Congratulations to former University of Washington coach Jimmy Lake for bringing in all that talent to the Huskies.

As an Alabama fan, I can only hope Nick Saban is able to match the great efforts of Jimmy Lake.

I guess if it makes you feel better to say it that way, that's fine

Jimmy Lake

Must be the next CFB GOAT, no?

Imagine being fired with such a keen eye for talent and watching a real coach take that talent to a CFP NCG.

So Penix was just a natural talent that only needed to be coaxed into transferring I guess

Yes, Jimmy Lake should not get credit for that

2015: #26
2016: #29
2017: #22
2018: #16

Lake
2020: #16
2021: #30

Deboer
2022: #95
2023: #26

So we agree that the main reason for Washington's success these last two years doesn't belong to Jimmy Lake? Good.

That's cool. Kinda goes to show how incredible it's gonna be given he has something to recruit to now considering he currently has the 7th ranked recruiting class with only 10 recruits.

Reminds me of when Saban went from Michigan State to LSU.
Kalen and Alabama is the right combination like Saban and LSU was.

Agreed

Kalen DuBose took Peterson's and Lake's talent and did an admiral job holding things together

This is a good post by you

We are basically in agreement


Lake's talent was there, and DuBose did a good job with it

I like Kalen
