    No cost is too high in the defense of freedom

    Freedom isn't free.
    Did you know that the F in China stands for freedom?

    This is honestly the most entertained I’ve been about UW Football in a decade.

    Now you know what the Taggart year was like around here.

    Lake has been publicly raked over the coals, non stop, for about a week now. He lost his composure on the sidelines and has now been publicly humiliated by his employer. His own staff members won't speak out for him when given an opening. Even the media is at a near consensus that he's failed and needs termination.

    So...I still don't buy it that he's keeping his job. He's ruined as a head coach now and it's almost impossible for me to believe that even Jenn and the upper campus would argue otherwise.

    I still don't understand what process they are following. The one game suspension is weird. Firing the OC points toward the HC sticking around. I dont know what's going on exactly, but I'll believe Lake keeps his job when I see it.

    Jimmy is evolving. Jen's so proud of him.

    If Jen fires Lake it will look bad on her since she's the one who hired him in the first place- it may undermine her judgment particulars giver her questionable head coaching hires in both MMB (Mike Hopkins) & WBB (Jody Wynn). The UW football, men's basketball and women's basketball programs have all dropped under her watch with her hired head coaches leading the way. Although the women's basketball program looks like it may have a solid experienced head coach in former Rice head coach Tina Langley who was just hired this off season.

    I understand that mindset but since the football program is severely underachieving and creating bad PR at the same time it just may highlight her other head coaching hiring mistakes as people take in the totality of Jen Cohen's coaching hiring acumen.
