Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Why hate on Nussmeier?

If Mora and Petersen say no, what is wrong with Nussmeier? Pretty typical resume to be a head coach.

    First choice is a proven HC. If none available you look to highly regarded coordinators.

    Nussmeier seems like a good back up plan.

    Fuck hiring an experiment. This is a good/great job. He don't have to stoop to hiring a learning on the job assistant.

    There are always choices if you have something to offer....UW does.

    So Mora and Peterson are the only proven HCs?

    if Nuss is a serious candidate Sark really did pull a fast one on Woody, if we already had someone wrapped up ahead of time (ie it's announced in the next 24 hours) then woody did his fucking job

    Mid major coaches are not proven.

    Nussmeier should be a guy we talk to IF we get turned down by about 16 head coaches (which shouldn't happen if we don't go all cheap). Get a proven Head Coach. This is WASHINGTON. Hell, WSU doesn't even hire guys that do not have head coaching experience

    no coordinators...I don't think he'd ruin the program but why take a chance?

    No. Absolutely nothing.

    Good Christ. Have you learned nothing?

    If those are our only options, Poolboy should be fired on the spot.

    But yes, I'd take a proven mid major coach over a never been coach.

    If WSU can get a proven fucking coach, what the fuck is up with the idiocy?

    Agreed, but that was the poont. Aubs said first choice is a proven hc, if none available you go coordinator. He also said if no Mora or Peterson go coordinator. So to him, only two proven hcs are Mora and Peterson.

    Don James was mid major. Knowing how to manage is knowing how to manage.

    How many successful BCS coaches want to leave their current job?

    Your choices are more limited than some of you think.

    I know you don't think Peterson is proven. I just want it to be clear to Auburn and anyone else that he isn't.

    Successful BCS coaches also do not mind considerable raises, soft schedules, beautiful new stadiums, and fan bases/administrations with relatively low expectations...

    Are you fucking kidding me Aubs? Nuss would be an epic case of rolling over and pissing on ourselves. Sarkisian was a bad choice coming off of the Ty era. Hiring Nuss now would be a failure on a completely different level coming off of a period of relative success with a solid roster, and a new stadium. This was a decent opportunity for a coach in 2008, but it should be a premier job now. It's the AD's job to make it too good to pass up and get the best possible, surest possible thing not a guy who would amount to a roll of the dice.

    This all skips over the fact that Nuss has virtually zero recruiting pull out here right now and no coaching tree to lean on. UW can't afford a complete flop with the 2014 signing class. A mediocre hire like him would assure that and make it an uphill battle to get back in it for 2015.

    No...no fucking Nuss, please. Jesus I'm fucking nervous it's going to be him.

    Couldn't agree more. Next to USC, the UW job is arguably the best on the West Coast right now. The time is right for aiming high again, screw going after another assistant coach.

    They're a lot more abundant than you think.

    Fuck Aubs, you pretend like you're the most old school UW arrogance poaster on this damn site but when the chips are actually down you think Mora is the only proven BCS HC we have a shot at?

    I miss AUBURNDAWG, dammit.

    One of my idiot Doog friends said USC, Oregon, Stanford, ASU and UCLA are all way ahead of UW for best jobs.

    This was after I said Sark should go when he stated "Who would you hire?". I was like money talks and bullshit walks.
