    Its pure comedy reading some of the apologies for Pool Boy. He was directly involved with the AD department when Ty was kept...he was appointed as "VP of External Affairs", which was basically working with the athletic department trying to get get govt money for the stadium (he also failed at that...). He apparently let a raging alcoholic run rampant in the athletic department for years (I've defended Sarknado in the past but I didn't realize how much of a trainwreck his personal life was). On the sports nobody cares about he's had a mess with women's crew, he couldn't keep our women's volleyball Wooden equivalent, etc., etc....

    And he needs a booster seat to see over the railing when sitting at the games.

    Good point. Pool boy gets shit on 11 months out of the year on this board - Failed in numerous areas like you mentioned above - but once there is a threat of the unknown if he is gone - half of these poasters backtrack and say he's not that bad. Fucking hilarious.

    I'm guessing what Tequila's referring to with Romar is the Seattle basketball politics. I admit it would be a tough move when guys like Will, Broy, Crawford, etc., are so influential in the local basketball scene and are all tight with Romar. It could get dicey. But hire a coach that fucking wins and that would take care of itself. I remember when Babs fired Bender, people were worried it was a bad move because you might lose Brandon Roy. Just hire a fucking good coach and kids will want to come here.

    As far as Woody, he is from that part of the country and if I were him I'd jump on it. But if Michael Young consulted his 3 wives and thinks Pool Boy is the best candidate for their job, he's a fucking moron and I wouldn't miss him one bit.

    But part of me worries about the libtards on upper campus including our dyke president. They'd probably hire Tawd Turner back if they could.

    Y'all are insane if you think a big time Texas school is going to hire Woody. Those good ol' boys are serious as a heart attack about winning. There are dozens of Buddy Gerety's at aTm and UT.

    They write big checks and want someone to wants to win more than breathing.

    Woody would get spit out in 6.9 seconds.

    Then why the fuck did Texas hire Steve Patterson?

    I'm interested in hearing the reasons for keeping Romar. I give a fuck about basketball but even from a distance, I can tell you Romar's not good.
    Starting with basketball, attendance was piss poor last year and has been so so this year. Add to that a very lackluster year for football attendance and what could be some lower initial renewal numbers.

    Add all of that up and you could be looking at a situation where there's a decent revenue shortfall for the UW to cover by finding ways to shave some expenses as the debt servicing doesn't go anywhere.

    As such, probably very difficult to assume that UW will be in the market of buying out a fairly lengthy and expensive contract like Romar's.

    How exactly did Romar get that expensive iron clad lifetime contract anyway?
