Jimmy’s in way over his head and frankly he’s facing way too many headwinds at this point to reasonably expect to turn things around ... and that’d be true even if he knew what he was doing
That said, the most pressing need is for Jen to be removed as AD
Reality is that Jen’s far too dangerous and irresponsible to make the next hire (and that’s true in a number of sports)

One which celebrates the achievements of the entire college team sports programs and can tell you how well the intermural program is going and gives out gold stars for participation and academic achievement in between cub scout meetings; and the other which thirsts for a dominant program and does whatever it takes through sheer willpower, ethic and intention to be a freaking winner in the money producing programs.
True leadership coaches and AD's [leaders] make it their life's blood to produce a winner, they are constantly evaluating, understand what they are witnessing and they do not let rose colored glasses color their understanding of the truth of the trajectory of the programs they are managing.
They are decisive when it counts, they have the clout, charisma and financial backing to make it happen and they are ahead of the curve to the point that it all looks seamless. Case closed Sherlock, there is no mystery here.
We are fundamentally broken, and content with being an above average program that never really does anything.
Let’s face it. UW either only hires inexperience, incapable coaches or retreads because they’ll do just enough to keep football in position to have positive cash flow.
@FireCohen was first and right.
They always dress up for "blue Friday" at the office
They have 10 different colors of Russell Wilson jerseys
They put Seahawks shit all over their car
They have a 12 flag on their house
They do their family photos in Seahawks gear
They have Seahawks parties at their house every GameDay and advertise them throughout the week
When the game is actually on, though, they sit in the other room and talk to their friends about clothing or celebrities or any other gossip... popping in a couple times to ask how the game is going.
The fact Jen wasn’t even smart enough to get into UW should have been a pretty good indicator that she might not be a crack CEO of the department...
That's simply the tims we live in, folks. 7-5, 6-6 is good enuff.
Stating the obvious. Don't twist.
What exactly are you saying needs to be turned around?
Sure it would have been nice if Covid didn't prevent us from playing Oregon and playing in the Pac12 championship game but that is above his pay grade.
It's a bit early to predicting an off season 0 and 12.
The company line here tho is that the program is dead. Doesn’t matter that what you said about on field performance kart season is fact. This group was funny before. Now it’s gone too far negative in my book. But whatever works.
If this fall UW didn’t win a north title and more with this talented roster, then it’s time to panic. Until then, I don’t get it.
