Proves Babs really fucked up.

Beautiful location. Maybe he just is in retirement mode.
-
Jeez. At least coach at Oak Harbor or Kamiakin (w/e the fuck that school is called).
-
They would be so much better off hiring a young, hungry coach. You know Tormey will mail it in. How could he not?
-
Chris Tormey is another Doog legend who owes everything to Don James.

Back in 2007 when I interviewed Tim Meamber for a Dawgman.com article, Meamber broke down in detail how our linebackers were clueless in defending the run against Ohio State. The article caused an uproar, and Dick Baird publicly scolded Tim on the Honks Show for speaking out.
Tormey was the UW linebackers coach at that time. Two days after the article came out, Meamber went over to the UW. Tormey was watching film with the linebackers, and when Meamber stuck his head in the doorway, Tormey began loudly mocking and berating Meamber. That's how it went down based on what Tim told me. -
I remember that when it went down. Of course the Tybots all shit on Meamber and defended Ty. That's how Doogs roll they put their loyalties to a shitty head coach over a Husky great every fucking time.DerekJohnson said:Back in 2007 when I interviewed Tim Meamber for a Dawgman.com article, Meamber broke down in detail how our linebackers were clueless in defending the run against Ohio State.

Meamber is a great example on why more players don't speak out against the current coach because they are in fear they'll be osterized from the Husky family. -
C'mon.

Was that the "watch the pulling guards" article?

wait til he get his guys in there

I remember the Meamber article. It didn't click until now that Derek wrote it. It got pretty personal with posters (and maybe even the honks, Kim, etc) using Meamber's personal problems to discredit his opinion.
-
I met Tormey and Ty at a practice when a buddy of mine was being recruited. He was a nice guy, but seemed kind of like a putz and didn't know any of the recruit's names, including one who had an offer. My friend had a couple offers from other schools, and said the coaches at WSU and Oregon knew all about him when he visited there. Tormey was the recruiting coordinator too. I don't know if he was ever that good of a coach, but I think he gave up after getting fired at Nevada.
Ty was a pretentious douchebag who practically scolded my buddy for saying it was a good practice. Ty said something to the extent that there is no such thing as a good practice because if the offense is doing good, the defense is doing bad. I'm thankful we have a real coach. -
Tormey does have quite the coaching tree having coached under Ty and WULFF! So anytime you can hire a guy who is closely connected to Ty and WULFF! you gotta do it.

It was more than that.... About one week after my article came out, Art Thiel of the P-I came out with a long article detailing how Tim Meamber was a recovering addict who had been homeless. It was an effort to totally destroy his credibility. It was also the point where Dawgman really clamped down on censoring my articles for criticism of the athletic department and Willingham.RoadDawg55 said:I remember the Meamber article.

Tim also said that Art Thiel told him that he had to learn that he can't just come out and say things like that without suffering consequences. -

At that time, Meamber was being marginalized as a "raysiss" for his outspoken points of view. You may want to punt this one.
You sure about your side of the fence back then?
As I recall, it's not much different than your current problems with Hugh.
Just sayin. . . . -

I remember Ed Troxel, he coached at Kennewick when I was in High School.
Those were some good fucking teams.
Now kids, back in the early 80's when Wenatchee, coached by Lee Bofto, met Kennewick ... it was standing room only.
Bofto retired in 1984 after a playoff loss to Snohomish. Wenatchee then went to shit.

He's got his 3 highest paid salary years in the books. Boosting his years of service will turbocharge his retirement.

I think this is a good move for South Whidbey High School. It is sure to restore the Don James era by hiring an alum of the coaching staff. He will restore toughness. I see on their schedule they lost to Kings by 35-14. THis bullshit has to stop! And restoring the Don James era by hiring an alum of the staff or school will be the answer. http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/sports/highschool/football/index.html?site=default&tpl=Team&SearchType=Team&Sport=1&TeamID=747&season=current

Jeezus - okay, carry on playa. -
South Whidbey really opened their wallets....

You would think that a guy with so many years as a college head coach and assistant would have any number of connections he could call on to land a decent gig. That is unless he has been living off past success and his faults and incompetence finally caught up with him. Pete Carroll is retirement age and was older than Tormey when he was hired by the Seahawks. It sounds like this guy was carried by Don James and the rest of the staff and couldn't hack it on in the rest of the coaching world. I hope he doesn't screw up the kids at this HS.

A new interview with Meamber would be front page worthy
