Give it up for your Director and GM of NIL at UW. Fresh off graduation Emmy is in charge of signing the elite of the elite. Players now have agents and Emmy, fresh off graduation from the Foster Bus School, will run point on negotiations.

Also, those snazzy $100 Montlake Futures hats. All proceeds go into a pool and will be split among ALL UW athletes. Soccer, Lax, and on and on.

Here's Emmys take on paying high school recruits...(Spoiler: She's doing it the RIGHT way)

"We’re not going to do stuff like that,” says Emmy Armintrout, the executive director and general manager of Montlake Futures, Washington’s independent donor collective, asked specifically about the QB deal. “And we’re not going to compete with that. That’s never really been our lane, anyway, even pre-NIL. … I want to create something that’s sustainable, and that builds on Washington’s strategic position in the college marketplace already.”

That, friends, is all you need to know.

    The word "sustainable" has become, for me, one of the most disgusting and corrupt words in the English language

    The idea and intention isn’t bad

    But the practice and execution of it often misses the mark … which is true in how the UW AD uses the term

    Cohen should have been taken out with the trash . . . Her only hope is that DeBoer is a Chip Kelly-type hire.

    That's the allure
    But it's always politicized

    This is one of the most discouraging threads I've seen, in a decade full of discouraging threads.

    The only way out is a 10-win season with a NY6 bowl win. Anything less and it's over.

    And even if DeBoer does win 10 games, it's probably still over long-term, without the proper infrastructure and ethos to win

    Yep, who's running a offense that was hot 10 years ago in their concept of 4 wide, ball out of qb's hand in less than two seconds. Today more schools use it as eye candy to keep defenses from being able to stack the box and run it.

    Every year there's at least one game in late October/November I sit thru at Husky Stadium where throwing the ball is a bitch b/c of the weather. Last year was 3. At first I lamented that as how bad is it going to suck to lose the North b/c of that game.

    But then I realized you have to actually be in the race for that to matter.

    Her only redeeming quality is the dog.

    How in the fuck do you hire someone in such an important role who just graduated from business school? I read the Athletic article and at first I didn’t catch her first name and thought it was a dude.


    These dumb mother fuckers are so worried about equality and Title IV that they’re willing to endanger both the short and long term success of the football program which is probably the only money maker for the AD. 2 of Jen’s biggest hires/appointments in NIL have been a Duck who likes to bake, promote womens sports and didn’t a fan of UW and this Emmy lady who looks like she has no clue about sports, what matters to players or matters to fans

    Fuck them all. Fuck me for being a fan of a pussy program and guck you for reading this shitty nacho cheese rage poast.
    This post is so true and spot on I think it's worth a repeat

    How do 400 student athletes split the 20 pizzas total they are going to be able to buy when they all pool their proceeds from ML?

    How fun would it be to have some booster (if we have one) call out and test the commitment to UW's values/philosophy on NIL by offering a 1-2 million dollar donation with caveat it must be used to help keep local incoming freshman recruits home and "loyal to the soil", and if that's not something Washington can do, they would have to "reevaluate" the offer.

    Imagine waiting until April 21st 2022 to realize UW is a joke and isn’t worth redeeming

    I hope everyone enjoyed Dante’s TD against Bama… that’s the high water mark for the rest of your life

    Jen being removed and the balance of the AD needs to happen sooner than later

    I’d be shocked if Emmy gets that job if she wasn’t a Gates

    Until the UW (as a whole, way bigger than just the Athletic Department) values results and accountability versus being a glorified country/yacht club where the only thing that matters is if you’re in the club or not … there’s going to be a huge disconnect between perception and reality

    Since this is how they feel the University really should just join a conference like the big sky and truly embrace the culture of student athletics where results really just don't matter... in the meantime this is such a brilliant social science experiment ~ truly an exciting concept to test the principal of immediate cash flow [the difference between getting out of school with or without debt in some cases] vs academic prestige and snobbery... this is a PHD study with ground breaking consequences.
