The Standard For UW Football

Going back to 1960, every coach through 2000 fielded some bad ass teams that went toe to toe with the best in the country. Owens and James both won Conference and National Titles, Lambright pissed away a lot of talent, but still won some really big games (beat Ohio State and Miami in back to back games), and Rick beat a "generational" Miami along with winning a PAC Title and a Rose Bowl. We all know how far the program fell after that, to more than a decade of historic lows, but IMO, Peterman is close to restoring it. Competing against the best is in the program's DNA. It should be expected.Dennis_DeYoung said:

Feel like elite QB talent is a must, to create a scenario that has the Dawgs competing for a National Championship.
The whole fucking point of this thread you shit sack is that we are fucking WASHINGTON and we want our teams to look like that team in the video.
That team was made up of recruiting classes that were highly rated, but not #1 in the conference (#3 usually behind USC and UCLA, but top 15) and they had a great coach. That great coach was pretty mediocre without great recruiting. We need Joe Ngata and Gaard Memmelaar and god forbid we actually get black kids (NOT AFRICANS) to play on our team...
NO ONE FUCKING CARES ABOUT BROWNING. FUCK JAKE BROWNING. FUCK HIS FUCKING BETA SHRIVEL DICK PANTS SHITTING SOCKS SHITTING WEED SMOKING CALIFORNIA BULLSHIT.
Skinny is a fucking generational talent you dumb sack of monkey shit so why are we even talking about this shit?
THE WHOLE POONT OF THIS THREAD IS THAT WE CAN HAVE DOMINANT TEAMS. WE HAVE HAD THEM. WE CAN AGAIN.
IF YOU MAKE EXCUSES AS TO WHY WE CAN'T: YOU ARE THE FUCKING PROBLEM AND FUCK YOU GO TO DAWGMAN. -

Yes, Lambo was insanely bad. Our 1994 team beat fucking Miami on the road and Ohio State at home and then lost to fucking Oregon, Stanford and WSU. Jesus fucking Christ Lambo.
That team was Natty level, but we just gave out after the Oregon loss.
We always went toe-to-toe. We were never a team like we are now that got clown stomped by any talented teams. Sure, we took lumps from big time programs when we had shitty teams, but we gave them, too. -
LSU has to be pretty damn close to tier 1, I know they're in Mandel's "Kings" tier. 3 NC's, 5 unclaimed NC's, a Heisman winner, 25 bowel wins. If they're not tier 1 they're certainly not looking up at anyone in tier 2.Dennis_DeYoung said:

A damn good offseason discussion is simply "What is the SEC's #2 program?"dnc said:

LSU? Georgia? Auburn? Tennessee? Florida? -

Turns out you fucking limp dicks have forgotten that we don't look up to fucking Boise, Oregon or fucking Stanford.WeakarmCobra said:Living in the past huh?
If you don't want our teams to look like that: FUCK OFF.
If you make excuses for our teams to never look like that again: FUCK OFF.
If you think that can't happen again: FUCK OFF. -
So, LSU is not in any fucking way, shape, or form a Tier I.dnc said:

I’m so fucking sick of this shit.
LSU was shitty or middling for fucking 40 years before Saban.
They got a Natty with Saban and then a run-off Natty under Miles and haven’t done anything since. Before that they won the fucking SEC like twice in 30 years.
THEY ARE NOT TIER I.
Are they at the top of a second tier team? Sure.
Fucking morons out here are saying fucking Clemson and LSU are a tier I because that’s what’s happened recently. There is such a fucking moronic recency bias in people it’s stupid.
FROM 1960 TO 2000 LSU won the SEC 4 times.
A team wins its conference FOUR TIMES in FORTY YEARS and you idiots say they are tier one?!?
Alabama won the SEC 15 times in the same span. Jesus fucking Christ.
It’s fucking embrarrasing.
You know what they have? What Clemson has? What Auburn and UGA have? Good brands.
Don’t confuse a good brand with being Tier I.
Until Saban showed up LSU had one Natty.
In 1958. All their unclaimed Natties are prior to 1965 (and they have an irrelevant one in 2011).
If we’d have hired Saban for fucking 4 years we would have a better history than fucking LSU.
Fuck LSU. They are 13th in winning % all time among P5 programs and we are 17th.
Jesus fucking Christ.

I didn't say they're tier 1. I said they're top of tier 2. You agreed.Dennis_DeYoung said:

The rest of this is just ranting for rants sake. Which is fine, IWYLTD. -
Tier 1A programs are
USC, Texas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Alabama, Michigan, Ohio State, Notre Dame
Tier 1B:
Penn State, Florida State, Florida, Miami -
Tier 2 is
P12: UCLA and UW
Big XII: ?? Great conference guys
SEC: Tennessee, UGA, LSU, Auburn, A&M
B1G: Michigan St.
ACC: Pitt is probably almost out of it now, but... -
And I would never rank Clemson Tier 1.They're only up because of Dabo, if (once) he leaves for Bama they'll be back down.
I think of the tiers differently than accomplishments, I think of them in terms of a) "what caliber of a coach does it take to win here" and b) if we find a great coach how likely are we to lose him to another school?
Tier 2 schools need great coaches to win but can keep them if they actually do (DJ at UW, Dabo at Clemson).
Tier 1 schools can win with a good but not great coach (Texas with Mack Brown and even classifying him as good is generous, Florida State with Jimbo).
