    The 2 years Jimmy is coach is going to set this program back to 2008

    Be careful, this could be seen as a racist comment these days

    The only thing that has me holding out any sort of hope after Troy commits to the Ducks is that Junior Adams can actually recruit.

    The only real chance is another sleepover at Sam's house.

    Fuck COVID with a rusty cheese grater.
    Not really COVID's fault. Oregon is under the same restrictions. This all falls on Lake and his shitty hires/decisions in the off-season. Can't really tell until the class is signed but he had a fair shot in elevating UW Football this year through recruiting but he is shitting the bed
    Oh I'm not giving the coaches a pass. That doesn't change the fact COVID has neutralized ISHIT who would have been able to cover over some of the staff's incompetence without said pandemic.

    Yeah it won't be that bad. Set us back to 2003 I could see.

    You all should consider killing yourselves

    Lead by example.
    I read "lead by example" like what bullets are made of.

    Which also works.

    Was 2003 the 1-11 year or was that 2004?

    04.

    03 was the famous 12-0 special year that never happened.

    6-6

    As there any possible protest angle to recruiting? Social justice through youth student-athlete organizing?

    Best line in Moneyball... ADAPT OR DIE!

    If Lake wasn't so stubborn/loyal/stupid and hired some guys with proven records we would not be in this shithole. Instead he decided to hire a green TE coach, an assistant db coach that hasn't done much, and an assistant rb coach with a terrible track record as an oc all the while keeping two of the worst recruiters/coaches on the staff while also extending their contracts.

    i just understand the logic or thinking behind this. Yes, no one could have predicted COVID but this is the staff you are going to go with? Lake was here when Pete brought in his first staff and had to make changes. Dumbfounded Lake didn't learn anything from that.

    I was anti Lake hire from the start so you won’t get any disagreement from me here.

    Jimmy Lake wasn't ready for this. Donovan, Cato, Gregory......my god

    This is what happens when you hire a guy who's been a coordinator for three minutes and all those while having his hand held by one of the best coordinators in the country.

    It's not really Jimmy's fault he's in over his head.
    Get ready for black Helfrich
    I'll take black Helfrich if we get a natty appearance, a rose bowl blowout win, heisman QB etc out of it

    who cares, nothing matters anymore

    UW Football recent history:

    - Rapp sits out Rose Bowl
    - Pete realizes he doesn't give a shit anymore while at the Rose Bowl
    - Pete completely phones in 2019, letting antiquated assistants fester and OKs horrifying personnel decisions that directly lead to losses
    - Team is a massive disappointment, haunted by a player on Cal they didn't offer, choking to easily beatable teams, etc etc
    - Eason sucked
    - Ahmed underwhelmed/was poorly used
    - Pete actually quits
    - Jimmy Lake is hired without nay an interview.
    - Lake hires a Tier 4 NFL franchise secretarial assistant to the runnings backs coach to BE HIS FUCKING OC lmao. The ink is dry on how much of a bust this dude is
    - Lake can't recruit or close with the big boys
    - Huard reopens commitment
    - Lose a close, winnable game vs scUM in an empty Husky stadium. Dawgman idiots start the 'you can't bash him in year 1 card'

    Who knows what will happen next, but it feels like the mummer's farce is up. We're back to LambrSark purgatory.
    I dont read these bored much. But I know you do. Your comment suggests you guys are in the dark about what happened to Pete.

    Some of the long time mega boosters are now blue hairs. Their sons in their 50s are taking over both the fortunes and the boosting.

    A few of them squeezed Petersen last summer when it became apparent he was going to name Haener the starter. Apparently they came at him pretty hard.

    Petersen relented but felt violated. He never got over it.

    That's why he got more stubborn about some shit (starting the try hards over talent) and looked like he hated his job every game on the sidelines. It is why he quit.

    I wish I knew why Jimmy gave Bob a raise and extension. Maybe those same boosters need to have a talk with Jimmy.

    I heard something similar from a BSU booster friend, said rumor in Boise is we basically broke Pete and forced him out.

    It’s looking like Jimmy kept/hired “yes” men. A sign of an insecure leader.

    An insecure leader also listens to booster who tell him who to start

    Both can be true

    If this is even remotely true, the funny part is Pete STILL started and played try hards at all the WR positions and Manu over Ngata (oh weird, couch sale), etc.
