    Maybe it's just hopium for me but I think the worst is over and things are looking up. What if Lake hadn't imploded enough to get fired and he became a dead man walking heading into 2022? Another year of Lake would have meant another year of mostly bad assistant too.

    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.

    UW's only hope is that DeBoer coaches up the kids well, wins 10+ games in 2022 with the soft schedule, beats Oregon and wins a NY6 bowl game. That would be the only hope to spark recruiting and generate donations and sales revenue.

    Courtney Morgan was supposed to be one of the great things DeBoer has done, and that is looking increasingly like a failure.

    I agree with you in principle but if UW doesn't get NIL straightened out then long term there is nothing that will make this program hyper competitive.
    Who is she?

    You're right
