 10 started it on cancelling the 2020 season. -
TD mentioned the ability to see around corners a couple times yesterday. If Cauce is indeed a ruthless bitch, she probably often wondered why UW seemed to be so often caught flat footed. This dude is keyed into a bunch of NCAA committees. He knows where the future lawsuits will be coming from and what they entail. I’m guessing that being proactive was a major factor in Cauces search and she seems to have found a winner.

I’ll give them both ZJ’s when they shit can hop.

I don’t like playing the “calling an aggressive woman a bitch is sexist” card very often, but anyone who says AMC is one in earnest are probably full of shit.theknowledge said:TD mentioned the ability to see around corners a couple times yesterday.

One of the storylines I absolutely loathed coming out of the transition to the Big 10 was some of the stuff I heard about the dynamic between AMC and Cohen. I don’t care how it went down, but if AMC had a hand in it she was doing what needed to be done and not some Mean Girls act. -
I’m sure the Hopkins situation will be dealt with.dirtysouwfdawg said:I’ll give them both ZJ’s when they shit can hop.

Agree. She evaluated the big picture and took the appropriate action from her responsibility as the top steward of the university. And did it with proper due diligence and evaluation of alternatives. Leadership as it is supposed to be done.Doog_de_Jour said:

I meant ruthless bitch in the friendliest terms possible. In no way do I think she’s a mean person or a bad person to work for. On the contrary, most everyone seems to think highly of her as an administrator and leader. If she were a man I’d say the actions were those of a ruthless fucking asshole. She runs a tight University in most all aspects. Athletics though had been a concern for years with many of us here at HCH and beyond. I want someone that will coldly assess the landscape and make cut throat decisions that benefit the university. AMC has made those tough decisions and cut ties with the P12 to the advancement of Washington and the detriment to close neighbors and frankly good on her for that. Feelings be damned! For years she was a voiceless picture on a screen or page. None of us knew her stance on anything athletically other than being a vote in the unanimous retaining of Larry Scott. Worry was deserved. I’m more than pleased that from the top down, AMC to TD to coaches, everyone seems to be pointed in the correct direction for the betterment of UW athletics. Don’t twist.whlinder said:

Not to fear, my favorite grocer, I didn’t think you were one of those people using the word in the malicious sense, more like in the “she’s a boss ass bitch! Look at her go!” kinda way.theknowledge said:

And yes, I was deeply troubled too when she co-signed to retain Larry Scott. I’d still like to ask her why she did that.
In any case, yes, I think she’s taking us in the right direction too. -
Im team Ana, just like i was team Deboer (first and right). Best FOOTBALL President in UW History. Disagree? FY! Don't believe me? Google Billy Gerberding and the pres in office when Gil Dobie roamed the sidelines in Montlake.
Exactly.
@RaceBannon knows.
Hang the fucking banner.

What is with this GIF?
I like the acting of the chick on the right as her expression goes from power to "wow, I'm about to fuck".
