Wokeness more important than winning

A diversity hire President hires a diversity hire AD who hires a diversity hire Head Football Coach, who then hires an assistant RB Coach to be the OC (not sure how that fits in except to say he won’t take the spotlight off the defense. I’m sure they are all great people. Cohen’s background is in fundraising. Jimmy’s in coaching DB’s. They were both hired to do a job that is completely different than what they have any experience for. All three should have cut their teeth at a smaller school before taking on a job like the UW.

But then again, if we are diverse and inclusive than we can just call ourselves winners. At the UW, wokeness is more important than winning.

    Sounds like the last decade at USC.

    In hindsight maybe hiring someone who's been a head coach before would have been smart

    Hindsight is 20/20 and we all know 2020 was bad

    Jimmy wasn't a diversity hire

    But he was a panic hire I believe. UW knew Jimmy had talent and lacked a Rolodex and resume but lacked confidence they could ever get him back once he took a big time coordinator job
