    Mullen is out. Florida is on the board. We’ll see a lot of exits this week and next. I’d guess things start moving quickly after that.

    Another job that shoves UW down pecking order. Big Game Bob LSU/SC/Florida are all open w/ Penn State a possibility

    Fuck no! He’s a worse recruiter than Lake
    Lake is much worse. Rather have him over Campbell

    Washington is by far the easiest to make the playoffs with. Not even biased
    USC and I had a hearty laugh at your (continuous) stupidity.
    I remember USC in the playoffs

    No wait I don't

    Chip just ran Route 66 up their ass

    USC with a good catch would have a 4 year conference unbeaten streak.

    In order of attraction

    USC
    LSU
    UF
    UW

    The only top guy that could be an option for all is probably Aranda. Doubt we get him.

    I dont see Fickle, Aranda or Stoops happening which doesn't leave much for a semi guaranteed good hire. Is Deboer a guy USC would look at?

    - Goal is to have a coach announced early in the week, right after the apple cup. That would give the head coach two weeks for home visits and official visits.

    This timeline feels like a red flag to me. Does the kind of coach we want to hire make a move at this point in the season? I know we're getting to the weird time where coaches wrap up their seasons but are gone before their team's bowl game, so maybe. Are we favoring speed of decision over making the right decision? That didn't work last time.

    I guess three weeks is better than the three minute search we did for Jimmy.
    Yes. This is the time.

    Unless they are in a conference championship, the season ends next weekend. Coaches bail at that point and leave the assistants to coach the bowl.

    That gives just this week to negotiate and sign. It's mostly agents doing the talking.

    It puts the coach in with time to hire assistants and get on signing the December class.

    We’re dealing in hypotheticals. In a world where a competent coach is in charge at usc. The south has one other program worth anything. It wouldn’t be hard to go 12-1.

    I think Cohen is going to pull some coach out of her ass. Something totally unexpected. She going to get a Nick Saban, or a Brian Kelly level coach. Back up the Brinks truck and offer the moon, she needs a home run hire, and I think she's going to go for it.

    Does Jen Cohen even know what a home run is?

    Grandslam*
    Maybe if we're talking about a Denny's Grand Slam.
    You read my mind. And stole my joke.

    Dan Mullen is epic fail. Ted Lasso would be my choice quite honestly.
    Only if he’s bringing “Beard” with him.

    She better find out quick, this hire will determine her future. A run of the mill coach and she can just clean out her office early.

    I'm not sure she wants to stay that much longer. Maybe 1 or 2 more seasons (at most).

    When you look at her contract status, it’s hard to envision that she stays past the expiration … which makes summer/fall of 2023 the absolute latest she stays with no announcement

    Her coaching hire track record is awful and I don’t think anybody trusts her to make those decisions going forward

    Moreover, what UW needs going forward out of an AD isn’t necessarily in her wheel house as it pertains the need to think big time … how her reputation plays out on the fund raising side is probably a TBD

    I suspect she’s not immune to the politics and optics that it’s in her long term best interest to leave on good terms versus bad or awkward terms
