But of course 'UDub' and 'Dawgs' have general purpose trademark. Another win for UW marketing!
Should tell you I know this from trying to make a custom Womens final four tournament shirt on customink.com but they had been contacted by UW legal team and were unable to print shirts with these phrases on them. -

I only knew it wasn't Coker because his profile picture is guitarist Tosin Abasi (and we talked about music at one point), and I highly doubt Coker listens to instrumental progressive metal.Dennis_DeYoung said:
No - we've been like 'who the hell is it?' I mean, obviously I agree with what he's saying and IDGAF about him saying it was mine or Coker's ideas, but it's just uncanny. I THOUGHT IT WAS COKER...bananasnblondes said:
Whoever it is claimed awhile back that they are a former college player and local coach but they literally parrot everything Coker says on here, usually on the same day he says it. That's why I assumed its him. He even has his own 3-tier system for measuring recruits and ranks them identically to you guys. I just assumed it was you or him.Dennis_DeYoung said:
I CANNOT FUCKING FIGURE OUT WHO THAT IS!!!! Coker swears it's not him and it's definitely not me. REVEAL YOURSELF!!bananasnblondes said:Will you be known as @CokeGreaterThanPepsi or @bellhusky on the new site?

Good luck to you guys. I hope Coker realizes his dream of doing this full time.

Good luck but remember you will not have a band of misfits to make you look good. You will need to work for it rather than having us? slobbering over your every word...

Good luck. I hope you guys don't use vanilla boards. They blow.CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:Hello all,
I wanted to personally thank each and everyone of you for being amazing. This board has grown by leaps and bounds and I am really thankful for Derek for letting me have this forum and all of you for craving recruiting information as much as I do.
I am taking my shot, I want to see if I can do this for a living because it is my passion.
With the help of Dennis and Glad we are launching bowdowntowashington.com very soon, around Jan. 1.
I am so excited to do this and I feel now is the perfect time.
Again, I love you all, seriously. -

How long before the guys at BDTW start referring to the posters here as doogs, and shit talking Derek, and then send out old man gay porn to lure us to their site? Also, how long before Derek has a promotion for the Wam where he offers a mystery box with his unsold copies of Bow Down to Willingham? Also how long before BDTW becomes borderline racist? I have questions.

Q1: How long before the guys at BDTW start referring to the posters here as doogs, and shit talking Derek, and then send out old man gay porn to lure us to their site?
A1: It's already happened, you just can't see the boreds yet.
Q2: Also, how long before Derek has a promotion for the Wam where he offers a mystery box with his unsold copies of Bow Down to Willingham?
A2: Weeks.
Q3: Also how long before BDTW becomes borderline racist?
A3: We started borderline racism and we own it. It is ours alone. -
That's why you picked it. People are capable of that level of subterfuge, you know?YellowSnow said:

If you had odds on Coker and Dennis updating their bios before Asa Turner did, you win!

I didn't contribute this year because deep down I knew this site was coming, not because I had major dental bills and a "The Money Pit" style kitchen remodel or because I'm Arlington poor. I knew it. 2019 will be special after all!

Will we get to keep @backthepack's shitty inside info or will you guys be crushing people's souls with his misinformation on the new site?

There is clearly opportunity in multiple spaces here, much of which you fill already for free. Husky recruiting info and analysis. Husky football reporting and analysis.
You do great with the recruiting info cause you can figure out what's going on through Twitter & other social media. Are you going to start trying to talk to recruits or their families to generate #content? Luckily your competitors here are terrible at their jobs, but something has to give between speaking with recruits/families and maintaining your irreverent perspective.
In terms of reporting and analysis, Jude sucks at both. Caple is pretty good; I pay for The Athletic because of the good CFB nationwide #content. I paid for it before Caple joined and it's been better with him. I don't even know who else there is. You mentioned getting media credentials, which is probably required to do this successfully. "CokeGreaterThanPepsi" isn't getting a media credential so with real names you'll have to dial something back, I would assume.
It's awesome to turn your passion in to a business. Good luck. -
Good luck guys. The competition is STIFF. Hope you like swimming with sharks.
