Jim Moore has lost a lot off his fastball. The fact that Wazzu can’t piggy back off of the 3-4 real West Coast football programs for money anymore and have been exposed as an average Mountain West program has broken his mind.
I have a younger friend that went to school with him that said he is / was a cool guy but now that the business is broken Jim is like a lost soul. I feel for the guy, must be tough to lose your cash flow and be covering the remnants of nothingness with no backup.
I agree the hate around here can be a bit much at times. But … I used to think Moore was a goofy super fan. His schtick was all in good fun. When the P12 dissolved he lost it though and it became personal and nasty between him and UW. We all know, USC ended the P12 the minute they bolted for the B10 and dragged little brother UCLA along with them kicking and screaming. The fact that Coogs and an educated Coog like Moore can’t wrap their minds around that is mind numbing. He deserves the vitriol.You guys hate everything. Not everyone, but how do some of you have a strong opinion on this article and Jim Moore?
It’s a Cuog trying to write a fun article. There is nothing wrong with it. Jim Moore is more successful than 90% of journalism grads. It’s a tough industry and he had a decent run. College football talking heads are supposed to be homers and sometimes delusional.
