I met Mike Lude at a booster event in Portland, as well as Don James briefly. I was heading to my freshman year at UW and Mike very enthusiastically and generously invited me to come by his office when I got to campus, which I did. He didn't know me, or my Dad, but met with 18 year old freshman me in his office (overlooking the old sunken tennis courts as I recall) and asked how he could help me. Struck me as energetic and driven. And as I recall, that was right around the time of the Apple Cup mace incident. Good times!

Hedges gets a lot of hate but she has that Alpha Bitch Seattle look and presided over some amazing seasons. Did the Fuck you college thing before it was cool by throwing money at Rick.
I don't have enough information obviously. -
So 1991 was because of Hedges?haie said:Hedges gets a lot of hate but she has that Alpha Bitch Seattle look and presided over some amazing seasons. Did the Fuck you college thing before it was cool by throwing money at Rick.

No, I guess. I'm just saying that she strut around in fancy purple Seattle designer shit when UW was on. Turner, Woodward, Cohen, none of them have made any kind of an impact if it wasn't negative.LawDawg1 said:

Hedges is the last AD to make any kind of a move similar to SC getting Riley. -
It’s gotten so bad you are praising Hedges.haie said:

Woodward getting Petersen was close to the equivalent of Hedges getting Rick. The disappointing results notwithstanding.haie said:

Woodward actually was okay. Got the stadium built. Oversaw st Haden blessing this university.

Woodward won at LSU then fired the coach and hired Brian Kelly
And Brian Kelly
It's possible the problem isn't the AD but the school
Hedges did what her boss told her while running a decent program
Into the ground -
We had a University President that literally destroyed college athletics for all schools. That’s power right there.
