    I mean sure, but I don't think a new AD will change much. We are not a school that is is serious about sports, and we don't have a Phil Knight that demands sports be taken seriously. Its hard for me to say that getting rid of Cohen will solve that problem.

    We are fundamentally broken, and content with being an above average program that never really does anything.

    WSU has made better hires with far less resources than UW. Cohen needs to go, first.
    Who is going to fire her?
    Pete for AD?
    Again, how? Do you think President Ana Marie Caus is going to fire a woman AD that she hired?
    Maybe she can move the fuck on, take Larry Scott’s place

    I see Jen Cohen as similar to one of those women who can't stop talking about how much of a Seahawks fan they are.

    They always dress up for "blue Friday" at the office
    They have 10 different colors of Russell Wilson jerseys
    They put Seahawks shit all over their car
    They have a 12 flag on their house
    They do their family photos in Seahawks gear
    They have Seahawks parties at their house every GameDay and advertise them throughout the week

    When the game is actually on, though, they sit in the other room and talk to their friends about clothing or celebrities or any other gossip... popping in a couple times to ask how the game is going.

    Terrible take.

    This is key. What is success to Ana Mari Cauce in athletics? I find it hard to believe that the current dumpster fire would be deemed unacceptable at her level, unfortunately.

    Rolo does intrigue me. I think he'll be fine but he's not in Kansas (hawaii or nevada) anymore.

    Dilbert principle...Jen will get promoted to Pac12 commissioner and whatever politically correct AD replacement will right the ship in a conference that is falling to pieces.

    The fact Jen wasn’t even smart enough to get into UW should have been a pretty good indicator that she might not be a crack CEO of the department...

    Jimmy’s in way over his head and frankly he’s facing way too many headwinds at this point to reasonably expect to turn things around ... and that’d be true even if he knew what he was doing

    That said, the most pressing need is for Jen to be removed as AD

    Reality is that Jen’s far too dangerous and irresponsible to make the next hire (and that’s true in a number of sports)

    He won the P12 North in his first season as a HC with a new OC and new QB and 3 out of 5 new starters on the OL.

    What exactly are you saying needs to be turned around?

    Sure it would have been nice if Covid didn't prevent us from playing Oregon and playing in the Pac12 championship game but that is above his pay grade.

    It's a bit early to predicting an off season 0 and 12.

    Did I get whooshed here? Fire Jimmy and Jen? Though a stellar idea - a woman and a person of color ain't getting fired any time soon short of absolute scandal and pics of having sex with infants.

    That's simply the tims we live in, folks. 7-5, 6-6 is good enuff.

    Stating the obvious. Don't twist.



    You didn’t. While recruiting is obviously not going as well as it was 2 years ago, it’s not as bad as many here claim. Top 20 by avg star rating is not terrible the last class. Having a small class keeps the ranking lower.

    The company line here tho is that the program is dead. Doesn’t matter that what you said about on field performance kart season is fact. This group was funny before. Now it’s gone too far negative in my book. But whatever works.

    If this fall UW didn’t win a north title and more with this talented roster, then it’s time to panic. Until then, I don’t get it.
