    DawgPassion206, a good buddy of mine did a study a few years ago where he looked at which states produce the most pro's in football, basketball and baseball. He had nominal rankings and then per capita.

    For football, Washington was around 17-20 in both nominal and per capita if i recall correctly. However, for baseball pros Washington was as high as 7th. If we really get serious about baseball one would think we could have a top 10 program.

    Keep in mind a bulk of that talent is probably coming straight out of high school though.

    I do agree with you that there is no reason for UW to be as bad as long as they have been in baseball. I mean shit we couldn't even crack the dance when Lincecum was here winning national pitcher of the year.
    Actually, there IS a reason. Emmert wouldn't let them recruit outside of Washington State because he made them pay out-of-state tuition. He said upper campus needed the money, SO THEY DIDN'T RECRUIT OUT OF STATE, so Emmert didn't get any money. I asked him how that was working for him. He didn't respond.
    But how was he a bad president?

    Stupid doesn't count? His is the same logic as raising taxes to 100% because the government needs the money...

    Nobody will continue working if they pay 100% in taxes.

    not true. made up. next story.

    btw, Emmert wasn't the Prez for the entire history of the program. don't know if you know that.

    ask Ken Knutson why UW couldn't compete for out-of-state recruits, and he's not going to give you that spun up yarn about Emmert. he'll pull out a picture book of the old Chaffey Field and show you why. sanicans and all.

    fuck you're a piece of work.

    Great fucking idea RoadDawg.

    Doogman sucked off Emmert for sure but lets not forget Fleenor thought Turner was a good hire. He or someone on there scoffed at those who thought Turner was a terrible hire.

    In any event, Mark Emmert needs to be lynched in red square for his actions in 2007 2004.

    Remember he was the fuck who hired Ty. Despite what some(Tequilla) try to say different Emmert was very much involved in that hire.

    They didn't even consider an Urban Meyer from Utah as they wanted to make history with a black football and basketball coach. Absolutely disgusting and he stood by letting Turner fuck us in the ass.

    The program had just gone 1-10 with their first losing season in 28 years. You needed to get this hire right and they didn't even give a fuck. Just gave the hardcore fans like most of us in here the middle finger and said fuck off!


    Despite all the glory of past generations of Husky football, Urban Meyer wasn't coming to Montlake.

    HTH

    Why wouldn't a Utah coach come here? Never said he would but to not consider him isn't doing your due diligence.
