Got this too, the car and song questions were retarded, but the rest are mostly good.

Yeah, went with Tequila, and then I didn’t know.. Shelby mustang?UWhuskytskeet said:Got this too, the car and song questions were retarded, but the rest are mostly good.

I don’t think it hurts. They need to keep hearing from the real fans that want our traditional uniforms back. This is something that Coker, DDY and many of us have expressed on twitter to UW and I even went so far to call Carter Henderson and convey to him how we need to bring our brand back. I don’t know if it helped but at least I’ve done all I can to communicate my distaste for the recent uniforms/branding and how it needs to change under Adidas.

This survey was shit. I couldn't even write-in for half of the answers. Instead, you're forced to choose some fluff bullshit answer. The athletic department has a branding issue and the answers listed in the survey emphasize that fact.

I took it about ten times. Macklemore, lots of chrome, emphasize academics and inclusion, Teslas, and be innovative like Oregon. Your welcum

Call Carter Henderson and give him your thoughts. They need to hear it. His direct line is 206 685 8879.Sources said:This survey was shit. I couldn't even write-in for half of the answers.

This is embarrassing.

23. What is one thing Adidas could do to make UW the only choice for recruits?
If only my alma mater could give some advice on this one. They just really wouldn't know though. What a shame. -

Classic Seattle shit right here. Did krisvashon write the survey? -
So I did GnR Paradise City, only because I know Duff is a big UW fan and the bass part in the song is pretty fucking awesome. Car I went with a Chevy Suburban. It's big, traditional and can be fancy but elicits hard work, and blue collar football.

Car is an Aston Martin DB11 because it's built for old, rich white people, but also is Nebraska classy and yet also has evolved for the needs of modern society.

I put Purple Prius.
-
I went with Maserati.

“Posse on Broadway.”
64 Impala. -

If for the music question you didn't put down the University of Washington marching band I hope you kill yourself today.

UW needs to stop marketing to people that are never really going to give a shit about sports anyways. The same people that will cheer UW for hosting the special Olympics on twitter and applaud us in the media for being "a beacon of inclusivity" are never going to bother buying tickets to actually WATCH those same sports they want highlighted.
It's the same bullshit with the PAC 12 Channels. Oh great, 3 hours of Women's collegiate soccer. I'm sure that the entire gender studies alumni network bought subscriptions to SlingTV just to be able to watch this.

That reaked of.

I couldn't finish this cheese dick survey without wanting to kick my own ass. Man that was gay, and not in a NTTAWWT way.

Someone(hopefully Jen) needs to make uppercampus realize that revenue sports butter everyone's bread.
You can't magically make non-revenue sports generate $65 million by creating "supply".
As someone that played a non-revenue sport I'd still rather see them invest 10 to 1 in revenue sports because it simply grows the pie for the rest of us and it's not like all facilities are mutually exclusive. I sure liked having the UW football practice field to practice on and when I broke my ankle it was pretty nice that I could see a top physician and get all my treatment done right there on campus in an onsite facility.
Jen seems to get this on some level but the rest of the administration needs to catch up and our fucking marketing department needs to realize you can market sports as just sports and still market the school as a top level public university. They aren't mutually exclusive concepts. -
I found most of the questions and answers they provided to be lacking and leading. It’s great that they wanted input from alumni/fans but at least ask the questions we want asked and not all the Todd Turner student athlete experience bullshit.
Only true revelevant question was the last write in. Of course I said James-era uniforms: that is the UW’s brand. Just embrace it. -
The questions were asked in a manner where you had a directional outcome that you wanted/expected and then framed those questions in a manner to ensure the desired outcome. Many of the questions honestly deserve no answer.MammaJamma said:I found most of the questions and answers they provided to be lacking and leading.

That's one tradition that needs to die. Marching bands are lame. We don't need one just because there has always been one.HuskyJW said:If for the music question you didn't put down the University of Washington marching band I hope you kill yourself today.

Brad McDavid is lame ... the band is not lame

A-fucking-men. Probably the biggest marketing tool of any university is its athletic program. I remember reading when Butler University made it to the Final Four in basketball several years ago, their applications for enrollment jumped 40%! This Washington Post article also estimates that the school generated about one BILLION dollars of FREE PUB! from the tournament coverage.UW_Doog_Bot said:Someone(hopefully Jen) needs to make uppercampus realize that revenue sports butter everyone's bread.

It’s a symbiotic relationship if the AD & upper campus play nice with one another. Having a strong academic reputation can sometimes be the deciding factor for some football/basketball recruits.
