Jimmy is a sunshine blower.Canadawg said:Gut punch. Jimmy was on the radio on Wednesday saying they want to play. I'm guessing he wouldn't be straight up lying. The Jens did this

Pulled my 500k donation that was scheduled next week. I will donate when this program starts giving a shit. Football has way to many dead weights on the staff and the fact that Jimmy gave them 2 year extensions before the season is when he lost me. Basketball is an absolute mess and no clue how they get that program back on track. Coaching staff probably won’t talk to me anymore but I could care less. This is unacceptable and I won’t contribute to it.

Lots of ignorance on this thread ... we literally don’t have the ability to field a team
It is what it is -
Hey Commissioner Gordon, who are we redshirting this year?

How do you know we don't have the ability to field a team 11 days from now? (Alamo Bowl 12/29.)Tequilla said:Lots of ignorance on this thread ... we literally don’t have the ability to field a team
It is what it is
Even applying the ridiculous 14 day quarantine which has no basis in science generally let alone when you are testing everyone daily and quarantining at first positive test or sign of symptoms- how are we giving up now for a bowl 11 days away?
But the real issue is Jimmy and Jen should have been pushing back in the media against King County and the conference months ago. Never happened. Not a peep was heard. Again- should have pushed back regarding rescheduling the championship game or calling it something other than a championship game. Not a peep was heard.
We just gladly submit to the boot as it stomps on our program. -
None of these teams want to go to a bowl because they don't want to prepare and fly down there just to have one positive test derail it.

Wait Jen Cohen is a chick? I thought she was like a Jewish Finnish dude.

You could argue that the timelines and whatnot could or should be adjusted but that’s not happening on the West Coast.
So even IF we would have been able to get enough bodies cleared there wouldn’t have been time to get back to normal with how long everything has been shit down.
Considering that the timelines for the bowls would have been tight at best the best course of action was to pack it up. Worst thing would be to cancel the bowl game or show up with such a skeleton squad that the game would be a joke.
The decision wasn’t because the team didn’t want to play, or because of upper campus or anything like that. It’s because we are in a pandemic and shit happens.
Do you really think that anybody on Montlake wanted the outcome of tonight to happen? Giving Oregon free juice to use the next 9 months is a worst case scenario. -

Now you’re backtracking and claiming to have been right all along.
And yet you’re still wrong because not trying to play at all is worse than trying to play and not being able to be at your best.
Nobody has said anybody wanted this result that is absurd. But they passively let it occur. -

You can see the uptick in positive tests this week in UW related data
You can do the math on the contact tracing
Best case scenario with math probably gives a matter of days to get ready ... just not realistic
It sucks ... there’s no way around it
It’s probably a fair assertion that if you have lowered standards on the contact tracing you have a better chance. But that’s not shit UW controls ... so that is what it is.
No matter what people here think it’s irresponsible to effectively shut the program down for the better part of a month and show up to play a game with an undetermined roster, few at best practices to prepare, etc.
Anybody that thinks we should be doing that is ignorant

It’s really simple math at this point
What motivation does UW have for not playing if they could field any kind of reasonable roster?

Unless you think they are lying about having ZERO OL available (and they aren’t) ... what would you have liked for them to have done?
It’s highly ignorant to think that there hadn’t been significant work done to be able to play as it was. I doubt anybody that is bitching knows anything about the work behind the scenes. -

Play DL at OL.
Play walk ons.
Show some damn fire and passion and pride at some level.
Seriously anything would have been better than casually stepping aside, offering Oregon your spot and declaring them the conference champions if they win. -

Considering that the timelines for the bowls would have been tight at best the best course of action was to pack it up. Worst thing would be to cancel the bowl game or show up with such a skeleton squad that the game would be a joke.
The decision wasn’t because the team didn’t want to play, or because of upper campus or anything like that. It’s because we are in a pandemic and shit happens.
Do you really think that anybody on Montlake wanted the outcome of tonight to happen? Giving Oregon free juice to use the next 9 months is a worst case scenario.
I don't for a minute believe they did everything possible to prevent it from happening. And that's the problem.
Unless you think they are lying about having ZERO OL available (and they aren’t) ... what would you have liked for them to have done?
It’s highly ignorant to think that there hadn’t been significant work done to be able to play as it was. I doubt anybody that is bitching knows anything about the work behind the scenes.
Play DL at OL.
Play walk ons.
Show some damn fire and passion and pride at some level.
Seriously anything would have been better than casually stepping aside, offering Oregon your spot and declaring them the conference champions if they win. -

It is what it is
Even applying the ridiculous 14 day quarantine which has no basis in science generally let alone when you are testing everyone daily and quarantining at first positive test or sign of symptoms- how are we giving up now for a bowl 11 days away?
But the real issue is Jimmy and Jen should have been pushing back in the media against King County and the conference months ago. Never happened. Not a peep was heard. Again- should have pushed back regarding rescheduling the championship game or calling it something other than a championship game. Not a peep was heard.
We just gladly submit to the boot as it stomps on our program.
You could argue that the timelines and whatnot could or should be adjusted but that’s not happening on the West Coast.
So even IF we would have been able to get enough bodies cleared there wouldn’t have been time to get back to normal with how long everything has been shit down.

You can see the uptick in positive tests this week in UW related data
You can do the math on the contact tracing
Best case scenario with math probably gives a matter of days to get ready ... just not realistic
It sucks ... there’s no way around it
It’s probably a fair assertion that if you have lowered standards on the contact tracing you have a better chance. But that’s not shit UW controls ... so that is what it is.
No matter what people here think it’s irresponsible to effectively shut the program down for the better part of a month and show up to play a game with an undetermined roster, few at best practices to prepare, etc.
Anybody that thinks we should be doing that is ignorant -

The conference didn't want to play, and neither did Washington. /season.
