    People hate on Jen, for obvious reasons, but the fact remains that despite all the whinging to the contrary, people in power on Montlake still care about football. Y'all? just fired a head coach after 13 games, and it wasn't for waving a piece of paper in some guy's face. Sark went 7-6 three straight years and got a promotion. Jimmy got the hook for doing it once. Shaw should be door ass out, but they dgaf, he beat a 6 loss Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl 10 years ago. Wilcox fucking sucks, they dgaf, something about Nobel Prizes. Helton malingered at USC 2 years too long when they probably maybe could have had fucking Urban Meyer. Edwards is a shit show, but that sleeping giant is Terri Schiavo. Dorrell is a fucking joke. Kelly hasn't taken his asperger's medication in half a decade, yet a UCLA program with arguably the best combo of tradition, location and academis prowess in the nation doesn't have the balls to cut ties and aim higher. Uncle Phil cares about football but sat there while slingblade ran through is rolodex of retards at DC. UW did the needful earlier than about 95% of other programs in the nation, including Oregon, have ever done. Congrats, you're not dead.

    Good post. Jen got extremely lucky that Jimmy was so incompetent, she almost had no choice but to fire him. Not only was his product shit and straight AIDS on the field, but everything he did off the field sucked too. If he had put in a little bit of effort/actually tried in the off field stuff and didn't say stupid fucking shit constantly, he would still have a job this season and most likely next.
    If she REALLY fired Jimmy, he wouldn’t be waking away with $10 million

    Jen gave Jimmy a paid vacation.

    Nothing bold or courageous about that.

    This was a Jen Cohen quote about Jimmy from four weeks ago:

    "One of the things I love about Jimmy is his resiliency and his toughness. I think he’s learning a lot. He’s a talented coach. We hired him because he’s an elite recruiter and an elite developer, and I believe in those skills and his talents."

    He might of been all that. He got $millions and became a lazy fucktard

    Something changed. You will never get everyone to like you but Lake was pretty popular once upon a time. I suppose it was Lake that changed. Former players tend to be loyal but we have the 2019 transfers in evidence

    All Jimmy had to do when King was here was focus on one specific position. He was great at that. Coaching and recruiting both. The more responsibility he got, the more he started to decay and spread himself thin.
    Hard lesson to learn -- delegation. That's why you hire people around you who are smarter and better than you.

    That wasn't a very academically prowess tweet. Lake prolly doesn't approve.

    Dawgman did a podcast today with Cooper Petagna and it was one of the most brutally honest and refreshing take on Lake and the UW coaching situation going forward. Mainly just Cooper talking for any of you that can't handle the other guys.

    TLDL: Cooper thinks UW can easily be a national competitive team again if they get a coach that recruits (don't lose EE and JT) and knows how to delegate and appropriately use his staff to adjust to the times (not an arrogant coach with yes men)

    That all seems to be a rather water is wet series of comments.

    It was a great interview and I’m sure his firing was one of the early signs that Sonic talked about. Outside of Kim doing the interviewing, he was honest felt under Petersen we should have recruited better, of course Kim the “ stars don’t matter” crowd would not dare question him when he made it clear recruiting is over development. Now the whole Dawgman staff is about brininging in a recruiter after spewing the false narrative development trumps recruiting “stars don’t matter”

    The handsome and swarthy Cuban south of here has made that point abundantly clear. You can certainly underachieve with talent and overachieve without it. But if you're going to be really good, you need good DNA and you need to put it together. why not bofe.gif?
