SEATTLE – University of Washington Director of Athletics Jen Cohen announced today that Head Football Coach Jimmy Lake has been relieved of his duties, effective immediately. The University will honor the terms of his contract. Assistant Coach Bob Gregory will serve as the Interim Head Coach for the remainder of the season.

"Making a head coaching change in any sport is difficult, recognizing that the decision impacts coaches, staff, student-athletes and their families," said Cohen. "However, as the steward of UW Athletics, I must always act in the best interests of our student-athletes, our department and our university. No one wanted Jimmy to succeed more than I when I hired him in 2019, but ultimately, this change is necessary for a variety of reasons, both on the field and off. I am grateful for Jimmy's service to Washington, and we wish him the very best of luck moving forward."

A national search for a new head coach will begin immediately.

Lake completes his tenure at UW with an overall record of 7-6.

7-6, sounds like he fit the mold at UW. Bummer he was so unhinged and shit.

Next man up!
 
They have to have someone lined up. It better be Stoops. It would actually make sense to be Stoops given the timing, or else they would fire Jimmy after the season...

Petersen as interim, then a half-hearted search that ends with Jen saying 'Justin Wilcox has been on my radar...'

0 chance we hire Wilcox as head coach. No one is going to be excited about that, especially the boosters.

You’re dialed in there

We may not hire Wilcox

But you are clueless if you don’t think Wilcox is being discussed
