We should blow them out but if someone or two suddenly gets hot for them it could be a long night. They are a different team this year but that's basically what happened at home last year.
I agree it shouldn’t be a difficult task. All of the other games they won were because the other team couldn’t match up with their big. I will be extremely surprised if that happened tomorrow… I’m closer to 90%, but stranger things have happened.. We would have to have an extremely poor shooting night against the zone.. Come to think of it shooting have been the best lately.. Maybe your right 75-80%🤣
Hopkins has to be at the end of the road unless they simply can't pay him to go away. Assuming the players are still listening you never know until what should happen happens.
I started in my thoughts at 85% and then remembered our offensive droughts and moved the number down. 😀
I agree on Hopkins. I would think Cohen would have a hot seat too, given the Lake and Hopkins troubles.
Who predicted that those vaccinated when the vaccines were first available that we'd have this problem months later? I don't recall seeing this as part of the narrative back in Jan/Feb but perhaps I missed it.
Anyway, teams are going to be fighting this issue for the coming weeks...until a new variant arises. It is a mess.
By the way, scheduling of a rivalry game in the middle of a long holiday is not a good idea (I assume the Pac12 did this?)...so if they can reschedule than this is not a bad thing.
When vaccines rolled out… probably no one. When people weren’t vaxed by June I foresaw it . I was surprised when we got all are football games in.
That's my point. No one saw it. Fyi...the vaxxed are getting covid...but you may not know that. Millions of vaxxed are getting covid and will continue to get it.
I’ve been in Pullman since Monday. My son is working as an RA through the break. From a student attendance standpoint, this is a blessing. Place is a morgue.
Correct, I didn’t see only 55% of people getting vaxed. But in June I said it would happen. As I told my kids early December be prepared to go online learning . That is around the corner .
No. You didn't see that millions who got the jab would get covid later. If I'm wrong, show me your post from last February that stated that. I'll wait...
New York has the 6th highest fully vaccinated rate in the US (source: Mayo Clinic) and the 6th highest number of deaths per million citizens (source: Worldometer). Did you know that?
This virus and its impact is much more complex than you believe.
Big trip to the Mountain schools next weekend. Spanking uw would have been a nice confidence builder so getting at least a split in gyms we have played poorly in will be a big ask.
Especially when all available options aren’t being presented for consideration.
What part do you not understand How. I said in June I made that comment when it was clear there was a political issue with the vaccine .
if I had known 40% plus of ten people would resist getting the vaccine I would have made the comment in February . But please wait .
Sorry, Jourdand. It isn't enough that the covid arguments hijack nearly all threads on the football message board. They have to find their way to basketball discussion, too.
Glad Cougar

It is never a good idea to force people into injecting things into their body against their will...especially when their risk of dying from a virus is essentially zero.

My apologies guys. I just found it worth mentioning that no one anticipated this issue when the vaccines rolled out back in Jan/Feb for those who got the jab. It's disappointing.
No one thought that more would die from covid in 2021 vs 2020 either.
I'll try to refrain unless Ed keeps this going.
Happy New Year!

The mortality rate fluctuates between about .10% of 1% to about .20 to about .30% of 1% for the majority that are at almost no to less risk.
For those at higher risk, like Elderly, cancer patients, etc, the risk is very much higher, can, probably should be vaccinated.
Basically like the Flu. About 33 to 39k per year have died in the past of the Flu because they were elderly, etc, who didnt vaccinate. Covid is just like that.
I and others have told Ed, etc, this.
Ed's Response is that the Hospitals are overflowing EVERYWHERE, with Covid patients, despite Davenport, WA hospital being OPEN, EMPTY, and Sacred Heart having 2,3,4,5,6,7 Open ICU/Rooms.
But Ed doesn't care, he still wants to force a one size fits all solution, force vaccinate everybody, and that if you don't vaccinate then no medical care for you, even tho the Hospitalization rate is extremely low, even tho between Some and Semi MOST Hospitals are NOT overwhelmed, overflowing, even tho med tents can easily be pitched, because he lives in a EXTREMELY BIG city, where the hospital is one of the few overwhelmed, overflowing.
ED is one of those that tries to force a square peg into a round hole.
As Mr Spock would say it's illogical to waste time telling ED these FACTS, etc, because Ed is semi illogical, or doesn't have good reading comprehension, or doesn't care, close minded, won't listen to, study, research the facts,etc, given him, is a BRICK WALL.
Insanity is doing the same things and expecting different results.
Therefore it's pointless, waste of time pointing out these things to ED and others.
All that can be done is to hopefully show up better at the polls and out vote them.

More didn't die each year.
2019/2020: About 600k Dead, about 200 million cases, about a .75% of 1% mortality rate
Better treatment, recognition, etc, then
2020/2021: About 165k dead, about 250 cases. About a .39% of 1% mortality rate.
2021/2022: About 80k dead, about 275 million cases, about a.20% of 1% mortality rate.
2022/2023: Projected, on track for about 40k dead, About a .10% of 1% Mortality Rate.
A lot less are dying each year, vs more cases each year.
Just pointing out the TRUTH.
Mik...I'm referring to this (US deaths):
U.S. Covid-19 Deaths For 2021 Surpass Toll From 2020
The country reported 352,000 deaths since the start of 2021, 1,000 more than were reported in 2020.

2020 deaths didnt really start to accumulate until April of 2020 but in 2021 we have a vaccine so what gives. To me it seemed that symptoms were worse for people who contracted the Delta variant vs the original strain so possibly explains the death rate not going down as much as you’d expect with vaccinations (and the fact that such a high % of deaths were non vaxxed ). What’s really troubling is the next variant after Omicron. Will it be as (or more) contagious as omicron and as severe (or more so) then Delta?
One counterpoint is that article is from early October, so that counteracts your point about early 2020 where the deaths didn't really become a thing until April.
Agree on your point to finish your post.
What I have been reminded of is that viruses are gonna virus despite our attempts to stop them. The data analysis on covid is complex and multi-faceted.
