    I've never felt that he really wanted this job. I'm sure he's happy with his paycheck and is likely already thinking about his next gig

    Dude is definitely going to be a career DC, the HC is not for him

    I watched part of it. I don't agree he looks like a deer in headlights at all. But him saying he's proud of his guys, fuck that nonsense. That's part of the problem right there. You just lost to Oregon State for crissakes Jimmy.

    I hate to make a Don James reference, but when I was writing Husky Football in the Don James Era, I spent countless hours at Suzzallo researching microfilm of Seattle Times and Seattle P-I articles. I burst out laughing when I found a Don James quote after Washington beat ASU 31-7 on the road. He said he was disappointed in how they played and something like if they kept playing like that they were going to get beat several times during the season.

    You don't praise your team after losing to Oregon State. Fuck.

    I remember him criticizing a blowout win over Pacific in the 80s. It stuck with me as a little kid.

    I'm going off memory, but I think we beat Pacific 34-14 in 1981 and 31-3 in 1992. He was unhappy both times.

    Just looked it up, the 1992 score was actually 31-7

    It was '87. I was in third grade. My friend was wondering why he was upset. I was still mad that aTm skull fucked us the week before. I was no doog, even then.

    I think Jimmy wanted the UW job thinking he’d be able to parlay this job into something bigger and better
