    At this point, the lunatic fringe are the ones who want to keep Jimmy. It's pretty unified at this point.

    But where do you think things stand at this point?

    Thing is at this point the reasoning to move on from Jimmy is far from lunatic … you can very easily write up a comprehensive analysis of all the ways Jimmy is failing

    Simply put, there’s really not any metric out there that suggests that Jimmy has a legit chance at turning this around

    The problem with Wilner’s take is that he’s saying we aren’t all that talented this year. Jimmy Lake is about to miss a bowl game with a team that has a 40+% blue chip ratio. On paper, we have the talent.

    So if that talent isn’t producing, whose fault is that? If all of our hires are either no names, internal promotions, or alumni, whose fault is that? If we are bad now and Wilner says no second year coach should be fired, doesn’t that mean there be some hope for the future? What is that hope? What has happened over the last 19 months that makes us think this is redeemable with the current regime in charge?

    In short, FYFMFE

    The staff and AD want everyone to know how young we are. It’s the players fault. And when ppl started to figure out they were blaming the players they changed the narrative to it being the fans fault.

    I don’t think we are especially talented and the blue chip stuff was always bullshit. A lot of them have transferred and most of them were low 4 star guys that the blue bloods didn’t want.

    The Clemson of the West stuff was always bullshit because Clemson and the other schools on the list have/had way more actually elite, top 50-100 guys.

    A bottom feeder UW team is more efficient for Jon than Pornhub.

    Wilner is a Cal fan, right? So he must be pining for Jimmy Fake to return so that Cal has a good chance of beating UW down there next year.

    The team is not super talented but when stacked up vs the feast of the conference they should be no
    Worse that 7-2 with an average coach.

    You’re more talented than these schools.

    Osu
    Wazzu
    Arizona
    Cal
    Stanford
    Colorado

    Have as much talent as the rest of the teams to go 1-2. It’s about what you’re doing with the talent you have vs your peers and it is an under Performence of epic proportions.


    Completely agree. And a lot of it does have to do with a lack of development, shitty schemes, and the shitty culture. I just don’t see a ton of guys that I think are genuinely good. A lot of average or worse players in our two deeps.

    They don't look good because of the reasons you mentioned in your first sentence. Talented players with bad schemes and bad coaching look average or below at all the other schools with high blue chop ratio too.

    Your assertion that the roster is dominated by low 4* that nobody else wanted isn't true either. That wasn't the case in any of Petersens classes.

    I don’t think it’s dominated by them. We have had a lot of four star busts tho.
