Sub K "the #1 mistake we are making in recruiting"
Did it ever occur to you that maybe, just maybe, your publicly-available podcast where you bash the former head coach, current head coach, AD, assistant coaches, former players, and current players for over an hour might actually be a bigger tool for negative recruitment than the cherry blossom picture posted by the AD.

That's the gap in the "Everything matters!", "Fan twitter works!" game plan. If that is true on the positive, it's true in the negative as well. Personally, I'm glad @Crow_T_Robot still went on rants because it's entertaining.

Wait, there’s a video of Jen-no show dem puppies doing that? I either got whooshed or I need a link.

I've criticized his takes before but his latest podcast is an absolute embarrassing train wreck. For the first 20 minutes it's all about how the coronavirus should bring us together as UW fans and we should all embrace positivity. He then mumbles through reading a 15 minute long unfunny joke about how DDY is gay and has sex with guys. Then bashes the entire program for an hour+ using about 20 strawman/ 20-20 hindsight/ false equivalency arguments
Why didnt Pete prepare 4 years ago for Emeka being too big for a west coast school?
Why didn't the UW athletic department exploit the family tragedies of McGary and Budda to impress 8th graders who got Oregon offers?
Why didnt UW force Skinny to talk to Keelle Ringo about how Georgia dumped him?
Why did UW hire a coach who went 2-14 at Simon Fraser? Oh wait. FUCK ALL YOU PEOPLE TALKING SHIT ABOUT THOMAS FORD'S COACHING RECORD. YOU DONT GET IT. HE IS A GREAT MAN AND THERE IS MORE TO FOOTBALL THAN WINNING GAMES.
I'm not joking about any of this. This shit is truly embarrassing (moreso than the Christmas tree video). -
I don’t like cherry blossoms but this video gave me goose bumps. Not like the are you afraid of the dark type ones either.

Recruits aren’t listening to long podcasts. It doesn’t hurt at all because nobody that matters hears it.

The sycophantic nature of all the BDTW guys is pathetic. They are just as bad as Kim. Sub K gets a retweet from Ford so he will like him for life.bananasnblondes said:I've criticized his takes before but his latest podcast is an absolute embarrassing train wreck.

Sub K is not wrong regarding the our AD's ineptitude with social media. Yeah, some of his schtick is over the top but his message is spot on. Like it or not, the generation of kids who we are recruiting live their lives on social media. To not be excelling in that space is at worst a terrible mistake and, at best, a missed opportunity.

They can be fed parts of it, though, as a "look, UWs own fans talk about how shitty their program is run".RoadDawg55 said:Recruits aren’t listening to long podcasts. It doesn’t hurt at all because nobody that matters hears it.
Moreso, I was making the point of the extremely tonedeaf failure to sense the irony in all this. His overarching "thesis" of all his ramblings are that UW is the greatest college football program for all recruits. That UW should be winning national championships and top level recruits should automatically pick because it has everything in academics and athletics a kid could want. Now, setting aside that that claim is inherently false (and no, it's not doogish to say that, its reality), he then spends the majority of his podcasts (especially this one) pouring over how shitty the coaches are, how shitty the athletic department is, and how everyone is underachieving.
Here's this great product, it's amazing. Go tell everyone how great it is so more people buy it. Alright, now I'm going to tell you a bunch of reasons why this product sucks. In conclusion, why aren't more people buying this product? -
Shame on Pete for adding Puka, McMillan, Odunze, getting a commitment from one of the top QB's in the country (Emeka's 7 v 7 teammate) and putting the full court press on Troy Franklin before LEAVINGbananasnblondes said:I've criticized his takes before but his latest podcast is an absolute embarrassing train wreck.

Also, Pete should have required that Skinny have told Kelee we play seniors over better underclassman.
