    Hired coach Pete and Deboer, got rid of Lake in 13 games, not easy to do when he's 7-6 AA coach navigating a pandemic.

    You all wanted Campbell.

    Gave DeBoer a raise. Gave GrubHub 2 raises. Got the players paid. Kept the band together

    I don't care about basketball. She bounced back nicely from the Lake hire. Besides I would have hired Lake too at that time

    I just like to rip Petersen
    I just like to rip Jen. Someone post the meme of her congratulating Oregon. Enough said on that.

    I watched the Fresno SJSU scrimmage on Thanksgiving and wanted DeBoer.

    His performance against UCLA and Oregon alone he was a better risk than Campbell, who looks like a better fit at WSU or Utah.

    Best $17.0M the program has spent

    Imagine how much more they would've lost if they kept Lake

    Imagine how much they would've saved had Cohen not hired Lake to begin with

    Woodward technically hired Pete

    She wanted to keep Lake as late as mid October 2021

    Touche' on the Campbell comment
    She was still giving Lake a chance to stick around around the Oregon game but lucky for us, he didn’t apologize enough.

    If we take the pressers at face value, sure. I find it hard to believe that contingency plans weren't being desperately worked out behind the scenes while publicly supporting the then-coach to the press in case you're stuck with him. She was probably trying to scrape together the money and hedging bets in the meantime. I don't believe for a second that Cohen wanted to keep Lake, hence firing him for what anybody who played football knows was basically a love tap that wouldn't have even raised an eyebrow if Lake had a winning record.
