Since Harv typed out this poast, the DAWGS have finished #4, #8, 3 other top 15 appearances, 9 bowl games.
Could be better. And as we now know...could also be a lot fucking worse.
Cheers Harv. Hopefully the next decade is even better than the last one. If KDB is the coach...it will be a lot better. -
Aged like milk. Kim 2.0 (whoever she is)DerekJohnson said:If you remove the flippant tone of the post and look at what he is saying, there is some truth there to what Harvey's saying. But here's the part Harvey's missing: Just like the current state of the country, had Romney won, then a lot of money that people have squirreled away and sat on during the Obama era would be re-entering the economy right now like a gusher. Investors and entrepreneurs we thought were gone would be back in play.
The same thing would have been true had we hired Mora in 2007. We would have seen a lot of DAWGS come back into the fold. But we stayed with Willingham followed by Sark, and the DAWGS continued to leave and not come back. Attendance is still down.
If we were to hire Mora or Gary Patterson now or next year, that would be the barometer by which to judge all this. If the new fans entering the fold were simply bandwagoners, then Harvey would be largely correct in his assessment. But I think there would be a big sigh of relief from a lot of DAWGS and they would come back with relief.
The nation went with Obama, and we live in an ever-increasing anti-business climate. If UW football continues along the same path it's on, a new stadium won't make much difference to the Huskies being what they were and could be. -
