No way USC beats Oregon.

An 87 percent FT shooter misses. A 30 percent 3pt shooter makes.

Ducks stole that game. Pritchard is a revelation.

Great show.

UCLA's adj defense now ranks 77th on kenpom, a testament to what a great coach Alford is. That shit aint gonna get it done in March.

They're a good team, but I have trouble seeing them going deep. Every good team they face puts up a lot of points. Texas aTm went off on them too and KY put up 90+. In a tourney setting, you just can't be weak like that.

That loss is amazing dirtbags.......Romar may be an excellent recruiter and a great guy but he really under-performs as a Coach! Amazing loss and waste of talent.....can you imagine had we gotten Fultz? Wow.

Well I don't see UW hiring anyone much better. This is why I think they've stuck with him for so long.

I watched the last 8 minutes of the UW-WSU game last night and it was about as bad of basketball as I've seen in a while.

Not a good weekend for UW fans that's for sure.

Lol, I think a lot of us feel that way.....would be an interesting poll to see what the ages of the board members really are.....could be anonymous or not. I don't know why but I always assume board members are younger than they actually are.....

I'm pretty sure this board is older than everyone thinks. A lot of us are from the rivals board and had been lurking or posting there for 5-10 even 12 years.

He's like Lavin: really nice guy, always gets top talent, very rarely has teams that contend for Pac titles.

Good for him. That's B.S.

I think they might be able to do better. UW isn't that bad a job. If you can keep Seattle kids home and steal some Cali recruits, you're in a decent spot talent wise. Not a high pressure job, as evidenced by Romar's recent results not leading to being fired.

Romar is the Jeff Fisher of the Pac. Rarely bad, rarely that good. Always showing enough to stay employed, but not a whole lot more.

I agree. Would be hard for UW to ever become an Arizona or UCLA...but it can easily vie with oregon to be the 3rd best job in the conference. If they just recruit Seattle and Portland and Northern California well, that's enough to be very talented right there.

Beachcat97 · Post by **Beachcat97** » Tue Jan 03, 2017 9:08 pm

Pre-Lute, AZ was not a premier program. So while Lute Olsons are rare, they do come along every so often. If a guy like that came to UW or Cal or USC, we could see a third elite Pac program emerge. OR is flirting with it right now. Will Altman stay there, though? Or will we leave for a better job when it arises?

Agree with these posts. In addition, Seattle lost its NBA franchise, which should help boost interest in the college team. Can't fathom why Oregon would be good but not Washington. Just need the right hire.

You could be right, I just see the guys they bring, the top level guys, going there because of Romar moreso than it being Washington basketball or being close to home. Fultz, Pondexter, Ross, Wilcox, Holiday, Chriss are six NBA guys outside of that state, and I guess we will never know how much of staying home vs Romar himself led to the decisions of Robinson, Thomas, Roy, and Murray.

I am surprised no one is watching the UCLA/Utah game. It's one of the best conference games of the season. Utah is a good team. Not as good as UCLA but making it a game at home. You have the big 3 at the top of the conference and then Utah sits alone in 4th. Fun game to watch. Oh...and Lonzo Ball is good.

Gotta think he does a stint in the NBA as an assistant coach. He'd make a heck of a assistant coach/recruiter on another team in college

I feel like college ball is his wheelhouse. Not sure what he really brings to an NBA team. He's a relationship guy, but not known especially for Xs & Os. So unless someone like Popovich gives him a spot as a goodwill gesture I would think he stays in the NCAA.

Eh, Quin Snyder managed to coach an NBA team, anything is possible.
