    Pac 12 North Champs

    We beat exactly one P12 North team...barely.
    We played the two best North teams besides us.

    Ahh man we missed shit tier cuoglet, 0-3 Cal and the quook team they beat.

    Totally undeserving North champion having the best win % after conference play.

    I saw Justin Glenn on twitter and I had no idea he was affiliated with UW in an official capacity. I thought he was a former player turned cringey super fan. I found out through here that he is officially involved with recruiting.

    I posted in December that I had heard from a family friend who texts with Brandon Huffman that Justin Glenn was fucking up and a primary reason for the poor recruiting. Didn’t provide nearly as much context as @insinceredawg but I was first and turns out I was RIGHT.

    I don't want to blame Glenn because he never should have been in that position to begin with. It's the equivalent of Jimmy hiring me to be the DC. I'd have no fucking clue where to start but for that kind of coin fuck it I'll fake it til I make it. This is 100% on Jimmy. At this point I'd caution those who want KB or Will Harris fired because there's an 81% chance they'll be replaced by an unqualified intern.
    There's an 81% they could be outperformed by an unqualified intern.

    Reminds me of something Whittingham said on the P12 network after Lake was hired. They asked Whittingham if he had any advice for Lake since Whittingham kept some of the success going at Utah after Urban Meyer - and Lake was taking over for Pete.

    Whittingham said "don't change something just for the sake of changing it."

    It sounds like Lake is doing exactly that. Letting his hubris think he can do things better than Pete without fully thinking through his actions.

    Pete gave Lake a well-oiled machine. It was already running at near-maximum efficiency. Lake tinkered too much and fucked it all up.

    8 and 5

    6th in the conference in 2021 class rankings despite three top 10 national players in state
    Back to back 21 point halftime deficits at home to unranked teams

    If 8 and 5 was a smooth running machine Jimmy has nothing to worry about

    7-6, 7-6, 7-6 was an effective argument due to the sustained mediocrity. You had a significant sample of Sark- he was who we thought he was.

    8-5 is not a great argument since it was preceded by 12-2, 10-3, 10-4.

    I see a trend in those numbers

    7 - 6 would follow

    And I would have preferred you to Petersen

    But we didn't have a 2020 season
