    What is a rainbow and sunshine person?

    All I know is that Greg is very intelligent, bleeds purple and gold as well as knows a lot about basketball and football in order to build up the programs the right way plus he is highly respected in the greater Seattle community, UW alumni and by UW boosters.

    Dude has been a lake and ty apologist in the past. Great football player though.
    And an even greater person that would be able to resurrect the major athletic programs while at the same time rally the UW fanbase, boosters and community together in any type of weather.

    Wild idea here- how about someone with experience leading an Athletic Department?

    There has got to be someone we can find from the National Association of Pool Boys.

    Trying to keep things at par.

    UW is one of the largest and richest departments in the country. Both major head coaches are first time head coaches. Disaster. Our AD is a first timer. Disaster.

    So yeah, maybe we actually hire someone with experience this time around.
    The last time we hired a coach without previous head coaching experience and that coach managed to take us to the Rose Bowl was 1957. All more recent Rose Bowl appearances have come from coaches with previous HC experience.

    Amazing that 3 coaches have won 7 Rose Bowls since 57 here

    The rest didn't

    They were all excited to be at the Rose Bowl and savored the moment.
