Well we had a week to find the best moose pictures out there.
What do you expect?
Moos should consider this fundraising ploy.

Five year deal
More on Moos…We’ve learned that it’s a five-year deal and he will start on May 1st.
And yes, I’m super unhappy that KJR is getting this scoop
Yeah it's gross.

I see your 4 seed and raise you a 3 seed.
But the 4 seed year had a better result, so who knows.

Salary is 600k per year
According to kjr. That is crazy. Has anyone ever heard of an AD making that much?
by DrayCox on Feb 23, 2010 11:56 AM PST via mobile reply actions
Yes
He made that at Oregon. And I believe I just won the betting pool with 5 years at 600k per

I guess I’m just accustomed to WSU going the cheap route. Sterk was making 200k right?
by DrayCox on Feb 23, 2010 12:00 PM PST via mobile up reply actions
About 300 this last year.
Considering the buyout money he would’ve made not to work, this seemed right about where the price would land.
by Brian Floyd on Feb 23, 2010 12:01 PM PST up reply actions
Food for thought
He’s taking the job on May 1st. If he wasn’t able to figure out some sort of settlement, this could be a way to squeeze an extra 200k out of Oregon.
Interesting point.
Or maybe he is going to go on an awesome vacation. Squeezing money out of WSU donors will be a difficult task.

So how's he doing on that checklist?
Has he fired Wulff?
Has he got WSU a killer TV deal?
Has he locked up Bone with a 3 million dollar buyout?
Well he doesn't start until May 1st.
Give the man some time!

I'm also not comfortable with a 3 million dollar buyout.
Let’s make it impossible and unrealistic. Eleventy Billion?

I had a lady come in to my elementary class to explain what a google was
This was before google was a search engine
I dont know how but I knew that it was as well in elementary school.
Also a google-plex (1 followed by 1000 zero’s)

It's alright.
It was just the easiest way for me to communicate with you. I probably could have emailed or facebooked you. Just chalk it up to laziness on my part.

Moos first act as AD
should be to ban the term “coug it”. It is said that we are known for blowing games and to change that mindset I think the term needs to go. I think we should ban it on this site as well. Changing the culture means changing attitudes.

And bring back
the term Wazzu after Rawlins tried to get rid of it.

I can't remember anyone
using it on here either and that is because we are good cougs. It’s the band wagon group and other teams fans such as Huskies and Zags that use it the most.

Um, anyone who uses that term on this site gets a terse message
And it’s not a nice, terse message. Been that way for a while.
Whenever anyone says it, I instantly want to punch them in the face
I’m not exaggerating. Nick Daschel can tell you about that …
I was going to make a joke about it,
but I think I will abstain, at the risk of being (virtually) punched.
by spencer peaty on Feb 23, 2010 6:32 PM PST up reply actions
Nuss might track you down
and (literally) punch you.
I feel like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football. Ugh
It's true.
I’ve seen Nuss’ reaction. It’s not pretty, but very appropriate and necessary. I actually have punched someone for saying it. Not very hard, but still…
HAPPY DAY!!!!
Been on the road since 8am, I get into my hotel room, check CougCenter and my day just became perfect. AWESOME HIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
