Still laughing at Cameron Dollar. Doogliest of doogman posts. Christ.

I think Dollar was listed out of who UW "could" hire. Not who Chavez thinks they should.Gladstone said:Still laughing at Cameron Dollar. Doogliest of doogman posts. Christ.

It's not terrible, but we are a football school. UW football has an incredible stadium, a supporting fan base, and tradition. There was luck involved with Petersen too. He was looking to leave Boise State and has lived on the West Coast his entire life.RomarFuckedJenC said:I think this job is more desirable than you are giving credit for. Look at the number of high profiled basketball players that come out of the northwest. At this point I would take almost anyone than romar but to act like certain coaches wouldn't have interest from other schools makes zero sense. If they truly don't have interests fine but the reason listed don't make sense other than Marshall making 3.1 mill. Also in your salary doesn't include bonuses and other pay from deals with whoever there associated with like Nike or adidas. This is pretty major for some coaches.
Romar ranks about 30th without other pay and bonuses a new coach would probably get paid in the top 20 so Archie would get a significant pay raise that would not balance out with cost of living.
Few is pretty rare but he has a winning program in spokane which is a shithole(I live here) with terrible local basketball talent. Any quality coach can go to uw with the resources and be very successful.
The basketball program has none of those things. The local talent and money (if they even can/will pay top dollar) is all UW has to offer. -
You have to include Randy Bennett in the list of guys you have to talk to at least to see if he is ready to make the jump ... he's really the most comparable coach on the West Coast to Pete's situation

Sounds like a perfect fitGladstone said:Still laughing at Cameron Dollar. Doogliest of doogman posts. Christ.

I understand it's difficult to read. especially when i go @Tequilla long, but christ. Dollar would be a TERRIBLE hire based on track record. Bigly terrible! That being said, to deny that tits won't consider him is insane. He's a UW guy who's been in the area and has college experience and will coach for cheap. All of the requirements many people believe will happen. My list is based on possible hires, not what the i dream of Jeanie list looks like.PurpleThrobber said:Jesus Christ - you put Cameron Dollar on that list? Are you fucking kidding?
Just hire Jerome Collins if you want to do stupid shit.
At least you admit it's a lazy hire.
I don't want 90% of the list i wrote, but it's a much more realistic view of who is available and may actually sign up for the job. UW isn't paying almost 2M for romar for 2 more years plus paying 3-4 million a year. It isn't happening. So the 1-2 million range is realistic.
My picks of realistic coaches are rice and musselman. Yes there could be a dark horse but that's why they are a dark horse. Bennett is also a great option and I should have included him in the possible list. I'd still take rice or musselman over him, but still should be there.
As @RoadDawg55 put it, we? are a football school, so yes this job is not going to be an obvious jump to greatness. Romar for all his faults has brought a few top guys in and it's not based on program trajectory(ask markelle).

Who's yours? Who's possibly coming to UW? It's obviously a sarcastic bored, but who is running to this program yoda? Love to see itGladstone said:Unfuckingbelievably dumb list. Sorry.

That's great we are a football school but that doesnt really matter. The talent that comes out of the Seattle area is ridiculous. It would not be that tough to turn this program around and contend for the Pac 12. Especially with how much turnover college basketball has in general.FreeChavez said:

Win and the place is full lose for 6 seasons and no one cares. Pretty simple. -
The Seattle talent is highly overrated. The only 5 star recruit Seattle has put out in years is Porter and he only moved here for his senior year because Romar hired his dad. The Seattle talent base is solid but it got this amazing rep because there were about 5 years where it put out ridiculous talent, which happened to coincide with the years where UW football sucked and hoops was bearable so people gave a shit. But the talent hasn't been "ridiculous" for quite some time.RomarFuckedJenC said:

The only legit 5 star recruit the state has produced since Wroten is Zach Levine, and he was a like a low 20's guy nationally. The last top 10 national recruit the state produced was Abdul Gaddy. The last top 10 national recruit the state produced that was actually worth a damn was Spencer Hawes.
Spencer Hawes is in his 10th season in the NBA.
Seattle area talent is good. But it's not enough of itself to draw a good coach. It's going to take a commitment to hoops and a shit ton of money. Smart money says we'll be hiring someone who sucks. -
