Jennifer Cohen said it is hard getting good OOC teams to agree to come to UW?

A week or so back, Jennifer Cohen said it is hard to get good OOC teams to come to UW, because those teams view it as a wasted trip in terms of recruiting -- they'd rather go play a team in an area where they have a shot at attracting recruits.

Looking at some of our OOC opponents over the last 30 years: Nebraska, LSU, Notre Dame, Miami, Michigan State, BYU, etc...

Why could we got those teams then, but can't now? Is Jenn just making excuses?

    It'll probably be easier to schedule games when the rest of the country realizes they can no longer cherry pick the best players from the state with a phone call

    Weird she would make excuses after landing Auburn. That's pretty top shelf. I want to motorboat that chunky bitch.

    the kickoff games are invitational. she didn't really do much, all she did was ask peterman if he wants to accept the invitation

    You guys act like I'm a fucking crazy for saying we should play games in territory we recruit in.

    Guess what - I didn't invent that idea.

    It's pretty fucking standard. Otherwise, what's the benefit?

    Why would UGA want to schedule a potential road loss with UW if they fill up their stadium fine without those kinds of games?

    Is it really that hard to understand?

    It goes back to my question. Why were we able to get home games with Nebraska, LSU, Notre Dame, Miami, Michigan State, Ohio State, Michigan, etc... if it is so hard (according to Cohen) to get teams to come play here?

    What were the prior ADs doing that she isn't doing?

    I thought sloppy tits moved a game to accommodate the Auburn date.

    Your point is still kind of valid but I think she actually had to do more than check with her boss.

    my honest guess is that Sark and Woody manufactured this thing (water is wet), but it's simply going to take Cohen a bit of time to unwind it, so she's simply throwing little indirect dares into the wind while she works with Pete to figure out how badly we really want Oklahoma type competition coming up here.

    When you have Ty and Gilby schools line up to play you. Pool Boy dumbed it down for Sark to get 7 wins.

    UW can get home homes with anyone because of the size of the stadium.

    But the tuff or non tuff non con schedules of the past have nothing to do with going 11-1. That comes from not going 5-4 in the league every year.

    Colorado didn't kill us in 90, UCLA did. LRR

    Woodward gave it up easier.

    From what I'm hearing Jen has yet to show anyone but Peterman her big sloppy tits.

    I suspect sloppy Jen hasn't seen hard in a while, much less come.
