Rainier Beach / Garfield fallout poses threat to UW future

DDY is right about this being a perception issue for Pete. The good news is it’s an easy fix for Pete to get out there in front of the coaches and explain his process.

Wasn’t I forced to wade through this DavidDawg-like all-cap-fest right here in a gay thread yesterday? Front page?

Precisely THIS.Houhusky said:
Unfortunately they do, those offers are 100% grade A bullshit and the coaches know it, the ADs at the high school know it but the idiot parents, admin, and younger players don’t know it.Meek said:so those ceremonial non-committable offers really make bitchy little high school coaches happy?
At the end of the year the coach gets to put how many different total scholarship offers his team had, total dollar worth of the scholarships and if he loses some games can still point to how many players are playing in college or received div 1 offers.
It’s fucked and meaningless and stupid but coaches and athletic directors use “I had 5 players with SEC offers” to protect themselves from parents and school admin that don’t understand what is actually going on.
Those positions are just as much political as they are competency driven, and a local school offering “your” players scholarships is just another round coaches use to promote and protect themselves.
Example; Under Sark or Ty they could say “I have 7-10 players with offers to UW” now they say they have 2-3... idiot parents and admin see the decrease and assume the coach must be doing something wrong. -
UW is an elite offer. These schools rarely produce elite talent. This isn't front page news...

Can Cohen clean house at farm teams too? She is batting a pretty high percentage right now.

What DDY - God Love Him - doesn't realize, is how Willinghammy his rationales are. Perceptions from the black coaching mafia, their media acolytes and their "only black coaches get me" athletes are what put that fucker in the Head Coaching seat at UW. Yeah, sure, black culture matters. I get it. But like Thurgood Marshall once said, "It don't matter whether the snake is black or white, they both bite." Making it entirely about "blackness" - which is the road DDY is on, is useless fucking nonsense. Look no further than the men's BB team to toss that "only black coaches get me" shit right out the window. Sorry, DDY, but IDGAF about a shitty program like Garfield snubbing their nose at UW. O'Dea will be beating their asses into the ground for the next two decades just like they do now. And so long as we get the Gaskins, we'll be fine. Only a fucking fool would bend and stoop to Joey Thomas's level to coddle his players who aren't smart enough to see him for the charlatan snake he is, as he pollutes his players heads with self-serving, self-aggrandizing bullshit.

Having scribed the above, I look forward to the curse word-filled screed DDY will retaliate with. DDY is always funniest when he's angry. And drunk.

This whole saga is some doogman shit. Get it off the front page. Everyone, myself included should have ignored this shit. It’s a hs coach making a dumb comment on Twitter. Even he said people we getting extreme with it. A 7 page thread and putting this on the front page makes this site look stupid.
Remember when we used to make fun of doogman and dawgpound? This is just as bad as the shit they have pulled.
Maybe there is some underlying bitterness towards UW, but it was to promote some players going to Eastern that certain high school coaches think are pretty good. -
Perhaps this will kill it.

Dennis is a liberal who believes affirmative action is a good idea. Therefore UW needs to set aside schollies for try hard WA guys instead of go after and recruit the best player you can get.
Dennis likes to think that.
