Fisch is not the guy and we will be worse next year

Not seeing any improvement all year
Special teams has gotten worse
Refusing to play Demond more
The list goes on and on

Being with the team for more than 6 months will probably help
He gets 3 years. If the team isn't at double digit wins in 3 he isn't the guy
-
-
When interviewed he invariably flashes his used car salesman smile. He needs to watch Mike Leach footage and reboot his schtick
-
I'm hearing it's unfair to judge Fisch until year 3 or 4.
-
The enthusiasm and excitement is dead once again
Doesn't matter if Fisch turns out to be great because poor old Worshington couldn't afford to keep him
But at least they didn't overpay to keep DeBoer so we have that going for us which is nice
-
Nobody knows how much damage DeBoer did to the program, we can't compete with the NIL these days, he has a CONTRACT, etc., etc.

DeBoer wasn't going to stay at UW, it's strange you keep pretending that he was.
-
He may not get more than 2 if the OL play and QB play don't get better.
-
Dick Baird once said you need to wait 5-8 years
-
But who at UW is going to fire him after year 2?
-
I would tend to agree with you but we don't know that for sure. I agree with Race to the extent that we should have been much more aggressive to keep him. $9 million offer was an underbid.
-
Pat Chun, if he can find a big booster or two who will pay a lot.
-
UW could have offered $12 and he wouldn't have stayed because Alabama would have exceeded it. After Jen Cohen left and DeBoer hired Sexton as an agent, the die was cast.
It's kind of silly to keep debating it.
-
These are all assumptions.
-
But do you really think if UW offered him $12 million and Alabama offered him $12 million, he would have stayed after hiring Sexton and having to deal with a new AD at UW in Dannen, who apparently was an ass?
-
And your evidence is what?
Of course he would stay with support and money
Loser school loser fans
-
15 million and it was worth it
Same old shit
-
Bama would've paid 17
You think they are getting big dicked by Washignton when that coach doesn't want to be there?
-
The lack of in season improvement is the worst part. Of course I played golf today because I have half a brain but if the coach is making me play golf instead of watch the game then he’s probably the wrong coach.
He does get 2 years but he’s 1/3 of the way through that now and better show some shit in a hurry.
-
Not only that but Jimmy Sexton is from Tennessee and exclusively represents SEC coaches. Why would DeBoer hire Saban's agent if he wasn't planning on going to the SEC?
-
We call it the Frank Beamer method.
-
remember, Pat Chun did not hire Jess Fisch and his buyout is minuscule
-
The buyout is if he leaves. I'm pretty sure UW owes him most, if not all, of his remaining contract (similar to Jimmy Lake being on the books for multiple years).
-
No they wouldn't have. They didn't raise FSU for Norvell
So we have a couple opinions not facts
And if they wouldn't keep DeBoer it doesn't matter what Fisch does
Loser university
-
Yup. UW isn’t firing Fishdicks after year 3. No way. That’d be upwards of 30 million to part ways at that point. Upper campus needed to have their arms twisted to pony up the 13 million to get Jimmy to go away. UW is stuck with Jedd for at least four, maybe five years. He’s got all the time in the world. There’s a reason there is no urgency whatsoever about this season. Shit, he’s still constantly rotating seven OL halfway into the season. He gives two fucks about this team, this year. He’s building from the ground up and essentially said as much from his first press conference. Obligatory, 2026 will be special.
-
You put forth assumptions and then say its silly to continue to discuss it, as if you're brandishing facts.
We can assume that if offered equal money DeBoer would have gone to Bama, and I would agree with you in assuming that.
But we can never really know, because UW didn't even try. Dannen admitted as much in the aftermath of DeBoer's exit.
-
Dannen is a fucking idiot and he will bolt or retire before he has to make a football hire at Nebraska. He took the UW job thinking that Kalen's situation would be easy to maintain and look what happened.
A complete fucking tool that they regret just hiring because the search firm told them to. Why they poached Chun as someone they were actually familiar with.
-
Well it's fact that Jen Cohen left UW for USC and it's fact that DeBoer hired Sexton. Sexton was Saban's agent and only represents SEC coaches.
What are the facts that point to even a slight possibility DeBoer would have stayed?
-
9 million being an insulting low ball offer
-
Those are good points. I'm just an immature adult who doesn't have much patience for a rebuild. Losing McCree and realizing that Azzopardi isn't adds to the misery.
Still, the self-inflicted stuff hurts and I'd be totally fine being 6-2 with losses @Iowa and @Indiana rather than 4-4 with losses against WSU and @Rutgers too.
FWIW, this is the first time UW had back to back 10+ point losses since 2015 (CP's 2nd year).
