Clemson of the West POTD

Split Zone Duo podcast (Steven Godfrey, Richard Johnson, Alex Kirshner, one of the better CFB podcasts at the moment) talked about the UW-BYU thing a bit from a media perspective (around minute 37).
Mentioned how UW did a pretty good job setting the media narrative on this, not that they lied at all, but they got out in front of it in a smart way. Also talked about how BYU recently fired their SID, and that this happening on a Sunday may have made it harder for them to respond.
Also talked about how private UW was with the media under Pete, which in some ways was good, but hurt our exposure nationally. Said every national CFB writer wanted to do a UW story before the Peach Bowl, and we completely shut them out and gave them nothing. Initially Jimmy Lake expressed a desire to be more open with the media, and with the amount of NFL players and recent success, has the potential to really improve UW's brand nationally.
They talked about how a big part of Clemson's rise was opening the program up to the media, training coaches on how to build narratives, hiring smart SIDs and support staff that knew how to be a professional program. Now their brand is so strong Dabo can say whatever dumb shit he wants and it barely matters.
Anyways, having a national brand helps, the BYU thing was a promising sign UW may actually start to care about it.

Goes to the complaint about announcers slurping Oregon
Announcers are lazy and ill informed
They repeat what the coaches drill into them during the production meets
Oregon has a message

One thing I will say, I hope Jimmy remembers the "OKG is racis." shit and gives a narrative equally as heinous back to Mario for that one.

I still maintain this narrative was born on this very site. Biggest black eye for HH, in my opinion. Mario had it handed to him on a fucking platter. There was zero talk of dirty racial recruiting to the south before the trademarked TSIO forum two-black-parents-and-not-African purity test became a thing.UW_Doog_Bot said:One thing I will say, I hope Jimmy remembers the "OKG is racis." shit and gives a narrative equally as heinous back to Mario for that one.

Butt it wasn't really so much what DDY said as how others here ran with it that was really the issue. -
ATBS irregardless of where Cristobal (or really Donte Williams) got the idea, Oregon needs to pay for how they spread it directly to recruits.

There was never a completely serious 'Pete is racist' theme on the TBS board, jesus. You're confusing narratives that low rent vomit posters like firecohen parroted vs. what the dudes themselves actually said.1to392831weretaken said:

edit: dnc said it better than me. agreed. -
Disagree. I think the "a recruit having two black parents is vastly different than just one" nonsense was stated completely seriously by a not insignificant amount of posters. They legitimately believed that Pete could appeal to the latter but struggled to relate with the former. The fast strategy shit morphed into a meme, but it was rooted in sincerely held beliefs.Gladstone said:,

Right, but I don't think @1to392831weretaken was arguing that people here thought Pete was racist. Rather, people thought Pete struggled to recruit "the real blacks".dnc said:

This. The TSIO crew repeatedly stated that the notion of Pete being racist was ludicrous. Right after describing in detail how other teams might negatively recruit in spite of this. Sometimes to a degree that was over the line (as described in my original post).GreenRiverGatorz said:

Whether they believed it or not, they very publicly provided the blueprint for negatively recruiting against Washington. -
That was a total fucking snore fest because the usual retarded suspects couldn't help themselves and tried to interject it in every recruiting thread. Grown ass men who have never developed a mature view on racial topics always out themselves enthusiastically when they see an opening.1to392831weretaken said:

It was embarrassing. I think the chances that it played a part in the weird backlash against UW is well above zero.
