    Wittingham would be dope. His teams are stubborn as fuck, play defense. They have only lacked elite qbs and wrs, which I think he can access at UW.

    B1G membership would be a good selling point for him.

    Whittingham would be interesting. His teams are Pat Hill TUFF, and his style of ball would play well in the B1G. The problem is he’s 64, and who knows how much longer he wants to coach.

    If Florida sucks next year, which they probably will (insane schedule), then the AD is gone and so is Napier.

    And then Fisch is gone after one year.

    No.

    Yes yes yes

    My concern with hiring Leipold in a matter of days is that Dannen just said, “Find me someone who’s like DeBoer, quick.”

    Have you watched Kansas play at all? Dude can coach.
    not even once

    No doubt. But is he the best option? Can he recruit at the level we need to rebuild? How does he handle boosters? The roster is nowhere near as talented as DeBoer got it. Do we lose anything by waiting a week to make sure we have the right guy? This class is a throwaway and most of the talent that we wanted to keep is already in the portal.

    Leipold is 59. Carroll is 72. Just for context.

    I just want 8 years of stability. I feel like these older guys will stay until retirement. If UW needs to rebuild I want the coach who builds it to be here to coach the finished product and grow off that success.

    Thank you. I was just about to google Leipold’s age.

    What is stability? 7-9 wins?

    If they’re young, they’ll leave.

    Whittingham fits traditional Husky Football (balanced offense, nasty on D) but what's his buyout?

    Two of his three wifes.

    Leipold

    Dude was a winner, and turned programs into winners. Wouldn’t be made at him. Plus his alma isn’t a D1.

    Fisch is Florida, but also has Michigan ties if I read that right. Khakis leaves and he fills after 2 here. Looking for someone primed to put a life down.

    Stability at UW should be making the playoff every year, or at least in a position to make it every November.

    No.

    So settle for mediocrity because a good coach will probably just leave us
    That's not what I said, but nice try
    That's the essence of what you're conveying
    No, it isn't.

    Fisch is a great coach but his alma mater is in the wilderness and that job has a 80% chance of opening up next year

    There are plenty of other good hires where that isn't the case.

    Whittingham, Pete Carroll, Petersen, Klieman
    3/4 you listed are old and probably wouldn’t be at UW long either.

    Fisch brings Fajita and McMillan and you could do a lot worse than that as long as you can break the bank and get a big time DC

    Does Fajita come with a side of nachos? Aksin' for a fren.

    @CFetters_Nacho_Lover
    Better come with a fucking platter or I burn the stadium to the ground.

    I’m going to be unhappy regardless of who it is so let’s get this over with.

    You may only have 90 posts, but you seem primed to settle in for a long tenure at Hardcore Husky.
    Didn’t you saw deboner was going to have a long tenure…
    I’m not Dutch.
    Fat?
    I know better than to step into Fetters’ domain.
    Smart move new fish.

    Was thinking an 8 win floor and playoffs every couple years.
