Yes but the Indiana coach got there in time to get decent players out of the portal. Fisch got to UW when they were all snatched up (o-line).

Look, I'd take Cignetti right now in a heartbeat. I just don't think it's that cut and dry between the two. I think we'll find out more about Cig after he plays Ohio State and whoever they play after they close with Purdue (that schedule, my god).
A couple more excuses to burn to me with Fisch are:
- Not being able to retain like one player it seems had other comparable options, especially on the OL. As I've said in recruiting where it's hard to get past mediocre if you can't find ways to wind some battles you shouldn't, he really needed to find some ways to get more guys to not bolt.
- The whole he didn't have the winter portal window thing. I really have doubts he was pulling studs away in that portal and at best probably comparable with the layups DeBoer brought in. Also, there was some talent in the spring portal to snag, namely a LT we couldn't possibly keep away from Missouri and a local center from Utah who ended up at A&M. Oh, and every single player on UCLA who is about to play us tough.

It isn't cut and dry. Go look up who here brought from the December transfer portal that weren't JMU guys. Namely the QB that's lighting everyone the fuck up with a dislocated thumb.
Taking everything into account Cignetti does seem like a better hire than Fisch right now, but we absolutely need someone who's going to win and replentish talent and raise money. You can't just do 2/3 and that goes for Fisch too. And maybe Cignetti continues to kill it in the portal or gets recruiting going in some other way.
I just think it's a dumb argument when you factor in the worst rule in college football right now besides the unlimited transfer count per player.

Bottom line: is UW better today than it was in week 1?
Fuck Fisch.

UCLA is

Oh don't worry they're about to renovate it and NFL-ize it. $700m investment. Starts right after this season ends. Club seats and suites coming soon (or expanding).

Well, we went from losing to WSU to beating USC so going by tradition, yes they are technically better.
Not that I think this season was some kind of success given the circumstances, because it wasn't. Shit coaching jobs against WSU, Rutgers, Indiana, and then you have to look competitive in the other 2 losses. You rewatch the condensed Penn St game and our DL, namely the 6th year guy and Valdez look like they aren't even trying, or they're so gassed that they haven't been conditioning properly.

USC sucks more than UW does
-
you think USC is good?
-
The "yeah but USC sucks" shit is for cougs and quooks.
USC with their 15 million/year coach that everyone wanted and immediately announced them as a b1g d1ck program for getting.
Goddamn right I'm going to give credit for that win. Wasn't that long ago that they were a conference favorite after beating LSU. Brands matter more than ever.
