Problem is you fire him for this then it becomes your standard. Then you have a coach you like that does this and you will cry foul when he gets told to leave. Better off paying the millions in buy out.

You use this as a way to negotiate a lower buyout behind closed doors. The incident is the hammer in your case the losses, coaching hires and offensive ineptitude are your nails. If Jimmy doesn't agree to walk away post season they let him know they WILL fire him for cause tomorrow and yougetnothingGIF. Jimmy decides after the options are set in front of him to step away after the season for personal reasons or some other bullshit reason. UW gives him half or a quarter of his buyout and this incident isn't mentioned ever again by the university. Cohen then has months to look for a replacement without media or fan pressure and Jimmy can go and get another DC job without player abuse being an issue. Everyone wins.

Problem here is your theory has rational adults in the room. Doesn't seam to be the situation. Are you putting your money on Jen to figure this out

Jimmy should have shown some comportment and locked Fuavai in an equipment shed on Monday.

Of course not. This was just my grocers logic. Welp, those can ain't gonna stack themselves, gotta go. Would you like a bag today? They are eight cents now. Kill me.

Another aspect we are perhaps underestimating is the fact that Lake has flat out denied having struck the guy - no contrition or any remorse

He could have seriously blunted this in the after game presser with some level of “hey, I got a little animated and probably reacted too strongly, etc.” - but as usual, doubled and tripled down on his own bullshit. I suspect that is why we got the sort of belated Cohen statement as she started to realize where this story was going to go media wise.

Gonna be very hard for him and Cohen to craft the get well story here - he’s going to apologize this week after flat out denying it? Suspend him for a half, for something he says he didn’t do?

Even @GrandpaSankey saw Jimmy lose his shit.

We also don't know what other bullshit Jimmy has perpetrated behind the scenes that could be tacked on to his on-camera shoving. If UW decides to they want Jimmy gone for cause and he takes it to court the university may have a ton of backstory that could be made public. Jimmy might be fine with a reduced buyout instead of fighting.

Also, what his statements and justifications are in private meetings with Cohen will be part of a decision based on just cause. He's a liar so I bet he's been caught lying about stuff in the past.

fuck jimmy lake, but if people are crying about a coach swatting a player and pushing him then fuck you too. no wonder this school is a pathetic sack of shit. everyone involved with it including the fans are whiny bitches.

You’re not understanding the opportunity. Do you think the Tennessee fanbase actually thought schiano was involved in covering up the Sandusky scandal as an assistant at penn st when they revolted against his hire?

This is about wins and losses and jimmy equals losses. By any means necessary he needs to be fired.

disagree. its fake outrage bullshit

I’m okay with fake outrage if it gets the head coach fired. For realz.

I didn’t think it was that big of deal.

It is if you’re grasping at straws finding easier ways to fire your coach. Jimmy is the best thing to happen to Oregon football since Willie decided to move back to Florida.
