It's not rocket science. You can bet that of her final 5 candidates many were on her in case of emergency tear open envelope.

Clawson was #1 choice, Campbell #2, Deboer #3, Wilcox #4 and Lafley from BC coach was #5 imo.

That list minus Campbell looks like a #settle #beta convention.

Small picture this tells you all you need to know about JC as AD, although money she threw at MC wasn't bad at all as of 3 weeks ago, Today After Tucker, Franklin, Aranda, Venerables, and Lincoln's deals it now looks like a "have not" money amount which it just became in the world of Big Time College Football.

Bigger picture is assuming JC knows what she has to work with from Upper Campus, we just were given another data point of how important CFB is(not) to UW.

When the inevitable comes and the SEC/Big-10 have a 30 team super league which we will be apart of simply b/c of Eyeballs in Seattle and Rep. of UW, I will know how it feels to be a OSU/WSU fan where if we can make any bowl game, and pop once a decade where we go into the last 3 weeks of the season with a outside chance of winning our Quad Division we will be able to do a happy dance.

    I’m happy to bash Jen as much as the next person, but this is dumb. They tried with Campbell, offered him a ridiculous amount of money for a coach who is essentially a 7 win Sark with a Tinpot Fiesta Bowl (albeit with Iowa State). Aranda was never coming here, Lincoln went to arguably the best CFB job in the country. There weren’t a lot of great options and there were a lot of comparable programs looking. This is bitching for bitching’s sake.

    The best CFB job in the country doesn't have 2 coaches in the last 50 years worth a fuck.

    If you strike out with Campbell, option B isn't 2 just settle. her 2nd-5th choices are garbage. You know how the movie ends with any of them b4 the contract is even written up.

    Boosters found a way to pool 38 million dollars for 5 years. Not my money but I will assume the 5-10 guys in the room could have came up with another eight and got to 9 per year. Hell Dan Mullins flies himself here 1st class to sign that deal.

    If you can't get more than the 7.5 than go find a top shelf OC/DC from a blue blood top 10 school and give them a crack.

    In a typical season Kaleb's defense will shit the bed two games a year and our offense will fire enough blanks over a quarter or two for the other 2 losses.

    7 million isn't big money

    The fact that Jen didn't know that speaks volumes


    I'd say both Deboner and Campbell are not first page but they were for Jen

    It will play out regardless of whether I let it or not

    Jen is a symptom. Its pretty clear that the USC boosters pulled a coup and told President Folt either her signature or her brains would be on the contract

    UW doesn't get it and never will

    Still pumping the we do it the right way bullshit that had the Pac 9 all to happy to drop the hammer

    We'll see if the new guy fucks up the staff and enjoy more excuses why we can't

    Disagree. UW gets it, they know what it takes, but has actively decided not to pursue championship level football. There are many things they deem more important. What it takes to win big is a bad look for a school like UW.
