Owen seriously in play


I woke up to the realization that we are truly fucked
DeBoer probably is a great coach which makes it worse. The expectation was that Sark would crash at USC and he did. I'd love for DeBoer to go 5-7 and get caught with dead hookers in his trunk and Grubb finally is revealed as a family massacre serial killer but none of that helps UW now.
Kill it. Starve it. The management that allowed the program to be in this position is unacceptable.
On the bright side there is no bright side. Truly fucked

They received the death penalty. Troy Dannen ain’t up for the job. He went against a stone cold killer and took a screw driver to the neck.
-
The right coach can turn it around in 2 years... This doesn't have to be a Gilby/Ty free fall... With NIL and the portal it's definitely possible...
This hire is insanely important. -
The AD killed the program letting this slow motion train wreck sneak up on them over the last 12 months. this is the new ceiling and it ain’t happening again for 10 years.
I’m boxing up my purple stuff and moving on with my life
Fuck me for letting penix and DeBoer suck me back in after covid cured me of UW. -

I respectively disagree. We offered 9.5 to a coach. We will get a guy and that guy will salvage next year. It won’t be what it could’ve been, but we will get a guy.
In 2008, the roster was ok, but everything else was gutted. The people who constructed that 9.5 offer are still there and can poach another coach.
The risk to my perspective: the people aren’t good. I don’t think losing DeBitch is the proper measurement however. We lost him to the super agent and Bama. We are not equivalent right now with Bama. We’re just not.
However, this job is very attractive. Two coaches took two teams to the CFP. There’s not many other programs that can say they’ve done that. It can be done again.
Finally, I fucking hate KFDB and will enjoy Georgia’s plunge ring of Bama next year. The South is going to hate KDB so fast. It’s in the clouds. -

If DeBoer was inevitable, Dannen should have announced the new coach 1hr later, that would be a salvage move.
Instead he spent the week writing PR about how hard he tried and is now starting the search. Meanwhile the roster is getting gutted.
These aren’t serious people, they are destroying the asset, same as they always have. -
This is true. I stopped watching the NFL and my Sundays have been amazing. I still needed sports though and watched a lot of college football.PurpleBaze said:The bright side is that you can now free up your Saturdays.

The best thing about college football is that if UW could hire away a great coach today leaving another program in shambles and took their players we'd be celebrating a job well done
Cut throat bidness. -
Thank you. I think it sums up the state of things.PineapplePirate said:

You don’t throw 8.5 or eventually 9.5 at the dirty Dutchman until he wins the CCG. Sounds like they tried their best to get him renewed and he wouldn’t commit.
How would we feel about DeBoer on a 9 million deal after an Apple Cup loss ?
AMC stabbed the Kewg in the back to get to the B1G and was willing to go to 9.5 million on DeBoer. Seems like UW cares about football, but if a guy wants to be the Bamma coach what are you gonna do ? Don James and Pete didn’t want to be the Bamma coach. -
i dont care if they go owen, so long as they can tackle on defense and make every game ugly. that is the bar, for me.
fuck the offense -

8.5 didn't get it done. That's the institutional side. Low ball
It was obvious it would take 10 to 12. You don't get credit for making a shitty offer that wasn't accepted. 2nd place doesn't pay in this racket
The idea that this mythical 9 million is now in play for some fuckhead is something I need to see to believe
12 million to Lane and I'm back in again
Otherwise enjoy losing to Purdue -
I should have known the sabotage was the script when the school hired a white male to take over the AD
The woke army always gives white men their most downtrodden scripts -
Will probably make a decent enough hire to get back to Alamo bowl eventually. NIL and portal should be enough that this program can maintain Wisconsin levels long term. Next year is almost certainly a disaster though, could honestly be 2-10 unless they manage to hire a coach that brings an entire roster with him.
It’s gonna be fun for like 2 weeks when shit ass programs “stun the world” by beating a team that just went 14-1. -

It would be nice to have a person to blame but the reason he left is because he wants an easier road to the NC. Doesn’t want to build a program. He wasn’t who we thought he was. -
As I said from the very start...
This is worse than 0-12, the program is actually more fucked now than it was even after Willingham. No coach in the fucking 100+ year history of UW has left UW in a worse position. Its an actual possibility that UW is fielding a team of FCS mercenaries and walk-ons next year.
If Debaor wanted to leave or not, I dont know if I care, he is gone. UW probably offered him a pretty fair deal, when they needed to offer him an extravagant one before the ball started rolling.
There are only two options on the table and both will cost more than if UW AD didn't just get anally raped by Deboar and Jimmy Sexton:- Mail it in with a coordinator or shitty MWC coach, accept the roster is fucked for 2-3 years, accept 3-5 years of
- Hire an experienced GM coach (Pete and/or Pete?) with an actual 5 year plan, accept you have to spend top money on a DC and OC, commit to spending a fuck ton of money to being Colorado in the portal but not retarded on the field, next year is a 3-5 win season probably, if you have competent management year 2 doesn't have to suck.
- Petersen (or Carrol IDK); Stop the bleeding... guilt him into, trick him into, wgaf, convince this quitter fuck to come back and be a GM, he doesn't need to do the rah rah recruiting shit he hated, or the booster stuff, or the play calling, he needs to be the NFL GM coach. Let him cut way back on the stuff he hated. Ask him for 5 years and then he can have whatever job and salary in the UW academis office he wants, he can have a kinesiology lab named after him or something. Can probably get him for 4-5 mil.
- Kliffkingsbery; He has been a big time head coach, likes all the rah rah energy shit Petersen hates, can play call and run a modern offense, he can run everything himself if needed. Make him the highest paid OC in the country (Grubb was the 2nd highest paid ass coach at only 2 million), fuck it pay Kliff 3 if you need to. Give him a coaching option contract that at the end of 5 years, hes gets the HC job if Pete is not released before that.
- DC; There are a ton of options out there, just higher the best possible older fuck that has his shit together to run the defense so Petersen doesn't have to worry about shit. A top DC isn't really that expensive. Utahs DC or Iowas DCs are only getting 1.5 mil for example.
- All of that, making the OC and the DC the highest paid coordinators in the country, is still significantly cheaper than the ~17 million UW was ready to spend to keep Debore and his staff, take the extra 7 million, spend half of it to fill out the rest of the staff take the other half and spend it on the portal.

I don’t understand the portal well enough. Even if we all sacrifice our dickholes to Bill Gates and get blank checks for NIL, then what? Is there another opportunity to poach every player in the country or just those whose coaches bailed on them?
-
We’d poach the coach’s players, but only that team, at least until the spring portal opens. If they hire a coordinator there won’t be transfers in until spring. It could be literal 7 on 7 spring game in that case.DoogmanRefund said:I don’t understand the portal well enough.
