DOOMED.

It feels like you're twisting what I've said at the start of of this thread which is to say I don't care if Phil "buys" Oregon a Natty. The rules are the rules. UW could spend $23 million a roster if they got their shit together, but it's easier if you have one guy willing to make it a reality with the biggest brand in sports ball.
Phil Knight being a Duck alum is like all the dinosaurs dying in one spot if the Arabian desert. It's an accident of history and no sense (for us?) complaining about it. Some tribes just get lucky.

Look I get it, you're fully invested in your belief that Dan is a mediocre coach who just happened to get a golden ticket while Chip came in and built it up from nothing. It just doesn't happen to be true. Phil has been showering Oregon with cash for pretty much anything they could possibly want since the early 2000. Stadium expansion, practice facilities private jets for recruiting, all of that was available before Chip arrived. Dan was a first year head coach who went who 10-3. I know you guys still like to dick ride Deboer, but he could have very easily lost two of those 3 games against Oregon. Really the only reason you guys still blow him is because he beat Oregon. Hell Bill and haie are still sniffing his jock trying to taken in some of the glory on the games he wins now.

"Financial support" pre-N.I.L. pay for play era college sports is chicken shit compared to its importance now.

Disagree
The amount kids were getting would shock you

And if we're honest UW bought 1991
The only crime is not doing it more
Washington fans weren't talking like this last year. But I do believe the comfort zone for most Husky fans is to whine about Oregon or whoever is winning
Dawgman.com was filled with posters who piously stated their desire to lose rather than be like Oregon
They often get their wish

If Dan Landers wins the CFP, I'll upgrade him to GOOD coach status, and we can move on from him going 1-4 against Smith and DeBoer.
It's true that Chip stepped into immense resources but the great leap forward wasn't happening with Mike or any other random guy.
It took some chubby, unheard of mad genius from NH to shake up the game.

That's haie's line. And if you're repeating haie's excuses you're losing. You were ass raped. You rushed for less than 50 yards while they ran it down your throats for 303. You were beat as badly in that game as we were by Ohio State in 2014. They beat the shit out of both your offensive and defensive lines.

Right but you also said something along the lines of CK would have been the only time we did it the right way. Which is untrue because you were all saying it was only because of PK at that time.
Certainly you’ve realized this is real life and what happened is what happened. Phil Knight founded Nike at Oregon. Some guy randomly built a school in Los Angeles, Henry Ford turned the upper Midwest into an industrial capital and Texas is full of oil.

Well who the fuck is stopping mighty Washington for playing by the same rules Oregon is playing by now? Stop whining, it's unbecoming.
