    Kim would talk shit on Don James if he was coach. Most coaches have closed practices. Saban and Urban Meyer aren't fucking worried about making fans feel welcome. Oregon has the best marketing of anyone in college football and Chip didn't open practices. Water is wet, Kim is wrong again.

    He's so worried about UW making the fans feel welcome. The games weren't all sold out because nobody wants to see an average UW team play Cal at 8 pm. If UW was a perennial top 10-15 team, every game except maybe a dreckfest against Georgia State would be sold out. Maybe it's just this board, but it seems most people are more excited about UW football now than they were the past few years. Opening practices so 150 fans can watch isn't going to do a fucking thing. Those 150 will all be sitting in the stands on game day.

    I agree 100%. Kim is stupid. Most Tyees are not so stupid.

    Who is going to take time off of work to go to practices at 8:15 in the morning when the weather sucks?

    Tequila - I plead guilty. I have been doing it for years, since my work allows me flexibility to get my work done when ready. But I certainly prefer afternoon practices....

    I first started to realize Shark was a POS from practices.

    The special teams drill was pathetic. Special team play was a disaster most of his tenure. I also waked around the sidelines and sized up the players. At 6'2" 190, and older than god, I felt like I could take a lot of these guys on.....a terrible sign. Strength and conditioning sucked as well.

    Who cares about the practices, but some things can be gauged.

    Practice is only a big deal for a minuscule number if fans and the media...and I'm being generous by including Doogman in that category. I really never GAF while living in Suckattle almost three decades. Hell, I remember trying to see the Seahawks practice at HS in the mid 90s, but not UW.

    Totally fucking disagree.

    They paid to support the past 12 years of Fucking Dreckfest football, after all.

    Yes, I agree for the fan, getting to see the players and how the coaches allegedly coach is a real bonus. Anyone watching Cozzetto coach, and obviously hearing his high volume screaming, would know he was no good, for example. Same with Sark. No organization or discipline compared to earlier coaches.

    The people who go to practices are the ones with the REAL miserable and pathetic lives.

    Simple fact, case closed, end of discussion.
