Was Jimmy just lazy?

Jimmy is a liar. Right after Donovan was hired Jimmy said that when talking with his NFL contacts, that they kept coming back to John Donovan. All conversations kept coming back to this guy. It smelled like bullshit then and is obvious bullshit now.

This is the big thing. Jimmy is a huge liar. He has surface charm but there's not a lot underneath. He's been straight up lying the whole time about a lot of things.TheGhost206 said:Jimmy is a liar.

That was the dumbest hire Lake made to his staff and most likely the biggest factor that cost him his job over the long term. Thank UW TE coach Derham Cato who recommended Donovan to Lake.
It's not Cato's fault Jimmy Lake was dumb enough to ask, let alone take his advice. -
This. He's made so many cringy comments that were obvious lies over his short tenure.Kingdome_Urinals said:

-ALL his NFL contacts were recommending John Donovan
-They conducted a national search for a DC before circling back to BG
-He gets texts from NFL GMs praising him for developing players right
CP or any head coach worth a damn would never make these bold statements. The sad thing was he's so delusional and arrogant that he thought ppl would believe his bullshit.

In hindsight, this sounds like NFL people wanted Jimmy to shut up and stop bothering them, so they gave him Donovan's name knowing Donovan would say yesTheGhost206 said:Jimmy is a liar.

It’s his fault he recommended who he did. Not that he was hired. Too many words to say fire everyone and bleach the program.dnc said:

The NFL and the JAGS in particular wanted DonJon's ass out of the league. I think Jimmy got played, sold the bill of goods and in turn tried to sell that shit to us. -
Who in the NFL, outside of Jacksonville, would even know who Donovan is?NEsnake12 said:

They would know enough after a 5min search to say fuck noFremontTroll said:

His brother coached a team that was soft, gave inconsistent effort, and couldn’t tackle. The defensive stats are so skewed. There was nothing to defend about recruiting because it can’t be defended.insinceredawg said:The only two tweets I've ever seen had blocked replies were Jimmy's apology and this one from his brother
I’m not even upset at Lake. He’s a good assistant that wasn’t cut out for the head coaching job. UW actually did the right thing and cut bait before it got worse. -

JonDon, Gregory or Wilcox if he were hired? -
Jen hires JonDon and blames Jimmy for the season? Priceless…KrunkJuice said:

Correct, I couldn’t even name all the Seahawks assistants, let alone the assistants to the assistants. And I follow football.CuntWaffle said:

A version of Jimmy Lake who has the presence of mind and discipline to not push a player is a version of Jimmy Lake that would have the discipline to recruit well, carefully consider his coaching hires, and put together a 8-win season.TheHB said:If he doesn't go Woody Hayes on the sidelines, I have a hard time believing Cohen fires him. At least she probably lets him coach the rest of the season.
My point is, there is no Jimmy Lake who wins 4 games and doesn’t push that player or do something else incredibly dumb. It takes the same shitty attributes to do both.
Eventually we would see both a shit product and shit behavior out of him this year. Surprised it didn’t happen sooner. It’s not that he’s lazy, he’s just a loser.
