    Wilcox wanted the job in 2O13 because he felt like he was the reason we won 9 that year.

    If he's fired up and wants to be a daWg and wage the war against meat (and Stoops won't come here) then whatever 'Lets Roll' or whatever was Rolovich's stupid fucking slogan...

    Wilcox is also boring as shit. I know he's at Cal but he looks perpetually indifferent on the sidelines

    Football players are the worst evaluators of football coaches.

    The skill set and mental approach required to succeed in football is the exact opposite of that required for picking good coaches. Science.

    What am I missing here? He's 24–27. Hard pass.

    Alex Grinch? He had a good year in like ‘16 and has probably averaged giving up 30 ppg since. How does he keep making mentions?

    My stance on Wilcox is that I'm not sure he wouldn't be good. I don't understand why he's even in the conversation though. He's nowhere near the tier UW should be looking at. Not until he has coached a winner somewhere. So far all he has done is leave the SEC to be a part of the Sark party, fail upward with Sark to USC, then settle for a hopeless HC gig at a program who's aspiration is to compete for bowl games. What about his history and resume suggests he is in the elite tier of potentially available coaches?

    Because you’re not selling Husky football. You’re selling working for an apathetic university that is more supportive of its Olympic sports than FB and MBB. You’re also selling a broken roster with massive holes after two years of suspect recruiting and a good amount of portalgasms.

    The three most impactful PAC-12 coaches in 20 years were a 9/11 Truther retread from pro football, a chubby adorable little rascal from New Hampshire who refused to not speak out the side of his mouth, and a dude who had teeth that came out of a 1982 Dental Catalogue from Boise. What do the three of them have in common? Nothing. Hire the best coach you can, and if Wilcox is the best you *can* hire, that’s who you hire.

    Theit entire thing is 'I beat good schools at a school that wants to drop football.'

    If you're not into that then there's no point in rage posting.

    But him and Sirmon want us badly. Can you blame them?

    Just wrote 35 emails to UW AD under different DAWG emails supporting the hiring of a classy coach, who did the best he could with his hands tied at Cal. Already has UW ties and won’t let athletics get in the way of the student athletes achieving their goals of representing the University of Washington after their football careers come to a close in the REAL world and not just at internships at NIKE.

    Good luck rest of the way.

    That's not really an endorsement. He picked him out of a shitty list of four. I'd like to see a real list given to Brock and see who he selects.

    Wilcox for DC and Kellen for OC (make him say no Jen)

    Who wouldn’t want to come in with the offensive talent Washington has and the shit performance in 21. Instant street Cred.

    I said the same thing on twatter. Brock also could’ve said no one from that list is a good fit.

    Man that's some defeatist shit there....Committing to a top tier coach would surely signal to said coach that the university is at least willing to win.

    The point some of us are trying to make is yes, UW should be an elite coaching job in CFB, but given the leadership up the chain from the HC and the environment at the school, no "big name" coach is going to put up with with this bullshit unless you seriously back the Brinks truck up.

    I agree, we should commit to a top tier coach. But, if you were a top tier coach looking at Florida/Miami/LSU/PennState/USC, would you come up here with Cohen as your boss and that ding dong on upper campus?

    If UW is really committed to winning, they'd show Cohen the door before making this hire.

    At this point Kellen would probably say no to a HC offer. The idea of either him or Wilcox coming here as a coordinator is laughable.
    The only HC gig Moore will take is in the NFL with my Dallas Cowboys (assuming Jerry doesn't wait too long).

    He's going to be on the NFL shortlist for head coaches, if he's not already. The NFL's current hard-on for the young offensive wunderkids all but ensures that Moore now has a lifetime membership to the league's closed loop of recycled head coaches, success optional. That kind of money and job security is hard to pass up.

    We had a small window in early 2020 where Kellen Moore was a possibility. That window is now shut.
    No more with the BSU tree. No more, please.

    Moore's a different thing. He never coached with Pete or any of the Boise guys. He's not Boise tree as far as coaching goes.

    Sure.gif. Don't you try to bully me. Even @GrandpaSankey can see Kellen Moore bleeds blue and orange.

    He need orthodontic work, too,

    Fuck that.
