Christian; Just wanted to congratulate you on the success of your business endeavor. I read everything “Husky “ and your content and frequency are clearly the best. I hope the numbers are working for you! Signed “A Dawg in Lake Oswego “
After the WSU game, I’m thinking this team is closer to 6 wins than 9 wins, the result is probably somewhere in between. Ready to see how this team improves week to week. That’s all we really can ask.
While I was extremely bummed that KDB left, I watched a Dawgman podcast where they said, if Pat Chun Or Jen Cohen were here, they was no way they would have left KDB walk out. I think the perfect storm hit us with that incompetent AD dannen in place. I looked at some history here and I could see 3 examples which makes UW a place for legendary “former head coaches”.
1. Darrell Royal, former UW head coach - goes to Texas and becomes a legend (stadium named after him).
2. Sark - he was good for UW, bounces and finally lands at Texas, will probably win a title.
3. KDB - I would bet a lot of money he wins a title at Alabama
UW needs to find its own Kirby Smart - someone we know that will never leave no matter what.
Personally I think despite a healthy resume, Fisch’s decision making at times is suspect. Randomly subbing out a 5th year starter mid series when he’s rolling is a distinct eyebrow raiser. And it didn’t pass the smell test when he initially took responsibility for a bad call, thus losing the game, he later blamed player execution. Come on man! Own it!
I feel underwhelmed, disappointed and lackimg confidence. It sucks. I hope we don't end up sucking consistently. Makes me miss KDB even though I hate him. He jumped a sinking ship- joke is on us with lemon car salesman/The Rainmaker at the helm now.
I also miss KDB and I think that is because within we know that we had an all-timer who was going to win and win BIG for a long time here (no danger of going back to his Alma mater).
And he just slipped away due to crazy timing of Nick Saban retiring at a time when UW had the biggest spotlight. If Saban retired a year early, don’t think they would have called KDB even after a 11-2 season (not much national spotlight).
This is why I have Kirby as an example. No one called Kirby to replace Saban coz they knew he was not leaving Georgia.
UW needs to find its own Kirby and realize you need to be in the top tier to win titles. Otherwise, they will go to the CFP frequently and get their ass-kicked and no titles.

Join me in hoping for a meager 4 wins and going all in on the hope of the future
what the hell are you talking about?
If your expectations are low, they can’t disappoint.
Around January 14th I told myself that the 2024 season was a wash, and I was hoping for a strong 2025.
4 wins and I’m happy. Join me, brother
Wow that is is horribly depressing, but since Jedd essentially cost us a W, maybe he doesn't actually care about "W" for win.

Count me as surprised that our O line pass blocking is better than run blocking.
Wonder what the balance (calling plays for specific players vs in the flow of the game) is regarding Hunter?

Your lows are pretty extreme.
