    I don't get it. If rumors are to believed, UW just offered a 7-win coach what just last year was Nick Saban money, and he said no. How's that going cheap or not putting up a fight or whatever?

    Because if money wasn’t an object, it came down to Jen selling the program to Campbell, and she failed

    Washington isn't going to compete with Oregon and USC when it comes to recruiting, so they need a coach that can develop and out scheme people because they will be at a talent disadvantage. Kalen looks like a guy that can do that, which is why is the hire has a chance to work. Have to give the guy a chance and hope for the best.

    Nope ... replace Oregon with UCLA and that is how it was in the 80s

    It's not about beating them in recruiting, it's about making sure that you recruit well enough that your internal development and game day coaching can close the gap.

    If you don't recruit well enough to keep the gap close enough, it doesn't matter how good of a coach you have
    Tequila, may I suggest you start reading the posts before responding?
    Meant Yep ... not nope

    And nope, editing function is overrated

    This. The boosters came through. Jen once again demonstrated she's tremendously out of her depth

    It seems like a decent hire to me on face value

    How many people were offered or approached with a 7-$8m/year contract? She probably just went down the list that was on every website, same list that Kim and Ruth had. And paid money to get that list from a consulting firm.

    It’s not a question of cheapness, it’s more lack of creativity, , preparedness, networking and persistence. Don’t tell me that Lake getting fired came out of left field. He lost to fucking Montana, search should’ve started right then.

    Yup. But the games are over in 2 1/2 hours and I don't hear anything about the fucking world class UW physicians
