Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
The coaching search has been one of the few bright spots of this century of Husky football. It's kept things afloat in a lazy rhythm of - shitty hire, can't wait to fire, and another shitty hire.
Neuheisel was an inspired hire in 98 despite the end. Won our? last Rose Bowl and got the TBS crowd fired up and landed Paul Arnold and Reggie Williams
Gilby and Ty were HORRIBLE hires. Sark was unknown as a head coach so he had that going for him which was nice. He would not have been fired anytime soon
Petersen was a great hire graded on the curve of the talent pool that the AD uses. 3 out of his 6 years were better than most. TBS guys love him although getting his guys in here didn't do much other than 8-5.
He quits and the AD makes the easy hire of Jimmy and the world comes to a halt.
At this time the entire Pac 12 decides to give up football and the sharks at the SEC and the ACC and Ohio State see the blood in the waters. The top two California quarterbacks were already at Clemson and Bama.
So we lose Emeka and JTT to Ohio State not Oregon or Stanford or USC. Other than enjoying the company here in Misery this is not good for the West Coast.
I love to fire the coach as much as the next guy but the same people still hire the next one and the folks doing the hiring don't get fired.
Jimmy could have done some things differently and had a better shot. Ryan Day clearly has something going on. As do schools serious about football.
At this point I think Husky Football is as fucked as it has ever been because I don't see a way out. 7-5 with the occasional 10-2 is our lot in life. Build the statue of Jimmy
30 years from now we can reminisce about the first round play off losses.
It's not one recruit and it's not one year. It's the last 30 years.

Petersen had the best run in the last 25-30 years for UW and still wasn’t enough.
Watched ND vs Clemson again this weekend with LDD. UW and the Pac 12 is not even remotely close
Take down your $3Million and then pass the job on to the next guy.
It's over. 7-5 in trips, then a 10-2 run with legit bowl loss to keep the Doogs hopeful, throw in a sustainability award and BAM, coach for life Lake on the lifetime pass. Or fire him, and roll the dice that Tits can deliver. lulz. Not a chance. But keep buying those Ultraboosts. LRR.
I firmly believe that the AD knows what it takes to really compete against the elites of college football and win. But, they will not commit to doing that, because the reality of competing at that level is ugly to them. They don't like the idea of bagmen, especially since they won't get backing and support of the local community (loser-ass woke Seattlites) and the shit-ass media that likes to try and dig up dirt on the program. It's much easier to be just above average... just enough success to bring in adequate revenue to support all other sports. Win a whole bunch of meaningless games to keep the interest and lose a few games that really matter, make excuses, and keep the doogs thinking that things will be better next year.
For me, personally, the 2019 night shitstorm Cal game was what finally broke my back as a fan. Made me realize that Pete didn't give a fuck and neither did the AD. So, why should I give a fuck about backing a program that is content on being milquetoast? Life is too short to try to get excited about a program that lacks true focus on winning games and building on success.
Ain't no sense worrying about shit in life which is beyond one's control. The vid was the final nail in the coffin for West Coast FB.
If Jimmy wins the league 33.33% of the time, he can stay. Beyond that I don't really care. College Football will never be what I want it to be anyhow.
The Seattle Mariners are still living off the 95 season which is beyond pathetic, no playoff games in 20 years. The Doogs haven't done shit in 20 years either, however, we* are getting shots here and there. It's keeps our Doog hearts beating.
Dawgman is full of beta cunts who bow down to nacho lovers. You miserable cunts just want to sit in the dark at anf cut yourselves. And stare at cooze in the Wam that old farts can't pull anymore.
JK, Poast more
and I be old and still kicking
We will be the modern day Wisconsin of the west with nice facilities, moderate crowds and everyone will have a such a nice time celebrating our occasional rise up the ranks to reach the pinnacle of getting knocked out during or after the first round. Cheers.
Would really help if the pac12 got rid of the boring schedule divisional north south but California schools always play each other stupid shit scheduling ~ if that is going to continue then we might as well be in the big sky conference.
