    Wilcox

    Pros:

    • He's not Lake
    • He built a better culture than Petersen at Cal
    • Low floor - based on what he did at Cal pre-COVID, doubt he would ever have a losing season at Washington
    • The defense will always be good
    • Evan Weaver as LB coach?
    Cons:
    • Unexciting - this gets no one to buy tickets to games
    • He lost to Lake - but didn't Petersen lose to Willingham AND Sark?
    • He's struggling in a Pac-12 that is as bad as it has ever been
    • Low ceiling - he's put a decent amount on tape and if he was an elite coach he would have already popped and he hasn't
    • His offenses were always Donovan-level bad. Like always.
    • Any talk of him being able to beat Oregon or nearly beat Oregon. Oregon DGAF about playing Cal and aren't up for that game every year. Wait till he has to play Oregon when there's a W on the helmet. It's also like how Wilcox was going to stop the Chip Kelly offense because he did it at Boise State then got raped every year at UW.
    Did I mention he lost to Lake?
    Cohen probably thinks he's hawt
    Hedges thought Rick was hot
    Who didn't?

    Kim keeps saying that same shit of "Cal is an impossible place to win. " Recent coaches have certainly not found that to the case.

    this is the same shit people pulled when classy af huskers plucked riley from oregon state.

    'look what hes done there, imagine what he could do there!'


    all they got was a foster farms bowl and that stupid 'hip hip hooray' chant.

    One of the Bama players said that when the Bear started the slow walk down from the tower butts puckered and players prayed he wasn't coming for them

    We? have learned a lot over the years and not giving water and scrimmaging guys for hours really isn't a good thing. At all.

    Modern training principles with old school discipline. Toughness. Its a tough game played by tough young men.
