Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

How long of a leash will Jimmy get?

For reference, since Jimmy….like Helfrich…is following a very successful coach in Chris Petersen:

- 2013 11-2 PAC12n Champion Alamo Bowl W

- 2014 13-2 PAC12 Champion Rose Bowl W NCG appearance

- 2015 9-4 Alamo Bowl L

- 2016 4-8 Helfrich Fired

    With Helfrich the defense bottomed out so fast that it made it easy for Oregon.

    That won't happen at Washington.

    It's hard to fuck up offense that bad. They won't turn it over at the same clip Pete's shit offense was in 2018/19

    Jimmy will never go 4-8

    Helfrich is closer to Willingham than Jimmy is.

    Jimmy is Sark without the USC pedigree.

    That said, I don’t see Sark whiffing this badly on generational in-state talent crops.

    Sark whiffed too

    And sucked

    Jimmy will be DC at Bama in 2 years then get the head job at Auburn

    Remind me who Sark whiffed on. I honestly can’t remember….which is why I’d assumed he collected on the in state kids at least.

    Between the two, you'd probably rather have Helfrich. At least you can rip the band aid after his 4th season. If Jimmy stuffs the board with 8-5, 9-4, 7-6 the next three seasons, do you see him getting fired? I don't. Mediocrity has a tendency to stick around longer, and long term can be much more damaging to a program. We already know that Pete was the reason Jimmy could recruit. Without the closer, Jimmy is floundering. It doesn't take long for lackluster recruiting to start reflecting in the standings.

    I have no idea but someone does

    I know we lost a lot of guys under a lot of coaches

    Seems like ducks are more interested in Jimmy getting fired than Sark

    Jimmy won’t even get fired before taking the job.

    I’m interested in whomever the UW coach is getting fired, I guess.
