    What appealed to you about the job?

    I’ve been here seven years. It’s been seven awesome years. The idea of just building a defense again, doing something new, I think it was just time for a change. I can’t put it into words. It’s just like a feel, you know? You love where you’re at, you love the guys you’re working with and all that, but you just get an itch to do something different, and this opportunity arose.

    What do you think of where Washington is at as a program?

    We’ve got good guys. We’ve got good coaches. Obviously, they’ve got to get better. That comes with young guys here and there, and reps, and time. They’re going to make that next step, for sure, offense and defense. I think they’re in a good spot. A lot of dudes coming back. I know the guys are all about it. And the culture’s good. When the culture’s good, you can do good things.

    Haie translation: I'm bored, get my shit pushed in by Stanford, Cal, and Oregon. It's all stale, I need a new environment to grow professionally.

    Beyond that he might be pissed about King Co Covid stuff, etc.
    Yeah, he's not envisioning Lake building an empire, lol.

    But imagine skipping to Sark, who fucking barfed his way out of two jobs and is a shit program manager.

    All that matters now is media and attention. I'll be rooting against him.

    - pac12 is a disaster
    - can't compete in visibility nor resources
    - covid has shown who's serious about football
    - getting his pay almost doubled
    - chance to see if you can make it on the biggest stage

    At 55 years old why the fuck not? I bet peterman told him "roll the dice, you never know until you try and do your own boise thing ..." And so here we are

    If it doesn’t work he retires

    If it does work he works the next 5-7 years and retires

    I can understand why it’s time

    But the reasons for leaving are rooted in the competition and environment factors you noted

    For those of you with Athletic subscriptions it’s a must read ...

    It’s a sobering interview that will make you want to drink heavily ... probably best to lock up the bleach before reading

    I didn't really take it that way. Seemed pretty anodyne. Texas has always been a bigger deal than UW, Sark is a west coast guy so there is a comfort level there, more money, and the job is more exciting than staying on for a CP-Lite experience with Jimmy.

    The stuff about how football is a bigger deal in other parts of the country was fed to him by Caple, he didn't really bite IMO.
