Clueless. Especially as fan who had its program gobbled up by a rival that has been pouring $ into football for over a decade.Fuck the money. You can only put so many juice bars in the locker room. Everybody in the Pac has enough money to be nationally successful ( maybe not the cougs). Just win. Beat the shit out of someone. Why should I care about the big or sec revenue streams? Why should I care about any other team in the Pacs? Washington has more than enough to win a championship.
Motherfucking do it.
More money is a big deal. It matters.
You missed the point. Money matters, but once you cross a certain threshold the difference between team a and team b is inconsequential beyond a number in the university's bank account. You could give UW 500 million today and it wouldn't change the stadium already built.
I see it identical to the being smart enough theory. If a job requires someone to have a 130 IQ, it doesn't matter if they are at 135 or 160. Once you cross the line you're equally capable.
The Pac, particularly Washington, is across the line. Win or GTFO.
