Are you old enough to remember when Neu coached at CU (that's "Colorado").HeretoBeatmyChest said:
The predictability of the metrics is stronger than that of anything else. He won 1 Rose Bowl. Big fucking deal. He took over 3 programs and they were all worse by the time he left.TierbsHsotBoobs said:
How many Rose Bowls have the metrics won, smart guy?HeretoBeatmyChest said:The metrics show that Neuheisel is/was a terrible coach. At UCLA he went 81-49-65-71. Mora takes that to 30 and 6. No fucking way would UCLA be as good as they are with Mora.
Pop quiz: who took over when he left?
That proves Boob's point - look it up -
Neu beat Oregon. Nothing else matters.Baphomet said:Kinda sounds like Sark.
But with a Rose Bowl win.
He was 2-1 against Oregon. Should've been 3-0. -
"He won 1 Rose Bowl. Big fucking deal."
Whoa there. -
UW's record his last year was better than it's record the year before he arrived. So obviously you're not using last season record to determine "worse by the time he left".HeretoBeatmyChest said:

And if you're saying "the metrics" say his last team at UW was worse than Lambo's last team than "the metrics" you are using are wrong.

SCOREBOARD BABY!!!!!!!!!!! -
7-6 > 6-6 Is that what you're saying? I'll never understand the Rick defenders around here.dnc said:

+56 point differential > -40 point differential
Sun Bowel > Oahu Classic
By any measurement 2002 was a better team than 1998.
More importantly Chest made the claim that everyone of Rick's teams was WORSE than what he took over, which is just not arguable in the case of UW. You could maybe argue it was equally mediocre (though I'd disagree), but there's no argument that it was worse. -
Sark is better than Ty, everyone says so.
Rick peaked higher than Lambright, Ty, and Sark for sure, but the trajectory of the program was clearly down when he left. He might not have lost 11 or 12 games, but it's fs to defend such a thoroughly mediocre coach. -
I was countering the claim that UW was worse when RN left than when he came. It wasn't.doogsinparadise said:Sark is better than Ty, everyone says so.

Sounds pretty hypothetical, on the scoreboard they were 7-5 in Rick's first year, and 6-6, 1-11 under Gilby. What improvement?dnc said:
