Do you think this just happens by accident?

"Your very best effort." IOW, good post, and it was. A sober take.

Gerb was a good university Pres though. I interacted with him a time or two as an undergrad. Classic academis egghead.
He had some alumni pressure about the football team that didn't get a lot of press. Back in the late 80s and early 90s the football team was causing some problems on campus and in the U District. I can recite some examples, but suffice it to say there were some rough dudes playing for Washington. Quietly, Gerbs was hearing from some big boosters of the school to deal with what was becoming a bit of a side show.
Just trying to keep it a little real here lest this place become fagman.com.

Everyone come look how smart and intellectual this guy's is!
You're on a sports team forum buddy
And this team has its own stadium unlike Floridian UCLA

Lol. I hurt your feelings. I'm sorry.
I'm not sure what was intellectual about that post but you might try not acting like a jealous 15-year old girl.
Most teams have their own stadiums. Hoping you're not hanging your wool hat on that particular distinction for your sake, but it was a good burn. You can wipe your tears now, super fan. I'll tell you just what you want to hear for the next few days, eh?

Please just only tell me what I want to hear after Jedd gets worked by this dead man walking coach trying to sell all his true freshman to save his job 😂

I'm just a pessimist, low expectations loser I suppose. I think it's really HARD for a school, city, region, etc, to escape the gravitational pull of historical inertia. UW has never been a true blue blood, but rather a very solid Tier II program (i.e., top 20 all time) who can occasionally play with the best when we get lucky with the right coach and other circumstances.

Dude Wisconsin is a very solid Tier II program. Wisconsin would never, ever get to a 4 team playoff and a title game.
-
I believe all of that. He's still Judas in that instead of reeling some of that in he instead took the football program out back and shot it.
Same as it ever was at Washington. Football success breeds academic resentment since we? ARE a tier 2 academus program.
-
Wisconsin isn’t anywhere near Washington’s league historically.
-
Whatever the tiers are UW and UW are not anywhere near the same league.
