Apologies if someone already posted about this, but could be a little extra content for Derek's next great Husky novel…
In CBS' post-game coverage, Neuheisel was talking about celebrations after Apple Cup victories.
He brought up a story where a bunch of boosters and Upper Campus types were at his house after an Apple Cup win. He said he'd been pushing for a $2 million renovation/facility without much luck.
People start jumping in the lake to celebrate the win, and Dempsey says to Barbara Hedges "If you jump in the lake I'll give you the $2 million for the new facility."
She refused to do it, on account of her hair getting messed up. A fitting story for the disaster that was the Hedges/Turner eras of our Athletic Department.
Might have a couple details wrong but that's more or less the story. Also pretty damn funny that you can tell how much Neuheisel still hates her that he'd whip out that story and tell it on national TV.
 
That story is everything wrong with the University of Washington from 2001 to 2013.

It's actually a miracle UW recovered as there is an alternate universe where we are UVA.

Rick told this story during his weekly segments with Softy recently, probably this past week.
 
I was drunk AF at that point…..didn’t realize he was talking about Babs
 
The story Ernst told about Babs requiring every head coach to go around the room and say one positive thing their program did that week, and Rick saying "we didn't have any new violations" still makes me chuckle. Both of them are who they are.
 
He told this story with Mitch on Monday, Chuck Powell on Wednesday I think then softy on Thursday before capping it off Saturday night. Honestly bored of that story now

He's told a less detailed version of it on Full Ride with Chris Childers on Sirius.
My favorite sports show, by far. Rick is gold.

Kind of like Adam Carolla telling his Gavin Newsom story
 
Not to ruin a good story with facts but I could have sworn he said it was his (Ricks) wife he asked to jump in the lake
