Jimmy Lake. John Donovan. Bob Gregory.

We are doogs. I did too. I thought, maybe he learned to not be an idiot, but I was wrong. Beyond the schemes, our players have no confidence.Doogles said:I'll admit, I gave Donovan more of a shot than most here coming into the season.
I saw an experienced OL, experienced RBs, best TE in nation, a QB that could avoid sacks and accurate within 20 (with hope to improve long ball), and speed speed speed outside.
Couple that with a good D and it was reasonable to think we could score points in various, balanced ways and control games.
What we've seen is a complete regression across the board.
OL is now the worst in conference, getting pushed around by FCS
RBs can't find a hole and the most experienced have yet to see a snap
Otton gets doubled/tripled every passing down
Morris can't avoid sacks and is inaccurate everywhere (biggest surprise)
WRs are hurt/struggle to get the ball
It's so so bad and 100% coaching. -
Wasn't really meant to be funny. Jimmy's biggest advantage right now is that he is one of the very few African American HCs in football.DerekJohnson said:

You yourself posted about Mario Bailey, a beloved UW legend, basically pulling the race card in defense of Jimmy. Mario's actions aren't Jimmy's fault but it is happening. -

Ok. How's the view from the high horse?DerekJohnson said:

Your comment was in the same ballpark as making a minstrel reference. It was not coming from a good place.BeerThirty said:

Ok. Again, your opinion but duly noted.

@RoadTrip is triggered, shaking, and about to vomit. Fuck off back to the pump n dump and leave the football talk to us.

My prediction is Lake and Donovan have the same agent or some other business partner. The other is that Jimmy was so enamored with the NFL that he talked to Nathaniel Hacket or whoever was Jacksonville‘s OC and they said Donovan was great at watching film and was a great asset to their shitty teams and Jimmy bought it.DerekJohnson said:
I don't know if he thought it was a good idea, but he clearly didn't know what else to do.Edwin_Bambino said:This is the last game I will be traveling to for a long time.
At this point lose to AK state and blow this shit up. I still just can’t fathom how Jimmy thought Jon Don was a good idea, it’s fucking crazy.
Lake botched the hire, but he’s been coaching for 20+ years. He knows a lot of other coaches. In hindsight, Kellen Moore as our OC would have been a great get and even better, we wouldn’t even know the John Donovan existed. -
I'm not convinced he would've looked that much better if Jimmy's mandate is to run HB dive on every first and second down. Donovan is terrible, don't twist, but I think he's severely handicapped by Jimmy's demands for his offense.RoadDawg55 said:

And here's the canary in the coal mine. We went all in on Moore as OC and when he turned us down along with the switch from Pete to Jimmy had no plan B. Lake also decided he wanted to run Stanford Offense and if you came here, that was what you are going to run.insinceredawg said:

After there were no takers, he was left to go after the Asst Running Back Coach from Jacksonville who for $500k-$550k MORE MORE MORE than he was making (and with a additional year extra on the contract) said hell yeah I will call 3 kneel downs and punt for you coach if you want me to.
And here we are.
