    Literally no one would’ve ever known about Crosby (who?) and his twitter account if not for these dipshits bringing it to light. If they actually cared they’d privately send a DM to someone in the athletic department... instead they blow it up on twitter and just use it as another reason to claim the “moral high ground”. Narcissists gonna narcissist

    In all seriousness it's not about protecting UW, or about holding anyone to any standard, it's about crafting UW into their vision of what it should it be.
    What do you mean by this? Whether they're going about it the wrong way or are right or wrong, it seems their vision of what UW should be is a team (I'm assuming you're referring to UW football and not the university as a whole) that wins at all cost, recruits ANY player that has elite physical talent, hires ANY coach who will do what it takes to win (with a heavy prioritization of recruiting over coaching), and reorganizes the program into an Oregonesque marketing machine for kids that also respects the traditions that the old timers won't let go (you know, so an impossible contradiction). Agree or disagree with this (put me in the latter camp), I don't see how it's inconsistent with the other two motivations on your list.
    If they were trying to protect UW they'd address their concerns quietly.

    They're not trying to protect UW.
    Welcome to the millennial version of disagreement. Fester in a social media echo chamber with other like-minded dipshits until you all convince yourselves you're morally righteous and then proceed to bitch and moan until someone pays attention
    Yep.

    Pretty sure DDY is older than me though.

    The real question is if they would care if Crosby’s political likes and retweets were the opposite. I doubt they would have a problem with it, even tho like Race nobody getting paid and associated with UW football should be doing anything political on Twitter.

    Of course not

    I suppose you'd have to define "the opposite." You may be promoting a false dichotomy here.

    What does any of this have to do with the Miami Hurricanes?

    Nada @creepycoug . Clempson is the new Miamuh. Even the mighty Cane couldn't win 3 NTs in 4 years.

    If Dabo does win, he's the greatest corch of the modern era. Not Urbs. Not Meyer. 3 NTs in 4 years at non blue blood is as good as it gets.

    Except he has yet to do what Urbs did: win big at more than one stop. That's a lot harder than winning a few in a short time period when you have everything rolling your way. Let's have him quit Clempson and go to, say, Tennessee and win two. That's effectively what Urbs did when going to Floriduh. Then went and build a juggernaut at OSU.

    Nope: Dabo is not at Urbs level just yet. Pump the brakes Yella.

    I still think that LSU and Orgeron close out the magical season

    Look how many times the last decade that Nick had a chance to stack them up. Best was two in a row which is also what Dabo is going for

    Skrong disagree. I think you overvalue Urb's winning at multiple stops narrative. Florida was less than 10 years removed from NT when Urbs got their and he walked in to Top 5 level talent. Ohio State was like 6 or 7 years removed from it's NT when he got there. Dabo has won multiple NTs at a clear tier II school that hadn't done shit in 3.5 DECADES. He built it from scratch. Urbs never had to do that.

    I follow Jeff Becthold. He works at the UW AD as a media guy. He twats and retwats anti-Trump shit often. His bio also says “proud atheist”.

    I give a fuck about either of those things but if these idiots want to attack someone over their personal political or religious views, then go after everyone's and get rid of all that shit in the AD, not just the ones they disagree with.

    So if they don't like Crosby (who?) likes, then they definitely don't like players like the Bosa brothers. Dennis may be self asphyxiating too much.

    I know, I know, it enhances the experience. Get off my back.

    Nobody has even slowed LSU down all season. I don’t see that changing, but Clemson is good. They will have to score 40+ to win which is also hard against LSU. LSU played much better on defense the 2nd half of the year.

    In 2018 I was bitching about Gregory and a friend who would know told me that Crosby was the real issue with the special teams, and that he was the one that should be fired into the sun. She normally doesn't tell me shit, but she hated Crosby and this year said Bush was in over his head.

    plus, a Trump supper
