    Romar is a good guy, good rep for the university, but he reached his ceiling a long time ago. If Woody wants to take the program to a higher level a change must be made.

    Fuck anybody that think that Tony Wroten was "exciting" for the year he was at the UW ... that's one of the last words that I'd use to describe how I felt watching him play.

    Romar's not getting canned after this year ... not happening.

    However, the interest is gone besides those that support him no matter what. He's got to figure out how to turn the tide. It might already be too late.

    I'm still not convinced that Woodward would fire Romar ... he's been a good enough representative for us that I'm not sure that we'd want to door.ass.out him.

    But I could see a scenario where Romar is casually asked whether or not he's interested in an early retirement.

    Was this not exciting?

    He had a lot of flaws but I'll stand by my exciting comment.

    Wroten had his moments ...

    But there was so much about him that was so non-team oriented that it was painfully obvious that he wasn't at Washington because he wanted to win at Washington ... he was there because he had to go to college for a year and decided to stay home.

    In many respects, I find behavior like that somewhat insulting.

    Being a flawed player does not mean he didn't want to win. I remember the Duke game where he was the only guy on the whole team playing with any heart and fire.

    Serious question, out of all the great UW players were any way better than Wroten their freshman year? I just wish we could have watched Wroten for more than one year, but everyone knew going into it that he was gone after his freshman year. I feel the same way about people who criticized Hawes.

    RosdDawg hit the nail on the head. Not only was UW winning with guys like Nate Rob, Conroy, IT, Bobby Jones, etc. but they were fun, exciting players to watch. Nobody, and I mean nobody can get excited about guys like Desmond Simmons, Mike Anderson, Paris Blackwell, Andrew Andrews, etc. Even CJ is not really a dynamic player. On a properly run team he would be a role player. More than half the players on this team belong on a Seattle U/ U of Portland team. Some belong at a school like Central. This all goes back to recruiting. Having to take your Plan F and G guys killed this team.

    What kills me is that Romar had a recipe for success earlier in his coaching career with the run and gun style. For a few years we were Oregon Football on a basketball court. It wasn't perfect but was great for a nontraditional basketball school. Why he decided to slow everything down and recruit a bunch of slow Guys who aren't really great at anything is beyond me
