Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Woodward and Romar - food for thought

If Woodward had come out two weeks ago and implied Romar's job security wasn't 100%, do the Huskies win today?

    Romar still is a terrible in game coach. That doesn't change.

    The last possession of the game was utterly ridiculous. It's not that difficult to design a far better play than what we ended up with.

    I've never seen worse big man play in my life. Kemp and Blackwell looked lost out there. Utterly flabbergasting how bad our front court is/was.

    No. Do you think they would have?

    But let's say Woodward turns up the heat and Romar wins one additional game, does that mean he's a better coach? Would it change Woodward's decision to keep him or not? Maybe Romar just needs more time?

    Does Romar get the boot or will Woodward give him one more season for shits and giggles?

    With Romar's contract and ties to the Seattle community you simply can't fire him.

    It's sad but true.

    But there is no excuse in the absence of a pro team in Seattle for the UW men's program not to be the hottest ticket in town.

    He gets another year. I'm not happy about it, but 2015 is over.

    I think what people are failing to realize is that Romar is aware and is currently fixing mistakes he has made. He has a new coaching staff and recruiting is getting better. He learned about going all out for Gordon, Parker, and Bird, and coming away with nothing. I'll tell you one guy who isn't questioning Romar's job status and that's Scott Woodward. If Romar was fired, he would get hired by another school in a week.

    Everybody wants the one and done's but few understand the damage they cause the program when they leave... or the damage to recruiting when they decide to go elsewhere at the last minute.

    Luckily the athletic department isn't run on emotional highs, low's and mood swings of the fan base.

    Romar has the full support of his boss.
