A great man as well as a legendary football coach. This is a very sad day.
 
So it's official now? That's too bad that Kim had to sling his name through all this.

It really is a shame that James didn't have a statue when he was living.
 
Sucks. Great man in so many ways. Great Human Being in every way.

Prayers go out to Carol and family.
 
Thanks for an awesome childhood of Husky football culminating in me watching you hoist up a NC trophy when I was 16 years old.
 
Celebrate his life and his achievements... we were lucky to watch his career... if you believe in after life he is in a better place..his legacy will live on. He lived a full life and impacted others into his 80's....t's and p's for those closest to him.
 
My favorite UW/Don James memory is 92 Rose Bowl win for the natty. Went back to basic training the next morning and didn't learn that UW won the natty for a couple days.

I don't belief in afterlife and I still think he's in a better place than living with pancreatic cancer.

Ugh.

At the risk of being insensitive, I submit he's in a better place than living with the past 2 decades of Husky football.

Don't tell me the demise of WASHINGTON as he made didn't make him want to die in a fucking fire, especially the years from Tytanic-present.

 
Don James was 4-2 vs. Michigan as the Husky coach.

Yea I read that 3-5 and I was confused. I knew he beat them in the Rose Bowl twice and won both regular season meetings.
