Makes a lot of sense

Hire a nobody
Disclose it quietly. Even ESPN has yet to cover it
Media and fans have a TON of questions
And don’t do a press conference to explain the decision or to get the fans excited about why.

This is the aggressive strategy that Lake has instilled in our culture

Can’t wait in a few months when Jimmy starts landing recruits, people will be back on his side.

I'm more interested in whether or not he can win with those recruits.

There are plenty of programs that waste a lot of talent... USC, UCLA, etc.

I'll only be on Jimmy's side if he wins games

I always knew he could do it!

I hope (and think) this is true.

Been a rough couple weeks.

Naw fuck that. We recruited extremely well. Let’s get some wins before we get back on his side....

From your posts on here, the past two days took you to the same dark place we all went.

We're all on Jimmy's side, we want to succeed. Will he win back confidence when he starts getting the big commits, of course. But that's all gone if we get boat raced by Michigan or we go 7-6.

If he actually signs the monster 2021 class, I'll shimmy for Jimmy, because that means he at least just went 10-3. Those kids ain't signing here if we're any worse than that.

How about beat Michigan?

Couldn’t give two shits about that. Win games. This move makes it more unlikely if we use past results as any barometer of future success.

I'm just saying that will get fans more excited. A recruit like Troy Franklin commits to Washington in the next three months, the enthusiasm goes back up. Then comes the Michigan game which will dictate if it's kept or not. As far as me, my feelings have not changed with Jimmy. I'm still in wait and see mode and won't form a opinion until next season is over.

Beating Michigan and winning 10+ would go a long way. I’m just having a hard time seeing that happen and have predicted all along that Jimmy won’t match what Pete did.
