Washington Defense a National Joke

Mike Cox fired because of it.

“I want to thank Nick Holt, Mike Cox, and Jeff Mills for their hard work and dedication throughout the last three years,” Sarkisian said in the statement. “They were instrumental in the leadership and development of countless young men, and they have left our program in a better place.”

Many would disagree, at least in terms of football numbers. Including the bowl game, the Huskies surrendered a record-worst 453.3 yards per game.

Your use of font size and bold type most certainly deliver an urgent, poignant message concerning the shortcomings of this hire.  I find the mountains of evidence you have uncovered to be damning to the Cox hire.  Absent of choices I am forced to believe what you say about this coaching hire.  You are the "captain of my soul" in terms of thoughts related to said coaching hire and others. 


Yeah, my evidence was a national ranking over the course of a season.  Yours was dismissing one game against Baylor.

How could a hire be any worse than Mike Cox? I mean, I know people are saying it's not bad, and even if that's true, how could it be worse?

one season = mountains of evidence.  

I find it interesting John L. Smith kept him around for 17 years as he climbed the coaching ladder from Idaho to Utah State to Louisville to Michigan State.  Say what you want about whether he had success or not at Michigan State because a lot of coaches never make that kind of climb.  Of course most of those successful coaches don't keep bad coaches around very long.  

but I'm certainly sold on that one season at Washington.  Especially with no knowledge of injuries or personnel situations.  I will forever relinquish my opinions moving forward to you on all such matters.  You have cut through the muddy waters of decision-making in this profession and supplied me with clarity.

Academics is a stupid word.

Academic schools are synonymous for being rich, powerful and exclusive, three things Kansas State is not.

So when people throw the word "academics" around, that's really what they are referencing.

After years of quenching the thirsts of his friends and neighbors in the Northeast Kansas town of Atchison where he grew up, Grandpa Tanner decided to come to the big city and settled in Johnson County.


He envisioned a bar and grill where the service was always friendly, the food was tasty, the beer ice cold, and you could find Grandpa himself behind the bar chatting with the guests and quenching thirsts.

The first Tanner's opened on 87th Street in Lenexa, Kan., in 1985, with Grandpa Tanner and his friends building it from the ground up. From the very beginning, Tanner's Bar and Grill in Lenexa was a place where Johnson Countians from near and far traveled for an after-work drink and dinner, to watch the local boys earn another victory on TV, and to relax in a friendly atmosphere.


As you might expect, word traveled fast. Grandpa Tanner was serving up tasty food, and Tanner's Bar and Grill was THE place to hang out and watch the big games on the big screens. It wasn't long before people in other parts of the city wanted Grandpa Tanner's famous Chicken Lips©, Boogas©, and steak specials closer to their homes, too.

So Grandpa Tanner and friends opened up a new location at 119th Street (right off 69 highway) a few years later.

Not to leave out his friendly Missouri neighbors who had come across State Line so many times to visit the Kansas locations, Grandpa Tanner set out to provide even more refreshment to the Show-Me side of the big city, adding two more Bar and Grills: one in historic Waldo at 74th Terrace and Broadway, and a location downtown on 10th Street and Broadway.


Now with four locations around town, Grandpa Tanner was a busy man, but he made sure he visited all the locations as much as possible to make sure the Chicken Lips©, the Boogas©, and the beer met his satisfaction. Grandpa Tanner was pleased when he saw all the people coming to all the locations to hang out with their neighbors and friends.

Never one for idle hands, Grandpa Tanner kept on building Tanner's Bar and Grills, trying to keep up with the demands of his customers. He added locations in Lee's Summit and Blue Springs .

Grandpa Tanner was a busy man. But, he was a happy man. His dream of being "The Friendly Purveyors of Good Times, Fine Food and The Pause That Refreshes" had become a reality. Grandpa Tanner had come to the big city and done well.

In 2003, Grandpa Tanner decided to expand once again. Johnson County continues to build south with new businesses and new homes, and Grandpa Tanner wanted to make sure the newcomers to the area had a place to go for refreshment. A new location at 143rd and Metcalf opened. With more televisions than any other Tanner's location, 143rd and Metcalf quickly became the place to watch KU football and basketball, the Chiefs, and every other game on television.

Other towns are seeing how the good the great people of Kansas City have it, and are demanding a Tanner's of their own. A New location opened in the fall of 2003 in Omaha, Neb. Nebraska, Creighton and UNO fans can be found celebrating their teams victories at the location in Omaha.

Grandpa Tanner doesn't make it around to all the locations as often as he would like. Driving around the big city all the time is a big task. But he still likes to stop in one of the Tanner's location every single day of the week, just to make sure everything is up to his high standards.

The next time you visit Tanner's Bar and Grill, take a peek behind the bar. You just might see Grandpa Tanner, serving up drinks and chatting with the customers, just as he's done for more than 20 years.

Overall this must be a decent hire. I was expecting a much larger meltdown today. It is noted that some of you have not disappointed.

It's really not that Mike Cox or Tom Hayes are awful, it's just awful that they are the best we could do.

Due to yet another emphatic and impenetrable reply I'm forced to ask how may I serve you, sir?  One thing I wasn't aware of prior to reading in this thread is that the LBs are solely responsible for the other 8 positions on the defense and the LB coach responsible for more than just his LB duties.  I stand corrected and even in doing so I am standing as strong as a wet noodle in high gusting winds.  The winds of 909.

no mas.  I am withered and worn.  broken down.  battered.  bruised.  succumbed with tail between my legs.  I cannot compete on with this scale of font.  the words of a sportswriter are not to my musings and especially when those words are in 8" letters.
