    throw money at the big names and then talk to the mid major guys (most of whom I've never heard of)

    internal hires are usually stupid

    If we're being realistic and want an experienced HC with west coast-ish ties who may not jump at the earliest opportunity, I'm looking at the following...

    Top? options: Sitake, DeBoer, Matt Entz (North Dakota State HC, least west coast ties of all listed here)

    Slightly under the top? options, but an argument could be made: Choate, Troy Taylor (Sac State HC and passing game savant. Could be good for Huard), Aaron Best (EWU HC), Brent Vigen (Montana State HC, took over for Choate, first year HC)

    Ffs Troy Taylor was run out as the OC at Utah and you want to consider him at Uw? His scheme and qb nearly killed Britain covey and scored a total of 1 TD in 2 games on us that year before he was told to LEAVE!
    Okay, cherry-pick the example that doesn't make sense to you. I'm throwing it out there. Being a first-time OC for Whittingham is much different than being a HC. You know that. Taylor is doing very well at Sac State. Not saying he's my top choice by any means, but I wouldn't use his Utah first-time OC experience and Britain Covey's deaths as barometers for his HC abilities.
    It’s not cherry picking that is a list for Arizona or WSU. This is not the time for your low expectations bullshit.
    The post was framed around being realistic you dipshit. Not sure what your pie in the sky expectations are. Cristobal himself was a no-name hire that was trash as an HC previously. The only way we get a household name HC at UW is MAYBE if Petersen becomes AD or something. Please list your candidates so I can laugh them off the face of the earth.
    This is not on brand for you… WTF.

    You’re a doog and then come up with a list that doesn’t include nick saban.

    Did you get some perspective on your sabbatical?
    The Cristobal was trash as a hc previously is weird. Easily the most successful coach in fiu program history. Going 8-5 at fiu is more impressive than going 11-1 at Oregon.
    27-47. Much wow.

    The point is good coaches can come from anywhere, even ones that have been shit previously (like Cristobal). Armchair AD @FremontTroll thinks we can get Urban Saban and that UW is above getting Sitake or DeBoer. Those guys must be amateurs because they're at BYU and Fresno State. UW would never stoop so low as to hire a coach from BYU, Fresno State, or Boise State. This is THEE University of WASHINGTON. Those coaches are peasants.
    You realize the starting point was the worst FBS program in the country, right? He won more game every year until he was the Sun Belt conference champion. He was fired because of rash of injuries to star players and in the Sub Belt where you can’t recruit depth, that’s a problem.

    FIU fans said his firing was a huge mistake. That team literally had no facilities.
    Also, Jed Fisch likely goes 1-11 this year. Is he a bad coach? I think not.

    I'm not here to debate whether Cristobal was or was not a good coach at Florida International. Sorry I hit that button. If you read what I was saying, the point was that good coaches can come from anywhere. FCS, Big Sky, BYU, position coaches, NFL, ones that were shitty earlier, idgaf. I was actually implying that Oregon's coach is good. Keep your eyes open, it's a jungle out there.

    Took over an 0-12 program who’s Coaches offices were FEMA portable trailers. Got them to 8-5, best season in that awful program's history to that point. Took a step back the following year and got canned by an AD who didn’t like that Mario threw him under the bus by calling out how the AD wasn’t committed to funding a winning program.
    Saying that Cristobal was not a household name and did not have a great track record as an HC before proving himself at Oregon as an example of a good coaching hire has really thrown the Duck fans for a loop.

    He’s recruiting well. He seems to evaluate well and recruit hard.

    The culture is getting better.

    For the money, he assembled a good staff.

    The team plays well against expectation.

    I expect Arizona to level up under him. That is a helluva a rebuild, so Arizona needs to be patient.

    You said “trash as a hc”…which is incorrect. And anyone who casually followed cfb knew who he and TY Hilton were in 2011 (and he was a common name for job openings) and the reaction was wtf when he got fired the following year.
