I thought it would be interesting to take a walk through some Washington Husky message boards to see what the talk of the day is. Certainly it’s all about Terrence Jones, but is it good or bad? Going into this I am thinking that it’s going to be ugly. Let’s take a walk and see what we can find.[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]
Our first stop finds us at [URL=”http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=147&f=1081&t=5962397″]dawgman.com[/URL] where a poster says “what an idiot” after posting a link to an ESPN post about the saga. However in another thread on the same website approximately 65% of a small sampling said they would gladly accept Jones back to Washington if he changed his mind again.
The next stop is at the the Rivals boards. Strangely, there’s not much other there is Huskyville… Anyway at Rivals we find threads that are started by UofL fans to [URL=”http://washington.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fid=2347&tid=133628792&mid=133628792&sid=881&style=2″]bash Coach Cal[/URL] that turn into UK vs. UofL wars. We also see a handful of threads started by UK fans to spark some discussion (or flat out rub it in) yet there are no signs of UW fans there. At all.
The last stop brings us back to NOB. There aren’t any other UW forums out there that have any real visitors. Is the fan base at Washington that non-existent? A couple of threads on one board and nothing from a UW fan on the other that we visited; that could be one reason why TJ decided to switch. I’m just saying… Nothing like the fan base in Big Blue Nation!
