I didn't become a Dawg fan until the post-Don-James-era, so it really shocks me how many old school Husky fans really expect that we will be able to find the magic coach and suddenly become USC north. I would be satisfied with stocking the talent to make a Pac-10 championship run every 4 or so years, as long as the in-between years don't slip much below .500. I'm sure I'll be cursed for "low" expectations.

Boy, you couldn't be more right on virtually every point. The only thing I'd say is that I think there is some talent on this team and someone with half a brain could get a lot more out of it than Ty has, but that's not enough to lure a guy away from football heaven (LSU and the South) to Seattle. I think we need to face facts that the greatness of Husky football was Don James. He was a once in a lifetime coach that turned the UW into a national powerhouse and it will take a miracle to ever return to that glory.
