Mario's right, but about the wrong thing. I'm on record that three out of four of the games LAST season were fireable offenses (first and right, btw), but everyone gave a COVID pass for reasons that are still beyond me and instead bitched about the less important aspect of winning that is recruiting (see also: Oregon and USC). Some even were complimentary of the new offense (you know who you are), dooged out over big-dick comebacks (ignoring how inexcusable it is to dig 17 and 21 point first half holes in the first place), and got a boner over the ice-in-veins QB who couldn't play more than one good quarter per game or resist the urge to overthrow every deep ball he attempted.
But, no, it was the recruiting that's the real failure, not just one of many.
And, right or wrong, the language people used to express this frustration--at least here--has been a little loaded, or at least I could see how it would seem so to certain people. The word "lazy" in particular is one known to get the hackles up, yet it came up early and often, in a way that made it seem as if conclusions were being jumped to. Comparisons to Ty aren't helping those optics, either, particularly because their respective incompetence is nothing alike.
Lake needs to be fired. Today. Cohen is ultimately responsible, so start with her. New coach can choose what assistants to boot or keep. But this message would resonate better with some fans and former players if the critics focused from the beginning on coaching, hiring, and, sure, recruiting incompetence instead of, "The offense is improved, the quarterback has a huge dick, this team should roll the conference--oh, but he's lazy and Ty 2.0." -
I'll give you this, in regards to the comparisons to Ty. I have seen that a few times on here, with people quickly drawing comparison to Willingham. And I have thought, "Why Willingham? A more apt comparison is Gilby. Great assistant coaches who have no business being a head coach."1to392831weretaken said:Mario's right, but about the wrong thing.

I want to be clear: I doubt a single person here has been down on Lake because he's black. The language might have fooled some, though. I'm not surprised a black former player might be defensive.

You and I were right about the myth of the great talent
And the lazy remarks pissed me off which is why I went after that poster
Then we lost to Montana
Just keep the call for firing classy Nebraska fans -
It's just a lazy comparison that I have been guilty of as well because it's now plausible that UW goes 0-12.

Montana tuff met woke culture!
Mario can shove it. If Pete lost to Montana I would want him fired as Well. -
The lazy remarks have persisted to this day, from multiple posters. It's a consensus, not an outlier.RaceBannon said:

Why is asking if someone who happens to be black racist? It takes a lot of effort and commitment to be great at anything.RaceBannon said:

Is he lazy or is the charge unjustified? I recall Helfrich and he staff being called a "lazy" recruiters. Can you call a black person lazy if they are lazy?1to392831weretaken said:

Excellent post. I've been right there with you since being underwhelmed by the comeback wins to shit teams. I was close to quitting the Huskies, even bought Seahawks season tickets (I've hated the whole 12 thing, but I'm thrilled with this decision), after we didn't send a squad to the P12CG. And I've basically stopped posting here as grandpa Race tried for the first time ever to LIPO.1to392831weretaken said:Mario's right, but about the wrong thing.
