people here don’t want to admit it what the real reason is. Same with usc fans. It’s just easier to say “that kid chasing the bag” instead of acknowledging the real issues

There's a shit load of reasons Washington has struggled with stuff like this for a long time that people talk about. Didn't Dong James introduce Reagan at a function and that really started the downfall of the progrum?
Has anyone ever read a thread here? I do know we had a guy transfer from UW to Oregon and he said he did it because they paid him enough to pay his bills and he had to drive Door Dash to survive at UW and it became a UW troll meme.
I thought long and hard and I thought the best source to go to figure out what the issues and advantages are with all this stuff and decided anonymous Oregon online trolls were the best source and they all tell me it has nothing to do with money so that's my stance now.

Well, you can say the same thing with a tweak: I thought online posters talking shit on a Washington fb forum would be the best source. It looks like Washington spending is "in the mix." Not a $20 million roster, but few probably are. Is the real issue that it's spending it poorly? I'm asking. Nobody ever asks the question. This "we're poor" talk seems unsubstantiated as far as I can tell. I also think it's a first cousin to "we're doing the right way" and goes back to a fan favorite pastime of moralizing failure and assuming the other guy is successful only because he's willing to cheat.
Would anyone here care if it turned out that last season was the product of sound (and lucky) spending?

On3 ranking has a column for "Average NIL". No idea where they're getting these data, but UW is about 30% of Oregon’s average.
It could be that UW spends more per player in the portal, if, indeed, their budget is about the same as Oregon’s.
-
If I had to guess I'd guess 81 percent of NIL hot talk is bullshit

Guapo is a good guy but he illustrates the point. Spending money 💰 is just one part but

I think there’s a lot of “all of the above” when talking about UW’s inability to sustain a championship level football program. I do think they are working with considerably less $$$ than the top-tier programs (hi ducks), but I also think there is plenty of $$$ available to the program if the people with the $$$ were convinced it wouldn’t be wasted due to the school having an administration that doesn’t value its football program.
-
Wasn't it like three years ago that UW was selling 401ks as their NIL because they wanted to be above board? I remember it was to the point that people were saying we were gonna lose recruits to the Coug because it was easier to actually get money there.
I'll listen to the hey there's nothing stopping you from UW spending more money hypothetically, sure, but you legit have a recruit publicly saying just insane shit like Phil Knight is gonna help him make a shoe? That's not replicable.

The biggest question is why the fuck are we wasting money on our shitty basketball program?
-
THIS.
Your post also made me think of this $45 million gift UW Law recently received: -
Because there is a mega donor for UW basketball and it's a sport that requires far less NIL in general
UW has the best basketball recruiting class in the B1G
-
It's their own made up valuation based on, get this, social media followers. No joke. Aside from it being a joke. It literally has nothing to do with actual NIL values.

What else do you expect them to say on a 12-0 run? Nobody tells the truth and the truth would definitely hurt team moral plus he’s your backup.

@TheHB Pay up motherfucker.

oops. poasting hard.
-
they think they know so much about Oregon but are completely clueless
-
My best friend is an Oregon. I'm allowed to talk about them.
-
That wasn't a comment on his dumb ass, that was my dumb ass poasting in the wrong thread.
-
They're all the wrong threads for you, DTD.
-
I stayed in their dorm for a week for football camp and played a 7 on 7 in Autzen for a championship against some scrubs that flew up on their own dime to get recruited there. Most of their fans couldn't even point that place out on a map.
