Yes they had some bad takes, especially when it comes to player evaluation. However the real overall message that got muddied was recruiting matters, and it does.
Most people here were fine with Lake being promoted and thought he would do well. Hand up, I was one of them, and to give credit where credits due, I remember Coker and Dennis sounding the alarm regarding the early missteps in coach hiring, and recruiting right off the bat, at least until Dennis saw the writing and the wall and killed himself.
Yep
I was more of a LIPO and let’s see what we get but noted that on the surface it’s underwhelming
As with most things with Jimmy … it wasn’t one particular thing that got him fired but the totality of his mistakes
He coasted once he “made it” and got extremely arrogant when in charge regardless of the results.

I like Coker and DDY but I'll be damned if I let that stop me from using everything they have said against them
Bored rules
You’ve never had a problem dishing it
You just never take it well
I've taken more shit than any man alive here
I give it right back

Quite frankly Race, you are a world class donkey. When I hear people bitch and moan about the people in the State of Washington - you are a crystal example of why people bitch about the State of Washington. When I hear people that bitch about the fans of the University of Washington and what their complaints are, you represent what those complaints are.

Obviously the youth of America learned nothing about how not to act from me
Can confirm this to be absolutely correct. She dost have some questionable morals that have been observed around Tubby Graves for a long time. Surprised it hasn’t come up more from the experts around here. P.S. yes she should be fired but whom is going to fire her? The boosters have a lot of control—are they going to give up their control of partly running the athletic department to actually hire a REAL athletic director with experience which may mean they get to have less control. I fucking hope not.
Big DDY & Coker fans and most of their recruiting pods were on point and had a great message everything matters recruiting, marketing, everything.
Yes, Bro the OKG shit had racist undertones it’s no fuking coincidence that multiple universities used in negative recruiting!! It was low hanging fruit, and as soon as I heard it I knew it was a problem. Other players dads and local African Americans were offended for a reason. Before it starts not all brown cultures are the same when someone quickly brings up how diverse our team is with the Poly culture. He was not racist but he didn’t appreciate or particularly care for African American culture.

Myopic fast-strategy, slow-strategy, racist-recruiting obsession ruined the TSIO pod.
There, I said it.
As with most things there’s shreds of truth everywhere
The cringe to me is thinking in those terms … who thinks about being fast/slow strategy?
There’s always some grains of salt you have to take about any thought provoking paper that comes out of academia
DDY went down the rabbit hole with that stuff despite watching Stanford's big slow white Tight Ends beat UW's BIPOC NFL-bound DBs repeatedly, year after year.
It's almost as if DDY developed an obsession with young black men. But I don't want to start any rumors.

He was white. It's okay to say that here, even though being white is not okay.

Fuck off with this.
OKG === do what we say, how we say to do it, don't do drugs, go to class, and don't shoot people up with airsoft guns in your free time.
Judging by his class rankings people were fine with OKG.

P.S. I still miss the TSIO pod.
