Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
It's pro football down south. The Dolphins have sucked since 1983. The Falcon lol suck. The Titans usually suck
But the SEC lives on
UW either needs to cut the bullshit and go all in or they need to stop asking us to be all in
I love college football. Once upon a time UW was SEC west. Then Oregon was.
USC is doing what it takes. It appears that NIL has hurt Oregon now that people can meet their offer legally.
Pac 12 is in trouble regardless of what
@haie and his friends say. Big trouble

Couldn’t agree more with your comments on UW acting like they are all in with their asks of us to be all in when their actions aren’t indicative of being all in
I don't think Georgia and Alabama need that many and Florida and Texas haven't done shit.
So we'll see.
Oh DesertDuck has something to say about it, while the local drug task force surrounds his mobile home. Gaf
Ever
I laughed
But you're wrong about the rest
In their minds they are "all in" in terms of what they are willing to do and not do, but compared to the rest of the CFB programs that are serious about the sport and compete at the highest level UW isn't in the same Universe.
From On field results last 2 full seasons, to fan base engagement (can't wait to see minimum 20,000 empty seats at every game this year minus Michigan State), a non-existent NIL program (only been two years though, so there's still time - Doogs) and a brand new staff with very limited P5 experience and cache who while it appears to be doing all the basics in recruiting necessary, but so far their message is not resonating (and imo that's putting it kindly) with the recruits the program optics are as a bad as they've been in a very long time. Even the Gilby/TY years felt like there was hope as a change was coming. This feels like the new normal unless we find another unicorn coach like Pete.
I think there was much more of a sense of keeping the lights on 2 years ago by people despite there being some warts in messaging and actions (which I also was critical of) being evident
Now the sense I get is that people are fed up with Jen’s stewardship and are effectively out until the words and actions start matching up again
Instead, Cohen saw my posts on here and decided to listen to me by getting DeBoer and a promising staff. I LOVED how they played and sometimes I thought I was watching Chris Petersen's BSU teams.
NIL at least allows UW to compete out in the open relative to people who were doing it under the table (Oregon, USC, ASU who got caught, etc etc). What the UW needs more than anything is a rich af alum who is willing to lose at least a few million a year to get many of the WA and West Coast players they want.
I suspect DeBoer and his staff will be better than Pac-12 staffs regarding X's and O's but they need the Jimmys and Joes too.
Courtney Morgan was supposed to be one of the great things DeBoer has done, and that is looking increasingly like a failure.
