Why winning big in year 1 is so important
- Jimmy needs to establish himself, doesn't have Pete 92-12 record to fall back on. CFB graveyards are filled with upjumped, failed coordinator conversion hires
- Jimmy will be validated pretty quickly one way or the other for the O's performance. Either he looks like a complete brilliant savant with Donovan, a left field stroke of genius no one saw coming --- OR MORE LIKELY --- he's in over his head, hiring a guy who by every quantitative and qualitative measure is horrifyingly unqualified.
- The roster is set to win now. Outside of QB, at least. The defense is good enough to win 10+ and should be terrific.
IMO the odds Lake actually being good aren't encouraging. I also think he 100% bounces to the NFL if he truly balls out here.

That. I hadn't even considered this yet, but the dude clearly mythologizes The League.Gladstone said:- Capitalizing on all time great recruiting classes in WA, torpedoing the 2019 season might have daggered it already though

Jimmy needs to go 6-3 in pac or better in year 1. No excuses.

At big time programs like UCLA you can go out and grab a proven coach with NFL experience. You let the loser schools up in rain country like UW and Oregon take their chances on unproven coordinators. When they are seasoned and ready for the big time, they inevitably want to take the next step and play under the bright lights of LA with the glitz and glamour. We can afford to give our coaches a chance to clean out the dead wood and install their system. No need to win now. The state of California is beautiful and has unlimited money so recruits will still want to come here no matter what. In former national coach of the year Chip Kelly we trust. The south will rise again and it’s our time now.

If we don’t win the natty, we can just say fuck it and catch some rays en la playa. Plenty of perspective to be had here in la la land. I’m sure you can relate as a fan of a loser program with plenty of nearby beaches.creepycoug said:
