NIL Data

Speaking of NIL. NCAA making some changes:

Pac12 G5, Transfer, and NIL changes

Well that seals PAC 2/X, WSU, OSU fate.

According to the NCAA, even if PAC 2/X were to get BSU, Fresno St, SDSU, UNLV, Airforce, Memphis, Tulane, Cal, and even if teams like Utah, ASU, came back, and even if got teams like Iowa St, Vandy, Northwestern, etc, and even if Boston College, ACC left overs were to join, and even if got SMU, etc, even if all that happened the NCAA, article is saying that almost no matter what the PAC 12 will NOT be allowed to be a Power 5, autonomy, voting conference again., NO MATTER WHO PAC 12 GOT, even if OHIO ST joined PAC 12.

And that seals PAC 12 fate because Iowa St, Vandy, Northwestern, SMU, ACC leftovers, Memphis, Tulane, USF, UTSA, Utah, ASU, SDSU, Fresno St, BSU, etc, probably won't join a PAC 12, unless there hope that someday PAC X could get at least semi power conference, semi autonomy, semi voting, etc, back, in the future.

But no hope of that now.

I think the reason this happened was because of Schultz the PAC voting rep, blocked what the CFP, NCAA, MEDIA, POWER BROKERS, wanted to do, so they said "Fine, we'll make sure that never happens again".

And because they don't want the PAC 12 rebuilt and instead want either the Super league, or just the Big 10, SEC, etc, or NFL lite break away, etc.

I thought that the PAC 12 would be allowed to rebuild into a semi power 5, semi autonomic, semi voting, IF that happened, as part of the deal with NCAA, CFP, etc, that had until 2026 to rebuild it to that level.

But nope, they in a way kinda, sorta, went back on the spirit, intent of their word, deal, etc, and yanked the rug right out from underneath the PAC 12/2/X, WSU, OSU.

Only best option to do, hope for now, is to have Schultz approach Gloria, and say "IF 9 teams vote to dissolve the MWC, the PAC can get those teams without penalty. The PAC has contacted the following top 9 MWC teams. The PAC has promised, signed a contractual agreement to take all 9 teams if they vote to dissolve MWC, and leave the bottom 3 behind. Gloria, the PAC would like you to be it's new commissioner, but only of you facilitate this. If you fight this, the PAC will either do this or try to do this, and you will be left stranded without a conference, job, etc."

A 9 MWC team merger is consisting of BSU, SDSU, Fresno St, UNLV, Airforce, Utah St, CSU, Wyoming, and 1 other MWC team that the 9th best, whoever the heck that is, is now the best the PAC can probably hope for.

Thanks NCAA, powers that be A holes.

Have you moved on to pretending the cougs have never had any shitty people on their team?

You really don't have to go back very far.
As of 4/24/2024 at 10:40 in the morning, I have NEVER seen or heard anyone claim that WSU has never had players commit crimes, act with bad behavior, always be choir boys. There are bad people in every large group that you can identify. Cops. Priests. Teachers. Ministers. Counselors. Politicians. Attorneys. Professors. Neighbors. Family members and relatives. See where I am going with this? So obviously there has been some bad apples roll through Pullman. Here is the difference- in general our bad apples were punished, weeded out, made examples of so others would not repeat those actions. And in general the local police in Pullman seemed to take delight in finding athletes to take down where in Seattle the local PD worked in tandem with corrupt DA Norm Maleng to cover up crimes, plead them down, dismiss them altogether, etc. Free legal fees from the Tyee attorney that probably had an office right next to the mutts head coach. Yes, the Cougars had some guys come through their programs that all of us wish had never showed their face in Whitman County, but meanwhile the mutts seemed to try to corner the market on assholes with football or basketball talent.

Just to refresh YOUR mind, here is a non-comprehensive list of uw model citizens for you (and it is out of date, hasn't been updated in quite a while:

Size limit forces me to post the response in multiples. Sorry...



Now, why don't you go back to your own little slimey corner of the internet (muttman.com) and join their circle jerk. Coming over here to rub salt in our wounds just demonstrates what a miserable, small man you are.

I discovered this Word document that I had in my files while searching for a different document. I thought it would be a good time to share it with the rest of you Cougs. I think it was originally posted on one of the Cougar websites, not sure which one now. I added a couple items at the end relative to points made in the narrative. Not sure when it was originally written, but my saved document was dated 2013.




Why We Hate the University of Washington


Virtually every major sports team has a rival. Most of the time, the basis for these rivalries is mere geometric proximity or a particular historical event. For some fans on both sides of the Apple Cup line, the rivalry starts and ends there: it’s just a game between cross-state rivals with a long history.

But for some WSU fans it goes a little deeper than that. They hate the University of Washington. They hate their coaches. They hate their former coaches. They hate their administrators. They hate their fight song. They hate their colors. They hate their admissions department. They hate their budget office. They even hate their museum if you can believe it. They loathe the basic premise, philosophy, and modus operandi of the institution.

In a different situation, such disdain might be misplaced. But in the case of the University of Washington, the school seems to do everything possible to earn this ire.

The origins of the diametric differences between WSU and UW can be traced the to the shear bipolar makeup of the State of Washington itself. Whether you are talking political, economic, ecological, or geological composition; eastern and western Washington could not be more contradictory. In that light, it was surely inevitable that the two halves would go on to house rival academic institutions.

But the differences have grown well beyond that original framework.

Washington State University, a land grant institution built in the middle of nowhere (even by Eastern Washington standards) was charged with educating the masses. It has functioned ever since out of an emphasis on necessity.

The University of Washington, which exists today on one of the most expensive pieces of property in the state, was founded in order to boost the prestige of the town of Seattle and educate the sons of the local elite. It has functioned from the very beginning on an emphasis of prestige. Though it bears no geographic relationship to the original school campus founded in 1861, which closed its doors three times without graduating a single student through 1876, the UW still clings to this older date for the sole purpose boosting its legacy as being “the oldest public institution of higher learning west of the Mississippi.”

Few public institutions encompass a greater air of aristocracy than the UW. In that light, it is no accident that in 1892, when the students faced with the choice of its school colors being red, white and blue (the colors of George Washington's flag); or purple and gold (the colors of royalty), they overwhelmingly voted in favor of the latter. Likewise it is entirely appropriate that the school song would later become, "Bow Down to Washington." From the earliest days, the UW clung to a blue-blood mentality and little has changed.

Today University of Washington is the largest recipient of federal subsidy for its research of any public university, a distinction it has held since 1974. The school wears this distinction with pride as a symbol of the quality of researchers it has, but the academic community grumbles that it is more sign of a school who has learned how to exploit the system and is more concerned with the grant writing potential of its professors than their teaching ability.

The UW’s tendency towards entitlement and greed has been on display more clearly over the past few years.

In 2004, the UW medical school spent $25 million in legal fees to defend hundreds of members of its staff in the largest Medicare fraud case in U.S. academic history. It paid the federal government a settlement of $35 million for running a “criminal enterprise,” of overbilling, with a “conscious and deliberate decision to ignore the facts before them.” A professor, who was previously been brought on sanctions for allowing his students to see tightly guarded test booklets for national medical exams, was found guilty of obstruction of justice and for creating an “atmosphere of fear and intimidation” within his department. Rather than terminating this professor with ample cause, the university paid him $3.7 million to retire.

In 2005, a peer-conducted investigation of prestigious paleontology collections at the UW’s Burke Museum of Natural History, concluded nearly all of the fossil specimens had been collected illegally from federal lands without permits. Of greater concern was the fact that no field research notes were kept by UW professors or students, with the exception of a few “torn pieces of brown paper bags.” The only maps kept were little more than pencil dots on road maps, of “unusable scale, outdated, or unrelated to any known collecting areas,“ and unusable for any research purposes. What data was collected was found to have “errors not within a reasonable margin of error.” With suggested recorded collection points were many miles off from any probable locations. One particular fossil, which “if its presumed stratigraphic occurrence is correct,” is the “last fossil primate known in North America, placed the locality on a highway in Oregon.” The study concluded that “fossil collection in the Burke Museum cannot be relied upon for its accuracy or its precision,” was collected and recorded with “a disregard for completeness and accuracy, either though carelessness or deliberate falsification,” and that “their significance to modern paleontology may have been drastically and perhaps irretrievably reduced.” In other words, the UW has an ill-gotten multi-million dollar dinosaur trophy room, and destroyed it academic value in the acquisition of it.

This past year the UW announced that in order to boost revenues, it will be admitting fewer in-state students. The UW desires the higher out-of-state tuition rates (even at reduced academic admittance requirements) over educating the more qualified Washington residents. WSU announced it will admit more in-state freshmen to help cover the gap. In Olympia, UW student lobbyists argued with legislators to raise their tuition rates to boost revenues for their school. WSU student lobbyists (along with the other 4 public universities) argued for lower tuition rates to help financially struggling students.
 
Why We Hate the University of Washington
Then there is the athletic department, who’s ethical track record over the past 30 years is almost beyond belief.

October 1985: Former UW player Michael Kay Green is arrested after a two-month spree in which he attacked nine women. He is convicted of several robbery charges, rape at knifepoint, abduction, and murder charges. He blames addiction to steroids from his time at UW for his violence.

May 1987: UW running back Trevin Moore is arrested in connection with the knifing and robbery of a Seattle woman, and is also convicted in three other attacks on Seattle women. He is given an “exceptionally light sentence of one year,” according to the Seattle Times.

December 1987: UW linebacker Jay Roberts is one of three men participating in a rape at a Seattle apartment. One of the men is convicted but Roberts is released after a retrial when the victim refused to testify.

May 1987: UW star Reggie Rogers is charged with a gross misdemeanor assault on his former girlfriend. The following year he would kill three people in Michigan while drunk driving.

February 1993: UW football player Michael Darrow receives a deferred sentence for assault on a 13 year old girl.

August 1993: The Pac-10 penalizes UW football for a scheme involving paying players for summer jobs they do not attend. Don James resigns in protest. Quitter!

October 1993: UW wide receiver Jason Shelley is expelled after being arrested in Eugene, Oregon for breaking into an UO dorm and raping an 18 year old. UW football player Doug Barnes and basketball player Prentiss Perkins are also charged. The charges are later reduced to third degree sexual abuse, a misdemeanor.

1996: Police respond on five separate occasions to calls of domestic violence at the home of UW football player Curtis Williams. One of those times Williams is charged with misdemeanor assault. The final time he is arrested again for misdemeanor assault the police note a puddle of blood in the bedroom and his wife was badly beaten. The wife had previously suffered a broken arm while she was pregnant and later acknowledges Williams was responsible. Charges were dropped in lieu of counseling, which he never attends. Four days later the wife calls the police again saying he had choked her and cut her face with his keys.

September 1997: Williams is convicted of 3rd degree assault and sentenced to time served.

December 1997: Williams is breaks a no contact order and arrested for a fifth time for domestic violence. His wife says he threatened to kill her if she left him.

October 2000: Multiple witnesses identify Jerramy Stevens, his truck, and its license plate in a hit and run on a vehicle with multiple children inside.

October 2000: King County prosecutor Maleng drops rape charges against Jerramy Stevens despite victim testimony, eyewitness testimony, and DNA match to semen in her anus and vagina. The victim was determined to be an uncredible witness because she was either drugged or drunk at the time.

October 2000: Stevens is cited for speeding in the hit and run case and receives a $119 ticket.

December 2000: Jeremiah Pharms’ neighbor contacts police about concerns over the pitbulls he is raising in his back yard, the bloody rags everywhere, and the lack of food and water for them. Police take some of the dogs to a shelter where they are described as “all bony” and with heavy chains and padlocks around their necks and having been drinking from a gutter drain. He is written up for having unlicensed dogs and more dogs than allowed. Pharms never returns for the dogs after the Rose Bowl.

June 2011: UW basketball player Venoy Overton is arrested for promoting prostitution (pimping).

This is not just another rivalry. Washington State University, its alumni, and athletic fans have legitimate beefs with the University of Washington that go beyond the traditional rivalry metrics. They don’t like their philosophy and they don’t like the way they do business. To the degree that the rivalry is lopsided is in that regard is of little concern.

This is not another example of the poor school envying the rich school. It’s a loathing of a rich school’s refusal to live within its means, and furthermore, seeking out supplemental ill-gotten loot from the public.

This is not another example of the remedial school resenting the smart kid school. It’s a loathing of an academic institution who values its prestige over its duty to educate its own citizens.

This is not another small football program bitter at getting beat by the bigger one. It’s a loathing of an athletic department endowed with every single economic, numerical, and regulatory advantage still opting to cheat to get an edge.

This is not an administration admonishing the warts and troublemakers of its rival, while blatantly ignoring its own. It’s a loathing of an institution which has repeatedly breached serious ethical boundaries; and beyond merely covering them up, has excused and even encouraged major federal crimes of its teachers and students while keeping them above the law.

This is why, if our small, slow, weak, undertrained, and underequipped army of courageous young football players manages to kick the snot out of the University of Washington this Saturday, it will be with a personal level of satisfaction the likes of which a Husky fan will never know.

For we bow down to Washington....but only so we can spit on their shoes.

Hope Solo/Jeremy Stevens domestic violence arrest on their wedding day.

I think the author forgot about Jason Shelley and a couple other mutts getting arrested for sexual assault, and a uw TE that assaulted a campus cop. Also George Juggem's murder.

And now we can add the complete annihilation of the PAC 12 Conference to the university of washington’s miserable record of greed, cheating, and contempt all rules and anyone outside of their own little incestuous cult.

A couple notes to points within this narrative. The little girl that miserable bastard Michael Green assaulted and killed happened to be a student of my wife, and we spent many days out searching for her body. He is a genuine piece of scum!

Desmond Trufant came to one of our Pierce County Cougar Club meetings with older brother Marcus. One of our attendees started to ask Desmond about whether or not he would be following his older brother to WSU to play football. A couple of us immediately jumped in to stop that before Desmond could think about answering, telling the guy that we were not allowed to discuss such things with potential student athletes. Of course, Desmond was influenced by the bling of the Seahawks and huskies (probably also Tyee Club coffee cup filled with cash) and signed with the mutts.

Think about the contempt and bloated egos that inhabit that mistake by the lake that permitted them to do everything they could to sabotage the efforts of WSU to establish a medical school. Miserable MF'ers!!! I am so very proud of my niece, charted member of the Elson Floyd School of Medicine, a member of the very first graduating class!

You really don't have to go back very far.
I’ve moved on to realize you’ve never attended a college and that you carry an incredible emotional deficiency.

T’s and P’s
 
You obviously weren't or haven't been on this site. Which is actually a great idea, so fck off back to whatever hole you crawled out of.
Your misery makes it far more likely that I will stop by every once in a while. That and to check in on what the latest dream conference ideas are coming out of old folks home.

Our coaches and administration have been pretty good as removing them from the team.

See the difference?
