Some things you don't come back from

RaceBannon · December 2020

And giving Oregon our spot is one of those things.

Jenn for sure has to go and Jimmy now has the hottest seat in America

Hahahahahaha - It's UW. No worries brah. We'll get them next year

One of the Johns (I think it was Canzano) did a piece saying that the P12 should want a real champ which would have been accomplished simply by delaying the CCG a few days.

He is not wrong.

I've been so blinded by rage, I haven't even digested the absurd optics of having a 3-2 non divisional champ playing in the title game of a power 5 conference.

We're all part of some social experiment designed to see how far the human spirit can endure doogdom until we finally actually stop giving a shit and go outside or something.

Doogles · December 2020

I've said this jokingly many times before(as well as others here), but dissolve the Pac-12 while there's still any value in the brand.

If I'm UW I'm breaking contract and throwing out serious inquiries to the BiG10/12

I thought it was real classy the way Jimmy acknowledged that we'll be the *REAL* Pac12 champs after we beat Clay Clay.

You guys should hold onto Jimmy forever. Total keeper IMO.

You merely adopted pain. I was born in it, molded by it.

This is actually a good idea. Culturally we? fit in better with the BIG10 than Rutgers or fucking Maryland.

You can always come back with the right AD leadership and the right coach. Has there ever been a program to go 0-12 and finish in the top 4 in a ten year span?

And we? didn't even have the right AD.

It's never too late to come back.

It's damn sure easy to believe that we? won't, though.

I don’t disagree. Programs like ours? can and do catch lightning in a bottle every so often - I’m just doubtful UW can sustain it for any amount of time.

UCF went Owen in 2015 then won a national championship a couple years later

Ohio State went Owen 12 in 2010 (off field losses)

You really have to suck to go Owen on the field. Not many championship types teams have done it

tOSU is already building a fence around Seattle so you know they're on board.

Pete made us relevant as Pac 12 contenders ( 2 for 6 ) which is something we hadn't been for 15 years. That in itself is a solid achievement considering we haven't had the right AD since Mike Lude and Pete lost the drive to be an elite coach.

I'm prepared to fire Jimmy after 2021 but, at least, need to see one normal season under the guy. Talking about getting the AD to put pressure on the HC to fire this or that assistant coach is a waste of time. The Buck stops at Jimmy's desk.

See. We? are really special. This was a unique achievement.

I’ve said this, not jokingly. It may be too late to fix the Pac-12. Oregon and Washington should be exploring how to trick the Big Ten into taking them. Not a new idea. I don’t know about complacent Washington, but Oregon is fed up with the Pac-12. USC is just waiting for the chance to go independent. Nobody else cares, or if they do they’re not relevant enough to matter.

It’s hard to imagine this conference almost dismantled the Big-12 not that long ago. Texas fucked us all.

My greatest fear is the dismantling of the P12 and we are left with a Utah, Colorado, Oregon schools, Washington schools, Boise State, BYU conference

I understand the great fear that we would be the odd man out in the reshuffling of the power conferences. On the surface this is a realistic fear, but WASHINGTON is still a top 15 revenue producing program in the country and #1 in the Pac-12.

That's right, despite stepping on our dicks repeatedly for over a quarter of a century, we still pull in more dough than Sweatshop New Money U and USC.

Seattle is a legitimate media market with plenty of talent to be a desirable addition to any conference.

The longer UW prolongs a power move like this, and the more the ghost of Don James dissipates into montlake, the less clout we have to make it.

Howdy, Stranger!
