    You know your program is in good shape when you lose perhaps your best assistant to Iowa State....on a lateral move.

    Nothing to see here. In Romar we trust.

    Not leaving to go to Iowa State, leaving to go BACK to Iowa State.

    And generally speaking based on my experience, when you start seeing good people leave an organization, it's a slamming indictment on the existing leadership and the faith that people have with said leadership's ability to get the job done on a go-forward basis.

    Don't misconstrue this, but what makes coach TJ "good people" aka a good coach?

    The team sucked while he was here.

    Not saying that's his fault, but does this even matter?

    To respond to both, I don't think it's a lateral job at all. Iowa state has been good and is building. UW is going into the dumpster and TJ knows that they will have no posts, and mainly young guys to try for one more year. At that point, generally most assume romar would be canned and TJ would be out of a job.

    He was "good" people, as in, he was a well sought after assistant especially in recruiting. Maybe seattle wasn't for him, but my guess is that he was offered a job at a program that isn't in a dumpster fire and would prefer a better experience.

    Pretty sure TJ was on the staff to recruit. And this incoming class looks to be better than we've seen in a long time. So losing your best recruiter.....yes, it does matter.

    As has been discussed a million times already, recruiting isn't really the issue.

    Actually, it's a huge issue. Here's a few reasons why:

    Quevyn Winters
    Tristan Etienne
    Gilles Dierxks
    Jahmel Taylor
    Mike Anderson
    Mark McLaughlin
    Andrew Andrews
    Jernard Jerreau
    Hikeem Stewart



    I'll counter with the list of 1st round draft picks and NBA players that I'm too lazy to type out.

    Though I wouldn't include Andrew Andrews in that list and Jerreau could end up being pretty good if he stays healthy.

    What's Ken Bone up to? Could do worse than bringing him back.

    I think you all are misstating the wording and arguing semantics. Recruiting isn't the issue, talent evaluation is the issue. Romar and company have been targeting players that no other pac12 schools are going for. You know what's common with every guy on the list above? None(outside maybe tristan) were recruited by pac12 schools seriously. UW was competing against the likes of san jose state, tulane and schools like that for most of these guys. Our current roster is filled with very few players who had legit high end offers(ie committable).

    When romar actually locks into a player he isn't a bad recruiter, but he and his staff have been horrendous at narrowing down talent which can play at the pac12 level. Whether that's laziness(which i don't believe) or just lack of a true direction of the program and how to fit players to romars new style.
