take less (or more?) of whatever you’re on.
I agree with the general premise (UW needs to care more about winning) but The number of assumptions in here is both galling and irresponsible.
What if GA enjoys his role at Cal? Or maybe Todd Monken is a relentless asshole and hates Seattle? Or like Airwolf/DDY mentioned… Other coaches who we seemingly are interested in are hesitant because they don’t have relationships with Lake or UW.
Also, CP won the 2010 Fiesta Bowl with seniors who would’ve been the class of 2006 (his first non-transition)… Or are we going to retroactively say that isn’t a big game because it was against TCU? He smoked VA Tech and UGA in big games too with his own players.
Saying “He likes his role at Cal” or, “He hates Seattle and doesn’t have a relationship” are answers that would make sense for normal people in normal life. But this is college football and we need to be able to sell the shit about our program. There is a big difference between getting the best guy and the 4th best guy. We have a fuck load of money to throw around and an INCREDIBLE city with some of the best facilities in the country AND have a roster that is stacked with talent.
They have hesitations? MAKE them see why they need to come here. Do what needs to be done short of major felonies.
