Totally agree on both counts. There are two types of coaches, athletics directors, presidents and board of Regents....

One which celebrates the achievements of the entire college team sports programs and can tell you how well the intermural program is going and gives out gold stars for participation and academic achievement in between cub scout meetings; and the other which thirsts for a dominant program and does whatever it takes through sheer willpower, ethic and intention to be a freaking winner in the money producing programs.

True leadership coaches and AD's [leaders] make it their life's blood to produce a winner, they are constantly evaluating, understand what they are witnessing and they do not let rose colored glasses color their understanding of the truth of the trajectory of the programs they are managing.

They are decisive when it counts, they have the clout, charisma and financial backing to make it happen and they are ahead of the curve to the point that it all looks seamless. Case closed Sherlock, there is no mystery here.

I mean sure, but I don't think a new AD will change much. We are not a school that is is serious about sports, and we don't have a Phil Knight that demands sports be taken seriously. Its hard for me to say that getting rid of Cohen will solve that problem.

We are fundamentally broken, and content with being an above average program that never really does anything.
 
Just think of how proud we’ll be in 2026 when Jimmy is a defensive analyst for Sark at Texas and then in 2032 when Jimmy gets a head coach position at a top 15 program.

Let’s face it. UW either only hires inexperience, incapable coaches or retreads because they’ll do just enough to keep football in position to have positive cash flow.

@FireCohen was first and right.

WSU has made better hires with far less resources than UW. Cohen needs to go, first.

Who is going to fire her?

Pete for AD?

Again, how? Do you think President Ana Marie Caus is going to fire a woman AD that she hired?

Maybe she can move the fuck on, take Larry Scott’s place
 
I see Jen Cohen as similar to one of those women who can't stop talking about how much of a Seahawks fan they are.

They always dress up for "blue Friday" at the office
They have 10 different colors of Russell Wilson jerseys
They put Seahawks shit all over their car
They have a 12 flag on their house
They do their family photos in Seahawks gear
They have Seahawks parties at their house every GameDay and advertise them throughout the week

When the game is actually on, though, they sit in the other room and talk to their friends about clothing or celebrities or any other gossip... popping in a couple times to ask how the game is going.

Terrible take.

This is key. What is success to Ana Mari Cauce in athletics? I find it hard to believe that the current dumpster fire would be deemed unacceptable at her level, unfortunately.

Rolo does intrigue me. I think he'll be fine but he's not in Kansas (hawaii or nevada) anymore.

 
Dilbert principle...Jen will get promoted to Pac12 commissioner and whatever politically correct AD replacement will right the ship in a conference that is falling to pieces.

The fact Jen wasn’t even smart enough to get into UW should have been a pretty good indicator that she might not be a crack CEO of the department...
 
Did I get whooshed here? Fire Jimmy and Jen? Though a stellar idea - a woman and a person of color ain't getting fired any time soon short of absolute scandal and pics of having sex with infants.

That's simply the tims we live in, folks. 7-5, 6-6 is good enuff.

Stating the obvious. Don't twist.

 
Jimmy’s in way over his head and frankly he’s facing way too many headwinds at this point to reasonably expect to turn things around ... and that’d be true even if he knew what he was doing

That said, the most pressing need is for Jen to be removed as AD

Reality is that Jen’s far too dangerous and irresponsible to make the next hire (and that’s true in a number of sports)

He won the P12 North in his first season as a HC with a new OC and new QB and 3 out of 5 new starters on the OL.

What exactly are you saying needs to be turned around[/i]?

Sure it would have been nice if Covid didn't prevent us from playing Oregon and playing in the Pac12 championship game but that is above his pay grade.

It's a bit early to predicting an off season 0 and 12.
