They are onto the family killer

This is right where I'm at with Judd. I think the infrastructure build out and his ability to get the admin to invest in his idea of a top flight program has been really encouraging. I think the roster building has been really solid as well. McLaughlin, Al Uquda, Alexander and Willis were good portal pickups at positions of need. The staffs ability to identify single last name and hyphenated HS talent appears to be pretty legit. Mills, Robinson, RDA, Roebuck, RVB, ZRS and Lawson all true freshman and all playing a lot, seem to have very bright futures at UW. The players that play for Fish all seem to really enjoy the experience. When you are a program that has a pretty decent, not massive NIL budget, that can come in handy with retention of talented players. Judd seems like a guy that needs a talent advantage for his schemes to really work though. He has a ceiling. He's not a Jeff Brohm that will rise up and beat a team clearly above his station. If the trajectory of the roster continues on this path though then UW should eventually have enough talent in the B10 for Fish to go 9-3 to 10-2 every year he's here. This year, somehow, if he beats the three bad teams remaining on this schedule they could be one of the least fun to watch 9-3 teams in the country with a shot at 10-2. Are you kidding me? I'll take that, cobble it together any way you can. For a team that had 40 players on the roster when he got here 20 months ago I'd chalk that up as a good sign for the future. If Cigarette hadn't lit the world on fire Judds work at UW might look a little better. Ifs, buts, candy, nuts, you and I both know the drill.

Regarding Fishstick’s wife moving back to Tucson with their kids, I’m not too worried about it. I think his oldest 2 are in high school and Arizona was probably the first time they spent more than 2 years in the same spot. Even the Army recognized the value of having your kids finish high school where they started and lets dudes choose to homestead at the same assignment if they have high school aged kids.

I hate everything about Minnesota and we don't even play them in this retarded conference.
They're a more hateable Utah in some ways.

Speaking of BONEM, did Manu sit out yesterday?
-
indeed he did. Saving that redshirt. Allegedly
-
I have no problem with hating things. Just curious why Minnesota? And how are they comparable to Utah?
-
Minnesota is very high on power conference teams who register almost nothing for me. I can barely think of a few guys who have ever played at that program and coaches other than Boat Rower. Has UW played them since the 59 Rose Bowl?
