Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Keith Gilbertson conference record in four seasons at Cal: 11-21
Justin Wilcox conference record in five seasons at Cal: 13-24
Contextually Wilcox is better than Gilby but if you're only barely better than a man with a strong case as the worst HC in UW history you don't belong on anyone's list.
If rumors about Wilcox get serious this stat must be burned into every doog brain.

Simple fact, case closed
It's true that Pappy Waldorf is the last Cal coach to make the Rose Bowl but Snyder and Tedford had good programs there
Nobody is knocking on Ton Homloe's door
Are they?
According to my duck sources FIU didn't even have a program when Mario arrived
"Most out here know very little about Wilcox or his situation. He's very well-respected and is in an almost impossible situation right now. I wouldn't dismiss him so quickly with the limited knowledge most out here have. I like Wilcox a lot. And with the right staff, I think he'd do very, very well at UW."
You're going to love Wilcox. It will be interesting to see who he fills his staff with. Knowing the competitive nature of Justin, I'm sure he negotiated a large assistant salary pool. If he gets Tosh Lupoi on staff, watch out. Tosh is one of the best recruiters I've ever dealt with. He's currently with Atlanta.
He's an outstanding recruiting and phenomenal working with DB's. He trusts his guys and has an edge. Guys love playing for him.
Washington didn't hit a home run with Wilcox. They hit a grand slam.
"Justin is evolving. I'm so proud of him. Nobody hates to see a 5-game losing streak as much as he does. He'll get this turned around." - Jen Cohen
I've known Justin a long time. He was the first person I called back when Lake was let go.
It's been an odd couple of years. I started to notice it after the Armed Forces Bowel. That's when he started getting a lot of attention for other jerbs. That's when he started leveraging it for pay increases. It didn't happen overnight.
Personally, I like Justin a lot. He has a lot of attributes that could make him an outstanding coach at some point. I truly hope he figures it out and gets another opportunity."
The script.
