You guys are all wrong. Look at the numbers Donovan is a plug and play for the offense. UW won't miss a beatGrundleStiltzkin said: -
How in the helll did he coach penn at to 20 and 23 pts/game in modern college football. This hire is so fucking retarded. If he had gone somewhere and reinvented himself having success as a position coach i would get it. But he didn’t.
Anyone think Adams will be the OC by the end of next year? FML
I was thinking of flying out for the Michigan game, now I will just go to my kids flag football game instead. -
This hire is worse than when Willingham became coach

This. He was an assistant coach to a position that isn’t even important coaching wise. Nobody gives a fuck about RB’s and knows it’s probably the most “get by on talent” position in football. The main concept of RB is to run where they aren’t and get upfield.AtomicDawg said:How in the helll did he coach penn at to 20 and 23 pts/game in modern college football.

If you guys never watched those teams it was a slow motion train wreck. The 2014 Penn State team allowed just 4.1 yards per play, SECOND IN THE NATION, and went 7-6. In four of their six losses they allowed 20 or fewer points in regulation.AtomicDawg said:How in the helll did he coach penn at to 20 and 23 pts/game in modern college football.

Then in 2015 they had again a top ten defense and added Saquon frickn Barkley and went 7-6 again.
Franklin managed to go from up and coming hot young coach to nearly disgraced and on the hot seat and then intto consideration as an elite coach very quickly. -
I've slept on it. This is honestly the worst hire Jimmy could have done. Failed retread that isn't even good enough to get a real job in the NFL. We just hired an NFL analyst who was fired from his previous job as Power 5 School OC for poor performance.
Just a fucking miserable job Jimmy. Go fuck yourself. -
Phil Snow was the D Coordinator for UW in 2004. We hated him.
Phil Snow was the D Coordinator at Baylor in 2019. Baylor fans love him. The fucking Panthers want him to be their D Coordinator in the NFL.
Sometimes guys learn and improve over time.
Not saying I love the hire... but hey, maybe the guy has learned a thing or 2 over his tenure and is ready to take it to Montlake. -
I did not hate Phil snow. Team had a lot of problems, he was not the problem.
-
I didn't hate Phil Snow. He was one of the few bright spots from that team.

Oh trust me, like any team that endures a 1-10 season... gripes about the D coordinator giving up 35 points a game against P5 opponents were all around. Cool you guys didn't take that stance... but he certainly wasn't a popular figure.

Part of the reason they gave up points was because the offense was so putridBroadcastingDawg said:Oh trust me, like any team that endures a 1-10 season... gripes about the D coordinator giving up 35 points a game against P5 opponents were all around.

32.5, butt still, it was bad for sure.BroadcastingDawg said:Oh trust me, like any team that endures a 1-10 season... gripes about the D coordinator giving up 35 points a game against P5 opponents were all around. Cool you guys didn't take that stance... but he certainly wasn't a popular figure.
I liked Snow a lot when RN hired him and thought he did a pretty good job in 2003 besides the Cal game (we always lose to Cal!) all things considered.
I couldn't even have told you he was the DC in 2004. I didn't care about anything but firing Gilby at that point. -
I remember the Oregon game the defense played their balls off and finally wilted. There a lot of pick sixes that year and our offense was a 3& out machine.DerekJohnson said:

Maybe this all turns out okay, but that doesn't make it less of an epically (sp?) bad hire. Just a miserable fail.
A fucking NFL "analyst!" Analyst in the NFL is code for "shitbag who isn't good enough to coach so we let him analyze film for guys who are good enough to coach."
It took us 3 weeks to land on this clown?
Husky Football: Always expect us to take longer than usual to end up at a retarded conclusion anyway!
Fuck this team. Anyone have napalm? -
A reminder this hire of highly sought after assistant RB coach by first time head coach whose network could use broadening was made immediately before something referred to as the "national coaches convention."GrundleStiltzkin said:

Had to make this hire ASAP, he had a lot of buzz around him. If they waited, he'd have been gone for sure. -

I don't disagree. Obviously upside means uncertainty (downside is the same uncertainty). There is uncertainty that he has grown in all the doogish ways people call out. The reason why I think this is LIPO is because there is a real (not a likely chance but a chance -insert dumb and dumber.gif) chance of this. He has the past experiences and context in the role to actually learn from those around him to have actually improved. Sure, odds are against this being the case and him being successful. Donovan would not have been in my top n-choices. I don't trust that Lake knows something we don't but I'm hoping he does. I am confident he thinks he knows something I don't.RoadDawg55 said:
There isn’t another choice and hopefully it somehow works out but it’s worse than anyone expected. A position coach from the NFL would have been okay.Mad_Son said:
We were just clowning the QB coach of the 49ers. This is a dud hire that if past results are anything, will be a huge failure. -

Phil Snow had actually had success. That team was fucked from the top down. No assistant could have saved it.BroadcastingDawg said:Phil Snow was the D Coordinator for UW in 2004. We hated him.

I tried this 9 tims. Good luck.Mad_Son said: -
Low ceiling, low floor, zero upside
Could have hired Rick Nueheisal and got sweet guitar solos on the sideline at least. -
Yeah but you're Utah so there was no point in trying to begin with.89ute said: -

Offense looks creative but also concise & purposeful.whatshouldicareabout said:

Donovan was the OC/TE coach at PSU. Why not do the same here? Hire a young, hungry QB coach to grow that position group. Joe Brady is the QB coach at LSU right? He helps the LSU lifer OC scheme and call plays. We have a former DB coaching our? inexperienced QB's? I'm at a loss. Whatever Jimmy. You are obviously waaaay smarter than this grocer. Good luck.
