Its entertaining, but its entertainingly pessimistic which is both its humor but also incredibly ironic considering how much they preach on the optics of everything and yet they are the most pessimistic voice on UW out there.
COVID has really put a huge hit into Jimmy’s planning coming off a down year for the program ... recruiting pitches of the program going backwards and taking shots at the staff/hires in recruiting are easy ... there’s not opportunities for kids to come visit the program and see what they are getting for themselves ...
Add to it the fact that all external indications are that Jen went cheap on the football budget by forcing Jimmy’s upgrades to recruiting spend (needed) being offset by reductions in staff spend
It’s a lot of headwinds that Jimmy is facing ...
COVID didn’t force Jimmy to hire Donovan or to way overpay Donovan, especially if he’s limited on budget. It’s Jimmy’s show...he’s made the calls. Hope it works, but initial returns are suspect and I’d be much more comfortable with Peterman in charge. -
Not knowing anything about Donovan I might actually agree, but it shouldn’t be a binary situation...we could have fired Bush and hired somebody with a proven record for what we paid Donovan.UWhuskytskeet said:
Donovan is making more than Bush, right? I'd rather have kept Bush.HoustonHusky said:

Hope Jimmy knows what he is doing.

How you could determine that the position coach that picked fielded one of the worst UW WR units of all time had not only "proven himself as a position coach" but that Adams is "our 3rd best assistant"??? WTF???Tequilla said:
Kinda funny you say thatbananasnblondes said:I checked out their latest podcast and sat through the 15 minutes of complaining about Ryan Bowman being allowed to be on the team. I got to when Tequila says "Junior Adams has proven himself as a position coach but is getting blown out of the water in recruiting." Then I shut that shit off.
Excluding coordinators I’d say Junior Adams is our 3rd best assistant
There are plenty of people that vouch for him as a coach on the field ... but it’s fair to have a little pause on that after the 2019 debacle ... probably fair to have healthy skepticism
From a recruiting standpoint, really strong class last year with Jalen, Rome, and Sawyer. I’m willing to give a slight pass on Gee as I think it’s more on Pete. So that’s a really positive starting point. Add in pulling in Puca to end 2019 ...
Let’s look at the 2021 class though ... top 10 player is an in-state WR that we’ve essentially got blown out for (allegedly) ... another 5-star prospect in Troy Franklin that should be about as close to a lock as you can get for an out of state 5-star ... and the reality is Oregon’s a massive threat at this point to steal (if it can even be called that)
Yes, we have done well at putting players in the league but that’s past tense ... question for 2021 recruiting is what are we doing to ensure that going forward? There’s a lot of reason to be concerned if you’re paying attention.
But go ahead and continue buying the “it’s tough” like that KJV and Ektard are spewing when the reality is decisions are being made earlier and earlier right now no doubt COVID driven.
Adams put together a fucking horrid WR starting lineup, had a terrible WR rotation that made no sense, and had retard play telegraphing substitutions like the Chin Go-route and Chico fly sweep.
The play from his unit was somehow fucking worse... WRs that couldnt catch, WRs fucking hopping at chest high throws instead of running through the catch, WRs running wrong routes constantly, WRs with no awareness of where they were on the field, WRs turning in shit effort on their routes.
Adams has fucking sucked at the actual coaching and if he misses this year on the one thing he *might* be good at, recruiting, he can GTFO.
If Adams continues to turns in as shitty of coaching results as he did last year, no ammount of recruiting will dig him out of that hole. -
Yeah...dnc said:
Exactly. At least Bush has demonstrated some recruiting ability.UWhuskytskeet said:

Bush (without Pete) has more upside than Donovan
Bush (no pete) for 1 tester year > panic hiring Donovan -
In case you didn’t notice ... the fact that Adams was our 3rd best position coach by default was not my way of making a ringing endorsementHouhusky said:

It’s the best pod in the world & anyone who thinks otherwise can eat a bag of dicks.
And tequila was fine on this one. Didn’t get in the way of too many DDY rants.
