I am a longtime football season ticketholder and Tyee donor. I haven’t missed a UW home football game in 26+ years (seriously). I also try to attend at least one road game a year, at some expense.

During your AD tenure, I have traveled to six road games:
  • 11/05/16 UW @ Cal W 66-27
  • 12/31/16 Peach Bowl UW vs Alabama @ ATL L 24-7
  • 11/10/17 UW @ Stanford L 30-22
  • 09/01/18 Kickoff Game UW vs Auburn @ ATL L 21-16
  • 10/27/18 UW @ Cal L 12-10
  • 10/05/19 UW @ Stanford L 23-13
Five losses in six trips. Three of which were among the most humiliating “no-show” upsets in our lifetimes.

You have achieved much during your AD tenure. Football has enjoyed a good deal of success, and certainly dramatic improvement, during these years. But this “no-show” upset trend is alarming, and it requires answers: Why does this keep happening? And what is being done—today—to make certain it doesn’t continue?

    I don't think she gives a shit about your woes.

    Substitute the Fiesta and Rose Bowls for the Kick off game and Stanford this year and I am right there with you.

    I don't think she gives a shit about your woes.

    Obviously this will fall on deaf ears as she doesn't give a fuck about us degenerates, but it's beyond stupid to believe that she doesn't care about fan input

    She's obviously not going to listen to individual fan input, but as a collection of course she is.... She's done a fantastic job so far, I have no reason to believe she won't do the same going forward

    However, barring losing like 3 games in a row or something (I'd doubt it even then), she won't address it until the offseason, which is the right thing to do

    We're* 4-2

    A nip slip would be a show of good faith.
    I'd prefer the allure, I don't think I could respect her afterwards



    Unless it's amazing in which case I couldn't respect any solid moves as AD because, well, I have a one-track mind

    Careful.

    Lose to Arizona and a 4 game losing streak is possible because Oregon and Utah will run the ball consistently.

    Why would the AD at USC give a shit about UW fans?

    I think Pete would deserve such a losing streak. Maybe this would actually wake him up. Yeah, who am I kidding? He'll probably blame a 100 different things instead of looking in the mirror.
