Do you think this just happens by accident?

If Kansas can be a perennial basketball powerhouse and Nebraska can be a football power for 50 years, there is no reason whatsoever that UW/Seattle can't do the same in football or basketball. It takes finding the right leader, which isn't easy, and organizational commitment. Your above post is an example of voluntarily lowered expectations of the possible.

By the KU/Nub measure there's little reason most teams can't, therefore most teams can't.

Ohio state cared when UW didn’t. I think Columbus only having a shitty hockey team helps. I’d also like to wonder how many Free Palestine and George Floyd rallies happen there or even are allowed but I’ll take it to the tug.

I think Organizational commitment is the number one factor. The only thing I consistently agree with Kimmy about is how much the Ty hire and continued retainment of him turned off a lot of boosters and big fans. I currently coach with a guy who’s grandfather and father gave up after 2008 and had season tickets for 30 years

Clearly Don James wasn’t the right leader then, because he never had the year after year sustained success of 1-2 loss seasons referenced in the OP. The hypotheticals you guys are dealing in represent something that we’ve never had at UW, even in the best of times. What are the odds that the requisite combination of university leadership, money, and the best coach in the land are going to come together for a 20 year run of 1-2 loss seasons- i.e., to become “Ohio State”? Nevermind, that to become Ohio State you have to displace them as the top program in your conference.

Its a new game and a new day. And when James did build a machine UW tore it down. Same with Rick. Petersen and DeBoer got the fuck out of town
By all means give them the cover they want, write the check and shut up. The motto

Don James was poised to go to four, five or six Rose Bowls in a row, assuming that his health held up to continue coaching.

Sometimes I wonder why I fell in love with a program that wasn’t Ohio State.
