    Need to give ourselves a reality check. We see UW as a football program that is a couple of good hires away from being back on the path to our rightful place amongst the elite. The rest of the CFB world, including the coaches we want to hire, see us as a dumpster fire, nested in a shit hole of a city, managed by a bunch of dip shits, supported by a mostly apathetic bunch of doog fans, in the Conference of Champions Losers.

    We ain't getting a big time coach at this point. Time to think longterm about how we do move up the coaching ladder. We're going to have to see LSU and USC make hires, wait for the seat shuffling to end in the aftermath, then take a run at one of the more capable lower-2nd tier coaches left out of the mix.

    Thinking any different is just being a doog.

    90 percent of any job openings are dumpster fires. There is a pecking order like you said. Money can solve most of the issues. It’s just a matter of if they want to spend.

    There are plenty of successful coaches to be had after any blue bloods fill vacancies. I am not worried about the coaching pool. The leadership in our AD is the issue.

    UW is one of eleven teams to ever appear in the CFP.

    We'll make sure to add that to the job posting.

    You'll have to wait for SC, LSU, Florida, and possibly Penn State. Lincoln Riley has to start realizing he's never going to win one and the NFL chances will dry up so OU could potentially open up.

    If Sparty can afford $8.5M for a guy with three seasons under his belt (two were awful) then UW is probably pretty far down the list in terms of salary.

    Coug was paying Rolo more than what UW had committed to its HC. Doesn't matter that Lake sucks, etc. UW was trying to pinch pennies. The "culture" doesn't have it in them to pay the big dollars to a heathen football coach.

    Leipold. Most on that list aren’t options and the ones that are suck. Leipold would scare the shit out of me.

    Money is the great equalizer. But only if you spend it.

    UW is competing with LSU, USC and possibly Florida, Penn St. and Texas for their next hire. Good luck the rest of the way.

    Or hire a 3rd tier coach to replace the current, disgraced 3rd tier coach and be done with it.

    I'm hearing Wilcox would be a great hire because Saban would have a losing record at Cal
