Wilner finally surrenders to Lunatic Fringe

Sums up my thoughts exactly. I thought he would have a few years of success before it came undone. When he hired JonDon I knew he sucked.ChillyDawg said:Media = Medium = Hypnotizing Minds
When a story is getting out like this one is it's usually preparing the readers/fanbase for a future paradigm related event.
I like Jimmy Lake as a person but not as the head coach of the UW football team. I supported his hire early on until he hired John Donovan as his OC then questioned his judgment. African American head coaches in college football are few and far between especially at power 5 programs. If Lake had been provided an opportunity that many dream of he should hire, surround himself with the best people to ensure the best possible environment for his head coaching tenure. He failed at that big time with the hiring of a secretarial assistant to the assistant RB coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars at UW TE coach Derham Cato's recommendation.
Jimmy Lake, if fired-resigns-bought out, has no one to blame but himself in this situation. He gave a lot ammunition to everyone that wanted him fired for whatever reason(s). -

Even so, holy shit what a terrible take, even by Wilner standards. -
The one thing that has been made obvious over the past year or so is wilner’s takes are not his own. He is spoon fed bs from sources and parrots it. The only thing that are his own are his game predictions.TaggartsUHaulDriver said:

Wilner gets a little bit of a pass from me for being the lead person in the media to really go after Larry Scott (him and Canzano) but holy fuck the dude's ideas are fucking stupid.

Wilcox to UW isn't happening and Wilner knows it,
He's simultaneously rubbing Wilcox's balls, tweaking the Cal administration and flinging turds at the part of the UW fan base that regularly bashes his hot takes
Cal is in its current Covid predicament for two reasons:
1) Excessive lockdown-type restrictions by State of California/City of Berkeley
2) Despite the protocols in place, 44 players tested positive and that's why the USC game has been pushed back 3 weeks.
The University of Subaru is not hiring a coach with that black mark on his record.
Just won't do it. -

Which is why, I'll say it again, Jen can't be allowed to make this hire.

If the AD’s and coaches liked Larry Scott the pac12 hotline would not have been critical at all of the commissioner. He has zero ideas of his own.dnc said:Wilner gets a little bit of a pass from me for being the lead person in the media to really go after Larry Scott (him and Canzano) but holy fuck the dude's ideas are fucking stupid.
CanzAno did all the work on that and most coaches and AD’s hate him. -
Just for (not) fun where does cox rank in the p12?
Witt
Shaw
Cristo
Cox?

That’s not obvious at all. We aren’t hiring a 3-6 coach from Cal. Especially amid all this press about their covid situation. Wake up.dnc said:

When you take the position that UW will almost always do the opposite of what logical sports fans, writers, etc. think should happen, you hold the opinion that Cohen is seriously considering hiring Wilcox.FremontTroll said:

Wilner:
(a) likes Wilcox personally and is trying to help him,
(b) hates Berkeley's University Health Services and is slighting them, and
(c) is trolling UW fans who justifiably call him out for his spectacularly terrible takes in '21.
That's what this is. -

Kim is another mouthpiece for Jen that is pimping Wilcox harder than ever. There is more to it. The AD actually thinks this Is a decent idea.FremontTroll said:

We aren’t hiring Wilcox.

I remember thinking that UW would NEVER hire the coach they beat like a drum when he was at Stanford and who had just been fired by Notre Dame
@AtomicDawg knows
Never bet against the wrong move -

Oregon grad
Has ties to Cal
Players go to class
Beat Oregon and USC. And lost to Oregon the RIGHT way this year.

Something has gone wrong on the Farm and he is either burned out or Stanford decided to drop serious football
Shaw has shown he can do it. If UW is so serious that he would get more support here for big time winning he probably could.
I wouldn't do it but he fits the mold of the guy you would. If that makes sense

Literally every idiot in their mom's basement predicted he wouldn't be able to maintain what Harbaugh built and that Stanford would slide back into mediocrity. And lo and behold, that is exactly what happened? -
I believe it's because the early signing period has made it much, much harder for him to get really good players. Or at least he whined about it at the time and hasn't had a .500 season since.RaceBannon said:

I was one of those idiots but a look at the record shows he performed past the "Harbaugh players" line. He had an 8 year run better than the run Petersen is so wistfully remembered for. And he won 2 Rose BowlsFremontTroll said:

Looks like a six-year run to me. Probably would have been four but for Christian McCaffrey.RaceBannon said:

Also remember when he signed a class of TWELVE in 2013? That was brilliant. -
Hire Dan Lanning from UGA and give him a big staff budget if you want to go cheaper. Fuck off with this Wilcox bullshit.

I gave him all the way to the 9-4 in honor of Pete's 8-5. I'm classy like thatFremontTroll said:

Saying a team would have been bad if they didn't have their good players is not academically prowess
