Probably nothing to do with Turner, but I don't remember the basketball program being a shit show. #WeAreABBallSchool at the same time the football program cratered.

Jenn managed to fuck up both with hires within a year and a half of each other. And she had a good football program doing at the time.

Don’t forget letting Neighbors walk and hiring Wynn. She cratered a program that went to the final four and a sweet sixteen because she hates spending money.

well i think she's overleveraged by a declining season ticket holder base and stadium debt. She's also just not very bright in her decisions, by and large.

I'll take Jenn's empty, vacant smile and leopard print over Turner's pompous scowl and arrogant smirk any day of the week. He basically told us to accept sucking because it was the right thing. At least Cohen puts up a facade of caring about winning.

I can't stand either but Turner was a smug participation trophy type who helped crater the program. Maybe he didn't start that, but he made the bleeding worse.

Hopkins s ucks, but he's not terrible and has had winning seasons. She did the right thing and canned Lomar.

declining season ticket holder base is bullshit. Maybe by the people here, but my inner circle is all alums (amazon/tech types) and they're donating as much as ever. The people HERE aren't donating, whoop dee fucking doo.

These are all people sitting on the field, Tyee.

Karen doesn't belong in the UW athletic department. That's certain.

I just can't bring myself to hate her though. I think it's the name. It's also the way she sticks her mediocre ass out toward the camera and posts the pics (disappointing that it's so infrequent but still). She's both unlikeable and likeable at the same time.

Cool, your friends buy tickets. And? The declining ticket base isn't an opinion, it's a published fact.

Firing Romar was the right thing.

Hop is horrible. The man should not be a D1 head coach.

Both are true statements.

This is a good point. I change my vote. Jen is a complete dumpster fire. And our approach to NIL is inexcusable.

When it's essentially a toss-up, who would I rather have beers with ... Turner just seems like a flat-out douchey, one Stella and I'm going home kinda guy. Cohen would drink Coors Lights, but she'd pound 'em, she'd be loud and stupid and hoarse, she'd throw up on her leopard print blazer and I'd have a good story.

Hedges destroyed the machine. UW should've been competing for natties throughout the 90's. The entire trajectory of the program changes and Turner is never hired if James isn't thrown under the bus by that wench.
