DeBoer and Penix were together at Indiana and Penix had his best season prior to Washington with DeBoer. Penix then only one other offer when he went into the portal (UCF or USF, can't remember).
In contrast, Oregon has a 6 year QB on his 3rd team getting paid $1.5 million, your #1, #2, and # 3 WR were bought from other programs, at least 2 of 5 starting OL came from elsewhere, Oregon bought 3 of 4 starting DL from other programs, and your entire secondary was bought (two starting corners, two starting safeties, and the nickel back). So yeah, Phil Knight has assembled a very inorganic, mostly mercenary team in college where 14 out of 22 starters were bought from other schools.
Anyway, if Oregon fans just owned it instead of pretending like this team was 4 or 5 years in the making without money being the key factor, it would make them much more tolerable.
I'm well aware of the reality of the situation. You remain an excuse making doog. You're the epitome of someone too dumb to know they're dumb. UW 100% has the "resources" to build an "inorganic" super team, and refuses. Your anger is misplaced, like I said, as you are doog.
Nice personal insults and Ad Hominem attacks. You are on a website called Hardcore Husky getting upset because a non-Oregon fan is calling a duck a duck.
And no, UW does not have the $20 to $30 million that Phil Knight is pumping into Oregon every year…they aren't even close. At best they have half of that. At least one report has said that Phil Knight personally approves of each NIL deal because it's all his money. The dude is trying to buy a National Championship before he kicks the can. It doesn't get faker than that.
This sport has gotten so strange yet somehow become a model of unrestricted capitalism to be studied. Unrestricted capitalism with no salary cap.
I’ve always hoped to see a Richard Branson type buy an MLB team and spent 2 or 3 years buying the best player at each position and fielding a billion dollar all star team that is coached by AI. It will either become the greatest sports dynasty in history or forgotten failed Bio-dome level social experiment.
Have to agree with the duck on this one. If UW wanted to be a major player, it could. And that is college football today. You are either a major player ($$$) or you aren't.
In its present form, NIL can't be funded by Universities. Phil Knight is putting $25-$30 million into NIL and every other school except for maybe Ohio State does not have a mega booster like that. Do you think it it's a coincidence that portal guys and recruits are flocking to Eugene like never before for any other reason?
Ask yourself why UW doesn't have large donors to compete with the likes of Phil Knight, when there is as much money in the Seattle metro area as any place in the country.
It's a lot of shit now you need to pay for high school recruits, portal recruits, paying the TBS sites to bump your guys, keeping your own guys from portalling, ~$10 million a year for a head coach, then a shit load for good assistants, a bunch of analysts, sponsored content like PFF hyping your players, boosting your social media, jerseys and swag and shit, facilities, creative to create your own good content and social media.
In the talent acquisition you also need to be able to scout well. There's programs like A&M and USC and now apparently UW basketball, who spend money but it doesnt' work out as well as they hope.

I see 14-1 shirts in the future somewhere in Yemen for the zeros. FTGs
fuck off Jodie
UW did it much more organically though so it matters more and means more.
Organically. With a mercenary coach and QB.

What data do you have to substantiate anything? Oh, none?
Glad we don't face him!!
This article says UW spent $6 million:
This article says Oregon spent $23 million, nearly 400% more:

Get back on your meds @dtd this is gonna be a stressful month for you
Why not both?

UW has chosen its path.

Can't expect to compete with Eugene
Just can't
to be fair, we? don’t play until 1/1.
I’ll take my meds on the stroke (lulz) of midnight. After getting piss drunk of course.
