University of Washington is cutting both their men's and women's swimming programs. I hope that the people who do their Masters training there aren't affected. Usually, it's the men's program that gets cut. But, here, they cut both of the swimming programs.

The Seattle news (KOMO) quoted the athletic department as saying the main reason was the lack of sales of football tickets. The lack of football tickets sales is clearly the result of a history of recruiting incompendency...such as
1. recruiting a dumbo quarterback in jake locker, while turning thumbs down on the kid from Prosser who is now a All American with Boise State (and wanted to play for UW).
2. recruiting the ghetto busters from LA that USC or UCLA rejected as probable jailbait and usually end up in King County jail.
3. being politically correct hiring a washed up minority coach from the worst football program in the United States -Notre Dame...and then keeping him for five years so as to continue to be sensitive to minorities in Seattle.
4. letting Rick Neuhesel go because he wouldn't stand in line to bang tainted AD Barbara Hedges. i guess too many of the LA ghetto busters in front.
Neuhesel was an absolute idiot. UW has had more than its fair share of problems however: www.seattlepi.com/.../155993_hedges09ww.html
